When were you last really scared?We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.
I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.
When were you last really scared?

Backyard bogie menMy friend and I decide to 'vist' (scare the shit out of) a girlfriend who is home alone as her parents where off watching turtles shoot eggs out their hoo-haas on some beach in Oman.
We crept around the back of the house and watched her through the blinds at the patio doors. There she is innocently chitty chatting to someone on the phone... it was just like in a movie, she is talking and walking and we are watching and creeping. We prepare our attire - woolie scarf masks - and as she approaches the window we burst out from behind the shrubbery and pound violently on the glass. She screams blue murder , drops the phone, her eyes boggle and (strangely) she starts hopping from one foot to the other. After a good 30 seconds her adrenaline levels subside enough to see it's us. Mass hysteria from her and mass hysterics from us ensues.
She did, bless her, get over it. Her mother - the one on the phone who was 4,000 miles away and hears her daughter's final words of 'I think there's someone is the garden' her dying scream and then the phone going dead never EVER forgave us...
I wouldn't have either.
Me = twisted twat!
