Minnesotans Answer: What Movie Scared You As a Kid?
I've never liked scary movies.
Whether that be supernatural thrillers or gory-laden screamers, I've always stayed away.
In fact, one of my earliest memories of a "scary movie" is the 1966 Don Knotts film The Ghost and Mr. Chicken. A comedy-drama with a spooky undertone, I had nightmares for years after of the bleeding portrait on the stairwell and the organ in the attic that played itself.
So with Halloween on the way, I took to Facebook to ask listeners what movie(s) scared them as a kid.

"Pet Sematary" - Morgan
"Poltergeist" - Jody
"Children of the Corn" - Adrianne
