What is scariest – aliens, vampires, or being trapped in a place like the Maze?

Definitely the maze! Hands down.

I think aliens. I didn't for a while, but then I read some point by Stephen King and it made sense. Have we ever seen a situation where a more advanced civilization found a less advanced civilization and didn't want to immediately take over them? Also, To Serve Man by Damon knight is downright scary.

I think the maze just because you never know when it's going to be over, but with aliens and vampires, they either kill/enslave you or they don't.

This is a good point...and it never ends well for the colonized...

BUT aliens... idk. First we can't find them. Can they find us? Aliens are sort of a joke. While advanced beats ancient, do they need to find us if they haven't expanded far enough for us to find them? If they we're martians, I'd be worried. But hundreds of light years away, i'm not.


The maze is scariest for me.
