The 'Weird Childhood Fears' Hashtag Will Haunt You Even As An Adult

We’re all afraid of something: heights, the ocean, clowns. But when we’re little, those fears ― whether big, small or in some cases, totally weird ― feel so much more debilitating. Whether it was monsters under the bed or falling through a sidewalk grate, the sometimes irrational but very real fears that come with being a kid are equal parts hilarious and universal in retrospect.
