Gotta go with The Green Mile
Mr. Boogety
if cartoons count, the "return the slab" episode on Courage the cowerdly dog, scared the hell out of me and I couldn't be in the dark for months after.
All Freddy Kruger movies., All Chucky Movies, IT, Grudge, Saw movies
When I was a child Child's Play came on some channel on TV, and since I was a child I thought it was a fun movie for kids. Luckily my much older sister saw what was going on, recognized and knew the movie, and forbade me from watching it. Thanks to her I avoided some kind of phobia, I'm sure.
Saw Backdraft when I wasn't supposed to. Still have to have the door closed to sleep.
Should always sleep with the bedroom door closed. Can provide just enough protection to give you time to escape out a window. Or, be rescued from the window.
Night of the living dead. My brother and I rented it when I was about 7 I think. Didn't make it more than 10 minutes into that movie and I was begging him to turn it off.
The OG Invasion of the Bodysnatchers. I was like, 6? Spent weeks looking under the bed for pods.
Shallow Ground terrified me. I've had nightmares for a while after that.
An honourable mention: The Pirates of Dark Water - The Beast and the Bell. Fuck Keroptus.
Not a movie, but The Real Ghostbusters episode (showing that age) with the Boogeyman was downright terrifying
Candyman, thought of a dark bathroom still scares me.
Witness - I was about the same age as the kid in the movie. I'm still sketched put in Airport/train/bus station bathrooms.

But really just the commercials on TV.
Really showing my age here.
I can't really remember why but I never wanted to watch Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer again after seeing it once. I just googled it and it could be the Ice-Queen that's in there that I didn't like but I'm not sure.
Jeepers Creepers
I can still the remember the little jingle
Body Snatchers (1993)
