Irrational?!?! Clowns are terrifying, you nut!

I've been told my "fear" of clowns is irrational.  I disagree!!! Clowns are 100% terrifying (statistical fact).  Why are they wearing that exaggerated makeup?!?!?  What's with the baggy exaggerated clothes???  WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?!?!

It is not an irrational fear.  Others think my fear is based off of IT.  They think I saw IT as a kid and it scarred me for life.  While yes I did see IT, that is not what started my fear.  My FEAR was well established before IT...the movie only justified my fear.  Clowns are f**king evil!

I distinctly remember hating clowns from a very young age.  I had a clown lamp in my bedroom.  It was a clown holding a bushel of balloons.  The balloons were the lamp shade.  It also played f**king circus music if you wound it up and the head lolled from side to side (I think, I may have imagined that part).  Also, the face had this forced looking smile like it was just waiting to kill me in my sleep.  "Gee, I wonder why I developed a fear of clowns?!!?!?" 

I can't find a picture of the lamp I had...the ones I am finding aren't nearly as nightmare inducing!!! Either that or my memory is quite skewed...
 
It looked something like this but the base was mostly white, not wood, I think it was porcelain & plastic

The face looked more like this.....

But in all seriousness I basically refused to sleep in my bedroom until my mom removed it.  I didn't even want it in the attic, I wanted it gone!  I was like 3 or 5 years old!!!  She replaced it with a lamp that was a f**king doll with an umbrella and the umbrella was the lamp shade.  "OMG mom stop giving me lamps that can watch me sleep!!!!!"

It looked something like this!
I think my mom was trying to scare me to death! 

Anyways, my fear of clowns started long before IT ever came out.  I saw IT.  You might be wondering WHY someone with a fear like mine would do that. Well I was at a sleep over and I didn't want to be the "scaredy cat" so I sat through it.  Then I didn't sleep for a f**king week! 
Seriously, could you sleep if you saw this every time you closed your eyes?!!??!
You would think as an adult my "fear" would have dwindled.  Nope!  I can control it...outwardly you would think I was fine (unless you really know me)...inside I'd be hyperventilating!  But for real, I went to the Circus with my friends for one of the kid's birthdays...I had to concentrate on not freaking out so the little ones wouldn't freak out.  It was pathetic! I even re-watched IT again as an adult and literally had every light in my house on.  The guy I was dating at the time came home and was like "WTF?!!?"  I absolutely, without a doubt, am terrified of clowns.  They are not cute or funny people!  They will kill you in your sleep...hello, Pennywise, Twisty...KILLER CLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE!

Sam is my spirit animal...he gets its!


Look, I love me a good horror movie but put a clown in it and I am reduced to a quivering mess.

It's Halloween Time!!!

And apparently my subconscious is trying to scare the f**k out of me.  I had a dream last night to rival any horror flick out there.  And I haven't been binge watching horror movies this month (shocking, I know).

Okay so my dream.  We were staying in a supposed haunted house.  It reminded me of the Myrtles but I don't think that is where we were.   Anyway, we saw nothing.  Like I vaguely remember walking around an old plantation like home and eating maybe in a kitchen area but nothing unusual happened.  My husband and I had a room and my friends had their own rooms with their respective spouses.  We were just starting to fall asleep when the door to the room flew open (which I was facing) and two of my friends came running in.  I can't tell you which two because I don't know but I know it was two of my besties.  They climbed up on the foot of this massive bed we were sleeping in and were yabbering about how freaked out they were in their room.  At some point we all started to doze off and I remember bright flashing behind my eye lids.  There was an image, like an x-ray of a person in these flashes.  I opened my eyes and this apparition was attacking me but not actually hurting me.  I was thrashing around but no one else could see it.  So I calmed down and explained what I saw.  A woman, darker skin, with a leather collar around her neck.  She looked rabid.  She  eventually fell to the floor and disappeared. 

Apparently we were there for a few days because there was another "scene" where I was in an old beatup pickup with a strange guy...like I could feel he was a friend but I have no idea who he was.  We were driving around a park (looked like City Park) looking for another friend who ran off because of all the weirdness in the house.  When all of a sudden, mid-sentence, something pulled me out of the moving truck threw me up against a giant oak tree.  I was being tossed around like a rag doll.  It hurt.  I was terrified because I had no control.  I couldn't escape. Then my "friend" suddenly looked like this famous-ish actor guy who has a "northern accent" but he was dressed like a priest.  He freed me somehow and said "run".  Stop laughing, my subconscious is clearly on crack and is also combining his shows

At some point we ended up back at the plantation.  It jumps around quite a bit.  Then we were back in our room.  My two friends slept in the room with us because they were scared.  I was attacked again, except this time it looked like effing Twisty from AHS and I was losing my gd mind.  Thankfully they could see him this time and were also losing their minds.  We could hear this one. Like the grunting, growling and laughing muffled by a mask as he attacked (creeptastic!).  Eventually he got frustrated because his stabbing wasn't actually hurting me and flashed out of existence.  We didn't sleep much and then it was morning.  I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth...with my grandfather.  It was weird because he was standing next to me like he used to when I was younger and well he could actually stand....it was also weird because why were we in the bathroom together (do not Freud me). Anyway, I eventually climbed back in bed with my husband and we were alone (Thank God).  Apparently it was time for fun time.  Don't judge, it has been like a week and my brain is trying to compensate :P  While we were getting started I felt something on the bed behind me.  Then I felt a finger touch my cheek push in slightly and drag down my face.  Not aggressively, actually a bit kind and familiar. 

I jerked out of the dream (which hurt like a mo-fo by the way).  I was breathing heavy, I was shaking, I was terrified, and I could still feel the finger on my face, WTF.  I forced myself to roll over thinking it had to have been my husband.  He was facing the other way and was out cold.  I was absolutely scared out of my mind.  I just knew something touched me.  So I snuggled up to him and he thankfully put his arm around me...I eventually fell back asleep.

This morning he said it was probably a cat touching my face....but a cat paw does not feel like a flipping finger.  Sorry but whatever happened last night freaked me the eff out!  I am going to have nightmares about my nightmare...
