It\u2019s also essentially a game that is going to make my childhood fears be personified in a video game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">When I was 10 years old, I had a fear of aliens. Not like FOX pictures <em>Aliens<\/em> with Ripley and Bishop, but the whole concept of the existence of waif-bodied, giant-headed, large-eyed aliens, UFOs, abductions and all the wacko conspiracies that existed in regards to them. It didn\u2019t help that shows like <em>Sightings <\/em>and <em>Unsolved Mysteries<\/em> existed that had the occasional episode about them, and I\u2019m not entirely sure where the fear stemmed from, but I became really, really afraid of aliens for a little while.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I\u2019d have bad dreams about aliens, being abducted and having all sorts of weird tracking devices implanted into me or just straight up killed in experimentations. It was so bad that I was afraid of nighttime, because the sky was dark, and I\u2019d be able to see all the flashing lights in the sky that I now know and can identify as particular aircrafts, but when I was a kid, every flashing light in the sky was clearly a UFO, full of aliens that had malicious intent for humanity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Man, did I ever hate going outside at night during those years. The wintertime was really rough, when it would become night at like 5:30 pm, and my mom would make me go to tae kwon do, and the four mile drive to my school, I\u2019d refrain from looking straight or in any direction where I could possibly have peripheral vision of the sky, because blinking lights would scare me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Once, I was lying in bed, to which I could look out a window, and I made the na\u00efve mistake of thinking I wouldn\u2019t see anything from the comfort of my own bed, but that was put to rest real quick when on two different occasions I saw a blinking aircraft pass by in the sky outside my window, and I pretty much never looked out the window again as long as I lived in that home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Halloween was the worst, because it meant having to spend numerous hours outside in the dark, but at least I was with my neighborhood friends, who also weren\u2019t aware of my paranoia and fear of aliens and UFOs. Regardless, I have a particular memory of recklessly glancing up at the sky one Halloween, and seeing a blinking light pattern that was unusual, and naturally had to be a flying saucer full of devious aliens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Eventually, I grew out of this childhood fear. But it doesn\u2019t change the fact that seeing an upcoming game that personifies my greatest childhood fear certainly doesn\u2019t help bring back memories of being scared of night, and being whisked away into the unknown by extraterrestrials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">All the <em>Resident Evils<\/em>, <em>Silent Hills<\/em> and <em>Dead Spaces<\/em> will have absolutely nothing on this game, I can tell this already, by just a preview trailer alone. This game isn\u2019t going to just scare me, it\u2019s going to make me lose sleep, be afraid of the dark, and probably make me not want to look up at the night sky again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">And yet like a retard, I\u2019m intrigued, and very might well attempt to acquire it to put my fears to the test.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ufeff This is a preview trailer for a game called The Hum: Abductions, where it\u2019s essentially a game about people being abducted by aliens.
