I'm the same way, all those fictional monsters don't scare me at all, because I know they're not real. But the real monsters, like the guy blowing shit up in Austin, or school shooters, those are truly frightening.

I work with fedex and ups packages on a daily basis, and I wont Lie, we were all resigned if something happened to blow up in our store.

Yeah, reality is a whole lot scarier than unreality, but its not like we have much choice.

some of the scariest horror stories are ones of real life events. Stalkers, serial killers, psychological abuse, kidnapping.

Admittedly, I really don't watch those "don't go down those stairs, stupid" movies. LOL!

Nevertheless ... don't take counsel of your fears.  Die young ... oh, you failed, didn't you ... so did I.

They say only the good die young, so I'm safe.

Does that make me evil by definition at 67?  I'm not dead yet...

The zombies are real ... people who are alive, but with dead hearts or dead heads (not you).

About the scariest monster I can think of right now is John Bolton as national security advisor.

Some of the scariest horrors I've seen contain no supernatural creatures.   The genuine horror comes from being reminded about what humans will do to each other.

Creepypasta?  (Courtesy of Munch)




Cook pasta 9 minutes.  Heat tomato sauce.  Throw away pasta.  Eat tomato sauce with hot italian sausage.  YUM!
