I’m afraid of spiders because they are creepy. They have six creepy legs. Just the thought of it climbing on me sends goosebumps down my spine. I’m also scared of their fangs too.
Logan Lester, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I personally am afraid of being forgotten. Just the thought of having family and friends forget about your existence when you move school or work locations and even when you die. You probably don’t want to be forgotten either and I don’t blame you, that’s what friends and family are for, being there for you when you need them, and they should not be able to forget you like that if they were a good friend or family member.

What are you afraid of? I´m afraid of copperhead almost bit me. This a real story all about me. One day I was outside playing tag with my baby brother Ronnie Addison. A copperhead bit me on arm. My mom had to take me to the doctor. He had to give me medicine. When I got home I took my medicine .Then when I took my medicine I felt better.
Markus Wheet, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of spiders. Why? Because one day I was at my house but the door was locked and we didn’t know where my parents were. We were looking through the windows and stuff but I forgot that there was huge spider that had built a web. And it was night time and I had stepped into the web and I started screaming and crying. But in the end the spider was in a different web and i had freaked out over nothing.

I am afraid of upside down roller coasters. Once I was on a roller coaster at Dollywood. I cannot remember what the roller coaster was called, but it was so bad. I cried. We go down and upside to side. The upside down part was the worst of all. I am NOT going on upside down roller coasters again.
Megan Fleenor, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

What are you afraid of? I am afraid of beetles and stinkbugs. I mean EWW! Look at those things! They look so nasty and if one crawls near me I freak out! Stinkbugs don’t even get me started. If you kill one of those things it stinks. One time there was a stinkbug in my hair! I was screaming and yelling! Beetles are such big insects. They look so creepy and so do stinkbugs. Do you like beetles and stinkbugs? I sure don’t. I am being serious. Nasty bugs. I found a stinkbug in my room and made my mom vacuum it up. I absolutely am afraid of beetles and stinkbugs.
Miley Stapleton, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of flies. They are so sneaky you would just sit there and watch fly on all of your food. I really don´t like the way they fly around your head it feels so weird. I just don´t think they that scary but they are annoying.
Nathan Shelburne, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of clowns. It was Halloween. I was going door to door getting candy. And something came up behind me and touched me. I turned around it was a clown with a chain saw. I ran and it ran after me. It started up its chain saw. It about caught me. I ran to the woods and I saw a barn I ran in to the barn. And there stood a tall clown. It had a knife. While I ran it followed. Both of the clowns looked at me then them then me again. I ran, they were chasing me. I slide under a fence where the cows were they did to. I hide in a bush. They came and found me. I ran out of the woods and went to the house. I was scared mom said what is wrong said….The clowns there outside. Mom opened the door. They came in. I ran out the back door.

I am afraid of big spiders because I got chased by one in the woods. I been afraid of them since. The spider I got chased by is this big brown spider and it had a white egg. I think it was the scariest thing I have ever seen.
Nick Barber, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of spiders. I’m afraid of spiders because some spiders bite and the bite could kill you. I remember a few years ago I was riding my bike on the pavement and a spider jumped on my hand, I freaked out and I wrecked my bike. I had cuts from head to toe. That is why I am afraid of spiders because I don’t want to get hurt.
Olivia Mitchell, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of the woods. I could be seen by a bear and get hurt or be seen by a wildcat and get bit. I could also get rabies and have to go to the hospital to get a shot. I am also afraid of the woods because of snakes and mushrooms that are poisonous.
Piper Linton, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am terrified of paper work! It feels weird and gives paper cuts! I have to do so much. I feel like my hand barely hangs on my arm! So in conclusion I hate paper work!
Randy Litton, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

What is your worst fear? Mine is heights. My family and I went to Chattanooga, TN. We went to Rock City and Ruby Falls. Rock City was on top of a huge mountain with big rocks. The main reason people go there, is because of the big bridge is over a waterfall and a cliff. When I thought,” that bridge isn’t even high”, well when I got on it I got dizzy, really dizzy so I got off the bridge and had a seat. When we got to the hotel I fell right to sleep. I never thought about that moment ever again.
Riya Lewis, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

