As a child, I used to believe that if I wasn't completely covered all the way up to my neck with the blanket, little men in big russian hats with clevers would decend on me and chop up my body. And take them back to a big fat king who turned the body parts into gold. I have no idea where this idea came from, but it had me tightly under the covers for many years.
