My elementary school had these freaky-looking toilet paper holders...with the screws in it, it looked like a one eyed monster with toilet paper in its mouth. If the toilet paper got low, You could see the "eyes" (2 screws that held the "monster" to the wall) of the toilet paper monster's victims. I thought that it would eat me if I stayed in the bathroom too long, so I'd get my buisness done as fast as I could. I also stuffed some toilet paper in its mouth so that I couldn't see the "eyes".

When I was young I beleived in vampires and I thought if someone accidently turned off the light while I was in the washroom a vampire would sneak into the toilet, bite my bum, and turn me into a vampire.

I always wondered where all he poop and pee went to.... I thought there a monster on the other ide that kept eating it, and I was afraid it might stick its hand down the pipe and pull me in the toilet!

When i was a child i saw a cover of a goosebumps book that had some creature coming out of the toilet. For almost a year after that, i would NOT sit on the toilet and i would look at the toilet while peeing.

When I was little I used to think that there were spiders and snakes in the drains of the toilet.So I would quickly go to the toilet wash my hands and sprint before they would run after me.Now I think it's stupid.

I used to believe that if I was chewing gum while using the toilet, it would be magically sucked out of my mouth, down my throat, through my body, and into the toilet. Nothing too scary, but I would ALWAYS spit out my gum before using the toilet, until one day I didn't and nothing happened.

i used to think a monster would come out of the toilet and grab me when i flushed, so i would push down the handle really quick and run away.

When I was little, I used to think that when you flushed the toilet then if you didn't run away as fast as you possibly could and if you didn't close the door you would be eaten by a giant monster that lived in the toilet.

When I was little, I used to think Dr. Evil would come and bite my butt. When I got done, i would run out of there at lightning speed. When I was a little older, I thought the Bloody Mary would pop out of the mirror, and and attack me , and in her hand was a ciggarette. I was Strange.

Strange and Scared of toilets

Im Slightly Obsessive compulsive and one night when i went to the toilet and flushed the chain i thought that the ghosts from Pac-Man would come out from every room and attack me. Man did i run fast down those stairs.

I went to the restroom after watching a show about the holocaust, and I was terrified because I thought Hilter's dead hand would reach up and grab me and pull me down into the bowl...

When I was about 3 or 4, my sisters made me believe in a 'toilet monster'. I thought that whenever I flushed the toilet, it would come out and eat me.

Mike 'I don't believe anymore' D.

I always believed that the toilet flush was a sign for the creatures to come out and get me, so when i flushed the toilet i had to run like mad to my bedroom and hide until all sound had vanished from the flush then i could go to sleep.

I used to think there was as such thing as "The Toilet Man". so everytime I went to the bathroom I felt scared. How stupid I felt when I found out that there was no such thing!

Melanie

i used to belive every time i flushed the chain in the toilet a monster would come flying out .

Jess

When I was younger, I used to think that when I was going to the bathroom, a fish would leap out of the toilet and bite me on the bum!

Erri

I used to think that there would be a snake in the toilet everytime I lifted up the seat. I still feel this way sometimes at age 25. I have no idea where it comes from!

Teala

i used to believe that all of my poop that went down the toilet had formed a huge colony and would save all of my pee in a well...and they would drink it. and i would get scared if i just pooped and i didnt pee that the poop colony would come out of the toilet and eat ME. i was terrified about that until i was 13 until my dear friend emily told me the truth!
