Hi Annie, if you get a fear flash, just see it for what it truly is… “just a movie, there’s no danger” and then use relaxation to take your mind away — See the FAQ “Why can’t I sleep after watching a scary movie?” for more details.

Okay, so this helped kind of, but I still get random flashes of the ‘thing.’ I’m freakin’ out! Everytime I close my eyes, it flashes..I’m terrified :/…

I have an irrational fear of horror movies. Ive seen 2 and I wont be scared at all but as soon as I try to relax I get scared. If I want to b scared all I have to do is watch trailers for horror movies. Weird thing is I don’t get scared if I hear about a cannibal loose in my city. I’m more like that’s a bit frightening then shrug it off. But horror movies… no matter what I do it always comes back to haunt me! I a few minutes ago watched trailers for every movie on a list for top 10 scariest movies out of boredom. I am in 6th grade so I’m WAY to old to ask to sleep in my parents room or something so I am in my bed with my de-clawed fat lazy cat Tucker (what protection he is with my iPod touch in 1 hand and my metal nail file that has a sharp point like a knife in the other. As my dear buddy Elijah say I am “Resourceful, and homicidal” (I can figure out a way to use ANY object as a murder weapon. Though I wouldn’t. I have a phobia of veins and bones- also meaning yes I can look at my own wrist without doing this weird spasm thing) and trying think of happy thoughts. But I SWEAR that on scene in Halloween looked EXACTLY like my room!!! I’m so paranoid. Typing this is making me feel better but I am having the 4 year olds every-night-deal of there’s a monster in my closet right now- and I do mean closet cuz there is no where else in my room to hide ‘cept the drawers (and mine are packed full of junk so). And now my ‘oh so dear protector’ (aka tucker) has fallen asleep in my lap. and I am alone again. did I mention its dark out and I’m VEEEERY weird ? But I feel calmer (@ least a bit and plan on watching a Disney movie now) so thanks for this… um… whatever its called.

Hi Zachary,

Bloody Mary WAS real, but is long gone. Can you summon up her spirit by saying her name 3 times or 13 times, in a mirrorr… NOOOO :-) And even if you could, would you want to??? ahahah I wouldn’t. The IDEA of it freaks us out though doesn’t it, and in a way that’s kind of exciting. But honestly, I would get your head completely out of all this kind of rubbish and pay attention to good stuff, fun stuff and other stuff like that :-)

I DO think that what you pay attention to matters. And you always have a CHOICE about that Zachary.

I’ve heard on the first day of school in fifth grade that some people Bloody Mary is real. Is She real? Same with the scary comments you may see on Facebook or Youtube which is spam. But is it real?
