I was thinking about what I used to be scared of because of Giffy's Little Fears entry. Then I was talking to my workmate about Steven King and I mentioned that I would never read It because I used to have a pathological fear of clowns.
Now that I'm mostly over my clown fear (or coulrophobia) I find it fun to look at people's web galleries of scary clowns. Man, there's a lot of people out there just like me who hate clowns.
I personally endorse the 'am I scary or not' page and the awesome merchandise. I must have one of those "can't sleep clowns will eat me" hoodies.
I was also scared of Santa, but let's face it, you don't really want to encourage kids to sit on strange men's laps, whisper things in their ears and accept candy off them, right?
There's something creepy about tattered old animal costumes too.
