Creepy uncanny feeling when revisiting something from early childhood.

Jamesmac

So, back when I was very little, my sister and I used to watch a program called Mopatop's Shop. As an adult, all I really remembered from it was the title and nothing else. So, to satisfy my curiosity, I searched it, and what I saw gave me serious chills for some reason. It's only a bunch of Jim Henson puppets, totally innocent, but something about it felt very unnerving.

Anyone else get these weird feelings when rediscovering a piece of forgotten media from their early childhoods?

  • I remember the original Flowerpot men, I used to love it when they went through the hole in the fence and it was all strange.

    I think a lot of childrens tv from the 60's and 70's was quite strange, Fortean Times magazine has been running a series called The Haunted Generation, covering TV from then. Thinking back on it, it's no wonder so many of may generation grew up a bit weird.

    I never liked Andy Pandy or Sooty and Sweep.
