my mom and dad had friends that lived down the street from us. they had a son who was about my age (3-5 at the time)and they would often come over to visit in the evening. around 8 or 9 pm they would put us to bed in my full size bed to sleep while they stayed to play cards. one night he told me that there were wolves underneath my bed and that if i let my feet or arms dangle they would bite me. to this day i cant let any of my body parts hang off the side of my bed.
