I used to believe that when i flushed i had to be out of the bathroom.. if i wasnt then the toilet would swallow me whole. I used to believe from the age I was about 6 to 11 years old. Yet today it still crosses my mind everytime i flush the toilet...

I used to believe that there were aliens in the laundry that would come and get me when I flushed the toilet.

I used to believe that rats would come out of the toilet when it was flushed late at night so i would run back to my bedroom quickly and rush getting back into bed.

I had to be back in bed before the toilet finished flushing, or a hand would come out, grab me and pull me down.

Before flushing the toilet when i was a kid, i used to open the door and get ready to run as soon as i had flushed it. For some reason i thought a gorilla was going to come out of the toilet, roaring at me. As i got older, i realised it wouldnt be able to get out of such a small space.

I used to believe that the toilets with the black seats would attack me when i sat down, but that the white ones were nice.

I used to believe that when you flushed the toilet, you had to be out of the bathroom and have the door closed before the toilet was done flushing. If you didn't do this, a ghost would come out of the bathroom mirror and suck you in so it could eat you. This was retarded, but I believed it for some reason. Everytime I flushed, I jumped for my life out the door and ran like hell down the stairs(in case the door didn't close all the way) and washed my hands in the kitchen.

that dracula lived in the sewer and at any moment he might rise up and bite my butt.

As a child I believed that there was a witch who lived in the toilet bowl, and if I sat on it she would poke me in the butt with a needle. It can be terrible to be so gullible and the youngest of four children.

I used to belive that there was a alligator in the toilet and when i went to the bathroom once i went #1 and went so fast and flushed and ran out of the bathroom.But know i know that there nothing there.

I used to believe that if I stayed in the room with the toilet in it (most houses in Australia have their own room for the toilet) while it was flushing and I was in there when it finished I would go down the drain.

I used to be afraid of standing too near the toilet when I flushed it. I thought it could suck me down with the water.

When I was young, I was afraid that a snake would come up the toilet drain while I was using the toilet and bite me in a very tendor place.

Once I had a dream that one of my preschool classmates had a horrible accident and had her head fixed onto a turkey's body. Then she would go in people's toilets and eat them up.
I was so afraid of #2 for about 12 years of my life...

i used to believe that there was a monster in the toilet. scary!

sienna

I used to think that some kind of monster lived in the toilet and when you flushed, the monster would come out and consume you. I would just flush and run.

Confusum

Anon

I used to think that whenever I flushed the toilet it turned evil or released a monter or something.
after I'd used the toilet, I'd go unlock the door and open it so I could get out quickly and then I'd stand as far away from the toilet as I could while I quickly flushed it. Then I'd run from the bathroom as fast I could. I carried on with this routine until I was about 10.
