Santa Claus?!!

No, not really -- though I never wanted anything to do with him!!

I really can't think of anything in particular that scared me as a child -- maybe because I wasn't exposed to any scary movies or books until I was older. I did love "The Sound of Music" but I don't think I ever thought of it as scary but I can certainly see what you mean about the Nazi's. Reality is definitely scarier than fiction.

Nowadays, I love scary movies/books and ghosthunting programs  but nothing really bothers me. The last thing I can remember that scared the hell out of me was back in college (I must have been around 20) and we watched the first miniseries of Stephen King's, "'Salem's Lot"...scared the living hell out of me...ugliest vampire...just petrifying! In the book, though, the "head" vampire was very handsome, not ugly at all.
