    Text - t 106 Jim Smallman 825 @jimsmallman Mar 2 WEIRD FEARS Let's share ours. Mine: hotel corridors with hanging light fittings. As a kid saw a tv show about poltergeists where they showed a corridor with lights swinging by themselves. In any similar corridor now, I run out of terror.

    Text - t 40 Jim Smallman 456 @jimsmallman Mar 2 ALSO In the first house I remember living in, my parents had a painting of a woman playing the lute. I frequently had nightmares about that painting. I swear the eyes followed me.

    Text - t 46 theo jones 372 @Bejiones99 Mar 2 Replying to @jimsmallman I have a crippling fear of goofy the dog. Cant explain it, have had recurring nightmares over it and was so scared when seeing a costume in disneyland paris that I had to calm down for like 30 minutes.

    Text - 397 Wendy 1.8K @WendyFNP Mar 2 Replying to@jimsmallman Can't sleep with the closet door open. Logically, I know there's nothing in there. I also don't want to wake up at 3 am and see glowing eyeballs

    Text - t80 Shannon Swezey 826 @wrasslesassle Mar 2 Replying to@jimsmallman As a kid, my grandma always used to tell me that if I stayed in the bath as it drained, my soul would get sucked through along with the water. Still wary over it.

    Text - t 27 Hollie 258 @holliecopas Mar 3 Replying to@holliecopas @jimsmallman Also, eggs is my 'weird' fear. The look, the feel of the shell, the smell... and if you think about what it REALLY is too touch them, let alone eat them I can't

    Text - t 45 426 Max Olesker @maxolesker Mar 2 Replying to @jimsmallman Throughout my childhood, for some as-yet-unearthed-by- therapy reason, my phobia was specifically this; being trapped in a lift. And then stabbed in the back with a machete. By Uma Thurman. I cannot emphasise how terrified this scenario made me feel.
