      Destoroyah disturbed me quite a lot as a child, I already had a bit of arachnophobia so seeing these monstrous hybrids between spider crabs and demons mutilate people and becoming larger and more demonic didn’t keep me up at night but gave me a pretty deep fascination with body horror.
      Even though I had never seen real zombie media, for some reason flesh eating corpses were the most plausible monsters outside of ghost for me, so I often had trouble sleeping thinking I’d be devoured. I think that an early form of my social anxiety, I still generally feel uncomfortable around large crowds. However, unlike Destoroyah when started watching zombie media and seeing zombie toys my fear disappeared.
      The Rancor pit scene in Star Wars frightened me both the slave girl Oola being trapped and eaten, and gamorrean guard being devoured. The excellent hideous creature design and claustrophobia is really scary.
      Later on movies like Alien and The Thing scared me, I don’t like parasites and feeling unsafe in my own body.
      Also unfortunately NFTs are still around, Trump is selling them. ☹️

    Funnily enough, I recall the Chillogy pig transformation scaring me as a child as well. However, what I also remember was that it wasn’t the only “pig transformation” that scared me when I was younger.
    In spirited away, when Chihiro’s parents are turned into pigs, she sees them sitting and eating. When they turn around, as fully transformed pigs, they’re really frightening. I remember worrying the same thing would happen to my own parents lol.
    Other stuff includes more things I’m sure you’re familiar with, like the black hole aliens from Godzilla vs MechaGodzilla being revealed to be ugly ape creatures. The bizarre howling sound they make scared me.

    on the subject of Thomas the Tank Engine episodes that were genuinely nightmare-inducing as a child, I would like to contribute the following episodes to the discussion:
    - Duncan Gets Spooked - the music playing during the scene where Rusty tells the story of the ghost train gives me chills even now
    - Toby's Discovery - the scene with Toby in the yard at night... horrifying
    - Haunted Henry - pure terror from start to finish

    Great interesting video! The 1988 horror film Slugs traumatized me as an 10 year old. Seeing it as an adult, it's dumb as hell but watching a bunch of slimy critters you used to play with in the backyard as a kid eat people alive to the bone etc. is pretty horrific lol

    In the country where I was born, there's absolutely no moving rating system whatsoever, so children are allowed to watch movies that are rated R or even NC-17 without much trouble. Adults there seemed to lack common sense that children shouldn't be exposed to some of the adult content as well, so one day our teacher has decided to play us this movie called Riki-oh (in case you don't know what it is, it's a Hong Kong splatter film that was loosely adapted from a Japanese manga with the same name, featuring some of the most over the top violence and gore--decent practical effects though). Needless to say a film like this would be way too much for a 2nd grade kid like me. I remembered that the whole class just shouted to teacher that we didn't want to watch it (nobody cried surprisingly), so we stopped watching it when the movie was half-way through. For the next couple weeks however I could dream of nothing but those gory scenes from the movie, but thankfully I didn't get PTSD from it, I still enjoy all sort of movies and games with graphic contents right now, but Riki-oh holds a special place in my heart.

    The playing with trains scene should have been longer. Sure, spooky stuff and all that (I believe I was the only one to actually be scared of Ebirah's claw coming out of the water in that one storm scene in Sea Monster) but all of that pales in comparison to funny train toys with these really weird magnets that WOULD NOT GO TOGETHER OH MY GOD, anyway I'm getting distracted

    What scared me as a kid?
    "It was the worst accident I ever saw... Was a sound like a garbage truck fell off the empire state building... And when they pulled the driver from the twisted, mangled wreck... they looked like *THIS!* " [the scream of a million children]
    "Just tell 'em, Large Marge sent ya."

    I clearly remember two movies that have scarred my psyche to this very day. The original Jaws and the original Exorcist marred my childhood. The first one made me scared of taking baths, swimming in pools and going to oceans and seas. The second one made me scared to sleep with the lights off (something I still do to this day and if I do sleep, it's with a flashlight on so I at least get some light in the room).

    here's something that scared me as a kid, fraggle rock is my favorite show of all time, in the episode "The Pebble Pox Blues" boober and wembley are tasked to enter the frightening cavern known as the cave of shadows, throughout the episode it's built up as a really horrifying place and as a kid it sure delivered on that, in the cave of shadows formless shadows move about in a weird uncanny way, It was dimly lit and the shadows didn't even make any noise, it's never really revealed what these shadows are exactly anyways, this coupled with the eerie music and boober's fear made this a really scary scene as a kid, I'd be lying if i didn't say it still slightly gives me the willies to this day

    I saw "Attack of the Mushroom People" when I was about 10 or so and good grief this movie screwed me up.
    I didn't see it again until I was much older under its proper title "Matango" and - It was really good!
    I didn't get the anti-drug message when I was a little kid but it's a very powerful film, beautifully shot and it just made me feel good to confront a childhood fear and face it down.

  • @gavinhayesdinofang1276

    I too am afraid of tangible concepts as well.
    I have dreams of being back in high school and being back at my first job (which I am currently at)
    I was scared of spiders and other stuff, but all of them pale in comparison to nuclear war, which is what I'm definitely scared of.
    There are things much bigger than you and I that I am afraid of.
    International tensions have reached their breaking point, missiles are fired across the world, you can only wait for your demise as sirens that pore into your psyche go off and people riot and run in fear as the missiles approach, until everything is caught up in atomic fire, everything burning as if hell was unleashed upon the earth.
    If people say that nuclear war is scary as is the Cold War was a scary time back then, I'm taking their word for it.
    Movies like The Day After, Threads, Testament, Miracle Mile, etc., have proven that to me.
    Actually, forget that I even recommended these. Seriously, don't watch them if you value your happiness. I haven't seen them in full, but what I saw was enough to make you hope that it never happens.
    Once you see that sh!t, it will fvck you up for life.

    You know, what I found most interesting about the Goosebumps entry, was that they went out of their way to portray Karl as the closest thing the show has to a demon. Sharp-dressed man, manipulative, condemns people to ironic punishments, kingpin of his own eldritch HG 1/144 Gundam model kit (smh, not even RG)...Karl really feels like a modern take on literature's Mephistopheles when you think about it.
