When I was a little girl, my parents always had my bed in the corner of the room. When I would go to sleep, sometimes I would be worried about "boogie-men" of sorts. I would be afraid to put my back to the door, incase they came in through there, they could sneek up on me that way. But I didn't want to lay faceing the door either, because they could come up in between my bed and the wall behind me. So I would pile all my stuffed animals around me and one "pillow bug" with legs on my head, with it's legs placed over my face so that I could still see out. I got over it sooner or later.
