Win a Hotel Transylvania DVD and book

Welcome to Hotel Transylvania, Dracula’s lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up and no humans are allowed. One special weekend, Dracula (Adam Sandler) has invited all his best friends – Frankenstein and his wife, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, the Werewolf family, and more – to celebrate his beloved daughter Mavis’s (Selena Gomez) 118th birthday. For Dracula catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem but the party really starts when one ordinary guy stumbles into the hotel and changes everything!

  1. The Incredible Hulk terrified me as a child. I used to hide behind the settee when he turned green and ripped his clohtes!

  2. I’m with Tracy. IT was terrifying. I didn’t even want to get up to switch the light off after reading the book.

    @caro_mad

  3. Ronald McDonald gives me the creeps; I’d rather spend the afternoon with Hamburglar! When I was tiny, I would close my eyes when The Incredible Hulk was on as I was scared of when his eyes turned green.

  4. I’ve only ever watched Disney’s Cinderella once because I was so scared of the stepmother!! What a wimp!

  5. I’ve only ever watched Disney’s Cinderella once because I was so scared of the stepmother!! What a wimp!

  6. Jaws was bad (I made my mum go in the loo with a bead knife for weeks afterwards every time I needed a pee), the clown from Stephen King’s IT scarred me for life (no more circus for me, not even Madagascar 3) and the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang just petrified me….infact, it’s a wonder I’m as sane as I am!

  7. Freddy from Nightmare on Elm Street, a friend when I was young made me watch it, even now it send shudders up me thinking about it. I was petrified

  8. Jaws as a child my grandad took me to see it in the cinema I was so scared but braved it out as I didnt want him not to take me to the cinema again he never did though.Now Im a granny and still dont watch Jaws

  9. well it used to be the child catcher out of chitty chitty bang bang, then it was pinhead out of hellraiser now Id say its almost any killer in the horror movies : ) they all scare me senseless

  10. For me the scariest is Cruella Deville from 101 dalmations. She is so evil and terrified me as a child.

  11. I had (and still do, you never forget your first love) a proper crush on the Teen Angels from Captain Caveman

  12. I actually got freaked out when i watched Coraline! All those button eyes etc. no thanks!

  13. For me it’s Michael the boy/guy in the scary mask in Hallowe’en and its sequels. I have subscribed and tweeted too.

  14. The evil Horned King from The Black Cauldron always used to scare me.

    I follow on Google + twitter @sometweet7

  15. The Preacher in Poltergeist 2 – his voice and slow singing give me the creeps instantly!

  16. ‘The Hood’ from Thunderbirds. His light up eyes always freaked me out when I was younger plus those thick eyebrows and shiny dome didn’t help matters…he’s proper scary! 😉

  17. I don’t really get scared by film characters on the whole, but as a child Cruella de Vil freaked me out big time. Not so much because she looked scary, more on account of her character … anyone, animated or otherwise, who can intentionally harm animals is pretty scary!

  18. The child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang used to make my skin crawl, his pointy nose and his beady eyes were terrifying!!!

  19. The one that sticks the most from being younger is freddy krueger, nightmare on elm street

  20. The General Woundwort from Watership Down. It was the last film to give me nightmares (I was 7) and desensitised me from horror films for life.

  21. Jaws man out of James Bond ( the man with the metal teeth ) even now I don’t really like watching him.

  22. The Huns in Mulan by Disney! I was watching Mulan with my daughter & I could hardly believe this was a kids film. I would have been terrified of the Huns when I was little … They gave me the creeps as an adult!
    Very evil, indeed!

