Find out how Wooing and Pooing come together in Episode 11! In this ep we'll be going through some of our childhood fears from movie scenes to cemeteries and more! Listen with your night light on!
What's up? Y'all it's me. Ashley.
Aaron:Hello? Nostalgic friends.
Garret:I'm Aaron and it's me, Garrett. And you're listening to nostalgic podcast.
Ashley:no.
Garret:In this episode, we are talking about the things that scared us as children.
Aaron:uh, still have nightmares
Garret:I think it's perfectly normal
Ashley:I couldn't tell if I was blocking a bunch of stuff out, but I was like, I wasn't scared of anything, which is kind of scary on its own. Like why? I didn't even have a healthy amount of fear. And now I'm scared of everything, so great.
Aaron:now you realize how scary life really is. I
Garret:know. Well, knowledge is
Ashley:power ignorant, man, which In many ways wanna live back there, now. I'm like, anxious, worried about everything.
Garret:mm-hmm I get it.
Ashley:so yeah, we're gonna cover a couple movies, scenes that scared us. Some, what I feel like are normal fears as kids, but. Some of'em might be a little weird. I don't know. We'll see. We'll see.
Aaron:I feel like you're judging me already.
Ashley:was trying not of might have
Garret:this episode, it's a non-judgment zone. Aaron.
Ashley:I'm not agreeing to that still a judgment zone.
Aaron:well, I always have to ask just to make sure,
Ashley:I think you should just assume that we are judgy.
Aaron:I don't think I have like really any judgemental stuff here
Ashley:I think like you said, when you explain it, it'll probably make more sense, but just saying I'm like, okay, this I'm definitely ready to get into that one we do have some nostalgic news. Erin, you wanna kick us off on
Garret:that?
Aaron:Do you guys remember the show quantum leap?
Garret:Yes, I am so excited about this.
Aaron:me too. I saw the first trailer from it the other day. It looks like it's gonna be really good.
Garret:It does. It I loved that series.
Ashley:just confirming from last time. Reboot, not revival,
Garret:I think actually it's both, right, because it's a new cast, do everything. However, it takes place in the same story as Scott B's character. So I think it's sort of, of a revival and a reboot at the same time. Cause I don't know that they've confirmed that Scott Baula in it. And the guy who played, his sidekick is now deceased. Yeah. The guy with the
Aaron:remote, yeah, that was Ziggy. Is that his name? Ziggy? I knew it was something like
Garret:that. Yeah, no, the remote was Ziggy cause S like Ziggy's always having issues. I'll be watching.
Aaron:I also saw they are, remaking Roadhouse with Connor McGregor
Ashley:who's con McGregor. what are you serious? Yeah. I don't know how that is.
Aaron:He's a UFC fighter. He's Irish. Oh
Garret:my God. That douche bag.
Ashley:Oh, no. Is that oh, no,
Aaron:I cannot picture his voice as I just wait. He's the main character.
Ashley:He's Patrick Swayze. I'm assuming. I
Aaron:think so. I don't know. Maybe I should get a, a little more information on that. I also saw that, clerks three is coming out next month. that I do have a confession. I've never seen clerks two, but,
Ashley:I don't think that's a,
Aaron:I didn't like the first one, to be honest with you. I didn't
Ashley:word, it's a cult classic. It's very, it is, a certain type of humor. it's one of those that I don't think it's like, oh my God, you didn't like it.
Garret:Yeah.
Ashley:But the previous looked good to me. I thought they were making fun of themselves and of course, Jay and silent, Bob, they bringing back because you, can't not. Right. So I think that's always fun. So I'm excited when I watch the trailer today, I was like, yes. I'm in all right. A couple
Aaron:more, I don't know if it's a reboot or revival, but they're redoing the original law and order. I thought was pretty cool. they're remaking. Hell razor.
Ashley:I thought hellrazor could be good now. I thought they were just okay. I always thought
Aaron:they were pretty creepy.
Ashley:The graphics and stuff now are probably gonna be amazing.
Aaron:Speaking of nightmares and things that scare us, the kids they're remaking tele tubs. Ew. I know Wasn't that the creepiest thing ever?
Garret:No, dude, next Barney. Revival's gonna come back lets
Ashley:tell us didn't even like. English. They just made noises or something. They were weird. Yeah. The weird baby
Aaron:son,
Ashley:Winky Winky. It was scary. It was scary, but it scary, but it's something too, like what deal with the devil that these people make that their tele Toby's took off with little children. I'm like, what did they getting that I'm not getting?
Aaron:I dunno. so ask, what do you have for nostalgic news?
Ashley:So I also have, a reboot and it is, the, live action. Little mermaid. They cast, um, not to be mistaken with Hallie Berry, because at first I was like, she will up there to be doing this., but it. Hallie Bailey., Melissa, McCarthy's gonna be Maleficent, which I'm super excited about, cuz I think she's gonna be brilliant. they'll have voices from Aquafina David digs. so that looks good. I just saw the pre before. It was very vague, but enough to get you like, Okay. I see what they're doing here. Mm-hmm
Garret:yeah, yeah. I don't normally watch, movie trailers anymore because I like to be surprised, but I did hear that this one was more of a, teaser I think she looks fantastic. the only thing I was worried about was I was like, how red is her hair gonna be? I think she looks great. It looks like it's gonna be awesome. So I'm pretty excited.
Ashley:it looks good. I loved a little mermaid, and then my other one was, I don't have social media, but somehow I saw a blip of a blip saying that there is a mash app on TikTok, which if you remember, I don't know if guys played this, but as girls we played where it's like mansion apartment shack house, and then it would be like, who your celebrity husband ends up being. but can y'all confirm or deny if that's a thing?
Aaron:I have no idea. I don't do TikTok
Garret:Now that you bring it up, I remember the mash thing. But not very vividly.
Ashley:Yeah. you'd end up like, oh, you're gonna live in a shack and you're gonna marry Devin Salah, which is obviously who made my list um, we got married. We lived in a shack once. It was very intimate. there were other categories, but I can't remember what they were, when it said mash, it just brought back a whirlwind of like, oh my God, we used to play that. And they've revived it.
Aaron:when you said mash, I thought you were talking about the old show, like the military hospital show. I'm like, oh, a mash app. Cool.
Ashley:yeah, That's very nostalgic news So anyway, if anyone can confirm or deny who is a tick talker, cuz we clearly are not, and how do I play without having TikTok? So that's my nostalgic news.
Aaron:I love it. I guess from cool stuff, we'll go into some depressing news. celebrity deaths, obviously queen Elizabeth just passed away.
Garret:dude.
Ashley:That's crazy to me. when did it say she was born 1923. The things that this person has seen,
Garret:Yes.
Aaron:Other deaths. Ivan, Trump passed away, Olivia Newton, John
Garret:yeah, that was surprising.
Ashley:How did we not talk about that one already?
