Just in light of the spiders thread, I wondered what everyone else was terrified of and do you have any stories of coming in contact with what terrifies you?

As for me, I am terrified, no.. petrified (if that is in fact worse lol) of huntsmans and other big hairy ugly spiders. Daddy long legs I am ok with, and tiny little spiders too... but huntsmans.. eeewwww *shudders*.

I have several stories actually!

The first one relates to when I was a little girl... *cue the wavey screen. cut to picture of a girl in bed sleeping snuggley*

Anyway... there I am, sleeping away with my clock light projecting over my eyes and onto the wall at head level.

I am laying with my face facing the wall about 20 cms from it in fact, when I wake up.

And what do I see? A dirty bit bloody huntsman. I screamed so loud that Mum came running and thought I was being murdered!

My second story...

I used to live with a fella in Melb a few years ago and he was in bed one night, I was up late patrolling the net, as you do. Out of the corner of my eye I see something run across the floor.

I scream, and run and jump onto the couch, where I proceed to call out to my XBF. He comes running out in nothing but his jocks, to see this spider run along the carpert, straight towards ME on the couch!

There were plenty of places the bloody thing could have gone, so why the hell did it choose to chase me???

Oh man, I screamed and jumped over the spider, grabbed the phone on my way past and stood on a chair.

Finally XBF killed it. Meanwhile, I phoned my Mum almost hyperventaliting.

I was so scared that I stayed up until 3am, sitting on a chair in the middle of the lounge room, refusing to put my feet on the floor.

Now come on.. please tell me I am not the only one that is that sad!

SPIDERS! Especially huntsmans. The other morning i walked into the bathroom to wash my face, i had a friend over and he was in the toilet right near the bathroom. As i turned on the tap i noticed a dark thing in the corner of the ceiling so i turned around to see what it was "ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!"
I screamed so loud my friend came bolting out of the toilet to see what was wrong. I pointed into the bathroom and he went in and looked and he goes "PFFFT! Is that all? It wont hurt ya" OMG,its a huntsman! just looking at it scares the crap out of me. It stayed there for awhile cause i was too scared to go near it then a few days later it scared the crap out of one of my friends( hahaha tel!) so i got my brother to kill it. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Im also terrified of mice....ewwwwww

Rats.

I hate rats.

I am completely with Winston Smith with his opinion of rats. Horrible nasty repulsive things that would eat your face off as soon as look at you.

Ugh

*shudder*

And there are people out there who keep the vermin as PETS. EEEW

Michelle I am completely with you on the thunder and lightning. I HATE it, I know logically that thunder can't hurt me but it still scares me so much that I literally feel ill, lightning CAN kill and that scares me too. I am almost 31 years old and my DH knows full well that if there is a thunderstorm at night that I will snuggle into him and he will have to wake up to comfort me. I try very hard not to show this fear around my kids, and frankly they are not bothered with it at all. I too have been this way since I was a kid, I was the one who would jump straight under my school desk when I was little at the mere distant rumble of thunder. When I was a bit older, about 13-14 years old I would go and sleep on the floor of my parents room to be near them.
I hate hairy spiders too!! I'm okay with non-hairy ones..but the furry ones must DIE!!!!

I wouldn't say I'm terrified, but I really hate those big moths
with the eyes that glare at you! I will run screaming to get
away from them.

Oh and in a different way, I am terrified of death

Spiders.

Once when I was baout 14, there was one in the comptuer room I was playing in, on the doorframe, of all places. I dashed out quickly, grabebd the bug killer, and came back. It died alright, but took ages, and I was stuck in the room because it was almost falling down. It stuck its web to the top, and was dangling. UHG. I screamed loudly. Lots.

Another time I was even younger than that I think, and was on a picnic at a park of some sort. It had great rock islands over the creek that me and 2 friends loved to play on, at this time the creek was pretty big from recent rain, and there was a fallen tree across it we decided to use to cross. We shimmied underneath it, and had our fun. ON the way back, a spider was on my foot. It seriously had its body on my foot and its legs were meeting on the top of my foot. I SCREAMED. I didnt know what to do. I thought it would bite me if I put my foot in the water or tried to brush it off. And it CLUNG. Terrifying. They heard me at the picnic grounds and my mum and dad came running.

Not fond of c*ckroaches and grasshoppers, and I HATE toads.

I'm also terrified of something happening to a loved one.
