Hi, wonderful readers and writers. Good day/ night to all of us. How have you been? It's Friday today and it will be the weekends again after. Days passes by so fast. Whew. Let's enjoy our day today. π
But let me of course flex to you these awesome sponsors of mine. Thanks for your continues support. Here they are.
In this article, I'll try to explain why I'm scared of such creepy stories. Why I stopped watching them. Although, I used to love it during my childhood.
I know, many users here love to read, write and watch scary things. You might find this article silly though. My apologies for that. Hihi. But still, feel free to read it. I find you people brave. How do you take such creepy stories? Are you not scared when you're alone? Imagining as if someone is calling you, someone is hiding under your bed, someone's going to shock you on your ceiling? For me, I'm 100% scared. Haha. You might say, "why imagine all sort of stuffs if you get easily scared?" My answer is, I don't know too. π Such thought is creative to creepy things.
When I was a Kid
You won't believe but I'm a horror lover when I was a kid. Although I'm alone or not. Those horror sounds it produce, I used to love them. The thrill I felt were really great. I used to enjoy watching them. I remembered a Thailand movie. Wherein, the woman was madly in love with a man for the first time. But then she was raped by her classmates and decided to end her life. From then on, she still wanted to be part of her boyfriend's life, so, she went on the man's shoulder and stayed there. Waaaah, her body's color was pale white, bloody face and so on. I love that. Haha.
Another horror was the ghost roaming around a house. Making her neck longer just to scare people there. Or even chasing people on the stairs. And also showing up outside the window. I find that funny though. But what scares me was their make up. They're like real ghosts. As if someone I could really see when I'm alone.
Everytime I watch horror movies, I actually need someone to be with me when I sleep. Haha. Or if there's no choice, then, I will cover myself with my blanket, all over my body, until morning. Lols.
We used to have TV series in GMA channel before as well. I said this before, the Kakaba-kaba, Chakadoll, and so on. I forgot the rest. Hehehe. That time, when televisions were not yet in everyone's house, my neighbors would come to watch with us. All of us enjoyed watching it. That was an enjoyable moment with neighbors.
I also have a cousin, at the same time my friend and has the same age as me. She's not the type to get scared with horror things. I never saw her the face expression that got scared. Never. Unlike me, who was her opposite. π π From our house to their house, she needed to walk on the road, about 100 meters long? I'm not sure. After she watched with us in our house, she goes home alone at night. Was she not scared? Or sometimes, she slept over with me. She's a brave soul indeed. Maybe, ghosts were her friends guiding her on the path. Just kidding. She has strong prayers.
Among my siblings, I'm the most dramatic of them all when it comes to horror things. π They get scared too but slight only. Haha.
Now that I became an Adult
My imaginations got me the most that's why, I eventually stopped watching/listening to horror dramas. I don't want to get sick as well. Haha. Yay, when you hear those sounds coming from it, the cries of the dead calling the living people, their revenge, and so on. I don't want to hear nor see it. Haha. We have unlimited videos that we can watch on the internet but, I chose not too. Instead, I prefer to watch K-dramas and others.
I just watched some, entitled Black, a K-drama. It's not a total scary thing but shows the dead people asking for help. Also, Hotel de Luna and The Master's Sun. I'm forgetful these days so I can't remember the rest.
If it's a pure horror drama, that's what I don't really watch. That feeling when it lingers in my mind and my imaginations starts to be creative. I don't like that. Why in the world that as I grow older, the more I get scared easily. To lessen my emotions, I don't switch off the lights until morning. Haha. It stays with me for days or weeks. So in the future, when I have a house, I want the toilet to be inside the house. Haha. So I don't have to go out at night.
My husband even got angry at me one time. He said, "Why can't you overcome it? Will you continue to be like that?" I was hurt and stayed silent. Hihi. The other toilet in our house, in the province was outside. So everytime I wake up, I also wake him up. Until such time that he got annoyed. π After that, no matter how scared I was, I never woke him up in the middle of the night just to accompany me outside. Huhu. Char.
Another feelings I have. Have you experienced this too, when you walk past the cemetery, you sing and your voice would abnormally go loud? π As if you're singing on stage? I guess you do. So we have similarity now. Haha. Or, we can walk fast which is not the usual.
And now, in the city while living at my sister's old house, and I sleep alone, I bought a curtain and placed it around my bed. Haha. So I have a romantic dream at night instead of dreaming about ghosts.
There was also a time when I got addicted to Mr. Raffy Tulfo's show. I watched that scary part as well. Some videos have sounds, it was like coming from a girl's voice. So many netizens questioned it. And they call for experts like Ed Caluag who can call the spirits of the dead. It was found out that the building, where Mr. Tulfo's show was, used to be an old one. It was just renovated and that's where they stayed. They found out that there was a girl who got killed there. And wanted to tell people about her story. As if asking for justice. She would even watch Mr. Tulfo and his staffs do their jobs. One time also, according to the staffs, they were about to go home that night. The two staffs were waiting for their workmate who at that time, they thought was in the toilet. They heard that someone flashed inside, with the thought that it was their workmate who did it. When suddenly, their workmate called them from another area. They got shocked and scared at the same time and went out of the building immediately. That was a story according to them. And for me who heard all of those, I suffered for more than a week. I couldn't get enough sleep and I feel scared all the time. π¨ So sometimes, I call my niece to sleep with me, and I was glad that she was willing too. Whew.
Not far from where we live, last year, a businesswoman got killed. She was stabbed many times, her hands, chest, back and legs. Until now, there was no news about the people who did that to her. There was a story I heard about it. That night, her small niece should sleepover, but she went somewhere and celebrated a birthday party with her friends. So her little niece did not sleep with her like the usual. And when she came home, she was about to sleep when those killers came and killed her. I also got a a traumatic feeling from that incident that lasted for almost a month. Whew.
Ending Words
These are the reasons why I stopped seeing or hearing horror movies and stories. Never!!! I don't know when I can overcome these kinds of feelings. I really want to get rid of it. So that, I can watch or hear anything from now on. It was like a battle between me and myself. Hooooo. How to overcome this? Mempz.
Are you like me as well? Or did you overcome it yourself? Wow. So nice to hear then. Congratulations for overcoming it. π I hope me too.
