when I was younger about 6 after seeing a movie about a man who lived in this families attic (I think it was A Man In The Attic or something like that)he was sort of evil he killed thier dog after the dog sniffed him out... I thought there was a man in our attic and late at night I would talk to him. I would let him know that I knew he was there and he could live there we didn't care...I would tell him this so he would not kill my family. as it turns out this belief was ill founded as we lived in an apartment in wisconsin and had no attic...I didn't really realize what an attic was I thought everyone had one. But I beleived for many years he was up there and would talk to him and let him know we were friendly and would never kick him out he could live there as long as he wanted and if we found him he was safe living in our attic.
