Bouncing on my bed and watching houses through the window I was sure they were literally bouncing with me.

I thought neighbours from the upper floor were holding our lamps all the time and that's why they were hanging from the ceiling and not falling down.

When I was little I thought that every electronic and mechanical device had a secret explosive switch where if you turned the nob on the TV just so or jiggled the handle on the faucet to much to the right "BOOM". Needless to say I refused to run my own bath until I was 11 and I ended up playing outside a lot.

I used to belive that if you stood next to a microwave while it was running that you would shink and I was so anxious to be tall that I would never go near it. Just out of habbit, I still feel weird near them.

My brother told me when i was probably around 4 or 5 that if i touched the door stopper (the thing on the side of the wall so the door doesn't hit the wall; usually see them at doctors offices) the door would swing open and hit me. I finally got the courage when i was 11 to push it and run away.

When my daughter was little she was afraid to go near the back door. We finally discovered it was because she was afraid the stopper wouldn't work and the 'giraffes' would get her. It was an old draughty house and we had a draught stopper in the doorway!

When I was very little, my sister told me that there were crocodiles under the deck next to our garage just to scare me. I believed her and decided to peek under the deck. The people who lived in the house before we did had a dog. There was a dog toy under the deck, so I thought that the dog got eaten by the crocodiles. I was scared half to death and quickly ran to the other side of the house in hiding.

When I was about 6 or 7 my aunty and uncle had a walk-in wardrobe. Whenever i heard them say it I thought they were talking about a 'walking' wardrobe and that it followed them around trying to catch them and get them to put more clothes on. i was always perplexed as to why I never saw it move.

When I woke up in the middle of the night with the moon light coming through my curtains I thought there was always a bear in my room. I was so scared to look at it so I would close my eyes tight and try to go to sleep. But it was only my long hair covering my face that looked like a bear.

Growing up in an old house, my father was frequently doing some kind of work around the house. When he needed wood, he went outside and flagged down a truck that was hauling wood and buy it from the driver. At least, that what I thought was going on. Little did I know that our house was hard for the driver to find and my father had to get his attention after he had driver by the umpteenth time!

My great-aunt and uncle used to live near a municipal airport. The beacon light was right next to their property line, so I thought there was an on-off switch for that light somewhere in their house. I thought it was my great-aunt's responsibility to turn that beacon light on at night.
