Hey Pandas, What Was Your Biggest Fear As A Kid? (Closed)

Share your stories!

Watched a movie about the moon crashing into earth as a kid (maybe at age 7 or so). One night a few weeks later we were on the road and came across the "Moon illusion" - the optical illusion which causes the Moon to appear larger near the horizon.

I thought our days are numbered.

I would never stand right next to my bed, afraid something would grab my ankle . I'd always run and then jump onto the bed.

Lava, quicksand, meteor showers, all the normal and rational fears kids have.

That my mother would actually, literally kill me. She was always physically violent/abusive to me (and my father), and she once pressed a gun to the underside of my chin when I was 6 and said she would unalive me. When I told my teacher about it at school the next day, and the principal called my parents in for a meeting, my mom lied and said I'd seen it in a movie and was making it up. I lived in constant fear that she would chop my hands and feet off with a butcher's knife/cleaver - I had precedent; she used to use a knife to cut my dad's back and arms. I wish I was exaggerating. Anyway! She's somehow still alive and ngl, I STILL fear her physical abuse even though she is 79 🙃

Spiders and whirlpools. Particularly draining pools and empty pools. They creeped me out. Thought I'd get sucked in if the pool drained while I'm in it.
