There are no living this in your room when you sleep[sp]except the 23 spiders and house centipedes that crawl on you when you sleep.[/sp]
Demanding pics of mansion and scary statues and maid.
Definitely the maid.
Become a vampire.
i like apples
I used to be scared of the dark itself, well not scared but really uncomfortable, simply because I just can't see anything, not monsters or anything. I slept in an evenly dimly lit room, because I felt comfortable knowing where things are and such. One day, my friends decided to leave the room pitch black, it was horrible at first, but we just talked until I fell asleep.

What does your dad do for a living?[/QUOTE]
I ain't rich man. I'm more like middle-high class. the house used to be my uncle's but he moved out of the country and let us move in.
And here, maids work for cheap, like 200 USD a month.

Sorry buddy, I've played STALKER before, these don't scare me.
I am afraid of illusions.
Also grudge which made me get scared of illusions and darkness AAAANDDD my bathroom... and probally bedroom.
No joke, i am serious.
You should hide in the dark and become the thing that's chasing people and freak them out.
That way you can figure out how dumb of a fear this is.
You can face the darkness in games but not in real life?

He's a man prostitute. The maid is not a real maid.
I would recommend you watch the movie Darkness Falls.
That'll help.

If you get fat you can just go into a dark place and haul your saggy ass every day then. Slim in 2 weeks.

Looks like you need some grammar education.
[QUOTE=TheUnwantedFag;25974022]You can face the darkness in games but not in real life?[/QUOTE]
In games, if something is there, it makes sound or you can partially see it. ( e.g. poltergeist and bloodsucker in stalker respectively )
[QUOTE=Uncle_Earl;25966463] I think this surfaced when I moved into a new house, an old-style mansion with lots of life-size statues and creepy paintings, with shadows lurking everywhere.
[/QUOTE]
maybe living in the mansion from Resident Evil wasn't a great idea.
So if there's sound you're fine?
Download some eerie music and leave it looping while you sleep.. Or I dunno get a fan. I can't sleep unless I hear my fan.
At least you're not completely blind at night. If all the lights are off and I don't have my contacts in, I can't see SHIT. And the dark creeps me out too.
So I sleep with my fan, closet light, and TV on. I've done this since I was like 13.
I am a wiener.
I sleep with a gigantic chandelier light on and my computer on and my television on because I like to sleep in luxury
no i'm a huge pussy actually

Is your dad Ryuk?
If you're scared of the dark, then you gotta be racist.
Or just a wimp.
[QUOTE=ZekeTwo;25969738]Light is usually the scariest for people because that's when they are able to see my face :frown:[/QUOTE]
Really? From what I heard, even people in a dark room still run from you.
Nah, we love you Zeke.
[QUOTE=YoMother;25972756]Grow up. Realize there is no such thing as ghosts, ghouls, monsters, killers hiding in the dark and any of that other bullshit they throw at you in movies.[/QUOTE]
Also, this.
go to therapy.
[QUOTE=Uncle_Earl;25966463]I'm going to tell you the truth: The dark scares me. Well, not really the "dark" but whatever could be in there. This is recent, as I don't have any memories of being scared of the dark as a kid. I think this surfaced when I moved into a new house, an old-style mansion with lots of life-size statues and creepy paintings, with shadows lurking everywhere.
Nothing really scares me, but the dark, oh my god, I can't walk for five seconds before beginning a sprint, and before I know it, I am already pushing my body to top speed. I can stand most gory/scary movies without closing my eyes, but I cant be in the dark without whispering to myself "nothing's there, nothing's there".
You are surely thinking "Why don't you just stay in your room, where you are the most comfortable?" The answer is: My dad. Dad's a lazy bastard and he loves to eat apples at night, and the kitchen is downstairs. Our maid always turns off the lights really early, so almost every night I have to run down there and get the damn apples from the basket- there are many baskets so I usually have to spend a minute looking for the right one. After these trips, it is not common to hear my dad saying " Wow boy, you are pale like a ghost. See anything interesting downstairs?"
How do I overcome this fear? Flashlights don't work because I think whatever is there will creep behind me- I feel powerless at this, and sometimes I even get angry!
Any tips facepunch? or perhaps has anyone had an experience like this?[/QUOTE]
Grow a pair and stop being 3.
Don't worry. There is nobody in the room.
Except Slender Man.
Make nightvision goggles out of a low-lux camera and a stack of IR LEDs.
I'm still kinda scared of the dark, but I've simply played too much Minecraft/Deadspace. :v:
I have this exact same problem, whenever this happens to me I just start having a wank.
