Nightmare Fuel
 

I thought we could use a thread for stuff that scares the hell out of ya. Phobia stuff, or, stuff that gives the heebiejeebies, etc.

I'll open with:

Just What The World Needs, Big Caffeinated Spiders

GAH!!!

Attachment 39780

Attachment 39785

This fellow chased me well into adulthood and married life.
My wife teases me about the wolf-man still being after me some nights.

My nightmares are always extremely relevant and topical. They involve real people I genuinely hate, and while the things that are happening may be unrealistic, they are never impossible or supernatural.

Four words.


"We need to talk".


:bolt:

The only movie monster that ever got to me, as a kid mind you, was The Creature From The Black Lagoon. I caught it on a Saturday afternoon re-run.

Attachment 39803

This thing came after me in the dark more than once.

This gave me recurring unexplainable nightmares for years

Spex, you're showing your age !

But I agree...I recognized it without even playing the video

Fucking shit. Now I'm switching to tea. Thanks Grav! I thought I was over my spider phobia until 27 seconds ago.

i'll definitely look twice in my coffee cup!

roaches. i can't stand.......roaches!

You were just scared of Barry Goldwater. Had nothing to do with the Russkies or the bomb.

I lived in an apartment that had a roach problem like that.

Yes, I'd seen the movie first, which made the whole roach issue far worse for me.

the worst part was that the little bastards wouldn't stay in the kitchen where they belonged.

:D

OMG! I had to cover my eyes while watching that. So freaking scary. I actually had the chills after the video ended. :lol:

i keep an airsoft pistol in the garage for when i'm smoking. every now and then one will show up and i'll shoot'em. except, i found out the hard way that they sometimes splatter. all over you.

Eew.:greenface

I found out recently about the Slender Man, also known as The Operator, Der Ritter, Der Großmann or The Thin Man. And, like a dummy, I had to learn more about him. This guy + active imagination = bad times.

Awww, it's just a cute widdle fwuitbat!

Or are you saying you have nightmares about watermelons?

looks just like a little dog.


From HELL!

Widdle fwuitbat my ass!

Attachment 40193

I'm still freaking out over Slender Man. WTF?

I'll never go out by the woods/river at night ever again!

So much for a good night's sleep...:neutral:

The filename says "sixfootrattler". Maybe, if the girl is only four feet tall...but then again, maybe she has small hands.

Great googahmoogah.

Attachment 40362

Anyone have a hand grenade?

I want sooo badly to read about it... but then I know I'm just going to freak myself out constantly. I've been debating it for like a month now haha

Most of the stuff in this thread are just ehh..to me.

But not the friggin cockroaches.:yeldead:

For four years, I lived in a rental house that had one gawdawful german cockroach infestation. They were everywhere, mostly living in the walls and erupted out of the electrical sockets and other openings after dark.

Landlord ignored me.

I tried traps. I tried bait. I tried foggers. I tried boric acid. I tried spraying into and around every socket opening. I tried bleach. I even painted over any (cleaned) nesting areas I found to prevent more from being attracted. We kept everything in sealed tupperware, glass and ziploc baggies.

Nothing.

I hired Terminix, who had a money back guarantee. They sprayed and sprayed and I missed a ton of work while they gave it a shot. No luck.

That house needed to be tented.

We finally moved out and to this day, I have PTSD whenever I see a cockroach.

:thepain::greenface

No, I did NOT watch that damn video.

That is such a beautiful snake. It seems a shame it's dead, though it probably had the fatal misfortune of encroaching on some human's territory.

:eyebrow:...The day that thing died should be a national holiday.

of mourning.

diff topic.

SonofV has told me that he wants to be Slender Man for Halloween. We're working on how to make his arms reaaaaaalllly long. The white face/head will be accomplished with a lycra mask/hood. black suit, white shirt, red tie, those are pretty easy.

Having seen your previous "attempts" at costumes, I just know it will be amazing.
You have a flair for this.

:D

Thanks!!!

The claw!

None of this stuff scares me except the snake. I just saw a show on Nat. geo. about how all these freaking pythons and anaconda's are thriving in the Fla. everglades and now they even actually have a Venom Unit that goes around looking for these giant snakes. AND then there is the alligator problem down there; forget it. I HATE Florida and don't ever want to live there. "Oh, darling, there's a man-eating alligator fighting a man-squeezing snake over there by our pond! How sweet!"

Grandma can HAVE Florida. I want to move somewhere where I'm more likely to be eaten by a Yeti.

It's OK, the turkeys got yer back

http://cellar.org/2012/turkeysnake.jpg

I don't think them's turkeys.

I think them's guineas.

And they make excellent watchdogs.

I think they're dolphins.

Don't they attack snakes?

Guinea fowl let's go to the videotape!



Although the commenter saying that the snake is already dead, seems accurate to me

From wikipedia(bold mine):

AND alert to snakes in the grass without apparent fear? I know what I want for Christmas.

Hear those fukkers before you say that.

Congratulations, sir! It's a, uh--here ya go.

Attachment 40699

They made one of those an alien in MIB3.

For the life of me I can't remember what that fish-thing is called.

Moving on...given the choice between the two...

Attachment 40785

...I'd take the Taliban.

the very aptly-named Blobfish!

I thank you.

In my front yard. In Momdigr's flowers. I've been told to refer to 'her' (the spidder, not Momdigr) as Charlotte.

Attachment 41151

Speaking of turkeys.

What does the title of the song Young Turks mean? He sings 'young hearts be free tonight...'

I googled about the 'young turks' but I don't get how it relates to the song.

I really don't like that song. It came on I :heartpump Radio and I remembered I never understood that.

Young Turks @ Wikipedia:

That's prolly no help, I know.

Constipated for life now.

Black Widow, for the record.

***Squirm Warning***

Whaaaaaaaaaathefuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck is this?

Drop Bear larvae.

pretty gross.

this one is fucking gross. if you're squeamish, at all, read the title and move on. it is as nasty as you imagine.

Fracking is nightmare fuel

Not clicking wormy links.
Biders are okay. Parasites (and removal) are not.

I hate wasps, they really freak me out those bastards are the skinheads of the insect world they'll sting for fuck all just because they can...
Spawns of Satan they are :worried:

Word.

Many years ago, I was working in the garden. Came across one of these nasty fuckers...

http://i4.ytimg.com/vi/7YHxIlKlWfc/0.jpg

and proceeded to smash it with my rake.

Wereupon its gut juices squirted out onto my HEAD. Whereupon I went instantly into full spaz mode trying to get the stuff off of me. It was gritty and slimy.

GAAAHHHH!!!

WTF is that gruesome looking thing, anyway?

{/shudder}

And does it grow up into anything worse?!

That, my friends, is the great North American Jerusalem Cricket.

Good lord, I hope not! :eek:

Okay.
Well at least they're useful and not really into attacking the human bean.

Thanks for the info.

Some info...I make no guarantees.
