I was terrified of the song In the Year 2525. It was the creepy music and the line about not having teeth or eyes. I was also scared of Judgement Day which my Baptist grandfather ranted about endlessly.
I was afraid of that Hitchcock tv show "The Jar," (name wrong?) and of some movie where a kid hides under the bed while his family is murdered by an ax-wielding maniac. I conflated it with The Dark at the Top of the Stairs, and for years thought that was a horror film, lol.

I had a roommate from India and his wife and little daughter came to stay. Whenever the daughter did something bad, they would say the witch in the room above was going to come down and get her. I can't imagine being constantly told that as a child! They said it was a frequently used child-rearing tactic in India.

Best personal one though: bears.
When I was younger my family would travel to our family reunion every summer. It would take place at our family’s rural property in the middle of nowhere off a long dirt road. Nobody’s cellular service worked in those days.
Somehow as a kid I was always comfortable playing around all day through the night—until one year I heard his cousin telling my father a story. When they were younger and playing around on the property, very much like I was, a bear wandered out of the woods and onto the lawn. They ran inside, ain’t called animal control, which trapped the bear etc.
The very notion that we were literally in the middle of the woods and the very real possibility of seeing animals out there suddenly struck me. I must have been like 7/8 years old. Every year after that I would cry when it got dark because I was TERRIFIED of encountering a bear especially at night.
I went camping for the very first time this past summer!

Falling into a coffin and getting sealed inside. My grandmother came from a big family, 14 brothers and sisters, so wakes and/or funerals were not rare. Going through the receiving line was torture, always having my eyes on that wide open casket, usually I never made it to the front.
Going to the cemetery wasn't at all frightening, since the casket was already sealed. Staring at the open grave? No problem at all.

Starting when I was a small child, I've had recurring dreams all my life about climbing up a ladder or steep, treacherous stairway to a little room that I have to climb up into through a trap door in the floor of the room. It's never the same room or ladder or stairs, but always very similar.
When I get into the room, it is smaller than I expected and the walls start to close in and I can't get out and I start to panic until I wake up.
If someone told me they had that dream, I'd think they were dreaming about going up into a uterus, but that doesn't really feel like that's what it is. I have it once or twice a year, and at this point, when it happens, I can be in the dream and recognize it as the recurring dream, but I never recognize it until I'm in the room and feeling claustrophobic. THEN, I remember: oh, yeah, you're back.
I have one other recurring dream that didn't start until I was in my 40s, and it's not as terrifying as the first one, but it always makes me feel massive anxiety. Again, once or twice a year, and I never recognize it until I've gone too far in the dream to back out, and it's the same reaction: oh, it's you, I know you, please leave me alone, now I'll be awake all night.

A commercial for a thriller "Strange Shadows in an Empty Room" was about the most frightening thing I ever saw.

R133 I remember that PSA but didn't know about the Sicilian connection until it was mentioned in an episode of The Sopranos!

I've read somewhere that the reason why a lot of people and children are afraid of clowns is because their painted grinning face approximates a fearful grimace, with wide eyes. We subconsciously translate it to aggressive baring teeth.