Aaron:and There's a couple more people. It's hard to really go from the queen and Olivia Newton, John How do you say her name? Ann Hesh. Oh, Ann hay. Yeah. Oh Anne hay. Yeah. She passed. That was weird.
Ashley:so Olivia Newton, John, what? I looked her age up. She was a little bit older and I think she'd been battling cancer, but Anne Hesh was mid fifties.
Aaron:What is she most famous for? Probably. Dating Ellen, Ellen DeGeneres, girlfriend. yeah. That's so that's the first thing that comes to my mind, but I know she's been in some movies and stuff. She was,
Garret:but I just can't think of anything.
Ashley:she seems like an artsy actress, right? So it's probably like indie artsy things.
Aaron:And now from this to birthdays, that are make you feel old yeah. Paul Walker. Would've been 49 this month.
Ashley:Okay. I bet he still would look amazing. Oh, I
Aaron:know. Be probably still be the beautiful man dude, to hang around. Beyonce is 41. Charlie sheen turned 57 57.
Garret:That's
Ashley:it? Oh, I know we're having a that's it moment again? I thought he was older too. Really?
Aaron:don't think so. Don't know. It's gotta be all the cocaine. Somebody we spoke about earlier, Kevin Smith, a director of clerks 51 this month. Martha Stewart is 61. Whitney Houston. Would've been 59. Swayze. Would've been 70. Damn I know John Stamos, uncle Jesse. He's 59 this month. My number one, boo. Shania Twain is 57 this month, man. and Michael Jackson. Would've been 64. Well, 64, the theory he is, he's still alive, Would've been is 64. We'll let you
Ashley:guys make the decision. Happy birthday, Michael, wherever you are.
Aaron:That's for another podcast.
Ashley:can you imagine if he was still around? He was spooky looking. At the end there, like his face for real
Garret:man, he was like a live
Ashley:scarecrow. Imagine getting haunted by Michael Jackson. my God. You would hear it, like
Aaron:uh,
Ashley:That's a good segue into what we're talking about again tonight, which is scary stories. No doubt from our childhoods or things that scared us in general movies shows
Aaron:yep.
Ashley:who wants to be the brave one? And tell your fears to the world?
Aaron:Yeah, I'll go. I don't care.
Garret:oh really? Cause you jumped out right there.
Aaron:Well, I really thought Garrett was gonna hop
Ashley:in there and just, yeah, he was giving us the opportunity
Garret:I was letting y'all go first.
Aaron:So as a kid, my biggest fear, which I've overcome now and they don't scare me at all was spiders.
Garret:you have overcome that. Yeah, they don't
Aaron:bother me at
Ashley:all anymore. Oh, he gets into all kinds of critters. I mean, yeah. I catch
Aaron:snake, spiders, bats,
Garret:whatever reptiles I can do bats. Sure. Spiders.
Aaron:Yeah. In Kentucky. Yeah. We have, black widows brown recluse. I usually kill those when I find those, but the big Wolf spiders, I used to kill'em but now I realize they're not gonna hurt me. And they hunt the ones that I don't like. When I worked on the military base over here, we would work in these target pits and we would lift them up and there would literally be 30 black widows on the bottoms of these. Yeah. So we used to keep count. Like we would take a hammer and just like D D, D, D, D. And we would be in the hundreds sometimes.
Ashley:That's crazy. Yeah. I'm with you. I don't want them on me. but if they're in the house, I usually try to catch'em and let'em go. But if it's poisonous, I'll kill it. I'm like, This is nature, bro. I'm sorry. Sorry.
Aaron:You or me's not,
Ashley:and this is not your day, Same with snakes. I don't mind snakes. I don't want them on me, but if they'res vicinity, I'm
Garret:Maybe that's just sassy snake in me.
Aaron:Sassy snake.
Ashley:we have become one.
Aaron:when I was in the third or fourth grade in science class, they showed us this video on black widow. They would do these reenactments of people putting on their shoes and there would be a black widow in their shoe and bite em on the toe. Then it would show'em on the way to the hospital it was like, ER, or, Grey's anatomy where Theyre like, this is what we trained for people. They're bringing these people in and I just freaked out. They showed somebody bringing in their sheet off the clothes line and it had a black widow on it. I still check my shoes before I put them on, just because of this video that I watched, in third or fourth grade.
Ashley:Did they show any real life bites? No
Aaron:what they did show was how they get the anti-venom out. And there was this family they just looked like a normal family, their house, but in their basement, they had thousands of black widows, in these little containers and they would get their venom out. And that just scared the absolute crap out of me as a kid. Uh, yeah. after working, landscaping and, being in different places where spiders are crawling all over you, you just get used to it.
Garret:getting, I guess that makes sense, but still, I would quit. I would be like, no, this,
Aaron:I remember when I was deployed, in the desert, we would see those big camel spiders. Those were pretty,
Garret:what the hell is a camel? No, actually I don't wanna know what a camel spider is. Is it like the, it sounds like it's as big as a
Ashley:camel. Well, cuz Garrett, when you looked up Australian ones, remember they were like really big,
Garret:they are and all of them are poisonous. Yeah. The camel
Aaron:spiders are these weird spiders, in Iraq and Kuwait and they walk sideways kind of like a crab and they're big and they're nasty looking
Ashley:Okay. Spiders, no fear. Not that you've gotten over. Good for? Yeah. I'm
Aaron:good with it now. Yeah. I'm good. I'm good. Yeah. Good on you.
Garret:So when I was a kid, my mom took me with her to see her friend in Indiana and they lived on a farm. As we were going to bed, we turned on the light and this huge spider, it was as big as my hand or bigger. Go Curring across the wall, being like, hi, I'm gonna eat you tonight while you sleep
Ashley:but it's just letting you know I'm here.
Garret:Yeah. And I was like, oh my God, They have eight eyes, eight legs and they just wanna kill you and suck out your soul then go on with their Merry day. no, thank
Ashley:you, So can we assume that was also one of your childhood fear. No, what would
Garret:give that impression?
Ashley:you need an outright say it. I Mm-hmm
Garret:Yeah. Spiders are crazy. I was also scared of, the furnace in my basement. It was one of those old school furnaces it looked like you used to shove logs in there. We didn't, but my mom was telling me this actually recently that when they bought this house, the furnace wasn't upgraded. So it was like really old, you could see the fire in there. it just looked creepy. It was big. Like, like home alone type mm-hmm home alone looked actually nice. Mine looked like the tin man, was high on acid and melted down and then had a fire pit in his stomach. That
Aaron:would be scary
Ashley:And actually sounds kind of cool,
Aaron:But uh, yeah, actually like, whoa, cool.
Garret:Our basement was also, half done. So the tiles that you used to have in schools, the floating ceiling tiles Uhhuh so they were those, but they were ripped out you would see spiderwebs, hang in dust. And these ripped out parts. And my dad my real dad was, one of those guys who always had half done projects. So everything was just weird. It had the wood paneling and concrete everywhere. It was scary. I remember my mom would turn off the lights when I was down there getting laundry or whatever. And I would bolt upstairs so fast.
