I get night terrors very infrequently, and I also wake up in the middle of the night and see shadowy figures which scare the shit out of me, but obviously aren't anything. Sleeping sucks :(

Heights and/or falling.

Of course I've been skydiving, and it was awesome, but I'm still acrophobic.

Would that be your unfinished wood or someone else's unfinished wood that you are afraid to touch with your bare hands? :confused: :D

God I walked into that one. :D

I don't understand the fear of balloons.. HTFU

When I was a kid, I blew a balloon in a very small space between the fridge and the wall. It popped right in my face. Since then, I've been afraid of balloons that are full of air.

You mean the American Cockroach? Why do people call them waterbugs. They are roaches.

Snakes. Hate 'em. Not afraid of spiders at all though.

Heights. Open ledges scare me, but I'm not afraid of flying, even enjoy a window seat somewhat.

Spiders
Clowns

But really just clowns. I got my evil clown tattoo as an homage (luckily I have to turn my arm to see it).

I don't like heights, although I'll still climb up stuff and peer over railings at the top of buildings. Not for very long, but still.

I used to be afraid of heights and rollercoasters, but I conquered those, so I can't think of anything I'm particularly afraid of anymore.
