If someone should point a gun to your head, you have every right to be scared out of your skin but sometimes you find yourself in some unharmful situation that still scares the living lights out of you.
1. Cockroaches In The Night
If your room is infested with cockroaches and you love to wake up and work at night, then you will understand this better. Cockroaches love to come out at night to play while you sleep, that’s when they mess things up in your cupboard. If you were to wake up at night and hear them play, you might think someone or something is running towards you and that can scare the living hell out of you.

2. Purring Cats
Cats love to purr but if you’re aware they doing it while rubbing themselves against your legs, you don’t really mind but if you’re working at night and you’re not aware they are under the table and before you know it, they start purring and rubbing themselves against you, you’re likely to jump out of your chair.
3. Silhouettes
Silhouettes are what scares almost all of us in the night, the reason why we need lights. Sometimes you wake up at night to grab something from the fridge and because all the lights are out and the moon is bright, the light from the moon can throw a silhouette of a tree by your window into your living room and make it look like the boogie man trying to kill you and trust that thing can make you scared to death.
