3 of them seriously creeped me out with good reason. Living in New England means frozen lakes, so getting stuck in ice is quite real. Falling in a drain, namely a sewage drain was one of my biggest fears as a little kid, cause you don't want to die in complete darkness with no escape. The 3rd creepy one was being swept out to sea. A lot of the local beaches are known to have nasty riptides.
