​What’s an overused phrase you can’t stand in stories?

I listen to a podcast called Darkness Prevails, which is awesome, but I swear if I hear someone say their blood ran cold one more time, I’ll pull my hair out. The phrase never used to bother me until I started listening to that podcast, and his stories where just about every single story has somebody’s blood running cold.

Quite unfortunate, because it is a very accurate descriptor for being scared. It’s not uncommon to feel that sensation of your blood running cold, but due to its overuse, I am trying to find an alternative phrase to use in my horror writing. Do you have any suggestions?
