Some public service announcement in the 80s about the drug epidemic killing young people. At 5 years old I was convinced drugs were going to kill me before the end of the day. I specifically remember my grandmother having to turn the TV off and rock me in the rocking chair. Lol.

For me, it was this made for TV movie called Don't be Afraid of the Dark. There were these tiny little cone headed monsters that lived in the fireplace, and there was this one scene where they were out and trying to kill the wife and they had a straight razor when she was in the shower. I've thought of that scene hundreds of times over the years while in the showe


Did you happen to watch this on Sunday Mornings 'Creature Feature" on WVUE in NO? Watched the remake a couple of months ago and not even close to as scary as the original.

This little bastard right here. He still makes me jump. My sisters used to put their my buddy doll in the bed with me looking me in the eyes so when I would wake up in the morning It would scare the hell out of me. I'm 36 years old and every once in a while I walk outside to go to work in the morning and the my buddy doll is sitting on the hood of my truck.

I was unfortunate enough to catch the original airing of Nickelodeon’s Cry Baby Lane on Halloween 2000.

This thing either freaked out too many kids or was so bad that the network basically burned all traces. Someone found a VHS of the original airing and uploaded it to YouTube a while back.
