Show.... Don't Tell!

Today, Wairere writers learned to respect their readers by not telling the reader all the details.  It is important to sometimes show, not tell all the details.  I wonder if you can use the clues to figure out what emotion is being described.

"I gulped.  I shook in the darkness and my teeth began to chatter.  All of a sudden..... BANG!"  by Alexus


"A shiver ran down my spine. My body started stiffening.  I was taking my dog for a walk in the park.  Someone was watching me, I knew it!"  by Hannah
