monsters

You know how your carpet sometimes has bumps in it. Well when I was little I thought it was the devils head and he was trying to get in your house. So I would always go out of my way to walk around them. I was afraid if I got near them he would jump up and grab me.

When I was younger, I had a nightmare about being attacked by monsters who could only be warded off by playing The Beatles. I took this dream to be an omen of sorts, and started playing The Beatles on my boombox every night to ward off the monsters. My parents weren't exactly happy about hearing Revolution #9 in the dead of night.

I used to believe that when I was in my bed, there was a boogeyman under my bed. I thought that if I pulled the covers over my head and no feet/arms/body parts were sticking out from under the sheets, nothing could attack me. I did this all throughout summer and winter, and suffered a lot because I couldn't breathe.

When I was little I used to think the boogie man was made out of snaot and he lived in my nose!

I used to believe that when it was dark monsters would come out of their hiding places because they liked the dark because it made them strong where as the light made them not strong, which is why I was terrified of the dark, I used to arm myself with a toy sword.

I used to believe that monsters could not "get" you if you sang. Must have been true since I always sang (in whispers) and I was never once attacked by a monster.

My sister and I used to believe that we were one day going to randomly turn into cartoon characters of some sort. Once, we honestly thought we were turning into Koopalings (like in Super Mario World) because we became so obsessed with them. The fact that we have natrually dry, scaly-looking skin and fast-growing fingernails didn't exactly help...

I live in Boston, Massachussettes if you have ever been there, you know there are bridges with views of the city. At night this can look quite eerie and mystical, especially if you are a kid.

When I was young, I believed a dragon would some day appear over the dark roof tops and set the city on fire. Oddly enough, it never frightened me..just gave me this delicious shivery feeling. To this day I love looking at that sky line at night.

After i watched the movie BFG [big friendly giant] i thuoght that the BFG would really come in the night, But i was afraid of him so i would sleep or pretend when it got late

When I was a little kid me and my sister(she was only three years older than me) thought that pokemon was real. We had this hole in our backyard and we thought that it would lead us to the Pokemon world. So we spent a lot of time digging by hand. Of course when we moved we couldn't dig anymore and we eventually stopped believing it.

I used to believe that as long as I slept with the blankets pulled up completely over me, I would be safe from monsters. I don't know HOW I survived the lack of oxygen.

When I was little I used to think [like most kids] there were monsters under beds. Because of this whenever I went to bed or my parents room I would get all my stuffed animals and set them around the bottom of the bed as some sort of barrier against monsters.

I believe that there is a monster in the air vent and watches me when I put on my clothes

My dad started letting me watch MTV cartoons like The Max, when I was really little. One time I asked him if the little black, alien dudes with viscous teeth were real. He told me yes, and that they terrorize little kids at night if their out after dark. Ever since that day, when I hear loud music at night, I imagine them crammed into the cars, biting the heads of chickens and freaking people out like on the cartoon.