Ashley:That's what I was gonna ask you is was it a basement that you had to go into? Yes. So laundry is a, yeah. Laundry was down there, down there. This is like home the
Garret:furnace. It was a decent size basement it was just creepy
Ashley:as hell. Okay. So imagine if you lived down there We lived in our basement, our half finished giant furnace basement. Wait, you
Garret:and Aaron did, or yeah,
Ashley:half of it was concrete and my dad, paneled some of it and put carpet in, but we still had this scary staircase that just like, you're talking about, you had to run up because I was always scared that something was gonna grab my feet and pull me back down. That's a big thing for me you have to move really fast and you lift your legs really quick because something will grab your ankle. If you're not quick enough now it never happened. I didn't even feel a brush, but it still could. I'm not above doing it to this day. Yeah. So I'm with you there. That was definitely on my list already was, the furnace in the basement, the unfinished basement part I also had for me, it was generally just basement and at doors that go to nowhere.
Garret:what do you mean?
Ashley:Have you ever just seen an attic door, one of the little weird doors, in your closet? Oh, I love
those.
Aaron:Yeah. We had one.
Ashley:I don't like that. I don't know where that goes. Well, I'll check those
Aaron:out. Like in all, like with Airbnb or never internal houses, I always go up in there. I'm like, whoa, what's
Ashley:in here. My imagination is too crazy to be like, I'm gonna end up in Narnia. I do not have time for that right now I'm not doing it. And then basement doors, are always scary and scary movies. There's always something rattling behind it. There's always something coming up the stairs. I'm like, no, we just don't open.'em like, just leave them be just doors, random ass doors.
Aaron:yeah,
Garret:I forgot that. We had one until you said that just
Ashley:now. they lead to dark places. I guess that really all encompassing, which I think most of the stuff I'm gonna talk about, my biggest fear is probably and still was the dark. Dark addicts, dark basements. I don't like corn fields at night. Not because children with the corn because they're freaking scary. I don't like the woods at night. I don't like anything at night.
Aaron:I do, I,. love,
Ashley:oh, it terrifies me, Have ever been in like really dark open water. Mm. I feel like I'm like a tiny little minnow. That's Sharker whale's just gonna come up and go. That
Garret:is scary.
Ashley:I mean, I definitely still wanna swim with whales, I'm gonna my wetsuit. So the dark I don't really watch horror movies now because I don't wanna be scared of my own house. And if I do, you're gonna see me walk down the hall and flip on every light switch on the way. And I'll be like, sorry about it. And I'm not turning them off.
Aaron:I'm gonna be the old grumpy dad, like every damn light on in this house. Is on
Garret:right now.
Ashley:I know. I have to peek, click, click, click, click down the hall.
Garret:shouldn't show me that reboot of hell Razr
Ashley:the show. Aaron, what's another one you got?
Aaron:So I had a weird fear. of, escalators.
Ashley:this is a trauma fear.
Aaron:So we were in a crowded mall one time and my shoe got stuck in the escalator and had stopped the crowd is pushing me and I can't go anywhere my family's leaving and I'm trying to tell them Hey, I'm, I'm stuck. so Gary, you know how the front of your tennis shoe comes off that part got stuck and it sucked the soul in there and it stopped the escalator and people were pushing me, like trying to push me out
Ashley:of the way. Right. You're stuck, the crap's gonna swallow you up. And everybody it's just compiling behind you.
Garret:oh my God. That's a legitimate fear
Aaron:Yeah. Every time we go into escalator, I'm like, pick up your feet, I just always picture what if it didn't stop?
Ashley:Luckily they have safeties, but that hasn't always been there. You could have had a mangled foot.
Aaron:Yeah. So that was trauma fear, yeah. Still counts. Totally
Ashley:good stuff. Especially after that, I'm sure it was like, no, no, I'll take the stairs. Okay. Garrett, what do you got?
Garret:we covered all of mine
Ashley:I mean, I had one last one, it's still gonna go with a dark thing probably, but cemeteries just were not. I jam there was a house in Pennsylvania that was across the road from the cemetery and I'd always make a point to say, I would never live there. my imagination is too much for that. I don't know. What's walking around there at night. I've seen lady and white.
Aaron:I have a cemetery on my property.
Ashley:Do you know that? No, that's scary now. I'm never coming over.
Garret:Wait, wait, you have a cemetery on your property. Yes. This
Ashley:is how cold guys started. Yeah, so
Aaron:we know 13 acres and there used to be a church on part of the property and the church burnt down twice. the cemetery is still there.
Ashley:Mm-hmm no, thank you.
Aaron:Yeah. There's graves from like back in the, late 18 hundreds
Ashley:so dad and I recently went and looked through one that was on a field and we were wondering whose job is it to maintain that? Cuz, that seems so weird to me that you can buy a plot with a cemetery on it and not have to maintain it. And people's relatives buried in your yard. Like it's was weird.
Aaron:Before we bought the property, that was one of our questions. If we were gonna be required to maintain that cemetery, but the church that burnt down has rebuilt a couple miles away and they come back and mow it. Oh,
Ashley:okay.
Garret:Is it close to your property? Far away from your property?
Ashley:can the ghosts from there reach your house and have them, right.
Garret:Is it arms laying
Aaron:like take a Halloween straw back there,
Ashley:you know, until no don't nuts. No, aaron, do you remember the. Behind memo's house. Oh yeah, that's on my list of just weird cemeteries, because I feel like it had a lot of kids graves in it. they were unmarked. rocks. And my grandma said, back in this time And this may have been something she made up, I don't know but it was a lot of like devil stuff if one of'em was born with like a full set of teeth they were like, this is the devil
Aaron:Yeah. I was back there maybe 10 years ago I was walking around on Thanksgiving
Garret:That sounds, like, a mash up between children of the corn and Polter
Ashley:guys.
Aaron:and pet cemetery.
Ashley:Yes. And so the other one I was gonna ask you about Aaron is, did you ever go to hell's gate? Yes.
Garret:What is hell's gate? Oh, gates
Aaron:of
Ashley:hill. You're right. I put hell's gate, but it's a cemetery out in the woods that people would go to, to freak each other out or party. I remember going there at night. Nobody would get out of the car. We're like, no, you go, you go. And this is how horror movies start. Right. We all joke around and then somebody finds a pentagram and then the all hell breaks loose. And here we are And then I guess the last thing on the cemetery fear is one time. Our parents tried to leave us in a cemetery at night cuz they thought it would be really funny. it is something that I have talked about in therapy. mom always says oh we were kids raising kids. And they just like to play practical jokes. Even though I always said Hey, this is my biggest fear. I'm scared of cemeteries. They were just like, it'll be funny. So what they did was they pulled up to a tombstone and put their headlights on it. They got out and they were acting like they were trying to read it. And saying. Get closer. Can you read what this says? So they could run back to the car and jump in the car and take off without us. what
Garret:the hell man.
