When I was really little, about 2-5 I didn't like taking baths because I thought I was going to go down the drain. If my mom pulled the drain I'd jump out quickly because I didn't want to get sucked in.

I used to think that with dry hair shampoo was used on dry hair (not wet) and was useful if you needed to wash your hair being miles away from a tap.

Helen

i used to believe that the gurgling sound when the bathtub is draining was the "Gurgle Monster" and that it would eat me if it came out of the drain.

Ellie

I used to believe as a kid that cockroaches used to come up out of the hole in the bath and if you didn't get out in time, they'd come up and run all over you.

Jay

I believed that if you stayed in the bathtub while the water was draining down, you would get sucked down the drain.

I used to think if I locked the door in the bathroom while using the toilet, something very terrible will happen and I will die without anyone knowing or helping because the door is locked. I didn't lock the bathroom door until I went to boarding school.

Annie Lo

I used to believe that if I didnt get out of the tub before all the water went down the drain that I would get sucked down the drain, too. My mother told me this, I guess, because she was in a hurry and wanted me to get out of the tub.

Gina

When I was young I used to try to drink the water in the bath tub and my mom told me it was made of smushed up flies. I have been waiting for a fly to come out of the faucet ever since... (I am 33)

Enomis

i used to believe that when the water goes down a sink & a little ring of silver appears in the plug hole (i now understand it's a reflection!!) that if you were quick enough you could grab it & collect them & be rich!! (i'm still poor!?)

Starting when I was six, I believed that if I didn't get to the sinks by the time the toilet was done flushing something really bad would happen to me(I dont' know what, just something). I also believed that if I left a book or magazine in front of the toilet a trapdoor would open and that my book or magazine would drop through. I don't know where this came from, but I believed it until I was 10.

Roxy

I used to believe that brown paper towels or toilet paper was "whole grain". I walked into a bathroom one day and said to nobody in particular (out loud, of course), "Wow! Whole-grain toilet paper! How fancy!"

After I saw Nightmare in Elm Street I used to think Freddy Krueger was hiding in our shower. Every time I went to the bathroom I had to check behind the shower curtain first.

Andy

you know when you run a tap and look into the plughole well I used to believe that little silver ring in the was a fish eye as i thought that fish could swim up the drainpipe!

alison

When I was in grade school I never wanted to use the school bathroom stall with an air vent above it. I thought the janitor hid up there and watched me while I peed

JewLea

I used to believe that under the bathtub drain were little green army men toys that made the sewers work, and I was afraid that one day they would jump out of the drain and talk to me.

Betty Sue

I used to believe that take a shower meant to go steal a shower from the store

Anon

I used to think that when the power goes out, the water also stops working.

Anon

i believed that when you finished taking a shower and you opened the shower curtain a velociraptor would be right there to eat you.

Anon

when I was very little I thought a monster lived down in the pipes under the toilet. Whenever I finished I had to get out of the bathroom as quickly as I could, because when I flushed all that pee or poop down onto his head he would come out and attack me.

Rosey

the first time i started showering since since i graduated fromt he bath which usually i usually share with my brother, i had to have my mother stand in the bathroom with me while i showered. i was absulutely terrified that gremlins were standing on each other's shoulders and peeking through the small hexagonal window in the corner of the stall
