    The dark is safe. The dark is your friend. The dark hides you from your enemies and the dark is a womb. How in the world could you be afraid of the dark?

    It's an innate feeling: most humans are at least wary of the dark. As somebody said we rely heavily on our sight, so when we can't see our other senses become more active and our modern minds tell us what could be out there.
    If we weren't so alert in the dark then we could be ambushed by a predator.

    It's normal. We use our sight to detect danger so it is normal to feel threatened when in the dark.

    I am terrified of the dark. I wish I wasn't, but I have an overactive horrific imagination when I can't see. Its irrational and consumes me.

    When I am with someone else its not so bad because I try to act like the unafraid and joking one and it makes things better.

      well next time your in the dark, just pretend that your with someone else, it shouldn't be had cause if you listen closely, you can hear heavy breathing and the rasping of claws on a hard surface, and a tiny voice whispering your name.... >8D BWAHAHAHHAHAAHAH

    It is totally normal to fear the unknown. I love the darkness, but when I walk in a dark room, I am scared to death because I don't know what's behind me. If I was forced to sit in the middle of a dark room, I would be freaking out and would be checking to see what is behind me numerous times. But if I am sitting in a chair in the corner of a very dark room, I would be fine because I can see everything that is happening.

    It's not normal, but that doesn't make it bad.
