[quote=Anonymous]it was the Wild West in terms of TVs and movies in our house. I had a bunch of older siblings who were left in charge of the younger kids and they made us watch tons of scary movies. I could never just get on my bed, I had to run and jump on it so whatever was hiding under there wouldn’t get me. Somehow I grew up ok. I actually like horror movies and am not too scarred. Ok, so when my husband’s out of town I still jump on my bed, but he doesn’t have to know that. I think the key was my siblings made fun of how stupid the movies were and so I knew even as a little kid it wasn’t real since. My movie-critic brothers and sisters pointed out every. single. fake looking or dumb thing so much that the movies seemed more like comedies that anything else. They were just being snarky, but I think it served a much bigger purpose of making the movies seem like stupid skits. The only one that scared us all was the Exorcist. And of course I live in DC and know those damn stairs are there...[/quote]