  23. The clown from IT. I never really liked clowns anyway, but after seeing that I was terrified of them!

  24. I don’t watch scary movies. But was so scared as a child of Grot Bags in Rod Hull and Emu.

  25. Jaws terrified me when I was younger, I wouldn’t go out of my depth in the sea. It still pops into my mind now sometimes…..really in my mid thirties I should know better lol X

  26. Not one for the kids…. Candman Always scared me. I remember thinking I was brave and would say his name a couple of times in the mirror, but would NEVER get to 5 LOL

    Have rtd, follow and G+

  27. The empty Child in Doctor who series 10 still scares the hejeebees out of me!
    Are you my mummy? *shivers*

  28. I used to be really scared of the evil character ‘Rasputin’ from the film ‘Anastasia’, gave me nightmares1

  29. Not sure if this counts, but the Mr Wimpy guy, the one with the huge head! Creepy as hell, traumatised me so much when I was 2 that I never set foot in a Wimpy ever again, plus when he was in adverts on the television I used to leg it out of the room! lol

    Otherwise it would be the the Witch in Snow White (original Disney)

  30. Nobody scares me more than Professor Umbridge from harry potter. Somebody that collects cat plates, wears that much pink and forces self harm on her students will forever be in my bad books!

  31. i have a huge phobia of clowns, i can`t even look at them a fact my kids find very funny. (esp when they had to dress up funny for school on comic relief last year and their friend who had dressed as a clown chased me all round the playground!!) i also dont like Worzel Gummidge, he makes me feel sick when i look at him, i dont know why but i actually gag! thank god he`s not on tv anymore! lol

  32. Any kind of Clown – hate the start of Stephen Kings ‘It’ when its comes up from the drain….

  33. THE CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG CHILD CATCHER EVEN AS AN ADULT AND WATCHING THIS FILM IT MAKES ME SCARED

  34. definitely has to be pennywise from IT, never really looked at clowns in the same way since watching that as a kid 😛

  35. Ever since I was little I have always hated BEETLEJUICE! He used to really scare me, that movie is no banned in our house!

  36. Scariest character would have to be – well its not a character but The birds from the alfred hitchcock film. the bit where they attack all the children is horrible.

  37. Tim Curry playing the clown in Stephen King’s IT, (and even when I see Tim Curry in other films, I still think of him as Pennywise the clown)

  38. Johnny Depp’s Willy Wonka terrifies me – no idea why (fine with the original) but there is something about that character that is just horrible 🙁 x

  39. it used to be freddy krueger, didnt sleep in the middle of the bed for weeks after johnny depp was pulled right through his in that scene in the film!!

  40. The child catcher out of chitty chitty bang bang!!!!! how sad!!!!! im still frightened of him and watch it from behind a cushion when hes on

  41. Myself any my daughter recently watched Coraline and she was petrified of the “other” family…but was mesmerised by it and watched it again haha…funny little person 🙂

  42. Michael Myers from the first Halloween movie always terrified me. Made me scared of babysitting!

  43. the scariest TV charachter of all time is Freddie Kruger from the nightmare on elm street

  44. I was always petrified of Elmer Fudd…I know he’s not actually supposed to be frightening but his focus on hunting Bugs Bunny used to scare me so much when I was little! My brother would terrify me by creeping up behind me and whispering ‘Be vewy vewy quiet, I’m hunting wabbits’

  45. Any of the Skeksis from the Dark Crystal – Was the first film I went to the cinema to see as a young child and although I love it now it absolutely terrified me back then!

  46. I watched Nightmare on Elm Street as a teenager, it gave me nightmares for weeks. It still freaks me out when I watch it now

  47. The clown from the film ‘It’, with those sharp pointy teeth, ooo gives me the shivers. If I take the kids to the circus I can’t look at the clowns just in case!!!

  48. The Hills Have Eyes… Freaky

    My daughter saw Hotel Transylvania with nanny and loved it, I would love to have a copy to watch with her x

  49. As a child I was terrified of the Daleks in Doctor Who – the sound of them still makes me shiver.

  50. Coraline was a freaky cartoon that scared one of my boys. When I grew up I was scared of Doctor Who and The Hulk.

  51. I don’t get scared, I’m brave haha my kids are seriously scared of Polar Express though for some very strange reason!

  52. The witch from snow white really scared me when i was a kid. I couldn’t watch the film!

  53. The T-Rex from the Jurassic Park movies….scared the bejezus out of me as a kid! Spent the entire time hidden behind my dad’s coat!
