In 2016, when my family and I went to WDW, I remember being super nervous to ride Seven Dwarves Mine Train. I am not a huge roller coaster person, so I always get a bit nervous when I try a new coaster. I put my nerves aside because I so badly wanted to ride Seven Dwarves (I had watched so many roller coaster povs before we got to WDW;)) I remember being very nervous as we waited in line. After riding it, I loved it so much that I rode it three more times that same day!! It’s one of my favs in the MK :)

I used to be terrified of fireworks too! My older brother LOVED illuminations as a kid, but I was the polar opposite. My mom would have to take me into one of the gift store while the grand finale happened because I was just so scared. :?
But nowadays I love them, and would do anything to see Illuminations happen again. I also used to be super scared of Test Track, only because of that one part where the car comes rushing towards the closed doors... I always imagined what would happen if the doors never opened. :shock: :lol:

Haunted Mansion scared me as a kid. I thought the ghosts could really get me. Now it’s one of my favorite rides!

Also true for me. Snow White's Scary adventure frightened me so much as a kid that I covered my eyes the whole way through. Then I complained to my Dad that I missed the whole thing and wanted to go again. He was not about to stand in line for it again, though. :D I enjoyed having the chance to ride it before it closed as an adult with my own son. He was not bothered by it in the least even though he was quite young at the time.
Definitely the one I was going to say. Snow White terrified me. I also had a hard time with any type of roller coaster and now I love them.
