ITT: Things that traumatized you as a child

Hated Caterpillars too. :eek:
 
Freddy Krueger scared the shit out of me as a child. I couldn't even enter Toys R US because of the Freddy dolls they had right at front as soon as you entered the store.
 
I saw one of those goosebumps tv shows about the ventriloquist doll that wouldn't die, had nightmares for weeks

Holy crap I was just about to post that! Night of the Living Dummies gave me regular nightmares for over a year.
 
i almost drowned at a water-park when i was a kid.

i can swim, but i still don't like getting into the water much.
 
When I was a kid I barely ever saw anything violent on TV or in movies until one time I was over my cousin's house and walked inside and saw someone's head being cutoff with a switchblade. That scene made me very sick to my stomach and gave me a very queasy and uncomfortable feeling whenever I thought about it after that. The guy having his head cut off was still making facial expressions and screaming. Gross movie whatever that was.

Oh, and I caught the black and white version of Night of the Living Dead at a very young age as well. Warped my mind.
 
Pennywise has always scared the shit out of me.

I saw American History X in like 3rd grade, and I couldn't get over the curb-stomping for weeks. The racial aspect only made it more disturbing for my 9 year old brain.

Ironically my friend and I were talking about american history x.The part that disturbed me was the shower scene.That scared the ish outta me and I haven't watched that movie since.
 
Two movies I watched when I was WAY too young to be viewing them.

Pink Floyd's "The Wall"
Jacob's Ladder

Haven't ever watched them since and I avoid them like murder scenes. Perhaps I should rewatch them in order to lay the issue to rest.
 
Apart from some serious family stuff, the fucking Boogieman from the Ghostbusters TV series scared the shit out of me (starts at 5:40)



I mean Ghostbusters was a fun show for kids back then but this was some serious psycho shit I hadn't expected...


This, can't believe anyone else even remembers it. This and Thriller
 
Clowns(especially after seeing It) and nearly drowning.
 
I was 6 brushing my teeth when my pops walked outta the shower with his hog waving around like an elephant trunk. That shit was the size of my whole upper arm. I remember thinking that it must be impossible to lead a normal life with something like that in your pants.

When I was 7 my older brothers invited me to go watch "Saved by the Bell" with them at their friends house. This wasnt the Saved by the bell we all know and loved. This was a knock off porn. Zack was a lonely virgin and Kelly was his slutty older sister. She bangs the shit outta him and he completely glazes her face. This was my first porn I had ever seen and I thought it was real. I could never watch the real show the same again.

When one of my older brothers got a paintball gun he decided to tie me to the trampoline. He shot me about 20 times from 15 feet away. My parents werent home and he threatened to kill me if I ever told on him.

I saw my best friends nephew spill half his brain out in front of me when our rope swing broke. It was my turn but we dared him to do it cause he was a few years younger. He is permanently disabled now and it still bothers me to this day.

I saw my dad whoop another parents ass at my brothers little league game. My pops was the coach and this kids dad was a drunk and talked shit and cursed at all the kids. After my dad warned him he kept it up and eventually slapped his own kid outta anger. My dad calmly walked outta the dugout, Ko'd him and dragged him to the bathroom to where all you could hear was this dudes heads getting pummeled. The cops and ambulance came and all the parents told them the father hit the son and my dad was protecting the kids. This was the 80's so all the cops did was tell my dad to be a little more discreet next time. Seeing my pops do that fucked with my head for some reason.

When I was 4 I fell into my Aunts pool during a family party. Nobody saw me fall in cause I squeezed through a gate. My oldest bro found me face down and unresponsive. He gave me CPR and I eventually came to. Weird thing is my family never talks about it but I remember it like it was yesterday. That same brother years later held me upside down by one foot off the side of a 5 story parking structure at The Frontier in Las Vegas. He thought it was funny, I thought I was gonna die.
 
Chucky although I never watched the movie as a child, I just watched a TV spot once, nevertheless the damage was done.

So... when's your killing spree scheduled?
 
When I was around 14 there was a program on TV where they interviewed pornstars, and one of them talked about a scene where he did anal sex with a sixty-something year old and his dick came out covered in faeces.

Ever since then the idea of putting it in the butt has disgusted me.
