When my son was about 5 he thought that the light-shade in his bedroon became a laser gun at night and would shoot him if he got out of bed. His favourite cuddly toy was a dog with long ears, and he would go to sleep with one of the dog's ears draped over his eyes so that the light couldn't tell if he was awake.