Ashley:But,, we wouldn't get far way enough from the car. So when they tried to run back and beat us in the car, we pulled already in it, like with the doors locked, but yeah, it's like your biggest fear and then the people are supposed to protect you just drop you off and, and run away from you. Yeah. Trust issues.
Aaron:I have a vague memory of that. I think I've repressed it all and stuffed it all down
Ashley:Right. But it was a big fear of mine. if they would've dropped you in the black widow pit, you would've remember, I feel like I was always very vocal about cemetery scare me. I would never live there. And mom even said, she remembers me saying that. well then you have no excuse.
Garret:Do you think they were trying to make you overcome your fear, but they did it the wrong
Ashley:way. I think they thought it was gonna be hilarious to see us chasing the car. Yeah. they think it that far. They're just like, like my mom and I do, you've met me and my mom. We think things are gonna be funny and then they're not. all right, now that we've what do you call it? Grease to the for real
Garret:the gears.
Ashley:Yeah. Grease the gears were the bearings or whatever. Obviously I don't do mechanical things. I dunno what I don't know. Moving on to shows that scared us
Garret:So. We're doing shows slash cartoons and how they scared us, made us, tremble or, so I have three and they're all very different do you remember punky? Brewster? Yeah. Yes. She actually had two shows. She had her main show where she was live action and then there was a cartoon. So this is not the cartoon. it was all the life lessons that they always had in these shows. do you remember when the girl was like trapped in the refrigerator?
Ashley:in punky, Brewster
Garret:In punky, Brewster, I think she was alive, but she had trapped herself and they found her,
Ashley:what are you talking about? That's terrifying.
Garret:It completely was, I think they were trying to terrify you yet. Give you knowledge to be like, Hey, not a smart idea to lock yourself in the fridge, so it was one of those, but then they also had, I remember, and this is so back in the day when like parents would leave both children and the older sibling would watch the younger one. So punky was at the house and I think it was her best friend was watching her cousin or her little sister and the little sister got into the cabinets under the sink and drank Downey and then like, passed that. Oh,
Ashley:Draino, I don't
Garret:think it was Draino. Cause I think Draino would actually kill you.
Aaron:Like fabric softener, I like, they wanted to do bleach, instead of fabrics often, or but they were, they like too
Ashley:hardcore, too. Hardcore mm-hmm let's soften it up a little bit.
Garret:Literally but I kept fearing. That They were prepping me for like situations so if I would see a refrigerator, I would look in at making sure no one's in there
Aaron:or making sure when you reached in for something and it didn't close behind you. mm-hmm
Ashley:So as you were saying that I had a flashback of almost getting locked in a freezer once at our mammal's house. Yeah. I didn't know any better when we were playing hide and seek, but it wasn't one that was plugged in either. It was a deep freezer and I got into it and I think it got stuck for a second, but it wasn't sealed but later in life I was having to process that, like you could have died if
Aaron:you would've watched punky, Brewster, you hit that
Garret:freezer. I thought so. Was it like good or is it bad?
Ashley:Yeah. I don't know. I get their intention, but I'm also like, gosh, and I wonder we all have so much anxiety. Like I'm like everything's gonna kill me. No, that's pretty terrifying
Aaron:One of the shows that really scared the crap outta me. Do you guys remember the show called the hitchhiker.
Ashley:Vaguely.
Aaron:It was almost like a tales from the crypt this guy was hitchhiking, he would either tell a tail or the people that he was hitchhiking with would tail a tail it would come on real, late at night, I remember some of the episodes, but that's not really worth going into, I just remember it was always some weird twist at the end,
Ashley:so you don't have a specific one. It was just in general, you remember the show giving you bad vibes?
Aaron:the theme song scared me, the idea of hitch hiking it all just freaked me out.
Garret:some of it sounds familiar, but I can't picture anything,
Ashley:I'm also getting blips. I do remember seeing the beginning of it, but I'm wondering if you watched it now, if it's like really cheesy
Garret:probably
Ashley:one for me, which was most of them, but specifically one episode. It was unsolved mysteries. Watching that as a kid specifically the alien episode, I Refuse to believe in ghosts and aliens, because I do not want them to be real. It's not that I don't think they could. My denial is just like, I will not let you think of that. Ignore them and they'll go away. Exactly. No, they can exist because I won't let them. So the alien one, they drew pictures of them with the giant eyes. And I just remember my window was very scary after that. I'm like, they're gonna come and take you away. They're already here. but unsolved mysteries you can't leave all that open. I need a conclusion. Like I need to tied up an little
Aaron:bow.
Garret:Yeah. I actually wrote that down as well. So that was, one for me. I remember writing it out and I was like, what specifically was about USOL mysteries that I was scared of. And I was like, everything. The opening music was scary. Pat say Jack, his creepy off putting demeanor,
Aaron:was it, pat
Ashley:yeah. I thought it was that weird gaunt guy
Garret:not pat say Jack. oh my God. I got that totally wrong.
Aaron:We're not asking for vows,
Ashley:bro.
Garret:no, no, no, no, no. God, what is his name? He was on airplane.
Ashley:kind of flat toppy.
Garret:Yeah. And he had that voice.
Aaron:Caddy shack.
Garret:Yes. He was also on Ty's shack. I'm looking to look that, I'm
Ashley:glad you got that Aaron. Cause I was also like, eh,
Aaron:Robert stack.
Garret:yeah. Robert stack, which is nothing like pat save Jack sometimes my brain, melds things together
Aaron:do you remember a show it was kind of like unsolved mysteries. It had the dude from star Trek next generation and it, they would tell a story. And then at the end they would tell you whether it was real or not, like it was factor fiction.
Garret:it was Jonathan
Aaron:Franks. Yes, And at the end he would be like, we made that up or totally true.
Garret:What was that show called?
Aaron:beyond belief factor fiction
Ashley:What year does it say? What year
Aaron:97? Actually through 2021, but I don't remember it. That's what it says. I dunno.
Ashley:97? I mean, I was old enough to remember this.
Aaron:honestly, I forgot about it until we started talking about, unsolved mysteries.
Garret:Unsolved mysteries was the king. he would get to those stories and he'd be like, the person is still out there and he's looking for that, the windows, Garrett. If you close your blinds, he's still gonna find you. And I'd be like, why am I watching this?
Ashley:Yeah. Why aren't we in the bomb shelter? Oh man, I can't, yeah. I was the same way. It just made me scared of everything. Too much gray area for
Garret:Well, cuz they were all unsolved. This murderer is still, at large. This beast who ripped Molly apart is still out there. any happy news?
Ashley:Yeah. Any unsolved happy things that were like, someone was leaving gifts for them. We don't know who it was. Yeah. But
Garret:it
Aaron:was amazing. It was hit.
