When I had to use the bathroom at my grandparents house when I was younger I had to bring an offering. You see in the light fixture there was a lot of dead flys and moths. I beleived they were the guardians of the bathroom. If I didn't bring something they would catch me and make me live in the ligt fixture forever!
