Fear is such a powerful sensation, don't you think? ... so tell us, do you have this one?

Tis the witching hour: The one irrational fear of Amanda Arista
As you know, we are a blog dedicated to the sexy things that go bump in
the night. So it really shouldn't surprise you that most of us aren't
really afraid of the dark. We have demons, vampires, werewolves, and fey
running through our heads most of the time. And those are the good
guys. Each year, I take months to plan what scary little devil I'm going
to be for Halloween. With this new series that I am still working on, I've discovered that it takes a lot to scare me. If you've read the blog before, I grew up on a steady diet of serial killers and exorcism movies growing up. I'll take a good haunting any day. Doesn't phase me much.
Even
it comes to the real world, I'm pretty much the same. No fear of
flying. Heights don't bother me. I'm the girl who picks up the bugs in
the office and takes them outside. I used to be squeamish around
needles, but working in a hospital for eight years got me over that. I
love deep water, have no problem with pitch black rooms, and don't mind
being in a big crowd.
However, Hollywood has finally revealed to me what I am afraid of:
LARGE HORDES OF FAST-MOVING ZOMBIES
At least I can say it outloud now.
