I belived all through my childhood (up to 15) years that monsters could only eat me if I was awake,they hid under my bed and anytime they thought I moved they would come up to see if I was awake. This led to many wet beds as I woke up when I had to pee, but I was to scared that if I moved the monsters would come.
