When i was little my parents let me watch all the scary movies. at 5 i was watching Lepercauhn and Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday The 13th. I Was living in Portland at the time and i remembered the first time i saw Candyman. Movie with black dude with the hook for a hand. i was terrified because for once it just seemed like such a real movie, i lived in portland oregon at the time and it was the poorer neighborhood and i remember the public bathrooms just being a disgusting mess and graffitti written everywhere on the walls, and theres a scene in candyman where she goes thru a bathroom exactly like it and it just was horrifying haha.

Also IT. the steven king movie. Been scared of clowns ever since.

    Pumpkinhead - my dad had a plant shaped just like it
    Child's Play - I had a "My Buddy" doll that stayed locked up in the garage closet after watching this.
