The Grim Reaper. Something about the black void in lieu of a face and the big black cloak did it for me. I blame seeing Scrooged as a kid for that one.

The "Return the slaaaaaab" episode of Courage. :stonk:

The cover to Super Castlevania IV, especially the medusa head.

Ladders. I can't even begin to explain this one, I just hated (and still kinda do) going up ladders.

This talk about whales reminds me of a display in the Milwaukee Public Museum, a giant whale skeleton that was the bane of my early years.



I remember the first time I saw it, I was watching the stairs to see where I was stepping, and when we hit a flat area, I looked up to see where we were heading just to see that big rear end thing floating right above me. Holy poo poo was I terrified, and for years I didn't want to go back.

scary tree story

This reminds me of when I was a kid, and a friend and I used to watch kung-fu movies and then take broomsticks and 'train' on trees in his back lot. One day we went out to the back forty and found this really old, decrepit tree and he challenged me to whack it as hard as I could, which I did. Nothing happened, so I gave it another shot and the thing split in half, showing that it was pretty much entirely hollowed out and contained a gigantic wasp nest.

I've never had a terror run like that ever again, and by the time we got back you could still see the giant swarm of wasps from the other end of the lot. Cue an unreasonable terror of dead trees for the next ten years.
