Ya know what really creeps me WAAAAY the hell out?
It's not ghosts, demons, or magic, or any movie jibber, it's voodoo dolls and ventryloquist dummies. Jesus those things are creepy. Man I really hate dolls a lot.
Am I the only one who feels like this. I mean lifelike dolls are bad enough but when you give them voice, a face, a personality. *Shiver* I get chills just thinkin about it!

Mark me down for this one as well (and sports mascots as well). I guess anything that seems to be 'hiding' themselves from the rest of the crowd.

Oh, man... The private elementary school that I went to had big glass cases of antique dolls down one hall. They were horrible. I'd always skoot right past them on my way wherever I was going.
During the haunting scare that happened in my 3rd grade year, one of the rumors was that one of the dolls could move its arm and cause somebody on campus to choke. Thank god for school administrators, man... those poor guys went through hell that year. |

I've got another thing to add to my list of lifelike creepy things, Wax Dummies.
I was in some museum in Washington and there was this display no one was at. My friend Justin and I wandered over there and we found this Über creepy wax dummy dispaly. Unlike most of the other exibits it wasn't behind a glass case, tehre was just a railing between us and the dummies. Jesus Christ on a crutch were they ever freaking scary. We just walked away fast as possible.

Yeah my sister has some of those silly dolls, and one time she left one of them in my room. So I wake up in the middle of the night, and just look over to the right before closing my eyes again and I see the fucking doll on my dresser. It scared the SHIT out of me. It looked like a real little kid on the dresser, man that was probably the most scared I've ever been.

My brother is afraid of shop mannequins... he had a bad dream about them once or something. I've got to admit, the thought of one of those things coming to life and coming at me down the corridoor in it's jerky plastic gait is pretty scary!

Clowns and dolls? Nothing scary about them. When I was a kid we went to some tourist trap somewhere and they had a chicken that could beat me at Tic-Tac-Toe, now that really scared the crap out of me!

Clowns are, by far, the worst. I saw "It" with a friend when I was pretty young and it duly scared the shit out of me. However, I think the worst part about clowns is that they're really fake. Everything about a clown is fake (his smile) and absurd (his shoes). It's very creepy.
Dolls, though, like those used by ventriloquists or like that found in "The Game" starring Michael Douglas, are freaky, too. |

No tangible object really scares me, but random things in the dark can really get the mind working in strange directions.
I was in this hotel recently. It was night, but not really dark. The streetlights were on just outside, and the window was open. I was just about to hit the sack, and was looking out of the window. I shut the lights off. It became darker in the room than outside, so light was flooding in. I turn around, and there's someone there, moving by the wall! Whew.. its just my shadow, cast by the streetlights. That little experience really freaked me out though.

The thing about dolls that freaks me out isnt so much that their eyes follow you, its the thought of them staring into space as they do and THEN having their eyes redirect towards you.. you just know its gonna happen one day...
As far as the animal heads i the evil dead, i found them more funny than scary. Try watching the first murder scene of House on Hanted Hill at 4am. You'll be seeing faceless eyeless ghosts zooping up on you every time you open a door or turn around.

The thing that scares me the most is like in "Signs" when you look out your window at night and there is a dark shape just standing there, sometimes i freak myself out bad when i look out the window at night. I know one day something will be standing there looking at me while i'm in bed.

i'm scared shitless of clown and i'll tell you why. when i was about 5 i got this clown doll/music box thing for a gift. i was scared of it since i first saw it for some reason. i only wound it up once. its head would go around in a circle while it played some creepy music box tune. not in a cirlce like the exorcist, like a circle like how you stretch your neck. anyway, my mother placed this doll on the top of a bookshelf right in front of my bed. now, like i said, i only wound it up that one time. do you know what its like to wake up to creepy music and look up and see a clown doll shaking its head around. (insert evil clown laugh here) i was so scared i couldn't move. this happened several times. it always seemed to stop with the head pointing down like it was looking at me. i hate clowns.

Its not the dolls or puppets that are scary but the people who play with them for their own preverted uses. They say it's entertainment, but don't think for a moment that a ventriloquist has been lulled into their own sick world of make-believe. Ponder for a moment Mr. Rogers fantasy world.

Porcelain dolls are terrifying. My grandmothers had an old porcelain doll on a shelf in one of the guestrooms, which unfortunately was the room where I had to sleep when we visited her. It didn't look creepy during the day, but in the dark room with the pale moonlight as the only source of light, the doll appeared ghostlike with white it's skin and dark eyes, and through my imagination it was almost like it's smile had changed. I remember waking up one night facing the doll and I swear it had turned slightly, now staring right at me insted of the wall above me. That freaked me out so much that I took the doll and locked it into the closet the next day, and that was the end of it.
But still, I always feel very uneasy when I sleep in the same room as an old fashioned doll... |
