    You have a few interesting ones/.
    I live in Western MA and there are black bears everywhere. They are huge and fast. They scare me.

    Bees...must be a childhood thing. I am 6'1", 220 and bees scare me. Go figure.

    Flying...I do it, but I never feel comfortable.

    Sharks...they are sharks.

    Hey, who knows...its hanging over, someone wants to pull you under the bed and eat ya or something.....who knows...boogie man? I watched too many scary movies as a kid.
    All that's sacred, comes from youth....dedications, naive and true.

    Flannel Shirt, your location does explain the bears... well bees, a lot of people are afraid if them. Sharks, well if I was in the water and I saw a shark I'd be afraid too...

    There were three rooms in my grandmother's house, one with a big closet with green windows in it... my nephew, my brother (both older than me) and we watched some scary movies one night when grandma was away... my brother and nephew said monster or something lived in those closet and would come to get me. Two years ago when I grandma died and we had to sell the house ... and we're were emptying the house I came in that room and saw that closet, still gave me the creeps.

    - Spiders is a phobia...NEVER try to have fun with me by threatening me with a spider..you'll get seriously hurt! Just thinking about it my flight or fight instinct kicks in (and I'm not much of a runner :))
    Can't say I'm keen on any insects though so I wouldn't advice to try with them either
    - Being physically constrained (straightjacket would make me mad).

    I'm sorry to say for people afraid of their parents dying: it's going to happen, no point in thinking about it but it will, sooner than anyone else you love if things are right..
    Don't have children yet but that is something I'd be terrified of, them dying, or even simply getting hurt.

    Hmmm, old thread. was gonna start my own. Turns out the search on this actually works sometimes.

    I've been terrified of dogs since I was a small child. In particular small ones like Jack Russels. If they bark at all I'll run a mile. Although lately I've been getting a bit better.

    Sharks, big bodies of water like lakes/oceans. I don't speak that big-body-of-water language, and I think it is a language to learn.
    Inability to communicate i.e., needing to find a train in a country where I don't speak the language, and I'm not near a train.
    Heart surgery as an adult. Even just getting tired too easily would scare me.
    People who like to hurt others.
    As posted on another thread I guess I am afraid to die.

    I was afraid of knives, but I attended pastry school, and that helped lesson the fear.

    I'm very bashful in the dating scene, and I don't know why. I'm assuming it
    has to do with some sort of fear.

    I was afraid of dogs/cats, but we had the best dog, Ricky, growing up. Also, my twin has the cutest dogs, and a cat that head-butts my back for attention. I've gotten over that fear a bit because I know them.

    Clowns......I fucking hate clowns, and the sight of one to this day still sends a shiver up my spine.

    The monsters under the bed that wants to grab my feet, so they have to be wrapped up tight, no matter how hot it is.

    One of my kids will get a serious mental illness and have to be institutionalized.

    Mine are weirdly specific.

    planes, i have flown but didnt relax much at all.
    and when the pilot turned in a leaning fashion to find the airport, wow.
    F that noise.

    Sharks..i dream about being ate by sharks quite a bit.

    Bigfoot..i live in the NW, if im out hikin thru the forests bigfoots comes to
    mind, that and cougars.
    which ive seen a flash run down a tree and leap into the air from about
    15 ft off the fern covered ground.
    possibly one bad ass cougar, or a bobcat.
    either way, it was freaky.

    mostly ppl give me fear.
