I used to believe when i was young that there where monsters in the toilet. I would never have went to the bathroom alone, only if someone waited with me until i had finished the business. This caused problems at night time, i was so afraid to go to the bathroom on my own, never mind going in the dark. I sorted this out by using my room as my personal bathroom, so much to my parents digust.

I used to believe that if you used the toilet during a storm, lightning was sure to come through the pipes and electrocute you through your rear.

When I was small and just starting to use a proper toilet, I had a terrible fear of falling down it in case I got flushed away!

when I was young, I used to believe that If I go to the toilet, ghost appear at the night.
my friends tell me that the ghost ask me"which do you want red or white paper?" so I cant go to the toilet every night.

I wasn't completly pottey trained 'till I was 3 1/2. I was fine with peeing, but pooping hurt, and u were on the toilet so long I was afraid a bee would sting my butt. Because of this I was afraid to poop and so when I was 3 me and my family were at a restraunt and I stood up growning. My mother asked if I had to go to the bathroom and I said, "no I just gota say Wooooooff!"

I am in absolute shock that I'm not the only one who beleived a Vampire lived in the toilet! I have absolutely no idea where this beleif came from, but I used to run as fast as I could after I flushed because I thought the Vampire would wake up and get me!

In first grade I would always be afraid to flush the toilet because I thought that was how robbers got in to your house because one time my friend had said someone broke into her house after she'd used the bathroom.

In kindergarten I was afraid to go wtith the door shut because I thought I would be locked in and sucked down the toilet to the world of Poo.

When I was very little I watched an episode of those funny video shows where they pulled a snake out of a toilet... this combined with my belief that all of the plumbing in the house and city and world was connected led me to believe that at any time, most likely when you're sitting on it, a snake or alligator of some sort could come up out of the toilet and bite your butt. And to think I made fun of my brother for thinking he'd get sucked down the drain in the tub.

I used 2 believe that every time i went to my grandads house if I used the toilet there was evil monkeys that followed me upstairs through the water pipes and if i flushed the toilet they would jump up and bite my bum!
IF my mum realise i hadnt flushed it she used to shut at me, so i flushed it and ran down stairs so fast!

monkey bum

i thought that if u flushed down a dead fish it would come back and be a toilet ghost so when i lost mr.rainbow (a beta) i was scared to use the toilet

I used to believe that, when I went to the bathroom, once I flushed, a monster would come in to being. So, for at least two years, every time I went to the bathroom, I'd flush and sprint out of the bathroom and down any halls I had to until I reached my destination. If I was in my house, I'd flush and run as fast as a could to my room and jump into my bed, where I was safe.

Because the toilet made an horrific noise, and partly due to Look Who's Talking Too, i thought that if I stayed in the toilet when I flushed it, I would be eaten alive, so I washed my hands then pulled the chain and ran!

I was 12 when we used a Ferry to cross Lake Champlain. I had to use the bathroom, but was scared that a fish was going to come up and bite my fanny!

I used to believe that if I flushed the toilet and didn't get out of the bathroom until after the toilet stopped, a devil would come out of it and get me! I thought devils lived in there and that they'd come out if I flushed it. Don't ask me how I thought that, I stil don't know!

Erin

a couple of years ago i had a strange imagination.
I used to think that when i flush my toilet 3 times in a row, some evil toilet demon would come out and dominate my bathroom xD

I USE TO BELIVE THAT IF U WERE SITTING ON THE TOILET AND YOU FLUSHED THAT U WOULD GO DOWN THE TOILET AND TURN INTO A LITTLE FISH AND SOMEONE WOULD GO FISHING AND THAEY WOULD CATCH YOU AND EAT UYOU FOR DINNER.
