    I just hit 40. there were tons of Bigfoot and loch Ness monster books written in the 70s that our library had. Plus, I remember Whitley Streiber on Johnny Carson. Alien Abduction has freaked me out ever since.

    I'm just a couple years younger. As a non-religious kid, I was terrified of alien abduction. I didn't believe in supernatural stuff but the idea that maybe aliens really did kidnap people and abuse them scared the hell out of me. Plenty of nightmares.

    Oh yeah. I didn't believe in ghosts, but I spent a lot of time under the covers convinced if I looked there would be giant almond eyes looking down at me.

    nooooo

    I used be scared to wash my hair when I was a kid. I was convinced there would be a Hopkinsville Goblin clawing at the shower window when I opened my eyes.

    Do you have a copy of the Big Book of the Unexplained? It sums up everything I read about as a kid.

    This sort of thing... childhood obsession. I kind of wish I had kept up, but now I don't even watch the Ancient Aliens stuff and I killed my subscription to the Fortean Times :(

Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.

Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world.
