You should try night diving if you think regular scuba is creepy. The only thing you can see is where your flash light is shining. Things zooming thru the beam and only catch a glimpse of what it is.

A lot of fish come out at night. Ya always have that feeling that something is creeping up behind you.

I can sure attest to that! My first open water dive was in '91 in Cozumel. 80' night dive. Man was that spooky when all you see is the dive master's light poking straight up as a guide from the floor and all you hear is your breathing. To see the eel's snarl (??) at you from their rocks or baby octopuses (octopii?) scurrying silently is eerie!!! Loved it!! But, of course, the thought of some Jaws swallowing you from behind - then my Faith kicks in big time!
