I was allowed to watch Horror films (which intrigued the hell out of me) as a kid, but ONLY at my Aunts. So when i stayed there we'd snuggle and she allowed me to choose a video from her huge collection. Or we'd go to the Video rental shops. (i stayed at my aunts every Sat night for a number of years from about the ages 9-12).
My mum never allowed me to watch Horror films, but she did let me watch action 18's films. So Arnie, Stallone etc. For me anyway - Misery. A Nightmare on Elm Street. Hellraiser. Scanners. Probably more, but those off the top my head, especially Misery. Kathy Bates as Anne Wilks scared the **** outta me. Ironically, now it's one of my favourite films.

The one that springs to mind is the witch in The Wizard of Oz, standing on the Tin Man's hut, and threatening to set the Scarecrow on fire.

Don't even!!!! My first ever heartbreak in life. .... I remember my Aunt had 2 films i wasn't allowed to watch (which of course mad me want to watch them more). The Entity. That was always hidden in the top Cupboard. And A Cry for Help The Tracey Thurman Story. Watched both both since, glad i was protected from both looking back. Not sure a young me could handle them films in their rawness and subject matter.

I don't think any movies actually terrified me tbh I watched almost every horror available with my mum and loved them
Although I read IT and was scared to go to bed for ages after |

I watched Salems Lot when I was far too young. Our house had bay windows and my brother had the room with the bay - he hung out of his bedroom window and scratched on the glass of mine - I didn't sleep for weeks after as I didn't know what he did and I thought the vampires were coming
That's the only film that ever really scared me,

Alison's Birthday freaked me out big time at the end.
Also, Ghoulies, it didn't scare me, i loved it, but i'll never forget this VHS cover, it always really stood to a 8/9 year old me -

This one scared me. First 5 mins are scary, last 2 mins are terrifying. It's an easy watch film.
