    Jurassic Park started my fear of velociraptors

    I still occasionally have dreams about velociraptors stalking me through the aisles of a Costco or something

    I haven't had one for a while, but the last one had a bunch of them hiding in the forest near my house and then coming out when it got dark and I had to escape somehow. I think I ended up dying before I woke up

    how were you people scared by the velociraptors?

    the first time I saw Jurassic Park I thought they were badass

    Probably because I was about 9 when I saw Jurassic Park the first time

    I remember reading "Monster" or something else by him.
    It was about these people who turned into monsters as a result of a comet that landed so long ago. The main character turns into a monster throughout the series, eventually eating one of her friends, then blowing the fuck out of everyone else with gasoline bombs.

    Did any of guys ever read a story about a Scarecrow that comes to life and is just kinda walking around while these two guys are at a reclusive sheep farm doing work for the winter.

    Then they finnaly get freaked out and leave. But one guys forgets the shears or something and walks back. The dude sees the Scarecrow walking aorund on the roof. But the dude doesn't care because all it did was just walk around.

    A few hours go by and the dude doesn't return. So the other guy goes to see whats up and he sees the Scarecrow drying the other dude's skin on the roof.

    Couldn't sleep for days when my sixth grade teacher read us that one.

    I think RL Stine is a real person, because didn't he come out with a real book at some point

    like an actual adult fiction book that bombed

    also: Christopher Pike, the "remember me" series

    I remember being weirded out by those books

    The Scary Story books were the best, I had one or two of them and they freaked me out back in the day(and still do). I tried to read two Goosebumps books when I was a kid, I remember, but couldn't get into them. I think I decided to read the My Teacher is an Alien books instead.

    Even more interesting, in the comic they named him after a farmer next door that they didn't like. So I guess the creator of the comic had the original story in mind. My power of deduction is uncanny.

    Seeing that plane bit eleven years after getting the shit scared out of me (I was like six) it puts a lot of things into perspective.

    Namely, why I have such a fear of flying and also that I was kind of a pussy as a kid.

    I would use all my fingers to hold the places of my last decision. Find one of the endings, and then go back to redo my last decision.

    What always bothered me was when I would read straight through the book I would find endings I had never found before.

    The version with William Shater was better. Not the entire thing, just the part when the monster first appears. Before you can really see it, I mean. Right when it sort of floats onto the wing and you see it rise up? Yeah, that was fucking creepy. The rest of it is just ridiculous, though.

    You gotta love how both Shatner and Lithgow have made references to that scene; In one episode of The Cosby Show, Shatner was a passenger on a plane when the Cosby's were flying. He kept looking out the window and going "What the - oh nevermind."

    Later, when Shatner was cast as "The Big Giant Head" on 3rd Rock From The Sun, at one point TBDH and Dick both get off of a plane. They both go
    "I swear I saw something on the wing of the plane."
    "You saw it too?!"

    Wasn't there a Freakazoid episode that just parodied that scene?