What are you afraid of? That is a question that people ask me all the time. My answer is always snakes, bears, and clowns. The reason I am afraid of bears is in the winter there is some bears behind my house. Sometimes they snore and it kind of scares me. For a weird reason I think a bear is going to come and eat me alive. The reason I am scared of snakes is there scales make me cringe. I remember one time there was a snake on my mamaw and papaw carport. My little brother decided to name him Dan. Back to the story this snake was laying on the carport. My papaw just stepped over a 6 foot snake. The reason I am afraid of clowns is no person can smile that much. When the clown fiasco was going on my family and I were watching the news. The report on the clowns came on and my little brother and I started to cry. For two weeks I was scared a clown was going to come from the closet and eat me, and ever since then I have been scared of clowns.

At my cousins you might not believe this. Their house was covered with decorations and they had a fake witch. Well one day I spent a night at their house. I woke up at the middle of the night. I was thirsty so I thought maybe I should go get a drink of water. So I went to the kitchen and I tripped into the floor and I looked up to see who made me trip. I screamed. The toy witch was standing there and my cousin came to see who was screaming. My cousin turned on the light and he saw me on the floor. Why are you on the floor and screaming?
Subrina Eldridge, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

What Are You Afraid Of? I am afraid of clowns. They are scary because they jump out at you and scare you. One time there was people in Pennington dressed up as clowns and they were scaring people. It was bad everybody was scared of them .And I saw one and it was scary to me. Because I had never seen a person dressed up as a clown. They just wave at you and some clowns might even try to hurt you some of them just dress up to dress up others just dress up to scare you or to hurt you. Some clowns are mean to people and try to hurt them sometimes. I hate clowns because of all of these reasons they are mean so stay away from clowns or try to stay away from them they could hurt you. So be careful everywhere you go.
Taylor Bishop, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am deathly afraid of spiders because I was playing video games one day and I walked to my room to get more batteries for my controller. A big spider was on my floor. I was terrified. It made me so scared that I ran into the bathroom and locked the door. My mom ran in and said, “what’s wrong?” I said, “there is a spider in my floor.” She killed it, or so we thought. That night I was going to sleep and it was on my wall. I ran in the living room and thought, “could it ever be killed?” I was getting ready to get my mom but she was asleep and I thought she would get mad at me. I finally got my shoe and crushed it. I slept on the couch that night and have been afraid of spiders ever since.
Taylor McKnight, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of a lot of things but mostly I am afraid of clowns. When I was in fourth grade there was a fall festival with a haunted house. I went in the haunted house with my sister and my step brother’s friend. There was a very long line. Once we finally got in the first thing that happened was a clown jumped out and asked me if I would like to eat some eyes with him. Ever since then I was terrified of clowns.
Taylor Shupe, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of a bear because I have seen a mom bear with a baby bear. My dad has seen a bear that is big. My mom has seen a bear. He ate my chicken and my feed. My friend shot a bear. I am afraid of a bear because they can eat your feed and your animals.
Trey Cretors, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of clowns. Why are you asking? Have you ever been at a fair or circus? Clowns are scary and ugly men. One day I was going to my friend’s house with my mom and out of the blue I saw a clown coming towards us and it scared me. My mom a hit the gas as much as she could and that’s why I am afraid of clowns.
Trsvis Eldridge, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I´m afraid of clowns. Every time I look up clowns on YouTube it creeps me out. I think that one’s going to come into my room. What creeps me out is the masks they wear. A video on YouTube and I saw a clown on top of a billboard. It just looked like it was stalking everybody. Then I watched another video and this guy was pulling in his car and he looked into one of his bushes and saw a clown. It just creeped me out. I’ll never watch that again!
Walker Baker, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of haunted houses. I am afraid of haunted houses because the creepy characters and the weapons. I’m also afraid of it because monsters can touch you and chase you. But most of all, it’s dark and there can be scary music and screaming for help.
Zach Lane, 5th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Austin

I am afraid of bears because every time I go in the woods by myself I am looking around me for bears because I do not like them and that’s what I am afraid of.
Adam Barber, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Jones

Snakes and spiders they are both disgusting animals. Snakes are dangerous and have big tails and will win the fight. Spiders are no worse than snakes, just way smaller and fuzzy and have weird things to bite and don’t think they are nice.
