I actually had nightmares after watching the first TMNT movie at a friend's house back around 1991.

I think it was the realistic turtle costumes and the sequence where the Foot ambushes Raph and ultimately destroy April's apartment that really got to me.

Nothing in TMNT ever scared me. And I was only 5 years old when the 1990 movie came out.

Brave man. Knightmare used to scare the hell out of me as a child until I realised how great the show was.

Krang trying to disintegrate Baxter Stockman in the FW series made me bat an eye, but that's it.

"Woah, Krang's actually gonna KILL him? A death in a kid's cartoon?! "

I guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"

Unsolved Mysteries music and Robert Stack's voice. It still creeps me out today, and it didn't help that some episodes had end of the world scenarios in it. Loved it when Stack would stay,"maybe you can help solve a mystery...". Who is D.B. Cooper?

The "Mystics" from The Dark Crystal used to frighten the sh*t out of me, especially when they did that chant.
Funnily enough I wasn't too bothered by the Skeksis.

Schnookums from the Muppets

The Gorks from Fraggle Rock, specifically Junior.

Hmm, typing this out I realise the stuff that scared me was all from Jim Henson...having said that, I LOVED The Dark Crystal, The Muppets and Fraggle Rock...and being scared.

I was 10 when the first movie came out, so nothing TMNT-related scared me either. Tho I do vaguely recall my folks not letting me see it when I first came out. Maybe they thought it was too violent..? Actually, I don't think I saw any of the original 3 movies when they were out in theaters. Damn.

The only TMNT movie I ever missed seeing in theaters was Secret of the Ooze, which ironically has been my favorite of them thus far.

I'm more scared of what some of the people on this forum are like in real life than anything else.

Looking back, a lot of things scared me as a child.

As far as TMNT goes, the only thing that scared me as a kid was not on show the or in the films, but instead it was an encounter with someone in a huge Raphael costume coming towards me outside of the Blockbuster Video in my town (which was having a grand opening). I was 5 at the time, and I guess the sight of that huge character walking towards me just freaked me out, lol.

I think I have told this story here before, but yeah that's the one TMNT-related thing that scared me as a kid.

I know this might sound a little strange, but in Case of the Killer Pizzas right as the pizza monster emerged from the meatball inside the microwave oven. The thought as a four-year old in which food turns into predator was so mind-blowing, I couldn't even watch it again until I was an adult. Believe it or not, Donatello's alternate voice actor in Mutagen Monster absolutely SCARED me the way he would say "Donatello? Who is Donatello?" Until I discovered the concept of alternate voice actors, I was just mystified.

I was also scared of the Temple Run music in Legends of the Hidden Temple believe it or not.
