I never quite got over that, myself.
LOL same here.
This graph made me LOL IRL. So true.
When I was a little girl I stopped, turned around and looked at the monsters. They were so impressed that I wasn’t scared of them that they haven’t bothered me since.
What was REALLY odd was when I first moved into my own place I had to face new monsters. “You don’t know me but I’m not scared of you.”
Felt totaly crazy doing it but I can honestly say I never feel compelled to run up the stairs.
I’m not the only one that does that!
I also attempt to walk backwards up the stairs to make sure no monsters are following me up or something even though I know there isn’t any it just kinda became a habit TT-TT
Okay, but one day you’re going to bump right into the monster that’s waiting for you at the top of the stairs.
I was thinking that same thing, darn you for being quick.
That’s why i kinda switch it up. So they my brother asks me why the hell am I almost spinning in circles when I walk up the stairs.
ZOMG LOL U DO THAT 2??? YAYZERZ!!! Im not a freak… well… not a TOTAL freak… o.0
Good that feel the same, too.
Oh, meant *other people. Took me this long to notice my mistake.
so glad im not alone in doing that.
i seriously thought i had a problem…
I Felt The Same Way

So true.
Ummmmmm ‘kay?
all these years i thought it was only me!
i love this graph beacause it makes me feel normal lol
Yay! Makes me feel normal too. Though it’s not monsters I’m afraid of, it’s ghosts. I live in a pretty old house which gives off a really bad vibe at night; I hate going outside of my room when it’s dark.
AND since yesterday I have another reason: the dude whose room is across mine is a TOTAL FREAK O.O He really scares the crap outta me :S He’s weird, creepy, dirty looking, over 40 in a house filled with students, etc etc etc.
omg me too but my house just has that vibe that you think someones breathing down your neck or a ghost is hiding in a corner waiting for you
i’m afraid of zombies…btw..try to *pew*pew* them with your haxxed fingah ghostbusting lazor gun..it helps..a lot..
It does help :’D
I am right next to a canyon, so I here coyotes howling and and rodents squealing as the local owl kills them. Probably not the most comforting thing to hear night. I thought I had a problem because I can’t sleep at night. I wait for the rays of dawn to go to sleep. You hit the nail on the head. I feel normal now!
Oh my, sounds like it REALLY sucks
can’t you get a night job so you can sleep during the day? Or put on some music?
Hmmmm… Does anybody know the psychology behind this? I don’t really fear monsters or anything like that but whenever I go up the stairs from my basement I get the sudden urge to run and my ears automatically perk up.
I believe it would be a primal fear, in this case a fear of the unknown. That’s why so many people never get over their fear of the dark.
agree! when in the dark, i usually freak out the first few seconds because it feels like some sort of ‘presence’ might be there. but when my eyes finally adjust, and i can see again, i’m fine.
That’s why when I’m in the dark, I don’t scan for objects, I scan for movement and listen for any unusual noises. It helps quite a bit.
Yeah, me too. When you’re running, it always seems like someone or something is chasing you.
Probly just evolution.
It’s better to run from the dark to safety than not to and… well, be eaten.
Oh, and for me it’s not just monsters, but aliens. I hate them little gray buggers…
One problem. Evolution is fake?
Then that can only mean that monsters are real.
We need to act fast if we’re going to save humanity, Randy. Grab your Bible and follow me to the bunker.
Epic lol! XD
C-c-c-c-c-c-ounter troll
BURNED!!!
I usually run up stairs in a bizarre attempt to defeat them… I’m not sure when this started, but I usually don’t win gracefully.
Cue inanimate-object-taunting dance.
I thought I was the only person who did that. I feel better now.
Who made this chart, my cat?
Haha, along with mine…
I do this too. Also, at night when I’d have to turn the light off in my room, I’d turn it off then run really fast to my bed and I have to get my whole body under the blanket because I feel like something’s gonna get me if I don’t. Then it get’s hard to breathe so I make a little mouth opening.
This is why I moved a lamp beside my bed. So I can get completely under the blanket before turning off the light.
