I used to believe that when you sit down in a porty potty there would be snakes that come and bite your butt. Now, when I use one (Rarely) I believe that someone will come and push it down. (Ever since I watched viva la bam and they pulled that stunt.)

I wouldn't flush the chain until I was about seven and this would really annoy my parents. But I couldn't tell them it was because the sound of the flush was the sign for the monsters who lived behind the water tank on the landing that I was alone upstairs and they could come out and grab me and I would have to live in the world that existed behind the airing cupboard.

I used to believe that when you sat on the toilet, there would be a knife that stabbed your butt if you put to much toiletpaper in it, and if they didn't have a knife, they'd use a shark to bite you, and if they didn't have that, they'd get a clown and it would grab you down the toilet.

I remember once when someone flushed the toilet and it overflowed. From then on, I had a fear of flushing toilets, so everyone would yell at me for not flushing the toilet and would make fun of me when I told them why. I flush the toilet now, but whenever someone forgets to, everyone blames me.....

When I was young, I used to run out of the bathroom whenever I flushed the toilet. But I was only scared of the school toilets. I always ran out of the bathroom whenever I flushed. But once when I was running out of the bathroom, I ran into an older girl. She asked me if I was running from the vampire that lived in the toilet, and I screamed no and sprinted back to my classroom. After that I was afraid that an evil vampire lived in the school toilets. But I didnt want to have to run out of the bathrooms again, so I never went to the bathroom in school ever again. But I wouold have to run home from the bus stop because I had to go so badly. To this day, if I am in a school, I dont go to the bathroom in there.

i was completely afraid of the toilet after watching an episode of the X-files when i was about 7 or 8. i was almost certain that a fish-man would hear me going to the bathroom and come up through the pipes to eat my butt.

I used to believe that everytime I would use the toilet, a snake would come up and bite me on the butt.

I used to belive that when i peed at night, a giant spider would jump in through the window and kill me.

i used to think that a hand with red manicured fingernails would grab me from under when i used the toilet. needless to say, i could never sit on a toilet for an extended period of time.

When i was 3, i thought that the toilet was a whirlpool and if i flushed while i was on it, i'd godown and get eaten by the 'poo monster'!

When i was younger i used to think that vampires lived down the toilet and if you stayed on too long they'd pull you down the loo or bite your bum!

I used to believe that when you flushed the toilet a monster popped out to come and eat you. I flushed and ran out as quickly as possible.

I used to belive that there was a momster in the toilet and when i flushed he would wake up and chase me. so I would flush and RUN.

Shane

I used to belive that there was a monster in the toilet and when I flushed he would wake up and attack, so I would flush and run. And the louder the worse it would be for me.

Not anymore.

My grandmother used to tell me that if i wouldn't behave,she would flush me down the comode to deal with the potty monster.

When i was like, 5, i thought that toilets (and bathtubs) would suck you up if you flushed them and stood too close. so when i went in public bathrooms, i would get done, unlock and open the door, flush and run out quickly

i used to think that the toliet and the bath tub could suck you in if you were not careful, and that if you did get sucked in it would be like a big waterslide.
