What is the most frightening thing you can recall happening to you?

Now, I don't mean serious thing, but maybe a comical thing.

Here's one I can recall.....

There was this abandoned house used by a bunch of winos to drink in. One woman wino was in a fight and was hit with something and had to be taken to the hospital. After arriving at the house, I had to go to the hospital and find out what it was she was hit with. She told me it was a fire extinguisher so I had to return to the house and get the extinguisher.

The winos had been getting into the house by pulling open a section of plywood over the rear door.

So I returned and went through the rear door not really paying much attention because we had chased the winos away and told them not to return. Walking into the house without a care in the world, I about crapped my pants when I walked into the living room and was startled by a disabled wino. He must have had a stroke or something because half of his face was drooping and the same arm was down at his side.

The thing that startled me was as soon as I entered the room, he turned to me, raised one arm and started mumbling and staggering towards me just like a George Romero zombie. That is exactly what he looked like too.

To add to it, I think that I startled him and his jumping a bit even startled me more.

Somehow I didn't piss down my leg.