Wow, I do the exact same thing. o_o That is crazy. I leave the mouth hole there like a cocoon, and after turning off my TV (only source of light), running and jumping into my bed. I also have a recent habit of shaking imaginary spiders out of my sheets… I’m going to be 17 in a week, and this stuff is still going on. O.o At least I’m not alone.
Yeah… whenever I see a spider or something in my room i have to shake out my sheets.
I never did the jumping part ’cause I have slept in a bunk bed for like, forever
. Luckily, most of the time I feel safe enough when I’m sitting on my bed, but I do sometimes sleep in a cocoon for ‘safety’.
I do have to shake the spiders out of my sheets because I now live on the countryside and they are freaking EVERYWHERE o.O (I think I eat 3, 4 spiders/other bugs every night. Not a very pleasant thought.)
I remember I when I went to camp. Mosquito nets were REQUIRED. Not because of mosquitoes but because each tent/cabin had at least 20 daddy long legs and 5 wolf spiders. At night they would come out and no one could sleep because they were just staring at the huge spiders crawling around inches in front of them. The worst part was that the neighboring camp had cabins with lights, air conditioning, and NO SPIDERS!
In the morning I would wake up and get in a runner’s position, then I would run for my life and start whacking any spiders out of my hair.
Glad I am not the only one! LOL I feel so normal now.
Though, for me, where I am on the ground level, I keep thinking that someone is spying on me through the windows. So when I go to the bathroom I hoof it really fast, and run just as fast back to my bedroom. I swear if I ever saw someone looking at me through the windows I’m pretty sure I would have a heart attack and die.
I am now thinking how stupid I would look to the person watching me, frantically running to the bathroom and frantically running back, looking all paranoid…
Same here! I am normal!!!
haha! my story’s just as bad. If i have any objects in my room with a face on them (i.e. magazines, photo’s, clay work, etc.) i always have to flip them over or turn them around because im afraid they’re watching me as i sleep… yeah, i sound really insane now that i think about that. lol
I’m 21 and I still do this. Me = fail at being manly.
*awesome!!
If it’s any consolation, I still do it too, and I’m 25!
I do it too… at 20 years old. XD
try 36……..
Aw, Jim. I still think you’re manly.
Oh well. At least we can be lame together.
aw, i think it’s sweet. i appreciate traces of non-manliness in guys
OMG, I’m glad I’m not the only one. I run out of dark rooms too. I think when I turn around I will see a monster from ‘Pulse’ or ‘Silent Hill’ behind me O_O And don’t even get me started on the creepy, musty basement in my Berlin apartment. I KNOW there are WWII Nazi zombies down there that are just waiting to get their hands on an American like me. O_O
same here, but it’s the Grudge for me. her or just some random unknown thing
samara for me..it SUCKS! i knew i shouldn’t have watched the ring at night..
That’s not a monster, that’s Toothless sneaking behind me…
Thank the lord. I thought it was only me too.
THREAD IN A THREAD: What ‘monster’ is chasing you?
Its always the kid from ‘The Grudge’ for me.
Sometimes the goddamn cat meows too. Which doesn’t help.
I never know WHAT it is chasing me. Just…something. I’m not sure if that makes it better or worse…
I second that. I imagine it as some sort of black mist that disappears when i look at it, just like Doctor Who Weeping Angels. It didn’t help that I read a fiction book about a girl who could see ghosts. In the book there was a spirit that appeared as A BLACK CLOUD. It would take over a sensitive person’s body and use it to murder people. Then it would dispose of the used body by jumping out a window and killing it.
what book is that? it…sounds kinda good…and i’m totally demented
I always thought it was the “Jackle and Hyde” charater from the old bugs bunny cartoon. :\ I never ONCE walked up those stairs. Ran as fast as I could. For years. Seriously freaked out my parents.
Nonspecific creepy little girl.
I always think zombies or skeletons…
for me it’s all the monsters from resident evil, exept really fast
oh yeah, cause the Grudge kid meowed sometimes too. I don’t freak about about him tho, for me it’s the hair, like in the corner of the ceiling, or when it killed that girl in the second movie. it’s less running up the stairs and more looking at the ceiling of every room I enter
deadly mosquito swarm on summers..mutant space zombies on autumns..tree ghosts on winters and samara (from The Ring) on springs..P.S.:springs are the worst..i don’t want to look like those pancake lovers from the movie..:(
omg, this is the funniest one yet!!! i love it!!! so true, why didn’t i outgrow this???
