I think it's the feeling of being watched. Imagine Penny on Tumblr sharing her thoughts and photos. Then she realizes that someone is closely monitoring her every post, every like, every comment. And this person has malicious intentions. Whether it's through seeing a strange face in the background of her photos or getting messages that hint at them knowing her every move, that constant feeling of being under surveillance is truly the scariest part.
For me, it would be the sense of the unknown seeping into the real world. Say Penny posts something normal like a picture of her garden. Then she starts getting comments about a dark figure that's going to come for her. And then she actually starts seeing glimpses of that figure in real life. The blurring of the line between the online Tumblr world and her real, everyday life is extremely scary.
