Nice try, Doctor

After all the Doctor Who episodes that have scared the living daylights out of me, how odd that the one that was trying really hard to scare me ("Hide") couldn't do it. Oh, I jumped a little when "Romeo" (heh) growled at the door, or got in the Doctor's face that one time, but that was about it. Maybe it's because I watched it in broad daylight, or because I've finally seen all the ghost-story tropes enough times to be used to them, or even because I found Jessica Raine as Emma a little less than convincing.

Or maybe this show has finally toughened me up at last! And they said it couldn't be done.

ETA: . . . Or maybe not, because those Gollum things in the new episode just scared the ever-living CRAP out of me.
