Of course, I am! It’s the dark. It’s where monsters live. They love to hide around corners, chase me up darkened stairs, and hang out under my bed. Thus far, I have escaped their grasp and torture. But it’s only because I run from the dark to the light or get into bed as quickly as possible. (Monsters may love hiding under beds, but they can’t tolerate being on them. We should all feel lucky because of that fact.)
No, I’m not scared of the dark. In fact, I find the darkness sort of soothing and calming.
