Are you afraid of the dark?

[Ifreann]

Well duh. You are the dark knight.

*batmetal intensifies*

[Andsed]

Sometimes when late at night. Or if I am going up stairs.

[Bluelight-R006]

I was literally never afraid of the dark until I was eight, almost nine years old and in fourth grade when I saw a ghost show on TV. Ever since then, sometimes I worry about something or someone unexpected sneaking up on me in a dark room, especially back when I was still devoutly religious and worried Satan could come up and snatch me at any moment. Just thinking about that even now gives me the heebie-jeebies.

I think I've always been afraid of being on small or unstable platforms or at extreme heights, though; when I climb a huge lookout tower the fear is typically subdued, but if it were to jiggle in any way, I'd probably see my life flash before my own eyes.

I fear Satan, too. I am still religious, and I still fear Satan

Knowing you’re religious, you should trust in God and not fear Satan.

It’s not Satan I fear. I fear the scary-looking and evil-doing ghosts that can randomly appear. We all know they’re mostly myths and stories to haunt us, but that’s what’s driving me crazy in the dark. Talk about holding a flashlight only to realise the joker is in front of you.

Whatever you do don’t watch Hereditary... it will give you nightmares about what you might see in the dark

[Crookfur]

As a child and into early adulthood I used to have the whole, put the lights out and run into bed issues because a duvet is perfect protection against the horrors.
Oddly the dark only bothered me indoors, outside I positively relished it. Not that it was ever that dark in a British suburb, even a power cut there was still a lot of orange light about.

I suppose it was living on my own that finally dismissed the last imaginary monsters in the dark feelings and now I enjoy the dark both inside and out. The scariest thing in the dark these days is an ill child primed and ready to vomit...

I know what’s good and bad for me. Yet I give in and decide to watch it for the scares and curiosity. And I occasionally buy mystery murder books which, although, can satisfy my eager for reading, can give me more suspicion of the dark, anticipating of a murderer(s) to jump at me. In fact, it doesn’t even need to be the dark. It can be in the light, just as long as there are blind spots.

I just don’t know when to stop. At least I do know I’m not the only one.

And lego pieces that the kids leave strewn about on the floor.

I don't think Lego produces anything that can pierce through a sole.

I once stepped on a lego. I gave a sole piercing shriek.

[Drongonia]

Kinda. Some nights I'll stroll out into the dark and grab snacks or go to the bathroom without a lightsource, no sweat...

Other times, I daren't leave my lit room in fear of what lurks in the dark.

[Caracasus]

You know when it's dark outside, but there's enough light to see your way to the sink to get a drink of water or whatever? Well, you probably catch a glimpse of your reflection in the window.

Thing is, sometimes I have to look properly at it, because part of me is worried that it's not going to be my face looking back. But then there's a dilemma. Sure, you've checked once and yes, it's your gormless half asleep mug peering back at you but what happens if you look away? Will it change? Will it be something else looking in at you?

I like walking at night but get nervous when I go by an unlit patch of woods or a dark street. When I lived in Ypsilanti, me and a friend of mine used to walk around late at night in the streets. My fear of the dark outside in ypsi though wasn't related to ghosts, but instead related to the violent crime in the city.

There's a a stretch of Michigan avenue in the city known as "the malevolent mile" where homeless people and muggers and junkies often gather, and I was robbed twice on that stretch of road. Then there was the time me and my neighbor were walking and a drive by shooting happened like five feet from us. And there was one time we were walking and down the road from us we could hear gunshots. We ended up going down an unlit back alley just to avoid continuing down the road toward whatever conflict was at the end of it.

But my fear of the dark inside is totally related to like ghosts, and when I was a kid it was aliens I feared. I actually stack papers on chairs at night because of a legend I heard from my girlfriend that ghosts will sit in empty chairs at night and stare at you. l

So even as a grown man the dark still scares the hell out of me

I don't leave my couch after dark lol

[Partybus]

Afraid of the dark? Not really. But, things that may or may not be in the dark? Terrified...you know, spiders, mosquitoes, antifa's, Communists...the usual really. Actually, now that I think about it, that is my daylight afraid list as well (JK... sort of).

When you're walking through your dark house after a power outage trying to find the bathroom and your flashlight suddenly illuminates a masked figure with a hammer and sickle bandana wrapped around his mouth before you're hit in the head with an ice pick

But Satan is Lucifer, the bringer of light. The night should be where you are most safe from him.

[Gormwood]

No...because I'm batman.

You think darkness is your ally?

I was wondering when someone would actually say that.

Satan: has survived a war with God for thousands of years

Also satan: a Human weapon kills him

Btw I just realized satan is an anagram of santa

Well, I'll never feel safe on Christmas again

There is a beautiful online technowank story based around the premise that, while demons and angels are certainly stronger than humans, they still fight with spears, axes, bow and arrow etc - while we have machineguns and nukes.
