    Done. never again.

    Because you can't see anything. What if someone broke into your house who isn't afraid of the dark? I guess I don't have much logic behind it. :/

    I'm not. I like night time more than daytime in most cases.

    The dark reminds me of death.

    I always have a night light on while I sleep.

    As soon as I see a shape/shadow in the dark and can't figure out what it REALLY is..my mind starts racing, my imagination goes wild and I drive myself crazy with fear!

    It's easier to get attacked in the dark, the element of surprise is very beneficial in attacking someone.
