When I was little I was terrified of monsters. I believed in not just one, but seven Boogiemen. I even thought that I could see them. They resembled large piles of goop. Each was a different color. They were all evil, except for one that was blue. The worst one was the red one. I also had a reason for sleeping with the covers over my head. It was because each of the Boogiemen had a portion of the body they would eat. If I was under the covers then that part of me would be safe.
