i remember reading the animorphs books as a bb and taking them too seriously and being genuinely afraid of yeerks and controllers also that one roald Dahl book about witches. i thought my teacher was one
when i was in 5th grade i moved from reading goosebumps to r.l. stine's teen books but the only one i really remember reading was about a family moving into a new house that is really old and haunted, and stuff like chunky blood coming through the faucets happens, and the sister of the heroine loses her finger through a door smashing on it or the garbage disposal suddenly starting, either way it made me terrified of both those things up to the present day
there was another book i think was a fear street book about an evil black cat but i can't remember anything about it other than descriptions of an empty suburban street with dead trees lining it
OMG also i read a non-horror book about a boy with a black cat who he learns can talk one day, and the cat says "all cats can talk, we just don't see the point, also we can travel through time and space" and then they do that and go to like egypt and shit
