A childhood belief about criminals

well it all started one day when my family went to Applebee's to eat .. and as most kids do i got a balloon when i was done eating. -later on that night- i had bunkbeds and i was getting ready for bed..i slept on the bottem(no one slept on top)so i went to bed .. i rarely wake up in the iddle of the night but that night i did and i was gonna get out of bed for something and as i was going to the edge of my bed i looked up and i was this big dark figure thing on the top bunk i was so scared i thought some crazy murder monster guy was on my top bunk and was going to kill me. so i screemed for my life i really though i was going to die. then in came my dad and turned on the light .. i found out the the crazy murder monster guy that was going to kill my was just the balloon i had gotten earler .. needless to say i got a new bed to i didn't have to think someone was one the top of it and going to kill me