Ashley:So, another one I had, which I love the theme music. I actually get nostalgia when I hear it is XFiles. But there is a specific episode. Like I loved molder and Scully together. but there was one specific one where. They were inbred families in West Virginia. And they kept one of them under their bed. It was the mom. And they kept her on a thing that you would do, cars, like you would slide under and they would slide her out and she didn't have any arms or leg oh yeah. And they were nasty. Like the whole family was really nasty. And so, the scene where they introduce her, you just see a light come under the bed and you just see eyes and she's breathing real weird. And it's just like that she's looking around and I'm like, is
Aaron:about it.
Garret:That sounds scary.
Ashley:So it was like a little mama that they kept under the bed to keep having kids within the family Most of the time ex files didn't really creep me out, but that one is this factor fiction yeah. Beyond beliefs. I don't know.
Aaron:the Hills have eyes. I love that show xFi. It was one of my favorites. I loved it.
Ashley:It was good. When I hear the music, oh, it takes me to such a warm place. I never really watched except for that one. Except for that one, I feel like you should. I think it was before it's time. Okay. That was the last of my, shows. Does anybody still have shows?
Garret:I have this random thing. part of my issue with, some of my fears is that my mom is a morning person, and I am a night person, so she would go to bed around nine o'clock cuz she had to be up very early and I would stay up and she usually didn't mind. I remember I was watching TV and commercials were playing And I clicked over and these commercials were playing. And so I thought what I was watching was a commercial. There was a guy Strapp to a chair. And there was doctors all around. And for some reason I thought it was like a crest commercial or something. And they had this weird, large machine with a needle, attached to it. And it was aimed at the person sitting in the chair. And so I thought it was like some sort of teeth thing. I don't know why my brain went to that.
Ashley:Safe space
Garret:Yeah. I think that's it. as it keeps going, I was like, this is a really long commercial and a laser comes out and I'm like, oh, are they lasering his teeth? No, They were burning a hole into the dude's face. And I didn't realize it until they showed the dude again. He didn't scream, he just made this weird noise. And then as soon as he saw it, I turned it off. And I was like, what the heck was that? it completely caught me off guard. I have no idea what it was. I don't know. You still
Ashley:know? Never Googled it to find out.
Garret:There are a couple things like that, where I only have a short bit of information and it's too much to actually find. There was another one where I was younger and we were at, a friend's house and we're watching this TV show and this mono monster is escaping from a monolith, stone, and they're running away and that skipped the outta me as well I tried looking that up, could not find it. I don't know what it is. It was an eighties horror film sci-fi fantasy. I'm not sure but it freaked me the hell
Ashley:out. Okay. Podcast world. Do the research. I know these movies. Yeah.
Garret:They were in the
Ashley:eighties, I would definitely wanna know. Were you scared of monolith rocks after or dentists or like there
Aaron:I'm lasers?
Garret:As I got older, I was more scared of realer things. I would get uncomfortable with but It would take a lot in it to make me uncomfortable, but it was more the real stuff that scared me..
Aaron:It's just wild that, a two minute clip can have that much of an impression
Garret:Well, it's fear. you remember fear and how it makes you feel Yeah.
Ashley:especially not having full context, you can make up whatever you want is going on. You're like next time I go to the dentist, this may happen. our imaginations too, or wild then like mm-hmm, like mine was anyway. Yeah.
Garret:no, mine was crazy wild. so with the shows, did you guys have any cartoons that were traumatic
Aaron:Secret of the neph. Do you guys remember that?
Garret:Yes. That's I have that written
Ashley:down. Oh
Aaron:That cartoon was what nightmares are made of to me. Mm-hmm and I haven't watched it since I was a kid.
Ashley:Watch it, oh,
Aaron:I have me too. I have not, but what I remember of it just seems scary as hell to me,
Garret:there voices.
Ashley:oh, The rats are scary. So this cartoon to me encompasses my ability to deny because I only had really good memories and feelings around this movie, cuz I knew we watched it a lot and I watched it when we were older and I was having that moment of. What in the this is so scary. I remember there was the Crow friend who would get tangled up and things. And I thought he was hilarious and I thought that little mouse was cute in her little jacket. I watched it and I was like, this is so deep.
Garret:Oh, very deep.
Aaron:was there a large or something in it? Yes. That's the thing that I
Ashley:remember and the rats, they were are these underground rats and it was almost like a religion or something.. And the older rat
Garret:Nicodemus. Oh, remember? Yeah. And that name Nicodemus. That has always stayed with me. Well, it's biblical the owls with the eyes and everybody with the glowy eyes, they scared me, but it was the violence. I remember I wanna say it's Jenner, he was the villain rat and he kills another rat and I was like, oh my gosh. It freaks me out
Ashley:It's funny cuz it's not on my list because I just remember it being like a little mouse on the picture,
Garret:no, dude.
Aaron:Did it start out where the farmers was like plowing the field and all the animals were like, ah, it's it's harvest time and they had to retreat
Ashley:One of her kids is sick or something and she has to get this you know mm-hmm so the kid's gonna die, which you know, Disney always kills someone off, but still
Garret:like it's I don't think this was Disney though. Was it Disney? It's
Ashley:not Disney. I'm just saying that's not unhear cartoons for them to yes. Kill someone,
Garret:but this was very much more adults.
Ashley:It was, I would like to read the synopsis on it or did they have back then the, PG 13, 17 and up, when did that start coming
Garret:I don't think so. I think it came after, but I think this was a book that they modified to the movie and there was so many adult themes begs the question should kids actually be scared? Cause it's something that you will live through for your entire life and should you know how to manage it or should you be eased into it a little bit more?
Ashley:right. Or like me, you just remember the fun things anyway. little mice Not terrifying.
Garret:Yeah. so I have one it's more sad, traumatic than anything, but I remember bawling uncontrollably when I saw it. the land before time when little foot's mom dies. Oh bro.
Ashley:Yeah. That was a tough one.
Garret:And he's seeing her fight the Trani SARS Rex, and then like dying in front of him. I'm getting a little bit Terry, I just remembering
Ashley:it. the new beginning always comes from these ashes of death.
Garret:I'm like I know you gotta move the story forward, but dang man,
Ashley:come on right. There are other ways Can they get,
Garret:oh, baby gets on a train and accidentally ends up in New Mexico, right? Like
Ashley:five survival got separated and reunited mm-hmm and separated and reunited again. mm-hmm I don't even know what we're talking about now.
Aaron:cartoons
Ashley:cartoons. Yeah. Duh. okay So
Aaron:the donkey scene in Pinocchio, you guys remember that
Garret:Oh, when he turns into a donkey? Yeah. So after
Aaron:Pinocchio is turned into a real boy, he meets up with some other boys and they're. Drinking beer and smoking cigars
Ashley:And they start slowly getting the features, right? Yes. Mm-hmm Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Aaron:I
Garret:forgot about that. Yes. Oh man, that did scare
Aaron:me. It did me too. Something about that. Always freaked me out. Maybe cuz I like beer and smoking cigars.
