When I was a kid, I absolutely hated scary movies.
I never watched any of The Nightmare on Elm Street movies and I didn’t see anything from the Stephen King series. I went to a sleepover with some friends when I was 12. We watched the movie Child’s Play and that scared me for years. I had nightmares and I couldn’t sleep without a light in my bedroom. When I was in college, my girlfriend suggested we watch a scary movie. I didn’t want to watch the horror film at all, but she begged me to attend the screening with her. A friend of mine suggested smoking pot before going to the movie and I thought that sounded like a fun and interesting idea. My friend brought me a joint with sativa marijuana. The two of us smoke the entire joint before my girlfriend arrived to pick me up for the movie. When she showed up, I was already starting to giggle. I was feeling very relaxed and lightheaded. My girlfriend wasn’t entirely happy when I told her that Jack and I smoke a joint, but she was thrilled with my easy-going demeanor. She thought I was going to be a scared ball of nerves, but I laughed throughout most of the movie. After smoking pot, the horror scenes didn’t seem real. It seemed more like a funny movie than something scary and horror related. The sativa marijuana worked really well. I had a lot of success and I’ve continued to enjoy these types of movies with the help of recreational weed products.
