When I was little, I used to love watching horror movies. However, they scared me so much that I would never watch the "scary" parts.
Despite that, I loved The Nightmare on Elm Street series.
I tried to watch the scary parts, and they gave me nightmares.
I tried to not go to sleep for quite a while after that, because I was scared that Freddy was going to come get me again, although I had lived through the first one. He had killed all the survivors from the movie so naturally there was only me left to kill...
