There is, as always, a silver lining in everything, and so NOT everything about FEAR and being scared should be deemed as "bad". Fear (i.e. the underlying cause/trigger which makes you scared) is a very "reliable" emotion and as such it can truly be counted on as an important and prudential evolutionary tool for self-preservation and emotional growth (as in say facing up to/overcoming your fears, phobias and insecurities; not subjecting yourself to unnecessary risks; etc.) … So, not unlike "stress", a healthy dose of fear is also indispensable to a normal human development and the continuation of life. But the downside of it is that since evolutionary/life challenges can be encountered in limitless varieties and degrees, there is also no limit to the nature and intensity of "fears" (real, imaginary, or otherwise) that can be experienced. And generally speaking, we each encounter fear, in our daily lives, in the necessary forms and doses needed for our own individual growth. But, of course, human beings, being human beings, we tend to easily go overboard and be overwhelmed and dominated by our emotions in "pathological proportions". So when you ask me what scares me the "most", you are, in effect, asking me to do a brain scan of the full range of my fears and decide which one would bring out the "scariest" reactions and phobias in me. And so I could say, for instance, being eaten alive by sharks while lost in the middle of the ocean where no one can hear my screams, or I could say what scares me the most is the fear of "the unknown", or even knowing that I am a nutty risk-taking adrenaline junky who is incapable of feeling enough fear to save my life, etc. Most of us, however, do NOT even know, and thankfully have not ever experienced, all the potentially fearful circumstances that might scare the wits out of us. For instance, some people might tell you what scares them the most is "ignorance" and, in fact, they maybe quite sincere about their assertion, considering the everyday reality of their pampered lives, but does that mean that given the right circumstances they could not potentially be made even more horrifically scared of other fearful events and situations? In all, people may think they are more scared of some things as opposed to others, but I would argue that anyone can be made morbidly sacred of just about anything, if the conditions were right. So, personally speaking, I am potentially scared of Everything and Nothing at the same time, in other words, I take my fears as I face them and do not really have a "favorite" one.

If u are talking about literally scare , think Ghost scares me most .
On the other hand , the feeling that I am losing control over a lot of things , the feeling of hopelessness and the agony of waiting , like doctor telling you dead or alive or a gun is pointing at you that the decision you live or die is beyond your control , this is scare.