Ashley:didn't then I would
Aaron:hope. maybe I knew that I was going to in the future. That's funny. Yeah. Just something about that scene. Just creeped me out.
Ashley:it was a little dark. I don't remember how it ended though. What got them out of it?
Garret:I think pinoc left. he went away or something. I don't remember a hundred percent,
Ashley:Again, I need conclusions. It's an unsolved mystery.
Aaron:Another cartoon scene do you guys remember the, pink elephant parade scene in Dumbo?
Garret:Yes. That one didn't scare me as much.
Aaron:Dumbo in general. I hated, I never liked it.
Garret:Wasn't crazy about it either. I mean,
Ashley:mine, the trauma on that one was when his mom's locked up and she's rocking him in her little trunk oh, like tear. is the saddest thing ever.
Garret:You saying that reminded me of something. so I had to get up very early with my mom and I remember one of the days I was waiting for my sister and her to get ready. And there was this creepy sound on the TV and it gave me chills, goosebumps and everything. And for years and years I did not know what it was. It wasn't until I actually started watching Dr. Who and the noise of it rung a bell, but the newer versions of which I've watched rung a bell enough that I was like, this is familiar for some reason, but I can't place it. And then, I was going over some of the storylines from older, Dr. Whos. And I randomly found a YouTube video and it played. I was like, oh my God is what it's mm-hmm what was it? So in the beginning and in the end when the credits were rolling, it was from there. it's like this weird whistling, tune. The effects of it were trippy cuz it's going through like a time wormhole sort of thing. And so it looks like. Kaleidoscope of weird lights. And so all of that combined with that music, it freaked me the hell out.
Aaron:when you first set a sound, I was thinking you remember when the channels used to go off the air, And it
Garret:would just be the, oh, no, it wasn't that. Yeah. I thought
Aaron:that
Ashley:Carol wha
Garret:yeah, it was like,
Aaron:no. Yeah, yeah. Uh, or I thought it was the frequency that makes you or whatever Like you know what I'm
Ashley:talking about? I have never heard of what is this.
Aaron:There's supposed to be a certain frequency. And if you're in it, you can't hold your You know what I'm saying?
Ashley:How now I'm scared of something. I know I'm kinda like, how can I use this? Might my enemies just gonna go up and start playing this frequency
Aaron:I got so the enduring legend of the brown note, it's a sound frequency so low that it resonance through the human body causes spontaneous uncontrollable pooping.
Garret:Wait, didn't south park do something on this. I don't know where
Aaron:I even know that it's from, but
Garret:I'll have to ask Gabriel after cuz he's watched a lot of south park. South park
Aaron:the legend was supposedly. a giant horn that gave the entire audience diarrhea during the rendition of the national Anthem. Oh
Garret:my God. that sounds lovely.
Ashley:However
Aaron:scientists have tested the effects and there's no evidence that the brown note, ah,
Garret:boo. can you imagine silly? Can you,
Ashley:Yes I can That's why it's so funny
Aaron:somebody with a voice like Barry white, Hey baby, Oh my God. Every time I try to woo.
Ashley:every time I woo you P
Garret:so dumb.
Aaron:Terribles terrible, but it's hilarious at the same time and
Ashley:scary because this is a scary episode. All right. So we are moving into Mo these so I don't do horror movies now at all, as we talked about before, I do not wanna be scared of my house. So I think the scaries thing I'm to watch recently is haunting a hill house. And I watched it during the day. and I was still scared I didn't even watch that. It's good, it's more mental health, There's also a bunch of hidden ghosts in there, I had a hard time with horror because like we were talking about earlier, I feel like I should have been scared of more things than I was, things that scare me are more real things. Like I have told Dustin, if you ever see a ghost in our house or I see one, I will never step foot in this house again. Like I don't, wanna believe it, but Jason, Michael, they don't scare me. They're almost campy They walk, everybody runs. It doesn't make sense, but there is one scene in Jason that I remember, and I don't remember which one it was where he was young and he was in the bottom of a. and a girl's dad was teaching her how to swim in the way that he just pushes her out of the boat and she can't swim and she's sinking. And he comes up from the bottom and grabs her like a, oh, I remember that
Garret:Oh that is scary
Ashley:that's the only Jason scene that I ever was like, no, thank you. I don't like feeling things in water that. I don't know what they're my under my feet stuff.
Garret:Oh God. No.
Ashley:I had a dream one time that I was swimming in a lake and there were seaweed tickling my feet. And then I dove in under to sea and it was bodies and it was hair. It was their hair tickling my feet. Cool. so I have like a, that is not cool. That is scary. It was like dead in their long hair was flowing up. So I've had a thing if something tickles my feet, I'm like, Nope, I go. it's trendy for me. anyway, I get it that just fed into that. anybody else have Jason on their list? We could slide into that
Garret:no, I I found Freddie and all them kind of funny. I was. Fearful of them in like the right way you should be, I would still watch the movies, but I would just turn my head if I didn't like a certain scene, but I would still go through with it. Cause my stepdad would watch it all the time. He watched Friday, 13th and Fred Cougar. So having him there kind of helped though. Cause I was like,
Ashley:okay, right. He's like I'm sitting through it and it felt so over the top. Right? Like it's like, so especially
Aaron:so much Freddy. Yeah. Fred even had jokes in
Ashley:it. Oh
Garret:he would make all kinds of, he, he was hilarious.
Ashley:he would just make some weird comment. And you're like,
Garret:what about you?
Aaron:The movie me that absolutely just shook me to my bones was pet cemetery Right.
Ashley:Line
Aaron:list. Our parents, they really wouldn't let us watch scary movies. And finally I convinced him that I was old enough to watch this movie.
Garret:And man, you went RA for the jugular too with that movie. Yeah. And before the
Aaron:end of the movie, I was literally behind the couch, in between the couch and the wall, peeking over and then ducking
Garret:behind.
Aaron:The characters and one in particular was, I don't know the main character's name. I think it was Ellie or Ella but her sister Zelda had some kind of rare bone disease. Oh. Where her spine and her bones were like crunched up and they were sticking out of her neck. Ellie Knew she was gonna die and had a chance to save her. And didn't because she felt like she was a burden. And then Zelda haunted her nightmares, through her whole life.
Ashley:I think that is one I blocked out. I remember the little boy and the cat, but that is the,
Garret:yeah. I remember the cat, the cat scared me, the cat and the cat scared me enough that I didn't wanna watch any well,
Aaron:and then the little boy gauge when he came back, cuz the little boy died and he came back he was like, I just wanna play. And he had a scalpel and no, no fair. And there was a teenager at the school that got hit. His name was, something Pascal out and I, I don't know why I remember that, but I do, the teenager was the first one to come back and haunt the main character.
