When I was a kid (I’m guessing 5), there was a house nearby where my grandma lived which had a statue of a small dog outside their house. The eyes on this statue were made of glass, and looked incredibly real. I remember standing there staring at the thing, extremely tempted to try and touch the eyes just so I could convince myself that the thing wasn’t alive 🤣. I probably stood there for about 5 min before I finally got the courage to touch it and realized it was just glass.

I was convinced that thing was going to bite me when I touched it.

    The cover art for the Ghoulies movies freaked me out, like I would make a big deal about checking the toilet for those little goblins & needing the main light on in the bathroom so I could be sure they were not hiding in the toilet shadows. I was fine with a lot of other spooky stuff (and love horror now) but those goofy af toilet goblins were a major concern for years.
