What scares you?
Something bullshit:
Something real:
Something that might be real:
>>16986781
>Something bullshit:
Alien abduction. It's one of those things that's so cliché now that it seems cartoonish. But I remember how it and the men in black scared me as a kid. I thought the Communion film (before it gets batshit bananas) did a good job of depicting it.
>Something real:
War and the war economy. Sometimes I look at videos of nuclear tests and see it as being the better way to go out. The slow, increasing scale of the industry and business of war that leads to battles being fought over shit that benefits very few, and all the human and environmental damage it brings, worries me deeply.
>Something that might be real:
The child abuse rings. I'm on the verge of saying it is undeniably real, but there's still room for doubt even after Jimmy Saville and others getting busted. It seemed so ridiculous and tinfoil-y up until the last few years. Now it's terrifyingly grounded.
E-e-everything
>>16986781
>Something bullshit: I was scared of chucky for a long time when I was a kid.
>Something real: The dark parts of the ocean
>Something that might be real: Demons, ouija board shit.
>>16986781
BS: The scary stories that get to me are the ones where there's a shadow that shouldn't exist. The cosmically wrong. I don't think there's anything that can violate the laws of physics, but if there is, that's fucking terrifying
Real: I like war guy's answer. Just to offer a different perspective, though, the East Area Rapist/Original Night Stalker was never brought to justice and got away with over 50 violent break ins and 10 murders and he was fucking audaciously evil.
Might be real: I'm kinda terrified that there might be a botnet or something out there distributed in unaccounted space, capable of going nuclear holocaust on information technology should the group responsible for its deployment (e.g. the US or China) deem it necessary. I'm also seriously creeped out by the thought that a similar distributed botnet could be used for making an artificial superintelligence if the right people wanted to.
>something bullshit:
I'm aware sleep paralysis is a very real problem, but the fears it perpetuates are such bullshit to me, but time and time again I succumb to the illusion. It gets more frightening every time it happens.
>something real:
A suicide bomber/mass shooter in a public setting. It could be anyone.
>something that might be real:
The American governments true power, allowing/orchestrating terrorists attacks for the past century to keep the public in fear, retain power and profit from war. Just typing it makes me feel ignorant, but it's hard not to assume.
This ISIS video is scary: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f08_1424123423

>Bullshit
supernatural entities stalking me wherever I go

home intruders killing/raping/torturing me
>could be real
Hell/Biblical rapture. I believe in it being a christian and all but for the purpose of this thread it goes here, I think.
>>16986781
>Something bullshit
When I look off into my hallway at midnight and i feel like someone is there, when I'm showering and my eyes are closed and anything could be watching me, etc
>something real
The fact that someone could easily kill me/break into my home any time they wanted to
>something that could be real
a far more intelligent alien race could enslave us and perform weird experiments on us
>>16986781
>Something bullshit:
Everyone on the earth vanished but me.
>Something real:
Schizophrenia.
>Something that might be real:
Everything being a simulation. I've read some theories about this and it's fascinating but scary,
>>Something bullshit:
Skinwalkers. I never knew what they were until I read creepy pasta of them on this board and they seriously fucked with me.
>>Something real: Owls. I have a phobia of them. I'm not quite sure where it originates but I will break down in tears just from a picture of one.
>>Something that might be real: Aliens. For some reason just the idea that there is something in the uncanny valley that could possibly sneak into your room at night and take you freaks me the fuck out.
>>16986781
1. innawoods shit
2. swimming in open ocean, politicians purposely or inadvertently fucking up everything
3. Fuckin' ayys fucking up humanity
>>16986791
If you think nuclear war would be the "easy way out", I recommend you watch the movie Threads. If you're really, really lucky you'll die in the blast. If you're not, you'll most likely succumb to radiation sickness, puking and shitting yourself to death in the cold and the dark.
>Something bullshit
Scary old people, specifically scary old ladies, supernatural or not.
>Something real:
Being killed and eaten by a dog / bear / puma / etc.
>Something that might be real
The afterlife / being condemned to eternal punishment by a god I ignored.
>>16986876

