Dr Who scared me too.

You mean the giant spiders that the occultists conjured up? That traumatised my arachnaphobic sister! (I might be running away with myself here, but didn't Jon Pertwee turn into Tom Baker at the end of that series?) I didn't find the spiders a frightening as the giant maggots in "The Green Death", mind.

The episodes with the spiders.....Anyone remember them? My mother had to drag me out from behind the sofa 30 mins after the programme ended!

yes, noseybonk scared me witless!! so creepy!!

wurzlegummage was scarey too.

and i vaguely remember a schools programme we used to watch at school, i think it had Towers in the title and it was real spooky....

As a kid i remember watching a kids TV show called 'the little vampire'(or something like that), and that really freaked me out!!

The wheelers from 'Return to Oz' really scared me as a child...and still do now! My brother used to put my roller boots on his hands and chase me round the house!!! He doesn,t still do that now tho, ha ha!!

Grott Bags also used to scare me to death!! There's somebody at the door, there's somebody at the door! lol!

The original 1963 Dr Who used to scare the living daylights out of the 7yr old me.

It was the theme music that sent me scuttling behind the sofa.

And if the Daleks were on, I used to ensure that my dad was also sat between me and TV.


The film the Exorcist terrified me forever. Even now I won`t have that film in the house, not even on DVD. My kids who have now all grown up think the film is hilarious and outdated, but all I remember is how badly it scared me, and I can`t even touch the box in a DVD shop.

Dr Who, especially an series when I was a kid (in the late 60's( that had abominable snowmen in it.

The X files was scary in places.

As a teenager it would have to be some episodes of a programme called (I think) Thriller, with different stories every week.

I had forgotten about noseybonk! I was really scared of it too.

I've just watched some on youtube and it really is quite scary.

^ lol

i didn't like the demon headmaster
& i used to hide behind the sofa when wolf came on gladiators [apparently!]
but i also had a shirt with his face on....strange....

Dr.who-I was terrified of the Daleks and the Cybermen! -still am!!

Ghostwatch. I thought it was real.

Quatermass the original

First post on this forum.

Hammer house of horror and the darleks (oringinal) used to scare me. I'm glad I'm not the only one who was afraid of the Phantom Raspberry Blower.

A PROGRAMME CALLED QUATAMASS!??LATE 50S EARLY 60S?BLACK N WHITE TELLY THEN, CANT REMEMBER MUCH ABOUT IT, BUT MY BROTHER MADE FUN OF ME FOR BEING SCARED.(I KNEW HE WAS TO )
