at home

When I was pretty young I caught a part of one of the Jaws movies on tv. I guess I thought that sharks could live in water anywhere because I was afraid to use the bathroom or take a bath. It took me quite a while to get over that one.

when i was younger i thought that the air vents led directly to China, dont ask why its little kid logic. One night my mom told me that i should eat all of my vegetables because there are starving people in China who would like to eat them. Well i ran out to the air vent and shoved my broccoli into the air vent. my mom got mad and said that only the spiders would eat thebroccoli and that the vent didnt lead to China. This event happened several times, once with shreaded cheese ( i was feeding the spiders though)

my friend told me this story that like in your closet was a portal to a new world and like on the ground of my closet there were dead things and im 10 and still believe that

When I was little my sister was in amateur dramatics and my mum was often sewing theatrical dresses. I remember them kidding me that the sequins were actually fairy records and I spent ages looking for a tiny record player that these would fit onto.

When I was age 7 I used to jump up and look inside my neighbours top-loading washing machine until she told me that if I put my hand in there sharp blades would come from out and cut my hands off.

I was 17 before I could ever go near one.

When I was 3 or 4, my uncle was babysitting me, and apparently I made a mess by dumping water on my favorite slippers which i had outgrown.
he asked what i was doing, and i explained that I was watering them so they would grow.

I used to believe that monsters or aliens lived in my closet and it was my own job to protect my family and the world from being eaten by them by looking as unappitizing as i could at night. I thought that if they couldn't see me they would think i was invisible and not worth eating and go back home. I also thought that if i only stuck my head out they would think we were only heads and go home. I even thought if i left my toe out they would think we were only toes. I thought i was so important. If my parents were mad at me i would say, "You know if it wasn't for me you would be alien food!" and then they would stare. haha

You know those christmas ornaments that are houses and stuff? Well, when I was little, I used to think little people lived in them and if I looked hard enough in the windows, I could see them. I was dissapointed at the fact that they always hid from me though...

When I was little I wanted to do everything like my older sister. We had a bunkbed and she slept at the top (even though she weighed more than me but I was too young to understand this was unfair). One day I wanted to sleep at the top and my parents let me. I went up but I kept seeing "visions" of evil skeletons from beyond coming to get me. I was whimpering and trying to sleep real badly but finally I ran into my parents bedroom crying.

ok well when i was younger i used to think that they're were vampires in my closet...so every night in bed i thought that if i covered my neck with my blankets they couldn't get me

I used to think that whenever the toilet was flushed it was emptied into a closet in the basement (the pipes were in the wall behind the closet so it always sounded like the toilet flushed into the closet)

I was afraid to open the closet until I was 8 (although I always wondered how it was emptied)

i used to believe that if you were in the bathtub when you pulled out the drain it would suck you in. i guess i watched too much rugrats!

For years I wouldn't use the bathroom in a public place and someone had to be in the room when i took my bath (one of my older sisters sat on the toilet) and i left the door open when i would go to the bathroom..all because i was afraid Candyman would get me

when i was little i was scared of goingto sleep because there was a monster in my closet that would eat me when i went to sleep. i kept on hearing strange noises coming from my closet and one time when it was leaking, i was lying awake in my room at 12:00pm and because it was so dark the leaking looked red and there was this weird red puddle oozing out of my closet, i was terrifieyed

i used to belive that my cookie jar was haunted because one morning i woke up and it was upside-down on my bed and there was a trail of crumbs leading from it into the kitchen. i got in so much trouble from my mum, but i never did find out why that happend and i havent eaten a cookie since!

i had a bird model hanging in my room on the ceiling it would always ricket back and forth on the string so i though it did that because the earth turns .... i thought it watched me at night
