i used to think that if you closed your eyes in the shower, then little centipedes would come out of the shower head!
i could never have my feet dangling over the edge of the bed, because a little man would wait and see if my toes slipped over. if they had, he would run by with a knife to chop them off.
When my mother hung the wash out to dry I would lay under them and try to catch all the dripping water because I thought that it was parts of my clothes falling.
One night I couldn't sleep and I was playing in bed. My mom came in and yelled because it was 1:00am. She said if I wasn't asleep by 1:20 the pirhanas could come out from my closet and bite off my toes. I was so scared. I made sure I was never awake at 1:20 again!
I used to believe that the devil lived in my heater because the coils inside would turn red when the heat was going. It scared me to death because it was right by my bed.

When I was 3 or 4, I believed that Kermit the Frog was waiting at the foot of my bed with an axe, and would chop off my toes if I let them hang over the edge.
at one point in my life,i thought that as mirrors reflect light,if you held two together, then there would be too much light and it would blow up.i figured out the truth when i was 7.hey, i was stupid!
In Grade School, we had old mirrors that slightly doubled the image. When washing my hands, I checked myself in the mirror. I noticed a 'ghostly' double image, and because I was really sick, I thought I was dying, and that was my ghost. I had a panic attack and passed out, only to have laied there for 10 minutes until a student and thier mother found me. They claimed I looked dead and ran for help. I had gone to the hospital, and when I returned, the student was shocked to see me 'alive'. I had thought I was a zombie for years, because when I checked the mirror last, the double image had disapeered! [They had gotten new mirrors when I left]
When I was about 5 my older brother who was 8 at the time would tell me that little gnomes lived under my bed. So every night I would try to talk to them. I would say "Hello" and then I would hear a little voice saying "Hello" back. It wasn't until I was about 6 when I found out that it wasn't any Gnomes it was my brother under my bed pretending to be them!
When i was a kid, my Dad would tell me that the monster under the bed was going to get me if I was bad.
My Mom said if I left out some cookies by the bed, it would leave me alone. Well my Dad would come in at night and eat the cookies. That would only scare me more. I asked him why the monster would eat the cookies. His answer would always be... well if you were bad that day, you were lucky to leave out the cookies so the monster would'nt get you.
Thanks mom and dad for driving me to zanex.
I use to believe that perana could swim up the drain of the bath tub and eat you! Or at least that is what my sister told me when I was six, right after we watched the movie "Perana". I didn't take a bath for a year(I was stuck taking showers with a plate over the drain)!
I used to believe…

I used to think that if you went too near, you would get sucked down the plughole in the bath and come out of the tap somewhere else. Whenever the bath was draining I stayed well back!
When I was little, I was playing around with my mom's phone. She told me that if I pressed a certain button (don't remeber which one), the house would explode. I thought I had pressed the button, so I ran out of the house screaming and crying. I climbed up a tree, because I thought a tree couldn't catch fire.
I used to believe that inside a toaster there was little men cooking your toast, and when the toast pops up, it was the little men getting too hot and jumping up and pushing the toast out of the way
when i was about 5 or 6 my mom used to tell me and my tiwn sister that there were men in the walls. and if i didnt behave they whould come out and take me in the back to clean the dishes.
