What sketches scared you as a kid?

[D'Snowth]

I remember as a little kid, one bit that used to kind of scare me a little bit...

It was an animated segment, but it was animated in a strange way... it was like colored sand or powder or something against a black background - it started out as a red and yellow letter B, then scattered into another frame, where the sand/powder formed itself into a buffalo, before returning to the letter B... all the while, this really ominous, creepy music played in the background.

The only other segment like that I remember featured pink and blue colored sand/powder that went from the letter B, to a large B, back to the letter B... that one was a lot more pleasant, mainly because unlike the buffalo one, it had cheerful, sea music playing in the background. So yeah, I liked the boat one, but the buffalo one did creep me out a little.

The "Monster in the Mirror" sketch where Grover is shown outside looking at his cartoonish reflection from the window kinda freaked me out only a little. Especially when the reflection grew large. As well as some other bits with Grover and his reflection in the sketch.

Ironically, a lot of sketches I remember seeing as a kid actually made me laugh rather than scared.

I was always scared of the larger Muppets. Not so much of Sweetums and the hairy ones, but the Mutations and such. When I was a kid, the Muppets' eyes always freaked me out too.

Along those same lines (larger Muppets) Giant Animal in the Muppet Movie always freaked me out as a kid

My mom would always play me the Frog Prince and I would scream and cry when I saw Sweetums

I remember being a tad bit scared of Frazzle when I was little. He wasn't absolutely horrifying or anything, but he was a little freaky-looking.

And Beaker. I don't know why but Beaker always used to scare me. Maybe because of the way his mouth opened.

Have any of those Muppet characters appeared in any Classic Sesame Street sketches, or have ever appeared on Sesame Street period? If so, then perhaps this isn't getting tat bit off the topic then.

I know that Kermit's been in a few Sesame Street sketches.

That's so scary when you're little. And when you look up the lyrics, somehow that's scary too.
