Spiders and snakes? Psh. When I see a spider in my home, I pick it up in a paper towel and set it outside. When I encounter a snake while hiking (I'm coming back, Colorado!)... I step over or around it.

But you know what scares me? Opening a can of biscuits. I feel like I'm defusing a bomb, never knowing when that "POP!" will come.
 
I don't like finding big nasty (fast) spiders in my apartment. One just can imagine one crawling in your ear at night while your sleeping or into one of your clothes.

There's also the possibility that they're poisonous. I'll leave it to you imagination on what would occur if a brown recluse (also called fiddler spider or woodchip spider) gets into your drawers and bites you in the crotch area. Or if it crawles into your ear or bites you in the eye or neck area. Spiders can be a real problem to have them in your house. I kill them pretty quick if inside my place but leave them be if outside.

There isn't much that actually frightens me though just bothersome.

I suppose a spirit like that seen on Ju-On popping out of my closet while I'm in bed at night I would classify as frightening but that doesn't seem likely to ever happen so I guess not.

The feeling that you might disappear my dog. :o

We could have had it all ...
 
Spiders disgust me. Except tarantulas. Oddly enough they dont bother me at all.

Biscuit cans just make me very anxious cause I never know when its going to pop. Im almost 100% sure biscuit cans have resulted in heart attacks and strokes in the elderly. Why is there not a movement to stop the systematic murder of our elderly?! Im onto you, Pillsbury!

I hate spiders.

I also hate unexpected messages from authority figures. Mods, managers, teachers...I always worry I've managed to do something wrong. Irrational, but, hey.
 
I'm pretty sure there's a serial killer lurking about the second I get shampoo in my eyes. :(
Tonight, I had forgotten how nerve racking it can be to walk to your car in a empty parking garage. All I kept thinking was how to survive an attack.

They're like little surprise hand grenades! My bulldog hates it, as soon as the first one pops he turns feral and grabs my pants leg (or ankle!)
 
Reptilian Shapeshifters.

Ever read "The Doom that Came to Sarnath" by HP Lovecraft? Dry read but interesting ideas.
 
it's not spiders that creep me out, but it's those million-legged ****ers that scurry so fast on that area where your wall meets the ceiling... but the one that REALLY creeped the **** outta me was last winter, where one was on the wall and it was just sitting there... the only difference was with THIS one, was that it was almost as big as my hand... it just completely chilled my s**t, but I got the bastard, though I needed a spray cleaner to remove all traces from the wall...

I had to open those things for my parents...

Which was weird. At four I was playing with some fireman toys and my Mom acted like she needed rescuing. THAT scared me to a metaphoriv bladder emoty state.

even more legs than that and sometimes a bit bigger body-wise... yeah, those ****ers can go straight to hell is right...
