So my brother has always found skeletons absolutely horrifying. In fact as children I would always place skeletons in his room to scare the crap out of him. As for myself, I have always taken a more logical approach. They just don't scare me because I think that they would have no strength. I don't even get how they can walk. This is what he thinks are so scary about them.
So do skeletons scare you? Or what does?
I personally am very afraid of horses. Don't ask. Fine you can ask. I just don't like "domesticated" animals that can kill you with one kick. Like I said, I take a more logical approach when it comes t scary.

policemen are scary. think about it... we give them so much power over us... what if they misuse it?
So skeleton Policemen would be scary then? lol
Agree with OP though, Logically skeletons just don't make sense, and they tend to be the easiest foe's in games. Things that could be possible or believable on some level are much scarier.

My greatest fear is being eaten alive. I imagine it to be pretty much the worst way to die. (I can't really think of anything worse). As a result, most of my fears revolve around that. I also get very uncomfortable with the idea of having things stuck into my body or having things removed from it (hence surgery and needles also bother me).
I can see how skeletons could bother someone on an emotional level, though. They are representative of death, dying, the dead. If someone is afraid of dying or is afraid of what may lie beyond known life it makes some sense to have a fear of skeletons.
Both just creep me right the hell out, it's not necessarily "scary", it's more like I get an unnerving feeling when around them.
But as far as actual fear goes, definitely being burned or buried alive.
And come to think of it Jetrall, being eaten alive would be pretty horrendous as well :/.

I saw human bones many times to study them. I guess seeing them all together, chasing me with a sword would be scary.
The one thing I'm most scared of must be snails. I don't know why, but they freak me out. It's not just that they are completely disgusting, there's something else. If you ever want to torture me, put me in a small room full of snails, turn on the light so I can see them, and then leave me in the dark. I'd scream like a little girl

How about being raped to death with a blunt hand-made object while your limbs are being cut off piece by piece with gardening tools and maggots are eatting your brains.

Or you have a lot of imagination, or you have seen that somewhere, or you have a problem(just kidding :P), I think the worse way of dying is being crushed, I don't wanna feel my brain being crushed by something slowly >< or drowned, worst ways for me.

It's what police do when human corpses are burnt or rotted beyond recognition. Teeth can survive anything.
