Why do i still get scared?
I'm an atheist, therefore I don't believe in demons, I also don't believe in ghosts, monsters or aliens visiting us yet I have an unrational fear of ghosts.
We live in a three story house with my brother sleeping downstairs, there's stairs down but no door so turning the light on at night wakes him up so if I have to come down at night it's in the dark.
I know these things don't exist but sometimes if I come downstairs at night my mind pictures things reaching out for me in the dark and following me up the stairs etc, I know they don't exist but occasionally still creep myself out like this, IIN?
