when i was a kid, my nanny would tell me that there were ghosts somewhere to get me to behave.. Vampires would bite me if i don't sleep early.. Now i'm not scared because i know that these things are not true.. I don't believe in them and i have faith that the Lord will always protect me from harm:)

nah i am not scared of ghosts, vampires or the boogeyman... but zombies and flesheaters freak me out! resident evil, the game, not the movie (the movie was a joke), really gave me the creeps.

Oh wow! I really think that I would be afraid of the movie instead. It was very scary and gross! I think that I can at least manage the video game. it does not look as real as the movie does.

never finished? i never even watched the first in game cut-scene where you see a zombie from behind and there is suddenly a pool of blood and the zombie looks behond... thats the point where i shut it off and i never put it on again. played the 4th game of the series but that wasnt really scary. but i really wish to overcome this fear. and games are far more scarier than movies, in my opinion... since i feel involved in the plot... i feel for the character... gaming is a whole different experience than movies. and i good game can prove to be gizillion times scarier than a movie ;)

Yes, God will protect you by your faith, I agree! When I was very young, my family used to tease us and tell us that if we are bad that the Ghostalivia was going to get us that day or at night. They even had a fake mask that would scare us of how ghouly and ugly the ghost would look. We were all scared silly. Even I was freaked out! And till this day, I am afraid of ghosts. I have seen some and felt them. So, I know what having a ghost around is like. I am a grown woman. But, I am still afraid of ghosts..

i know that spirits are everywhere but I've learned to accept that about life and by accepting them, I don't fear them:)

Yes, true. But, I do find myself being scared of anything as usual. I should not be, but I am. It is just things on this earth that is unexplainable..

yes i do accept with waht you say. God is there and he will ensure that we are safe always and he will keep us safe always. Ghosts are nothing but the imaginations/the peaceless souls. What do you think friend?

No one told me stories when I was a kid (except this really scary one that those guys that take the garbage from the containers were going to kidnap me if I didn't where I was going at night). xD I do, however, have phasmophobia, the fear of ghosts and spectres. I don't know why, but they always bother me. o_o I used to have a pretty bad case of it and had panic attacks every time someone mentioned ghosts, but I won't go into that. =P I don't show it as much anymore (at school I was able to go through an entire speech about ghosts keeping a straight face xD), but I do experience very rapid heartbeat and breathlessness at the mention of them. o_o Vampires and the boogeyman don't really bother me though. xD