Ahah
So true. I personally feel like there is Anthony Hopkins or the little girl from The Ring following me.
Oh good, then I’m not the only one who does this. Solidarity.
Holy crap, it is not just me.. I AM NOT ALONE! =D
The one day where I don’t actually run up is the day a monster kills me.
Racing yourself to the escalator in the subway is fun, too.
Oh and randomly shaking your hands up in the air and secretly talking in a funny voice to yourself.
Hi, my name is [Bobby] and I am a schizophrenic, but so are you!
notice how all 1426 people voted 5 graphs for this one…..including me.
update: 3634 including me
I always sleep facing my door so no beasts can pass while I’m sleeping.
I prefer not to see the beasts…
But then you’ll be aware of their attack, and still helpless to stop it. Horrible way to go.
I sleep with my back facing the wall because if my back is facing the room I feel like a monster could sneak up on me without my noticing.
I feel more normal now…
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue…
Even if I don’t run to the bed I’m always scared that something’s gonna pull me under the bed if I stand next to it and don’t get into bed fast enough.
AND THEN I’m scared something still might pull me from under the covers from the foot of my bed. I seriously need stop watching so many horror movies. >_>
When I was younger, I used to leap into bed from quite a distance away.
I got hurt quite often, but hey, they never got me!
This is the main reason why my box spring is directly on the floor, so there’s no space under the bed. And I’m 27…
Geez, I’m 36 and I still don’t have a bed frame for this reason. My mom keeps saying she’s taking me to buy one and I keep making lame excuses….I can’t tell her I’m afraid of killer dust bunnies!
And I live on the ground floor of my building, because everyone knows, monsters can only get you if you’re on stairs. No stairs=no monsters
Also I sleep with all 4 dogs on the bed, so if anyone sneaks in, they will bark and alert me!
Heh, my mom already bought me one, I just don’t use it. Last time I moved, she bought my “I’m too tired to put it together right now” line, and she hasn’t seen my bedroom since then.
As far as stairs go, they don’t really bother me unless they’re coming up from an unfinished basement. I really hated the basement stairs in my last apartment, though, because they were right by the door to the other tenants’ section of the basement, where I couldn’t turn the light on because the switch was inside their apartment, and the door would randomly pop open when people walked around upstairs. It just about gave me a heart attack many times. Of course, it didn’t help that the place was over 100 years old and had the second-creepiest basement I’ve ever been in.
Second?
Yeah. First is my mother-in-law’s; you have to go about 20 feet before you get to the light switch, and there are only a couple of bare bulbs and the walls are really dark, uneven stone, so the light doesn’t get very far anyway. There’s a big hole in one wall leading into a crawlspace that’s full of debris (including a stash of empty 60-year-old booze bottles) and an old medicine cabinet on one wall that looks so creepy I half expected there would be a severed hand or something in there the first time I opened it (and my husband said he was expecting pretty much the same thing, and he never watches horror movies.) The sewer has backed up through the drain a few times, and you can definitely tell. Even when the drain is working right, it’s generally pretty damp and cave-like. Plus there’s just a general creepy vibe that’s worse than what I’ve felt pretty much anywhere else. So yeah, the basement in that apartment building was definitely scary, but if I had to pick which one you’d be more likely to find monsters in, it would be my mother-in-law’s.
I have it ten times worse than you guys. I live in japan and I live basically right next to a freaking crapload of tombs and every single little kid here looks like the one from the grudge!!!!!!!! SRSLY plus one night i was walking home from my friends house at night. I HAVE TO WALK PAST A BUNCH OF VERY OLD FREAKING TOMBS!!!!!
and i also live next to a haunted apartment building. right next to my yard is a bunch of weeds and a forest next to those where i keep hearing strange noises. and one last thing is that my house is pretty freaking big and sometimes when i go downstairs theres hollow spots inn my tile floor and it the sound echoes through the entire house and my pantry light is off all the time. i’d like to see someone top that.