why scary? trips of truth, he won't do any harm.
>>16986781

Something that might be real: Impending WW3 with nucular weapons involved
>>16990153
Satanic trips :P
>>16989482
Something Bullshit:
I don't think I'm scared by bullshit, but for the effects, I'm going to say I'm scared a lot by my thoughts and they are, most of the time, bullshit. like suddenly going blind or having a limb amputated, etc.
Something Real:
Definitely being murdered or kidnapped, tortured, etc.
Something that might be real:
War and poverty, the apocalypse. Not knowing how everyone I love is and having to live with they dying the most awful ways. Having to fight for my surviving and consequently having to hurt or be bad to people.
>Something bullshit
supernatural shit appearing in my house/following me around. when i can't see into the room across the hall or whatever i feel like something is staring at me from the dark
>Something real
the deep sea, and whatever the fuck is down there. i love looking at the sea but if i get too close i lose my shit
>Something that might be bullshit
fucking demons and shit like that
Beetles and large bodies of water. No idea why. If I can't see the bottom (especially if it's murky) I don't want a bar of it. Other than that not much.
>Maybe Real
Some demon thing in the darkness killing me or stealing my body and soul when I lay in bed
>Real
Terrorist attacks, specifically IS taking over Britain. Seems feasible now because of the dumbass politicians still letting mudslime "refugees" in en masse.
>Bullshit
Monster like abominations coming out of holes in things like the ground and trees grabbing me and dragging me under.
If there are infinite multiverses, there is a statistical possibility for sadistic aliens that could visit and inflict unimaginable and endless torture upon us.
Snakes
>Something bullshit:
any of the stories that have to do with anything being somewhere where there's no plausible reason why they're there or how there's no reason they could have naturally gotten there. there's a leddit pasta about national parks and how deep in the forests there's random shit like staircases or whatever. if i ever saw something like that, even if it was just someone fucking with me i think my brain would turn off. or that baltic sea UFO underwater thing. like if scientists just said it was an old battleship thing that fell off a ship or a shipwreck, i wouldn't freak out. but they say it's just a normal natural geological formation. what fucking natural geological formation shows up like it, you know?
>Something real:
getting killed over random bullshit or whatever, i live in white trailer park trash land and most of the people stick to themselves but i can't shake the feeling that i might walk into the wrong crackhead wrong day and get my face eaten off like that homeless guy in florida or killed in a botched robbery
>Something that might be real:
This is all there is. No aliens, no other life out there, no afterlife, nothing. Once I'm dead I'm dead and once everything's dead it's dead.
Deep in Marrero, a town located on the West Bank of the Mississippi River near the City of New Orleans, was once a lonely stretch of road named Lafitte Larose Highway. The road spanned several miles with one terminus in Marrero and the other in the town of Laffite, with four lanes, divided in two directions by what we locals call a neutral ground. Within the last decade this road was built up with neighborhoods, shopping centers, a McDonald's at its' terminus and is well lit at night. It even goes by a different name these days: Leo Kerner/Lafitte Parkway. Once upon a time, however, this stretch was dark, heavily wooded and became known for strange and unexplained occurances by the locals. To this day there are people who refuse to drive along the old Laffite Larose Highway at night despite freshly installed streetlights, a brand new police precinct built along the way and ever-thickening urbanization.
>>16990747
One such legend that has evolved from this highway was that of the Witch of Lafitte Larose. Near the Laffite end of the highway is a bridge that crosses a waterway known as the Harvey Canal. Immediately after the bridge ends, the highway abruptly stopped with little warning and you were expected to make a sharp right turn to head toward the town of Laffite. This is because the highway was never completed; it was once meant to take you all the way to Larose, Louisiana, with the road to Laffite being meant as only one of its' exits, but environmentalists halted the construction of the roadway in the 1980s. The resulting sharp turn had first become known as the local dead man's curve for its' notorious fatality rate among night time motorists.
>>16990749
Nobody knows quite when the Witch began to take residence on Laffite Larose Highway. She is commonly described as a very old lady who appears so thin that you can make out the curves in her bones. Her skin is pale and baggy and she always appears covered in rotting garments stitched together from a time when pirates and bandits once roamed this countryside. Her hair is always white as snow and her eyes are never seen, instead replaced with voids darker than the night surrounding her. Her first recorded appearance was sometime in the late 1980s when a motorist reported seeing an old lady later recognized as the Witch standing still in the middle of the road. Her eyes were like voids staring him down as the motorist quickly came upon her, never flinching, just standing and scowling at the driver. The motorist was forced to slam on his brakes and swerve to avoid the old woman. When he stopped his car just a few feet ahead of where she was, he got out to look for her, but she had disappeared. Three days after reporting the incident to police he, along with his wife and two kids, were found crashed into a tree. He was attempting to navigate the dead man's curve near Lafitte, late at night, according to the local newspaper The Times-Picayune. All occupants in the vehicle were dead. There was no sign of foul play and no presence of alcohol in the driver's system.
>>16990749
The Witch is known to appear on the highway occasionally sitting in a rocking chair. One motorist reported to police in the mid 1990s that he was driving along Laffite Larose Highway towards Marrero when suddenly he caught sight of the woman, in a rocking chair, sitting in the middle of the road. He attempted to swirve and avoid hitting the Witch at first, but the old hag in the rocking chair began to move in front of the car, keeping pace with the vehicle's speed. She kept rocking away in front of the motorist, flying down the highway with the man as if she were herself inside of an invisible car. When the motorist and his spectral guest got closer to civilization (in those times, civilization began over near Pritchard Road) the woman seemingly disappeared in a small cloud of white smoke.
I personally know the man who witnessed that last event; to this day, he refuses to ever drive down Lafitte Larose Highway. He claims the old woman in the rocking chair haunts his nightmares every evening, beckoning him to return to her roadway. In every single dream he complies and drives down the highway with the Witch in her rocking chair sailing before him. They get to the dead man's curve; she jumps out of her chair with the agility unknown to any human, no matter how good of a shape they are in. She flies right into his car through the windshield, and the last thing he always tells me he sees before awakening into a cold, damp sweat is her mouth wide open with sharpened teeth, eyesockets containing the darkest night, right in his face as if her head were propped on top of the steering wheel. Once my dear friend jolts awake it's clear in his mind what she was looking to feast upon: his soul.
>>16990754
Last night, he must have finally given into her desire. A motorist called 9-1-1 and reported headlights coming from the woods off the side of Laffite Larose Highway. At dead man's curve, police recovered my friend's body inside his mangled car. He was found with his hand upon his face as if trying to defend from an unseen assailant.
>>16986906
falling upwards.... the nightmares that i had as a child were always about falling into the sky