Garret:I could do some Stephen King movies. I remember sleepwalks and I was a little scared of that one but a few of his movies, they would just hit the right notes. and that was one of them. I remember getting only so far in it and I was like, Nope done.
Aaron:That move was actually inspired by Stephen King's cat got killed on the highway, in front of his house and oh, wow. And that was the inspiration and, Stephen King, that said that novel is the only novel that he's written, that actually scares him. if he were to read it
Ashley:Did you watch the new pet cemetery?
Aaron:Yes they're both pretty good
Ashley:that little drummer girl in the woods I won't go near
Aaron:but I did go back and watch the original And it was not, good. the sister that I thought was so scary, you know, they tried to cast, it was supposed to be like a 13 year old girl, but all the, girls were too sweet and innocent and they couldn't be scary. So they actually an adult man to. the sister. And when you go back and watch it, you can see that it's a dude. no
Ashley:joke. Okay. I might have to Google that. I won't watch
Garret:yeah. I was like, I ain't watching it,
Aaron:You can tell it looks like singer from twisted sister.
Garret:that's so strange. okay. should I go from like the scariest thing that I remember, or the least scariest
Ashley:then, Ooh, it's a good question.
Aaron:Ooh, build up or, yeah I
Garret:go least. Okay. the dark crystal I didn't watch the entire movie. I think I turned it on and I just didn't know what was going on. And I almost immediately came to the scene of this KKI melting. And I was like oh my God. I shut it off and ran to my room.
Ashley:yeah that was very not for kids I don't think
Garret:apparently Jim Henson thought it was okay to scare kids. And that's why I had said that earlier. Yeah. Because he thought being scared is a natural part of life. So, it's okay. Yeah. That
Ashley:I think Neil Gaman has the same thing I just think, death to that kind of deterioration and capacity are a little much, you know what I mean? Disney kills a mom every time we watch it but they're not like rotting and like we're watching them decompose it's a little much
Garret:Oh that was a lot And too much for my little brain even now I don't think I could watch it I was so scared of it. I remembered Netflix coming out with a new dark crystal, like the continuation prequel. Yeah. Or whatever. I don't think it was. And I was like, Nope. not today's Satan
Ashley:again, I was labyrinth all the way dark crystal I could get or take
Garret:like, and Labrinth wasn't. There was a few things that were kind of like, I could see almost pushing it, but I wasn't scared of labyrinth. Like I was this, no, not at all.
Aaron:That was the orange, the bouncing head
Garret:thing always freaked out. They were kind weird.
Ashley:They were weird, but not like this more freaky than crystal was Different creatures. there was no comedic thing to them except for older or whatever eye keeps falling out. But even that wasn't
Aaron:Yeah. Even
Ashley:that is kinda that, wasn't that funny? so, Aaron, do you have another one or is it me? you? okay. So there are clear reasons traumatic wise that the never ending story is a scary movie to me, but. Oh, I already know what you're gonna say. Oh, no, I'm not. I'm not even gonna bring that scene up. That is a given it's the Wolf, when I talked about the dark. No. Yeah. Oh, okay. I thought you were gonna stay the horse scene because that I can't even get into it. Our tracks, You're not even trying anyway. no, it's the Wolf, again, most of my scenes are dark and then there's the eyes that are staring at you. Mm-hmm and you watch it later and he's like an animatronic from Chucky cheese literally. But at the time he was very scary. oh yeah. Nothing is kind of scary. Like having something that can destroy an entire world I have a death fear and darkness. So that's terrifying
Aaron:It is Yeah. The racing bat, the rock eater, I like the movie I really do, but it scary.
Ashley:Do you remember the scene too? That was so sad when the rock guy. Loses everyone. And he's like big, strong hands, you know? Like, and it's so sad cuz everyone like died and
Aaron:yeah. And then like he starts deteriorating too. Remember like it just starts falling
Garret:apart and you're like,
Aaron:oh so weird fears. One of mine was actually quick sand and sinking mud and the R track scene had a lot to do with that. That's
Garret:I was scared of the Wolf as well.
Aaron:Yeah. He was on my list of scary characters.
Ashley:I just remember more turtle's turtle oh yeah. Morela doesn't know
Garret:like that She's from Jersey now
Ashley:you know, I can't do accents. sound like an old Jewish lady. Like more,
Garret:so let me finish my
Ashley:figure's like you're telling me, but straw me on ride. Doesn't sound like a good sandwich. it's like, you don't talk about food when somebody's on a diet. Oh, okay. Never earning story done. Made lots of lists clearly oh,
Aaron:yes. Yeah. That one my next one it was one that was scary as a kid, but now I watched it recently and it was so comedic people under the stairs. Oh, I dunno if you guys remember that
Garret:movie. I did
Ashley:watch it. I thought about that one with. I'm gonna air quote, irrational fear of things. Grabbing me. I was trying to figure out if that was associated in some way. I don't think it was, but I do picture that after I watched the movie, I was like, okay, well that gave me something more, thank you.
Aaron:Yeah. So it was a west Craven movie it has to be probably one of the weirdest
Garret:oh I didn't know that
Aaron:yeah. I just remember the main character was the kid from Sandlot he was in mighty ducks too and his family was poor and they went to break into their landlord's house. And downstairs. the landlord was keeping people underneath the stairs people that were trying to break into the house. They would keep'em there. And they were almost like zombies.
Garret:I don't know why I wasn't freaked out about that movie but there was something that grounded it for me.
Aaron:yeah And I watched it recently and it had him and had the guy from jury duty, the, and the
Ashley:Aaron Berg commercial. And so I thought was that guy with the no tongue? Right? What was the name in it though? I wanna say it was like a weird, it was a nickname.
Aaron:Roach. It was from Roach.
Ashley:yeah he would crawl around and so Roach used to talk back so they cut off his tongue So he couldn't actually talk But he could get out of the basement and go around the house. Yeah. That's so funny.
Aaron:was in it too
Ashley:I don't know who that is
Aaron:yeah, you do. He's in pulp fiction. he's Arby's we got the meets. It's the do
Garret:he's in it? Yes. Who is he?
Aaron:I think he's either the kid's dad or his mentor.
Ashley:I'm gonna have to revisit.
Aaron:No only reason I do is because I watched it not too long ago and it was so bad.
Garret:Oh, I, I bet
Ashley:So that was one that's not sticking with you. You're not no,
Aaron:nothing. I mean, but as a kid
Garret:just thought
Aaron:like a regular looking house and there's people trapped in there and normal looking people and people breaking in and disappearing and just the whole thought of it
Garret:when did it come out?
Aaron:I'm gonna say early nineties.
Garret:oh, it was 91. It came out in November. I was 11 by then. I think that was part of it. As I got older, the fear started going away. So that lines up.
Ashley:All right. Do y'all
Garret:remember Superman? Like Christopher Reeves.