Wow. Sucks to be you.
It’s good to know that I’m not the only one =) I also get creeped out if I’m not facing the door. It feels like someone is sneaking in…
I don’t feel so pathetic anymore.
I also can never go without the ‘one quick should check’ just to be sure.
xD i do that too! i feel less freakish now, lmao.
For me it’s not only the stairs but I always have to get my keys ready before leaving my house/car in case some Doctor Who creatures sweep down and catch me!
WEEPING ANGELS OMFG!!!!!
GOD that episode really creeped me out! I kept on walking with my back against the wall for a while, i even slept like that.
I’m normal, yeah!
That is totally what i do. (i like feel some kinda chill in my spine)
I’m not alone? =O
Brothers and Sisters of the HAM (Humans Against Monsters) Unite!
Well, I’m glad im not the only 1 here
I shut my eyes and run fast walk to my room, then shut the door and hide under the sheets. I think I watch too many horror movies.
I don’t know how strange this seems, but I usually stay up 5-10 min. sitting on my bed with all the lights on to make sure no ghosts are gonna sneak up on me while I’m sleeping. I know – that makes no sense -.- Doesn’t really help that I have a shelf full of dolls staring right back at me either. My dad puts up every stuffed toy I have up there, and EVERY freaking birthday I get MORE.
I’d take them all off and make a bonfire but that’d take major points off my self-respect, ugh >.>
hoooboy I’m glad I’m not the only one… Is EVERYONE too embarrassed to actually share this? lol.
Btw, how about if you unwittingly accidentally knock something over or crackle a piece of paper with your rushing gust of wind, you freak the hell out and run 5x faster, because that’s OBVIOUSLY the thing chasing you?
Oh god I know this feeling.
The stairs that lead to my room are open, so when I get to the top of the stairs I usually jump the last bit, out of fear that some freaky girl-monsterchild might grab my ankles and pull me down!
I don’t have the same ankle-grabbing fear when I’m standing near my bed though, probably because the area below my bed is kinda stuffed.
yes, thanks to horror movies, little girls are now scary
And F.E.A.R if you ever played it. That bitch was freaky.
at night, i almost always have to turn on at least one light per room when i’m going in (or i have to turn on a lamp in the room next to me so it can shine in through the door). also, i have to walk as fast as possible and to run up the stairs (especially when i want to go upstairs while i’m in the basement). and sometimes, standing next to my bed makes me feel like something’s gonna grab my ankles / lying on my bed makes me feel like something’s gonna try to feel and grab me from below or like something’s gonna crawl out of the gap below me…
gawd, it’s not easy to write such a bullsh*t in english (i’m german)… XD
ALL. THE. TIME.
OMG something I thought only I did so I never told anyone, but it turns out everyone does it cause they feel like monsters are coming (at least quite a couple of people) I have more of a fear of something like the ground turning into lava or catching on fire, and my bed is the only safe place from it, but it’s basically the same, I guess they’re just instincts we had when we were young that never went away.
Omg… wow i feel so much better cuz im not the only one
Geez… me too!
For me it’s not the dark but the silence that is scary.
Just the not knowing what is there…
I also have a plaster mask in my room. That makes you scream: suddenly you notice a white face hovering (it’s placed on a stick) in the middle of your room…!
Horrible.
still, at age 18 every once in a while when I’m alone at night I mentally set up force fields with my palm facing where i put the force fields so no monsters/demons/ghosts can grab my ankles when i go up the stairs. lol, no, i’m not crazy
Oh – that so happens to me!
I sleep in a bunk bed at the top, so when I go into my bedroom, I basically run and jump – performing an Olympic sport – up my ladder and jump on my bed.
Has anyone got a bed that doesn’t extend to the wall? There’s a drop near at the end of my bed, so I think I’m going to wake up in the middle of the night and see a scary person staring at me peering over the end of the bed. *shudder*
There are no stairs in my house, but the hallway is just as scary and the darkest place in my house. There are three rooms and the hallway leads to all of them with the living room on the other end, so when I go from my parents room to my room and stair at the hallway I always do a quick sprint to get away from it and then jump on my bed.
