When I was about 4 or 5, I thought that little trolls lived inside my pillow. I even imagined that I could here them marching around in there (the marching noise I heard turned out to be the beating of my heart in my ear). I imagined them making intricate tunnels among the cotton, and carrying shovels over there shoulders. I knew they couldn't get me unless I put my hands under the pillow. Then they would bite the skin off my hand and I would wake up with two skeleton hands lying under the pillow.
