Thank you!!
Oh yes, werewolves scared the shittles out of me and still do. Don't watch American Werewolf in London or The Howling when you're 11.
Also, in Ghostbusters, the first ghost in the library, the horrible black dog statue animals that grabbed her through the chair, and the stay puft marshmallow man. Flipping heck. Loved it though.
I'm trying to think of non horror movie stuff that scared me...
Ooh, pylons! Yikes.
Scooby Doo, infact any cheap cartoon where everything happened over and over.
Cross Roads for similar reasons.
Kinvig weirdly enough seemed hugely creepy.

Thanks hun! I'm glad we're on the next page now.
I've mentioned it before on here, but the original Blob terrified me when I saw it as a kid. Especially when some old guy prods it with a stick and it sticks to his hand.
Those suits you couldn't get off in The Tommorrow People were also pretty terrifying.
And finally, I can'ty remember the name of it, but I read a short story as a boy about a guy who pisses somebody off at a dinner party and they capture him, cut off his head and keep it alive in a cabinet. That gave me the willies.
Childrens Tv programme. I think it may have been called or involved a group known as The Ulgy Wuglies.
EDIT. The Enchanted Castle 1979 TV series from a book by Edith Nesbit.
I read a book about a boy who comes home from school, and it starts to get dark and his mum hasn't come home. Then in the evening she still isn't home, and hasn't rung, so he looks upstairs and she's dead on her bedroom floor.
Nice.
Who writes this stuff for kids?!

Kids have to learn about finding their mothers dead at some point. 
Look buddy. I grew up with a mahoosive pylon in the field next door. It buzzed with the electricity and had signs plastered all over it with pictures of people dying from touching it.
You try not being scared!!

Mwahaha, I want to kill small children with kites.
Etc.
Oh, Public Information Films. Now you're talking.
Kid falling into lake, etc.

Is that why we never see any pictures of you? Because your forehead is slightly larger than it should be? Or your eyeballs are weirdly distended due to pylon poisoning? 
Hee. Maybe!

Ooo, someone missed the mysterious 1girl1cup photo.
I've never been scard of pylons, but that photo is creepy.

Hmm, I'll see your 'boy who comes home from school...' and raise it with the "Never Go With Strangers" or "Stranger Danger" films my primary school teachers enjoyed "educating" us with on long dark afternoons!
