Five Scary Movies I Want To See But Can’t Because I’m Too Scared
Kylie Bushman

I love watching movies of all kinds, except the horror genre. I have always been easily scared and the whole purpose of these movies is to scare you. Now some people enjoy the feeling of being scared and that is why these kinds of movie exist, but when I am scared just watching the trailer of some of these movies, I realize it might not be best to watch the whole thing. Slowly I am becoming more open to scary movies, so this is a list of five scary movies I hope to be able to see one day, but at the moment I am just too scared to watch. Maybe one day when I finish watching this list I can consider myself cured from my fear of Horror films.

5) Halloween (1978)

Whenever the holiday comes around this movie is one of the classic must watch. Slasher films have always terrified me especially Michael Myers, I have only just watched my first Slasher film and it was the 2009 version of Friday the 13th so does that really even count?

4) IT (1990)

Tim Curry playing an evil creepy clown, what could be better than that? Well pretty much anything when you are extremely afraid clowns. Stephen King is a great author and I’ve heard good things about some of his movies, but I can’t risk not having any sleep for the next few weeks.

3) The Ring (2002)

This movie just seems like a cool concept with a cursed videotape. I have also been told I can look like the killer of the story, a girl named Samara, when I pull all my hair over my face which I think would be fun if I knew anything about it. White noise already freaks me out so I just feel like this movie is a bad idea

2) Saw (2004)

Honestly I don’t have much of a reason as to why I want to see this movie, I just do. I remember my parents watching these movies and always running to hide from Jigsaw who I was insistent was in my closet. Maybe I just want to finally see the movie with a character that has haunted me for years.

1) The Exorcist (1973)

From what I have heard one of the freakiest movies ever created, you cannot be considered a true horror film fan until you have seen this movie. I have an odd interest in demon possession and feel if I could get past my fear I would enjoy this movie.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