Something bullshit: Isn't everything?
On that note:
Something real: Heights, deep water, not being able to generally succeed with existence

Many American Indian cultures from the woodlands associate owls with death. When you hear an owl during the day it can mean the death of a loved one or someone nearby. When you see one during the day, it can mean your own death. They're not malevolent, just messengers. Seeing them at the zoo or a wildlife refuge just means you're seeing them at the zoo...
>>16986906
I've always been afraid of falling up, too. Just lying on my back looking up outside gives me the creeps. Whatever brisk relief or what have you of imagining being able to be in the air evaporates quick.

>Something that might be real
We're not getting physics right, or maybe the rules will change at some point and we'd never see it coming. Then things we thought debunked or improbable start happening, resulting in very frightening, strange and harmful things going on resulting in a point of no return. Not neccisarily total extinction of humanity and the end of existence, maybe something like Hell and we might never know why or really adapt to make it more bearable. Or maybe we would know the real reason as to why our world was altered and it'd be even more horrifying.
>>16991258

>>16994704
You want to go in your sleep though. It's painless, like how if you snore bad you're not in pain until you wake up. Obviously you want to do it when you're old, but like, you want that more than a car wreck or EAR/ONS returns or something. Don't fear that, it's no problems.
Also, good news, Calvinists are full of as much shit as Arminians, hell doesn't work that way even if it exists

1. That there is something always directly behind me that I can't turn around fast enough to see. My mind imagines it as a black haired woman with a mouth like the scream mask.
2. Dying from a very long (years, if not decades long) illness that is impossible to diagnose until a few days before my death. It is extremely painful, humiliating and debilitating. It has caused me to lose my job, family, friends, and everything I care about. Once it is diagnosed, they tell me it is ridiculously simple to treat and I could have been cured entirely in days, and I would be in perfect health, if only I had been diagnosed sooner. Then I die, completely alone except for the thoughts of what my life could have been.
Also, any kind of dementia, or serious mental illness. Especially if it progresses slowly and I'm fully away that something is going wrong with my brain, and there's nothing I can do to stop it. Without our minds, can we truly be people? What defines a person? Not in the legal sense, but more in the emotional sense. To add onto that, the loss of hearing or vision. I can't handle the thought of never seeing my children's faces, or listening to music
I suppose that being helpless and hopeless what I'm really scared of.
3. Someone sneaking into my room and hiding under my bed while I'm in the bathroom.

Probably the rapture. Being left to suffer while people I love go on without me, even involuntarily, terrifies me.
>Something real
Being surrounded or cornered scares the fuck out of me. Zombie movies get to me for that reason. Also, when there are stare-down moments in creepy pastas I can almost feel the adrenaline rush. Those fucking pictures of people standing at the foot of your bed staring at you unsettle me at such a deep level, it's like painless torture. You know you're fucked and helpless, but the bastard is just going to look at you, prolong your fear and build up your anticipation for what he'll do to you.

