Scary Potter:
"The Mysterious Ticking Noise" Harry Potter Video,
the only Harry Potter video that grabs my interest and
doesn't curse me with spine-chilling dreams
I have never been a big Harry Potter fan. When I was little, I tried to get into the books, but I could never get hooked because the books did not interest me. As I grew older, I tried to subject myself to all of the Harry Potter movies, but that did not go over too well. The movies honestly scare me. I am horrible when it comes to loud noises and I get scared very easily. For example, whenever Harry Potter goes into the deep, dark forest, I get scared for him. Also, the huge dog is frightening,
along with the gigantic snake and the extremely creepy Dementors.

Although the Harry Potter movies may be interesting and awesome to others, they scare me more than they should. Also, the Harry Potter movies give be nightmares. I will have a dream that I am having my soul sucked dry by a vicious Dememtor or that I am being swallowed by the creepy vines that will kill you if you do not sit entirely still and allow them to slowly consume you.When I try to sit down and watch Harry Potter with my roommate, I end up in my bed, surrounded by blankets and pillows to protect myself. Along with feeling uncomfortable while watching the movies, I also find them very intense. When I sit down to watch a movie, I want to be able to forget the world for a while and relax. When watching a Harry Potter movie, I feel as if it has

taken a tole on my body. When sitting through the movie, I worry for Harry Potter
(because his life is always being threatened), I get scared at the loud noises and sudden movements, and I sweat to death because I am piled from head to toe with pillows and blankets. My behavior during the Harry Potter movies is why they take a tole on my body and mind. To this day I still try to watch a Harry Potter movie when it is on TV, just to try and see if I have outgrown my childish fears. Thus far, I have miserably failed. So for now, I will stick with watching "The Mysterious Ticking Noise" by the Potter Puppet Pals.
This is interesting way of looking at it, I have always loved Harry Potter, but I guess I could see why you were scared. What kinds of movies do you like?
ReplyDeleteYour video is very funny!! I like how you have an open mind to them even though they scare you. If something gave me nightmares I would definitely not watch them again, so props to you! And I know exactly how you feel when you grab your pillow and blankets! I do the same thing but it's so I don't bite all my finger nails off! What genre of movies are you into?
