I've never been afraid so much as uncomfortable. Up until recently, if my room was dark, I just.. couldn't sleep. Something about the light drowns out the random noises of the night. Then a few months ago the TV being on all night bugged me, and I tried sleeping with it off. It was much better. But, the little lights on the DVD player and the red light that's on when the TV is off annoy me now. XD

Being outside at night used to scare me, but now I don't care. Except when me & my friends are camping and the stupid dogs walking around all night make footsteps and breath heavily right outside the tent. That gets a little scary, but it's not the darkness, it's that we're going to get attacked by something. XDDD
 
If Its pitch..

If Its pitch black, I instantly get reminded of a scary film/dvd, and run as fast as I can
into the light. Im Insanely scared.
 
Yeah, in my house, if there's no night light or anything, its pitch black, you can't see your hand in front of your face, cause our house is 3/4 encompassed by trees (not closely spaced, but still.) Therefore, we have a couple of night lights strategically placed around the house, either in the bedrooms or near a bathroom or whatever. However, as long as there's an adequate source of light, such as the moon or something that illuminates the room enough for me, then I'm fine. I really prefer the night light though, the glow's much warmer, and its got a scent thing, so it emits a prettyful scent. =D
 
Let's see. Sometimes, it depends. I'm usually a bit scared when i'm alone in the dark but when other people are with me, i'm not. :3
 
nope. : ) try walking at night and you'll see what i mean. but i was kinda scared of the dark when i was a little kid and had to sleep with the light on but i got over it eventually
 
Nope. I also grew out of it. Annnnnd I'm not one for horror movies, so maybe that helps? XD;

I prefer it to be completely dark, really, it helps me relax and get to sleep. The slightest bit of light keeps me up. (No alarm clock for me) For example, I have to take the power chord for the 360 out of the jack because that orange "off-mode" light is so annoying.
 
No, not really. i also go for a run in the evenings in winter when it pretty dark outside and there is hardly anybody there bacause i run next to this field with nicely done macadam path. and i kind of like it when it's really foggy and people's shapes juts appear out of nowhere when i run toward them:P
 
Not really, though when I was small I get scared by the dark occasionally.
 
No but I use to be scared when I was little and I use to tell my Mum to turn the lamp back on because she turns it off when I played up; yes I was hard to get to bed.

I enjoy even seeing things move in the dark but not if it is a spider or cockaroach.... because that has happened.. arrr
 
of course not, nothing scares me at dark or night.
 
I don't scared of the dark...depends on my mood.
 
I'm not usually afraid of the dark now, but up until I was 16, I used to be REALLY scared of the dark for no real reason at all. But I always slept in the same room as my dad and brother (in different beds of course) so I didn't mind being in the dark once I got to bed.

Nowadays the only time darkness makes me jumpy is when I'm in an unfamiliar place and it never bothers me when I'm about to go to sleep.
 
When I was younger I was nervous about it at times, but by now I actually rather like it. :] Unless I'm in a totally unfamiliar place, I have no problems whatsoever with it.

Only thing that really gets me is if I'm walking/sleeping by an uncovered window (or anything similar) while it's dark. Doing so creeps me out, because then I start wondering if anybody might be trying to look in...
