For example, if I'm walking alone after dark, I'm fine. If I hear footsteps behind me, not so fine. I hate night-lights, and I like my bedroom pitch black. If I hear a noise I can't identify, that's when the light comes on. And I don't put the lights on when I get up at night, which has resulted in many a VR floor fan collision.<br /><br />Mostly I'm afraid of people. Nearly everything else is predictable and/or knowable. People? Not so much.<br /><br /><a href="http://vrbarkowski.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">VR Barkowski</a><br />VR Barkowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927993233682731113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-15951875188593017472013-09-29T14:44:31.153-05:002013-09-29T14:44:31.153-05:00Yeah, I guess I'm a little afraid of the dark,...Yeah, I guess I'm a little afraid of the dark, although I have no trouble getting up in the middle of the night and usually sleep with my feet sticking out from under the covers. It's not like there are spiders around or anything.<br /><br />I think that fear of something popping out unexpectedly is spot on. That's exactly what makes me nervous about being in the dark. Just not THAT nervous.J E Oneilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09780097298061829471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-24189040705239744242013-09-29T11:04:00.306-05:002013-09-29T11:04:00.306-05:00A friend who claimed her mother was a sensitive to...A friend who claimed her mother was a sensitive told me to never sleep totally in the dark. It's easier for the dark spirits to enter. Light frightens them. <br /><br />I still do not like a totally black house - (I saw Pitch Black for one reason). I remember that Audrey Hepburn movie, too.<br /><br />I worry more about humans than the undead, but October is also the time when the fabric thins between the separations in realms, isn't it?D.G.

To wash your hands four to five times daily will keep your bouts of the flu down.<br /><br />Mud and Nails, huh? I hate the nails scratching along the chalkboard!<br /><br />Milo:<br />The dark at the top of the stairs was it for me. I would watch horror movies Saturday as a kid, and then have to force myself to walk up into that well of darkness that waited for me at the top of the stairs. Brrr!Roland D.

So yeah, it creeps me out especially when I know that the veil that seperates this world from the other one is thin between to the hours of 9 PM and 6 AM.<br /><br />Hugs and chocolate,<br />Shelly<br /><br />Hope you've been well.
