I was a really easy to scare child.
I remember being like 6 or 7 and being really afraid to swim to the far end of the pool alone while taking swimming lessons, because this Yu-Gi-Oh card would always pop into my head.
Also, does anyone else remembers this final boss from a shmup called Strikers 1945 2? I recently discovered it was not some weird nightmare I had as a kid.
Considering like 80% of my movie library is gory horror movies now you'd never guess I was insanely scaredy as a child. I used to try to play the original Far Cry on PC but would get scared whenever people shot at me, which in a fucking FPS you can imagine happened somewhat often. I remember playing the This Is Sparta Techno Remix on loop in the background with the game volume off to try to be less scared of gunfire lmao
