Ghost don’t scare me. People do.

Criminals can be scary

As a kid, I was never scared of ghosts, or goblins, or even vampires. At the playground, kids would hunt ghosts. Almost everybody had seen a ghost under their bed except me. One kid even  supposedly told other kids when they will be haunted at night. I could’ve cared less when I would be “haunted.” You might say, “Well, Norman, You must have lived a paranoid-free life!” Wrong.

People scared me. No, I wasn’t completely against my siblings. No, I wasn’t just scared of any old person. I was scared that evil thieves would come into my house and steal the very stuffed animal right out of my tiny hands. I grew up watching way to much news, and I just got flat out paranoid.  I would always have these nightmares about criminals breaking into my house. Call me crazy.

What were you scared of as a kid?
