When I was about 8 years old (2016) I woke up early while my parents were still asleep and turned on the TV to see what to watch. Superjail was on and I cried due to so much gore being on the TV, even if it was cartoon gore. I was 8.

    The Are You Afraid of the Dark episode with the drain monster. Couldn’t stand on the drain in the shower for about 8 years afterward.

      I just remember the pinball episode. Actually I remember almost nothing about the episode except a giant pinball showing up at the end. I don’t remember why that was so terrifying but it definitely left a mark for some reason.

        Why do I remember that specific visual from that episode and basically nothing else? The…mall was in the pinball machine?

        There was the episode with Gilbert Gottfried who was a radio announcer, there was an episode about a ghost monster thing in the pool that the kid turned orange with chemicals…some 30 year old neurons are firing over here folks, and they ain’t firing that bright.

        I remember the pinball one, but it was the one with the weird house with all the mirrors that got me.

        It was this red kelpy blood clot that would come out of swimming pool drains and shower drains and kill children. I don’t know anything else about it than that, but it got me good. I don’t remember the pinball 😹
