Hmm. Let's see. What am I afraid of?
-Spiders. Yuck.
-Heights. Almost gone though.
-Dark. Almost gone also.
-Drowning/suffocating. I'm not sure why exactly, but it scares me half to death.
-Junebugs. *shudders* Ugh. Disgusting.
-The Krypt Keeper. He may not be scary now, but he was when you were four years old.
-Gremlins. Again: Not scary now, was when you were four years old.
I think that might be it.
