Hey Pandas, What Is The Movie Or A Book That Traumatized You As A Young Child? (Closed)

Tremors. I remember going to the cinema with my parents to see Jurassic Park, the first film.
Back in those days (I'm 33...so it was in the 90's) they would show two films, one that was popular and another that was not so popular.
So they showed Tremors first and it freaked me out. For months I was scared that a huge worm would just pop out of the ground.

Probably the Chamber of Secrets movie. I was terrified of toilets for a while after that one.

In Harry Potter when voldemort was drinking the unicorn's blood.

Halloween (1978)
I was eleven years old and watched it on my friends HBO at a sleepover. It took years to get some of that out of my head.

hercules when hell gets angry at the end and releses his demons keep in mind i was five i started crying and i was so scred of the moment i hated it and i had nightmares for a weei

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968)

So many entries and nobody mentioned the Child Catcher...hes the *only* thing I've seen on film that has given me actual nightmares!

It remains one of my favorite films, and that man continues to creep me out.

i didnt really have a book or movie that traumatized me, but when i was very young, i kept seeing this HUGE white cat outside my window every night and i never could tell if it was real. When i moved i made sure to have a room on the second floor in case it followed me.

when Dobby died I was 7 BTW do I was super sad 😭😭😭

Coraline

I watched I Am Legend a month ago and I can't stop thinking about Sam now D':

Jaws! Especially because we lived near the beach... Still not a fan of open water!

Bambi - Cute story, cute baby deer. Then, holy smokes! They just bumped off his mom!

Definitely The Mummy! It was on TV most of the times. The wierd insects who crawled inside your skin until you're dead made me think hard about my survival in case they show up!

The Wizard of Oz.

Definitely Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. When the old queen looked at herself in the mirror to ask, ''Who is the fairest...??'' and the cackled maniacally, I dropped my celluloid doll on the movie theater's cement floor and heard a loud cracking sound. My doll's head was irreparably split.

The Brave Little Toaster. The scene where the boiler or whatever it was exploded freaked me out and the entire movie was just sort of depressing.

The Never-Ending Story

the first time I saw it I was about five, I was already pretty creeped out by all the weird creatures but when the kid meets the wolf creature... *shudders* I was already scared of dogs due to an incident earlier in my life but this sealed the deal, even now many, many years later that wolf still creeps me out.

Coraline! This film was sooooo scary! I was 11yo when it was in the cinema ... but I was so traumatized that I hardly slept at night and was scared of buttons for a long while. And the whole time I was afraid that my mom also would turn into such a creepy, wicked monster!

The One And Only Ivan. My dad read it to me when I was really young. If you’ve read it, you remember the part about the bowl made out of a gorilla hand. I love the book now and I don’t regret reading it, but I was a bit young to read it the first time.

I like giant monster movies. As a kid I wanted to watch Gamera vs Guiron. We didnt own it (now I have the entire Gamera collection). My Dad put on a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode of it. The movie was good. The commentary ruined it.
