The red monster on the sideart on my Gauntlet is freaking out my 3 year old. He was literally shaking saying the monster was going to get him. Its the red one in the side art pictured below.

I had to print a picture of Geo and Bot from Team Umizoomi and cover the red monster picture. Now hes cool with it. LOL

Haha. Reminds me of when I was about that age, my parents took me to the mall to get an autographed poster of Darth Vader (just some dude in a Vader suit signing posters). They patiently waited in line for a long time so I could get my poster.
We got home and hung it in my room, and I woke up hysterical in the middle of the night because I was afraid of Darth Vader.
All that waiting in line, and the poster didn't even make it 24 hours in my room.

Mine was the movie "Silver Bullet". I begged my parents to watch it at 10 years old insisting I was old enough. Didn't sleep for a week after! Did I mention we had a half German Shepard half wolf dog that slept in my room? :eek:
 
I don't seem to have that problem with my three year old niece but she does wana play with my machine. Unfortunately she doesn't quite have enough coordination to really play games yet...

As a kid I had Kiss posters all over my room. Most of my friends were too scared to go in my room because of them. I was afraid of a few things at that age but for some reason I was cool with Kiss.

No wonder I'm so screwed up.
 
When I was 6, the art on a Space Fury cab used to terrify me. Especially the marquee.

When I was a kid we had a Pinball called Orbiter, with one of those computer generated voices, and every once in a while it would glitch, and just start spouting gibberish in this creepy computer voice. Id' have nightmares about being chased by that machine while it gibbbered away...
 
I have always found the blue ghost on Pac-Man side art to be creepy. However, I have a long standing love for the game and try to overlook that.
 
When I was very little I saw the movie Dark Man, I believe theres a scene when his face goes into a pot of acid... I woke up in cold sweats for a week,
 
hehehe.... this reminds me of my 3 year old too.

kinda weird too cuz he loves darth vader, creature from the black lagoon, wolfman, and on and on...

but whenever we visit the mall and rainforest cafe that damn TRACY TREE freaks him the F out!! everytime.