Aaron:Yeah one two
Garret:This is I don't remember the plot of the movie at all, but what I do remember, it was when they're trying to escape this computer who becomes like sentient and the computer grabs, through a a tractor beam and grabs one of the villains, and takes her back and she's like, no, no, no, no, no. And then she starts going like, uh, and the computer turns into a cyborg it was such a frightening scene. I I watched it before we did this, a couple days ago. And, it's completely cheap now, but I think the actress did such a good job of being scared and that transmitted to the audience. she goes into that computer and the computer starts putting pieces of metal on her face and her eyes go like gray and her hair. And so like, she walks out of it and starts attacking her, brother and friend it was freaky even now. there's a little bit just cuz of her voice and her mannerisms as like she's being transformed,
Ashley:I'm gonna look it up.
Garret:If you put Superman three lady or like cyborg in it, boom. It'll pop up.
Ashley:All right. So my last one it's not actually the movie. So the movie is stir of echoes and it had, Kevin bacon in it, Kevin bacon, and I don't remember what exactly happens, but he starts seeing there's a ghost in the house, and and keeps telling them to dig and he digs and there ends up being a body of a missing girl under the house. the part that got me, and this is a part that just sticks with me, cuz I have a thing about it is he finds her body, he like touches her and it shows the memory of how she died. And there is a scene where she's being attacked and she puts her hand on the wall and scratches it and her nails snap off couldn't get it out of my head. I don't like stuff under my nails. I don't let people touching my nails, physically I could feel it whoever did it, like, nah, you did good, but like too good. So anyway, I think it came out in like mid nineties. So I think I was a teenager, but it was
Garret:that's but that's still rough. That O
Ashley:blah blah. Yeah, it was a good movie too, though. It was well done. I thought the acting was good. It was the actress. I can't remember her name, but, and you would know her as soon as you see her face. Oh actually what's really funny is I didn't realize the girl is one from, um she's the lead. And once upon a time I didn't realize that was the victim.
Garret:Oh that's interesting
Ashley:Anyway, that was my last movie.
Aaron:So my final movie, which I really thought Ashley for sure was gonna pick this one. Poultrygeist oof yeah, so many different fears from those movies, the creepy trees mirrors
Ashley:the clown
Aaron:yes Uh the pool The little old lady from teen witch something about her just really freaked me out. And then when you find out what happened to some of the characters on this show? Just anything to do with a mirror, or a TV, you know, when they were talking through the TV.
Garret:that movie did freak me out
Aaron:that one really scared me as a kid and I haven't watched it recently either But I probably would like to watch it someday,
Garret:I I'm with Ashley, the ones I probably would still watch is maybe Nightmare and Elm street. I remember in the late nineties being a friend, watched all of'em and we were having like a good time, but nowadays I just, don't like the feeling of being scared as much as I used to.
Ashley:I know I don't understand it I'm like mm-hmm I don't know why that didn't make my list I know Dustin has a mirror thing even now because his dad took him when he was Caroline's age. So he is like, great mirrors ruined forever. What happened with the pool? Because that's like, I'm not getting anything there.
Aaron:It was where the pool turned real slushy and then there was dead bodies in it, when they were swimming. Yeah. And and then one thing that really sticks out to me is where, the family's walking down the hallway of it's either the apartment building or in hotel and the teenage girl looks in the mirror and her character in the mirror just starts taking her face. and just starts ripping it off Or. The character would move, but the person in the mirror wouldn't move, yeah. I
Ashley:don't like that. I don't like that. I know why I've blocked this movie out
Garret:I can handle the staring back or the reflection not doing whatever but the taking pieces off No
Ashley:Oh, I don't even like that though, unless it's like army of darkness doppelganger. I don't want it. I love that one. That's seems.
Garret:So my last one is probably something that you have never heard, but it was probably the most scared I have ever been watching a movie. This one also starts Christopher Reeves I must have had like a double feature or something like that Cuz he did a bunch of made for TV movies. And I had put plots together that were from two different movies. And recently, as I was doing research found out they were separated. so this one is called bump in the night and Christopher Reeves plays a child molester oh, oh, um, this kid is with him and part of my thinking was, I must have been watching a movie done something, come back and thought they were part of the same movie because he played sort of a similarish character. In one movie he was abusive and in this one he was a pedophile. So like that sort of thing. So I'm going along with the movie and he takes his kid. He's like waiting for his father and he's like, oh, I'm your father's friend. And takes him to some. And the kid's smart. And he is like, mm you're not really my father's friend. So finally, Christopher Reeves is telling this kid, he's like, I just wanna love you. He's saying stuff like this and I'm like, oh my God, this is freaking weird. So the kid Wises up and it ends up hiding in an addict that he finds and Christopher Reeves is trying and he can't find him anywhere. And so this guy comes over and it's getting real tense. Trying to find this kid. I want this kid to get away. Cause I'm a kid at the same time. So I'm really feeling for this kid. And this was not a movie for children at all. This is one of the ones I stayed up past when I should have, and my mom was asleep. So like this guy comes and he is like, oh, there's an attic up here. And he starts climbing to like, get up to the attic. And Christopher Reeves takes him, throws him on the ground. And stabs him with a screw diver, like in his chest. And once that happened, I flu off my chair, ran to my mom's room and she's like dead asleep. And I'm like, mom, this is scary. And I don't know what's going on. And I'm bawling my eyes up. Cause I'm, I'm so scared that I'm crying. she doesn't get up. She stays in bed. And her hand is like, uh, is, is okay. Garrett
Ashley:just patting you they're there
Garret:Yeah She's just like pat me D desperately wanting me to leave her the hell alone But that was probably the scariest I've ever felt as a child watching anything but is
Ashley:it confirmed that they were the same movie or there were two different movies? I got confused on that part, like,
Garret:sorry. So there's a movie that he plays an abusive husband, Christopher mm-hmm and he
Ashley:gets separated. So you thought you were watching that and it ends up being the child molester one. Okay Got it Okay I'm up to speed
Garret:I don't know how I got the two merged.
Ashley:Also you had a kidnapping scare, so I'm sure this was that kinda stuff. your Halloween kidnapping scare
Which if our listeners are interested in hearing, they'll have to wait a few weeks for a Halloween candy episode to drop where Garrett tells the story.
Garret:but like It was always the real stuff that scared me more than the fantasy stuff. The fantasy could get to me, don't get me wrong and I would get scared to just turn it off and, and like walk away. But this actually got to
Ashley:me. Yeah. That's how I feel, okay. So in a movie, two things that bother me now is whenever they started doing the weird ghost. Like crickety thing where the bones like crook and snap and stuff like that. Oh,
Garret:that's uncomfortable
Aaron:That was on pet cemetery Every time she moved you could hear like
Ashley:Yeah. there was a certain time where they were doing a lot of those and that thing where the ghosts like started moving real quick and stuff like fast zombies are kind of scary too. Like, so I like whatever, but Fazo means that's, different, Not gonna go and get that Okay I hope you're not listening to this episode at night
