I used to believe that bad people lived in my basement. There was a tiny hole in the wall by the stairs where I thought they could see me so I used to jump over the hole to run up the stairs. I still think about it...

When I was a kid, I did not sleep with your feet out of bed, because a monster would grab my feet.
I used to believe that my toilet used to contain rats and snakes. I used to be so terrified, I would take a picture of the toilet without looking at it, than looking at the picture to make sure there were no snakes or rats. But now, I like to pretend I'm peeing on the snake or pooping on a rat... but as i did so in my dream, it bit me, and i didnt pee or poop for a week. But now I'm good and I don't have the fear anymore :D

Chucky lived... Well everywhere. I still have nightmares...urggh I'm scared
When I was young, I used to believe that my life was a show on television. When I go to sleep I used to think that the show would put an ending theme (like who is the actor's real name and the producer etc.) I tried explaining to my mother that we are all in the show and someone is watching us so she would get really frustrated after a lot of explanations.
When I was small I slept in a tiny room next to the attic. The only thing between me and the attic was a poorly fitting door and a curtain covering my closet. During the summer my father would open the windows in the attic and, as a result, the wind would blow the curtain out into my room. I was sure it was a ghost and was terrified. When my father explained it all to me, I still wasn't sure, so I begged him not to open the attic windows anymore.

One time when I was 5 or 6 years old I started playing with the water in the bathtub. I just started moving my body back and forth in the tub making these big splashes. The next day alot of people at school were talking about an earthquake that had happened the day before. I thought I was the one who caused it and I even told all my friends that I did
I used to believe that when you were watching TV and someone said "don't change that channel" or "don't touch that dial" and you did, someone would appear on the screen and start yelling at you for changing it.
