Villain - Have you ever played it out in your heard how you'd come to be buried alive? When I was younger I used to keep myself up at night thinking about how my worst fear would become a reality...

In a nutshell, for me it's the Slasher breaking into my home - I used to keep myself up at night as a child thinking what, in my room, I could use to protect myself (it usually came down to my rather heavy boombox - throwing it at them from the top of the stairs).

Even now, at the age of 29, some nights I have this absolutely terrifying certainty that someone is going to break into my apartment and massacre both myself and my boyfriend.

That 's my horror film nightmare come to life - The Human Monster - Slasher - Breaking in and murdering me.

You can discount it because "murders do exist," but when I think of "What would be your worst horror premise come true," that's what I come up with.
I've had nightmares about being buried alive and even woken up still thinking i was and freaked out. Usually it's never scenarios, i'm just always buried. It's usually really vivid and detailed. I can actually feel it when i dream about it. Nothing has ever scared me more.
