What scares you might not scare someone else. And it's not just clashing opinions within the horror community that divide us on what's truly terrifying. What you yourself find scary evolves over time too. But even if horror you're familiar with holds less power over you than it used to, there's something about the scares you first encounter as a child that hold a unique ability to unsettle above all else, even if as an adult you wouldn't bat an eyelid if you came across these stories for the first time now.
Thinking back to those early horrors can bring on a kind of reverse-nostalgia, a childhood comfort turned sour that you can only remember in parts like a fading dream or nightmare. That's the uniquely strange sensation that I Saw The TV Glow excavates from the unconscious corners of your mind.
