I remember a time when I was about 6 or 7 years old when I was the most scared I have ever been up to that point. I was trick or treating around my neighborhood with my mom and my older sister on Halloween. I remember turning the corner of the street and hearing a loud revving engine noise. I looked to see where it was coming from and saw two probably high school aged boys all dressed in black, waving around a running chainsaw. They were yelling and running through the street scaring everyone around. In my mind, I thought that they were monsters and thought that they were going to kill me. I was so scared I hid behind my mom, and I might have even cried a little- it was that scary! To this day I still will not watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre or any other slasher movie that prominently involves a chainsaw after having that experience.
Another time when I was very scared was more of a surprised scared then an actual terrified scared. I was with my family at the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas at one of the hotels (It's name is currently escaping me). My sister had really wanted to go so we took an afternoon out of our vacation to go see all of it's attractions. When we were there I was looking around in the gift shop for a trinket, when I took a step back and bumped into someone. I turned around to say, "Sorry!", but before I was able to I got a good look at who I had hit. It was a 7 foot tall man dressed up as a Klingon! My heart literally dropped. My breath was taken away and I ran to hide behind my dad. It was one of the times I was most scared ever that I can remember. I mean its not everyday you run into a very tall, and intimidating looking alien!
