I think Threads can come under "rational fears", pie-eater.

That was a scary film that.

Thunderstorms and lightning.

Get some pretty good ones in the mountains too.

There used to be this house at the end of the street at the back of where I lived......it had these 3 giant fir trees that made it look all dark and creepy and I would never pass that house, always detouring around it....it gave me the willies. Then 10 years later, my parents bought that house and I lived in it for the next 10 years!! we cut the trees down though

I can imagine you crossing the street to pass the house then crossing back again after passing it!

 

When I was a kid growing up on Maui, we had these olive trees in the sideyard that would make howling noises on windy nights and cast spooky shadows on the drapes from the moonlight. When we moved, I couldn't sleep because there were no tree sounds or shadows. Not really sure why the trees didn't trigger the fear response in me.