Sea monsters or enormous ocean creatures that are undiscovered scare me too, I'm already terrified of the ocean.

I'm terrified of being abducted by stereotypical sci-fi aliens. For example; the movie Alien Abduction, the one about the autistic kid with the camera, scared me so bad I couldn't sleep for a week. I watched 5 seasons of Hunter x Hunter in a week.
Something real: I'm fucking afraid of trains. They're big, loud, and metal as fuck. I always stop 3-5 car lengths away when one is coming.
I'm also fucking terrified of deep water in general. Even lakes and shit freak me out. I mean, i love to swim, but fuck that deep wild water shit. Anything could be down there.
Something that might be real: i suppose I'm afraid of a negative afterlife. I'm not religious, so if there is a hell or a purgatory or whatever I'm fucked.

Anesthesia in general scares me. I had surgery on my hand a few years ago and I swear to God when they put the mask over my face I started dying. Everything just drifted away and the last thing I heard was a female nurse singing and felt them unwrapping the thing I had covering my hand. My last experiencing before waking up was thinking I was being killed and tried to rip the mask off but couldn't move then passed out.

Something bullshit: I'd say bugs, but they can be an actual threat and they scare me more than anything else like dead bodies. Dead bodies are already dead and pose no threat so they don't scare me. So no, I'm not afraid of any bullshit.
Something real: Life. Life is scary, and I was given famine surviving genes in a modern world where that's mostly useless. I wasn't designed to survive in this world. Fading away silently into the night might seem like a bitch move, but it's better if I kill myself sooner rather than later.
Something that might be real: This might just be a matrix that some Josef Mengele type doctor is carefully crafting for me while also drugging me and examining my brainwaves and reactions to drugs and shit. The scary part would be that I would have absolutely zero knowledge or control over it if it was true.

Um, explain?
Bullshit: The government actually having the capacity to mass spy on people, i.e. secret cameras in your house, seeing every one of your personal moments.
Real: Someone breaking into my house or attacking/kidnapping me on the street, especially a serial killer. Radiation - you can't see it, hear it, smell it, touch it, or sense it, but it'll invade your body and fucking kill you dead.

You do realize that Britain is one one of the oldest, and most powerful powers in the world. Next to America. And 200+ years ago they all but ruled the world.
Some stupid sand-niggers aren't gonna take over a power that big. And refugees aren't part of the Islamic State. I honestly don't know where people are getting that from. It's like saying that Jews fleeing Germany and Germanic controlled areas from execution are themselves nazis... That just makes no sense. Think about what you say before you say it.

No, I'm not. You should read more carefully. You're mad because that poster called them sand-niggers, I'm guessing.
Still, ISIS is not recruiting Strian refugees, the refugees are fleeing them. Because, you know, they're getting killed and murdered in collateral damage. Sorry you're a SJW or something that has to have the FCC censor comments before you see them.

>> something bullshit:
Aliens coming to earth war of the worlds style, and using our flesh as fertilizer.
>> Something real:
The conservation of the planet wasn't started anywhere near early enough, and assuming we get lucky enough to avoid asteroid collisions and gamma ray bursts/ supernova radiation, our species is not going to even get the chance to leave the planet. If you think about nuclear war, there is at least a small chance that our species may survive. Whereas our Earth becoming uninhabitable by all lifeforms would most definitely stop our species from going on. The unimaginable feeling of humans as a species not being able to keep trucking along the evolutionary track terrifies me, and depresses me greatly.
Also I will add heights/ freeways to the list of things I'm afraid of. It is a phobia issue for me, not a rational one.
>> Something that might be real:
The complete overshadowing and disinformation tactic of governments/ corporations to keep the truth away from people. I am a huge believer in gaining knowledge and humanity becoming as eutopic as possible (without becoming like 'brave new world'). This seems to be where the world is going, as science gets 0 funding, and war gets sideways eight amounts of funding.
>>17006937
>not being able to keep trucking along the evolutionary track terrifies me, and depresses me greatly
Sorry, but that was the "something real" section. Theories about hypothetical events that otherwise have no reason to exist but that fact that so many people believe in them aren't valid. It'd be like worrying about the rapture, which isn't even part of actual Christian prophecy. It's a dramatization that has no basis in the literature.

