The Dare That Made Me a Horror Freak...

Several years ago I watched the movie that got me addicted to horror movies - "The Ring" - I was 12 years old and got dared by a friend to watch it while I was home alone... and being me of course I did it!

So anyway, I remember the day crystal clear, it was a Wednesday and there was a thunder storm forming outside. I put the video in the player and started watching.... I didn't turn my head away from the screen once, and it had gotten to the particularly scary part where the women got pushed into the well and the power in my house went off!

I had just stood up from the couch when the power came back on again and static was crackling on the TV - OMG I have never been so scared in my life!!! I couldn't move at all and adrenaline was pumping through me!!! A few seconds later the TV went back to normal and I watched the rest of the movie in peace.

Now I have watched so many other horror movies and i love them all!
