I used to believe that if I farted enough, that the vampires and monsters in my closet wouldnt want to come out and eat me, because I was smelly.
I also thought if I was super messy, then they wouldnt want to eat me. Gee how cool was I? Dirty messy room, full of farts. Hey I never got eaten though!

My sister and I once played this trick on my brother. We weighed him on our scale, which was in our upstairs bathroom. Then we told him to go breath the air in the pantry downstairs. While he was down there, we turned this knob on the scale, which made it look like whoever stepped on it, weighed more. So my brother came up and weighed about 20 lbs. more. Then we got him to believe that if he breathed the air in the downstairs bathroom, then he would lose 20 lbs. and simply put the scale back to its normal setting. This went through several rounds before we told him.

Like most children, I believed that there was a monster under the bed. However, my monster was a bit more specific: he was called the "Toe Monster," because my daddy had told me that if if stuck my toes under the edge of the bed, the monster would eat them off. Pretty boring I guess, as far as monsters go.

I used to believe that, somewhere in my house, there was a trapdoor under a piece of furniture. The trapdoor would lead to many secret, unexplored rooms or a little underground river with a boat.

Between the ages of 6 and 13 I used to beleive that when the lights were switched off at night, all the nooks and crannies (little spaces) had lots and lots of pairs of evil looking eyes and I used to hide under the covers because I thought the eyes would get me. I also used to think that at the same time if i looked under my bed when it was dark that there was one hugh pair of eyes staring at me and waiting to grab me

When I was a child I used to belief that there was a monster under my bed. And till my 14. bitrhday I used to belief that when I didn't get asleep very fast, there would come a very bad guy in a black robe and strangle me and my family. And I remember after reading "Dracula" I heard for about a month strange voices outside the window - just like those of the vampires (that's what I believed)

We had an old stove in the living room which my mom never used. My sister and I would stuff it with paper. Sometimes the paper would disappear. Well, I then thought that there must be an invisible monkey living in the stove that ate paper. So we kept feeding the invisible monkey. Later I came to find out that it was my father who cleaned the stove and took the paper out. So much for the monkey!

When I was little I used to fall off my bed and when I woke in the middle of the night I would find myself on the floor. Since I couldn't find my pillow (which usually fell on the other side of the bed) I deduced that a ghost would push me to the floor and take my pillow to sleep on it somewhere else. Of course, later the theory shattered when once I found the pillow on the other side of the bed (I looked that time)!

When i was little i used to believe iif you pooped in a port-a-potty (portable restroom) a zombie mummy would come up and try to eat you!!! i still don't like port-a potties, i don't like'em at all...

The little nob on my bathtub that turns the plug on and off was located on a silver plate bolted into the wall. i thought it was a little man and that the bolts were his eyes, and the nob his nose. I used to talk to him all the time about my problems, and he was definitely one of my first crushes. I used to suck on his nose too, im not sure how that fits into it all...

It was halloween when I watched Michael Jackson's music video "Thriller". When I took a shower that night, I somewhat had a fear of zombies and Michael Jackson as a zombie so I ended up peeing in the shower. I stood on a stool in fear of zombies being in the shower or I stood on the side. For some reason, I have a full bladder when I take a shower.

i used to belive that there were monsters under my bed and if i farted to loud they would wake up and get really angry and eat me so i used to try to make my farts really silent, wierd....

I used to believe…

ever since i had watched goosebumps the one where the clown tries to kill the little boy i would rap my self up in my quilt like a cucoon so he couldn't take my quilt off me!

I use to watch my food being cooked in the microwave. Well when I was about 4, my dad told me that if I watched the microwave when it was cooking my food, I would get high. And up until I think last week I believed him until someone told me otherwise.

Up until the time I was about eight, every time I had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night I waited as long as I possibly could before summoning up the courage. Why? I had this firmly held belief that when I went to the bathroom, behind the shower curtian (always closed at night for some reason) there lived a horrible skeleton monstor that would eat me if I flushed the toilet too loudly. So I never flushed the toiled at night (and always blamed my sister the next morning when my mom asked who did it)


Also, there was a family of gnomes that would eat my toes if I didn't have them on the side of the tub while going to the bathroom. I still keep my feet up when I'm in that bathroom.....

when i was small i thought that vampires lived in my closet and that when u went to sleep they'd come out to bite u and turn u into a vampire.. so i always covered my neck ( still do haha ) with a sheet cuz i thought they couldnt bite through the sheet

When I was little my room was pitch black at night and i would leave the hall light on. My stupid older brother would turn it off and get down on all fours and since i couldnt see cause it was pitch black i couldn't see where he was so then he would grab my leg and i would scream like heck cause i thought is was the monster under my bed (there was a monster under my bed i checked and it wasn't just a sweater :) ) i still hate my brother for all the times he did that and i fell for it.

when i was little i was sure that there was a monster with really long hands and claw so when i got in to bed i would run and jump off and when i got off i got off as quickly as i could and ran like heck!

When I was little, I used to believe that burglars and classmate were outside my bathroom window staring at me when I took a shower or went to the bathroom and i always got scared so I tried to cover up myself as much as possible!

I used to believe when I was little that when you went to bed at night, guys from the mafia were under your bed and would shoot your legs if you got up. I would wait till the morning to go to the bathroom...
