Thanks for the advice Sandy. I'm glad you know which escalator I'm talking about. It's a scary one. The other ones that scare the crap out of me are the ones in the Halifax Shopping Centre -- especially the one outside of Sears. Ugh. I can't even go near that one. Fortunately, there's an elevator and a handy staircase in that mall.
I'm okay with the ones in Barrington Place. I think it's because they have a low ceiling and walls on either side.
To make this stranger, I have occasional nightmares about escalators, but they're always escalators going UP -- and those ones don't bother me much IRL. In my dreams, though, they get steeper and steeper and steeper as I'm going up and I'm holding on, trying not to fall, and when I get near the top I realize there's no floor and I'm going to fall off the top.
