The Scariest Thing

Since Halloween is coming up in a couple of days, I thought I’d do a fun post I saw on Ashley’s blog (Cup of Ash Tea) the other day.  It’s kind of a “get to you know” survey, but with a scary twist for Halloween.

Scariest real life experience?

I'm not sure what my scariest real life experience would be.  I guess I should be thankful that I can't think of one!  

Scariest paranormal experience?

I've never really had a paranormal experience.  Although, one night a couple months ago, my husband woke me up in the middle of the night and asked me if I had turned our living room light on.  I of course said, no and he swore he turned it off before he came to bed.  The light that was on was our ceiling fan light, which has a remote we use to turn it on and off.  He thinks it was a ghost (he watches too many ghost shows on TV) and I think it was just a short in the electrical or something like that, but who knows!

Have you ever known anyone convicted of a violent crime?

Unfortunately, yes.

Are you afraid of the dark?

Not really.  If I was alone in the dark woods then I probably would be afraid of the dark.  But I’m not afraid to be at home in the dark.

Does your hometown have any scary stories or legends?

Actually, yes!  My hometown has a lighthouse (White River Light Station) that has been known to be haunted.  It even made the list of the Top 15 Haunted Houses on Coastal Living’s site.  You can read about it here.

What is your favorite Urban Legend?

I don't have a "favorite" because I don't really like Urban Legends, but a scary one I remember hearing was about the kid that would hang is hand over his bed at night and his dog would lick it before he went to sleep...and then one night it wasn't the dog licking his hand, it was a person.  Scary.  I don't like it, I don't know why I shared it, but it was the first thing that popped in my head!

What is your scariest nightmare?

I used to always have a nightmare that my sister and I were in the car at the gas station, and while my mom was pumping gas, someone stole us.  I used to have it all the time when I was younger for some reason.  I don't have it any more, but it used to scare me!

What is your scariest experience?  Is it real life, paranormal, a nightmare, etc?
