I used to have a terrible fear of Bigfoot. I was convinced that he was 'just around the corner,' waiting for the perfect time to grab me. It was especially horrible on very windy days. The wind would whip around the house, howling very loudly and I just knew that it was Bigfoot letting me know that my time was up!
Once, while visiting someone's house, I hid in a closet. This house had huge, screened windows and I just knew that it would be so much easier for Bigfoot to reach in and take me away through those things...
...but I'm all better now. I think.
