When I was around eight when I started watching this for the first time...And having a mad obsession with ghosts, vampires and demons already at that age, I found 'Are you afraid of the dark?' simply spell-binding.
The show starts off with a bunch of kids gathering around a fire in the woods, they chatter amongst each other and then one member of this group known as 'The Midnight Society' begins to tell a tale of the supernatural..Some episodes were stupid...But then some are just spine tinglingly fun...I truly loved this show with a vengeance and I guess this gave way to the 'Goosebumps' books being turned into a show...
But seriously, I recently saw the intro of the show again...And just take a look.. the rocking boat on the lonesome shore...a swing rocking back and forth and the haunting music in the background...Nowadays..This kind of intro would be censored for being too scary....I'm truly glad I grew up in the 90's.
