OT: Is "spook" now an unusable word?

Keep it in my pants when I do OTC. If I were a stripper it would stand for I like big bucks and I can not lie.

I was with this Black dancer, when somebody came up behind her and startled her. A couple minutes later, she was still rattled, so I said "wow, he really spooked you". Which caused her to give me a kinda surprised/dirty look.
Can you no longer use spook to mean creeped out? Like you can't use gay to mean joyful anymore?
Even as a rude word for a Black person, I thought spook was in the mild category like mick, kraut, limey, kike, diego, etc. Like if you're Irish friend did something dumb, you could say "you stupid mick" and he would just laugh and talk shit back to you.
Got something to say?