Just mental illnesses
>>16986781
>Something bullshit:
This is top fucking bullshit, but it's one of those weird drug-free thoughts you get in the middle of the night.
Aliens brought corn to the Earth to make us vulnerable and fatten us up. Corn depletes minerals from the soil, making us unable to reuse the same spot of soil, which prevents us from growing other crops. It is also found in high-fructose corn syrup, which is a highly addictive fattening agent. Aliens would land in cornfields to make deals with the farmers to up the goods with threats of anal probing their teenage daughters or some shit. I don't know.
>Something real: People. How easy it is to deceive or be deceived. Batshit insane people especially.

Real: The fact that nothing anyone can possibly do will elimimate animal cruelty/torture from the world. No matter how advanced our species gets, we'll always have some socially retarded kids hurting small animals because their parents were fucked in the head. The best we can possibly do is reduce the amount by controlling noncriminal parents and reproduction, which would lead to a whole new wave of things to fear.
Possibly true: Heat death of the universe.

I heard this story from a friend of a friend of a friend. Back in his grade-school years. Its thanksgiving meal day. And the mutual friend is having a chat with one of his teachers. And they go into it about natives and europeans and ancestry. The kid says, well he's this and this and he didn't see it right because of european ill treatment of natives. Then he says, hey did you know i'm the grandson of...one of history's most famous people. She tells another person...and the ball goes rolling. And some agency orders quarantines in the school. Changes pictures up. Even events. The kid died and so did his relatives. Creepy story. Proves that even after leaving europe, europeans still dont change. Anyways happy thanksgiving guys lol. creepy shit.

>Something real :
I'm afraid of dying alone without anyone with me, doing something like a really bad crime or not succeeding at my school. These are three small fears.
Major one is like, of the world economy and shiz and fame. I'm afraid that people will look up to famous people, rather than a whole crowd that is like an needle in a ''haystack of famous people'' that has a different opinion than a popular person or even crowd. And about the world economy part, I'm afraid that human kind won't be able to solve their economical problems. (Like money, the environment, helping hungry people [Africa, Asia, etc] and other stuff)
>Something that might be real :
Some higher intellectual beings (Either aliens or humans) suddenly bombing everything in our world, enslaving everything, polluting everything, destroy every shit in Earth.
Or suddenly nightmares becoming true, and every fear of every person coming after them.
OR..
Random horrible monsters or beasts come to Earth and start eating and killing every human on the Earth. Animals may live, but it is unlikely.

>>16986781

Goatman, AKA skinwalker, AKA Wendingo.
No stories. Nothing. I can't find anything online about the creatures as people here describe them.
Wendigos are spirits that posses humans and make them eat humans.
Skinwalkers are shamen who have taken the path of evil. They commit evil acts to gain powers and can transform into animals with the animal skins they wear. They live in the tribe and people ignore they are one because they don't want them to know they know they are one because they are powerful.
Searching "Goatman" can't bring up any search result sexcept the Greek god Pan and satyres.
I can't find anything about a creature that calls out and draws people away into the woods with the voice of a loved one.
Something that reeks of blood. Or something that takes over human bodies like a puppeteer.
I found out something new recently about them though. Humans who eat a large amount of human flesh develop a condition from a chemical found in human meat. They rapidly develop dimentia, shake uncontrollably, have seizures, and walk in a jerky way and do jerky motions.
I don't know which clever fucking writer firat started it in the /x/ wendigo stories, but the creatures in a lot of the stories do those exact actions. They convulse, gag and jerk like they are vomiting. They definitly act insane like the symptoms of that condition, which is neat since the wendigo myth is strongly connected to cannibalism.

Might be real: I believe that the world has protectors. People that balance out the evil in the world and keep the vast majority of humanity safe. That it's a thankless job and few people know they even exist. That even fellow humans work against them. My fear is that if the world is like this when it's balanced, or as close as we can get it, then what would it be like if they decided that it just wasn't worth the trouble to keep protecting us?

Goatman, skinwalkers and all that jazz, also that creepypasta about the mystery cave got me good.
>Something real:
The fact that we are on the cusp of returning to a pre-antibiotic world where simple infections will routeinly kill people once again because stupid dickheads the world over keep overusing them.
>Something that might be real:
Tecnological advance sleepwalking us into a sort of dystopian future with elements from 1984 and brave new world and where we have become so hopelessly reliant upon machines to survive that turning them off or destroyng them will be tantimount to suicide.
>Bullshit:
Everything is watching me

Heights or the ocean

The NWO/covert ops govt agencies/etc has me in a file somewhere and is keeping an eye on my activities. I've done some shady stuff in my time and have way too big a mouth online.

