Not anymore but I know when I was a kid the Chamber of Secrets in particular used to give me the heeby jeebies. Hearing a bodiless voice hissing "I SMELL BLOOD! KILL! KILL!" in an ancient magic castle really is scary for an 8 year old!
I don't really think they're scary anymore but they've certainly got a LOT of suspense which gets my heart racing!

i agree the chamber of secrets used to creep me out.
Um, not really. I find them fascinating, adventurous, fast paced, and at times humorous. The last one was a bit... sad, although I did enjoy some of the lighter moments in the story. I found the first movie somewhat scary, but I was young at the time. I love these books and think they are fabulous.

i love the books also,i think there really amazing and really wonderful :)
Yes definitely, when you read them for the first time. And esp at the ends of the books. Just think of the part when Voldemort gets a new body in GoF, or when Dumbledore and Harry take the fake horcrux. I'm completely frightened sometimes when I read em, and I'm not an 8 year.
