Mushrooms - we used to collect them in the forest and if there was one close by I was always the one to find them due to my obsessive fear. I think it was the presence of maggots in them that freaked me out more than anything.

Also balloons that had gone old and wrinkly were absolutley terrifying!

Shop mannequins scared me, just made me really un-easy, couldn't look at them.

I was scared of black* people as a child.

Not that I am racialist like, but I would scream and scream when I saw someone darker than I was used to seeing.

*Or whatever the PC term is nowadays.

my mum thought i was a reincarnation of hitler as i was scared of black people and liked blondes and used to hum the german national anthem at the age of 3 without them knowing where i might have heard it before.

Only throwback i have to that time now is my love of VW beetles.
