Reading someone's post about the things they're scared of made me write my own. But I'll make a twist and tell you about why I stopped watching horror movies or dramas. Some of you here might love watching scary or horror videos but you don't get scared. Or maybe, you watch it but you cover your eyes while watching. You're such a brave soul to watch it.

Whenever I read someone's post, I become wary about the content. If it's a story that scares me, then I don't continue with it. I have such a wild imagination. Haha.

Horror Lover as a Child

It was different when I was still a kid. Do you still remember that GMA horror drama entitled: "Kakaba-kaba"? If you knew, then you can relate. This was a horror drama that appeared every night from Monday's to Friday's on television. Not sure though. Please correct me if it was during weekday nights or Saturday nights that this show was televised.

We used to watch this with my family, neighbors and cousins. There were limited TVs before so neighbors would come to the house and watch. We stared silently on the TV. There was a strong heartbeat sound whenever I watch it. I was brave to watch horror when I was still a littl kid. Other example was "Chakadal/Chucky". I would also feel excited to watch each episode. I don't know but I really love it, although, I would get easily scared when I'm alone at night.

Teenager

When I became a teenager, I started to avoid horror movies. It was getting worse. Haha. Imaginations were real.

One evening, while I was standing on our door looking outside, I saw a black shadow. Its hair was cut like the anime girls' hair. Nearly a V-shaped hair. I thought, she was my sister. I used to sleep with my sisters before in one bed. So I stood up with a smile, waiting for her to come down. I vividly saw that she was really stepping down. It was really dark that time and I really saw it.

After a minute, I paused and felt shocked. "Huh, where is she?" No one showed up in front of me. I got scared and immediately switch on the lights, straight to the bed and slept. The blankets were all over me. I covered my head until my feet and slept. I was even shaking. But what surprised me was, I got a good sleep. I woke up in the morning and I was feeling great. Haha. I believe, that was just my imagination. See, I have strong imagination!

Growing Older

And yeah, I never wanted to watch any horror anymore. You know, seeing those dead people with green colors, bloody, no eyes, missing body parts, a hole in the body, and so on. I can't seem to take it. But with zombies, I'm okay for that. Hehehe. If it's a pure horror story, then that's really a BIG NO for me. Sorry for those horror lovers, I'm no longer a fun. 😅 Apologies for saying this.

I have done many things to calm myself. Like in the evening, when I go somewhere far, which is dark, I would sing loud to control my fear. Or, I would run or walk fast. It was like having a heart attack. I don't know but I would feel easily scared. Hehehe.

My parents would always say, "don't allow yourself to feel scared easily. Those are just your imaginations. Just pray to God and He'll remove your fears." My parents are not scaredy cats so they tell me these easily. In my mind, I say, "you only say that because you don't get scared easily! Huhu." My parents are brave people by the way. I adore them for that. I also have my cousin, who doesn't fear ghosts, monsters. As well as my hubby. Haha.

One time, in the province, because the restroom is outside our bedroom, I would often disturb my hubby in his sleep just to accompany me outside. He patiently did that many times. Then one time, he got angry at me and said: "Why can't you go on your own? You're already an adult. How can you fight your fears if you always do that?" Of course, I was annoyed and cried a little bit. Haha. From then on, I rarely wake him up from his sleep. Hihi.

If I don't feel good, or I'm in a bad mood, I don't feel any emotions about ghosts. I can do things alone. Lols.
