Meanwhile, Sarah couldn't sleep after watching "Boogeyman" – a classic tale of childhood fears coming to life. These films left a lasting impression and ignited their fascination with all things scary.

Fear is a fascinating journey, from childhood terrors to adult anxieties, and in this episode, we'll delve into it all. So, tune in, and let's revisit those hair-raising movies that shaped Krista and Sarah's love for the spooky and mysterious! 🎬👻 #FearUnveiled #ChildhoodFears #AdulthoodFears
