no more i love yous

It's a well known fact that I am in love with the world of the supernatural and that I am intrigued by all things unseen. This passion was planted in me by my Mama who brought me up with stories of her own childhood ghosts and countless hours of horror movies and television shows. As much as I have a stern tough exterior look, I am really a pussy on the inside. I sleep with the lights on no matter I am and my mind is constantly warning me that something is under the bed, behind the door, behind the car seat, behind me in the shower, sleeping next to me, walking behind me.. So life becomes abit of a paranoia after awhile. But like a bad habit I cannot resist listening to ghost stories or reading more horror tales.

My soulmate HoneyStar recently sent me a link to this site containing works by a photographer named Joshua Hoffine. The collection is called Childhood Fears and it's not your usual late-for-school, didn't-do-your-homework, broke-the-vase sort of fear. It's more of the nightmare boogeyman type. And let me tell you, this photos are not for the faint of heart!!!!! It freaked me out. Cos some of the images really brought out the goosebumps on my neck. Below are the creme de la creme of the ones that really freaked me.


This scenario has been played in my mind so many times. Closing the fridge door to discover something behind it. And from the looks of it, this little girl is about to experience the worst trauma of her life. What's up with the disembodied head in the fridge. The poor kid.. And why is that creature squatting. It just makes it all the more menacing.


I'm pretty sure most of had this nightmare when we growing up. The creature in the dark closet. I can actually feel this little girl's fear. Looking at the door as it comes crawling out.

I love this shot actually. It mixes innocence and danger together. The doll, the teddy bear, the rocking horse, the stuffed animal on the vanity, the pretty picture on the wall and the EVIL creature coming through the cupboard door. Have to give credit to the little girl though, don't think I'll be standing in the corner if I saw this coming out from my cupboard. Probably be climbing the wall screaming in terror.


This is BAD. BAD. I have this urgent need to save that little girl. OH LORD.. I cannot tell you how many times I've had visions about things under my bed. I've even had a few encounters myself and I absolutely HATE beds with space underneath. And the fact that the word D A D D Y is arranged out on the blocks just makes this shot all the more scary.


Don't go in there!! The kid is so naive. Can't she see the skulls? And what is that behind the window? Does not even look human!! Ugh..


This photo speaks for itself. Nothing I can say will justify it. This is FREAKILY SCARY. Don't go down there!!


And this final shot brings back bad memories of that Stephen King novel IT that got turned into a telemovie. I remember me and my cousins were totally spooked by it but we kept watching it over and over. Sigh..

All I can say is beware kids. So many dangers lurking around you. It's not enough we have to deal with paedophiles and murderers and twisted kidnappers, we also have to deal with freaked out DEMONS from the other world. Lord have mercy on us all.

Protect the children. Protect yourselves.

Peace.
