Instances of childhood trauma

I have a few I can think of off the top of my head, and many I can't. I was a kid that frightened easily. 


1) My music teacher in elementary school played us this and the part at around 5:51 freaked everyone out. Unfortunately the video quality of this upload isn't the best. 

(Here's a mirror in case this gets taken off.)



2) Cry Baby Lane freaked me out as a small kid--I was haunted by the memory of it for weeks. (Of course, now I have no idea why.) I've talked about this at length many times now so I won't elaborate beyond that.


3) For some reason, this story from Encyclopedia Brown Shows the Way ("The Case of the Lady Ghost") really scared me even as a third grader. Basically, a kid who's all alone on the beach sees what he thinks is the ghost of a bride, and that scenario was terrifying to me. I actually refused to sleep in my own bed that night, and it's the oldest I ever wanted to sleep in my parent's room as a kid.

A slightly less creepy (to an 8 year old me) chapter of the same book ("The Case of the Headless Runner") also frightened me. That one involved Encyclopedia and a friend walking home from a scary movie marathon in the middle of the night when they are accosted by a seemingly headless figure. The idea of being in that situation is also scary to a small child.

Even the rest of the cases in that book, which did not involve explicitly creepy things happening, unsettled young-me for some reason and I don't know why. Maybe it was something about the writing style and/or illustrations.
