As written March 23, 2006 ~ but perfect for Halloween, 2008!
1 Visits to the Dentist.
2 As a little girl I saw what I thought to be the Virgin Mary (it could have also been a ghose, angel or an alien ~ but for some reason I viewed it as the Virgin Mary) glowing in the corner of my room. I closed my eyes and when I looked back she was gone. But… she had moved to the bottom bunk of my beds. From the top bunk I could see the glowing jutting out below me, as if she were lying on the bottom bunk below.
3 I was very sick in 1996. A team of Doctors came into my room to tell me they were going to let “machines” do my breathing for me for awhile because my body was just too tired to do the work. I remember screaming No and I just knew that I would never wake up.
4 Spiders ~ need I say more?
5 I was flying home to attend my Grandmothers (Dad’s side) funeral. We had to change planes once. About 10 minutes before landing in PA airport the cabin filled up with thick black smoke. We had to land and make an emergency exit, luckily we were close to the airport. It turned out to be the AC unit in the cabin… BUT I had to get back on another plane, which wasn’t very fun!
6 Actually, everytime I fly, seems to scare me!
7 When the labor pains during childbirth got Real Bad!
8 As a child I was sleeping on my top bunk and laying on my side next to the wall. A green hand reached up from the crack between the wall and the bed, again from the bottom bunk, and grabbed my ear.
9 The time had the seizure while on vacation.
10 911.
11 Going to court, having police tailgate me, or even better, actually getting pulled over.
12 Watching my first few horror movies. The first was the Amityville Horror and a close tie, the Shining!
13 As a child I had two recurring dreams on a regular basis. The first: I was still only crawling at this point, I crawled over to pick up a fluffy white feather and it turned into a big black hairy spider and started scurrying toward me. The second: There was a devil that lived in the crawl space basement we had and he would come up the drain when I was having a bath. I was very young for this one too.
How about you? What was your scariest moment?
wow, those are some scary things…and some of their explanations would make great blog posts, methinks!
Add spiders to my list!
I love your new blog.
I am so happy to hear you have a job and not only one….but two!!!!!
I saw the Virgin Mary before too, remember. But it was not scary it helped me to feel safe, when I was scared.
I was always afraid of the dark as a child.
Since those days when you used to see things in your room I’ve come to think you had episodes of Sleep Paralysis While Awake. An Oximoron for sure. But they feel as real as real can be. I’ve had them too. Not like yours though.