I was always extremely paranoid when going to bed.
I hate sleeping, especially innawoods, because I can't defend myself in this state.
I sometimes phantasize about a lockable Steel chamber, in which I can fall asleep atleast without rational fears. Having terrorizing thoughts about waking up and suddenly having something in there with me made this phantasy unattractive again.
I wake up from the tiniest unusual sound and grind my teeth so hard that my jaw hurts in the morning.
It is not as bad, when I sleep in day time.
That's why I do night shifts only.

The darker side of shadow governments.

Something bullshit: My reflection in the mirror. I don't know why, but I feel that it's just going to reach out and grab me half the time.
That and I also see my dead catfish eyes as some people have described them.
Something real: That I may well get cancer for no damn reason. Lots of family members get it and it fucking blows.
Something that might be real: Ghosts I suppose. It's part fear part curiosity on that because they could be friendly or something.

VIOLENCE BREEDS VIOLENCE
BUT IN THE END IT HAS TO BE THIS WAY
>>16986781
>Something bullshit: The Terminator outright fucks with me. The idea of someone coming after me and just wanting me dead fucks with me.
>Something real: Mustard Gas. I have had second degree burns before and it fucks with me big time because again the chance of no escape.
>Something that might be real: Resident Evil 1 styled scenarios. Scares me that something could be lurking around the corner any second and slaughter you in seconds.

Space, the Ocean, basically any wide open space where you cannot tell what is there with you, and you cannot see much, plus it seems impossible to escape.
How I would best describe it is the base template program in the first Matrix movie. The thing they're in before they run simulations, and or grab weaponry? The wide, endless expanse where you cannot establish where, when, or the existence of time passing?
I essentially fear the inexistence of knowledge or spacial awareness, and I know that cannot exist, but if you believe in the big bang, which I don't; There possibly could have been nothing at all. Period. Absolute nothing, as far as your eyes can see. Except you wouldn't know you had eyes, and you wouldn't know what breathing was, everything would wipe from your brain if your soul was transported there. That is my greatest fear, losing myself and not being able to find it/me again.
Knowing I am unable to change back from the monster I've become.

Canajoharie, specifically Palatine Bridge. I'm not from here, I moved here from Boston for a few years for work. Quite an adjustment.

Something bullshit: Creepy dolls. Namely ventriloquist dummies, old porcelain dolls, bunraku puppets, and clown dolls. I can't be in the same room as one of those creepy fuckers. I'm convinced they'll come to life and kill me in my sleep. Not just dolls, just uncanny automatons in general. Those uncanny valley threads are literally nightmare fuel for me.
Something real: heights.
Something that might be real: hell. Specifically going to hell

Something bullshit: Wearing head phones in crowded areas and eating with my back to the entrance in a restaurant

Something that might be real: Extraterrestrial life. Just no. No thank you.

thats terrifying, imagine you're just walking down the street and suddenly you feel your skin melt, vision and other senses fade but the biggest burning pain melt your face off
>>17002708
So is it still scary if they sneak out before you come back? --Not trolling--honestly curious if your fear is the event happening behind your back or the implied "monster waiting for you".

Next time read a book instead while you wait.

>bullshit
Stuff that goes "bump", "thump" or "IA, IA, Cthullu Ftang!" in the night
>real
How originally honorable ideologies, such as equal rights and social justice, have become the bane of society, and not many people stand up to this, due to it's inherent """"good"""" nature.
>might be real
Either secret, malevolent societies controlling our modern world, or artificial intelligence.

Same but I want all things that require human operation and maintenance to remain operational through magic and shit.
>>16986781
>Something bullshit:
Bullshit doesn't scare me.
>Something real:
Myself.
>Something that might be real:
I know exactly what is real and what is not real, and there are a lot of things that are indeed real that would scare the shit out of most people, but I am ready to face the destruction of both my soul and body at any time with courage. There is nothing more scary in this world than me.

what is the pic
>>17021458
Pretty scary
Something bullshit: Whatever the fuck the Flatwwods monster was. Drunk aliens are not a thing we need.
Something real: Break in and murderers. Lots of big windows to get in through here, and I've seen a few guys running from the police hide on my property.
Something that might be real: That the voices I hear might be a subtle haunting. I have auditory hallucinations pretty often, I try to tell myself its nothing but fuck I'm worried its ghosts.
