Interestingly enough, I had a big fear of dogs. I don’t really know why because I’ve never had a traumatic experience with them (thank God I never got bitten).

I also feared being alone, darkness (but not much) and heights. Woah, I was a fearful kid.

Today, well, I only fear those big, aggressive dogs like kangals and rottweilers. As for darkness and loneliness, nah.

    Mine was the inevitability of getting looked at by a dinosaur through un-curtained windows at night, thanks to watching Jurassic Park at far too young of an age.

    I can safely say that I am no longer worried about getting looked at by a dinosaur, through a window or otherwise, although if it did actually happen it probably would be pretty scary.

      As an adult that’s honestly funny, but I could see myself also having the same fear.

        yeah, there was a clerestory in my childhood home that had windows just the perfect height in my child-brain for a T-Rex to look though; unaccompanied nighttime journeys through those lofty halls were very harrowing.
