I remember being about 5 or 6 years old when my dad told me that nighttime shadows were holes, so I had to stay out of the shadows or I would fall into the holes. Even into my teenage years, in spite of my knowledge to the contrary, I was still apprehensive about those shadows, which I guess was my dad's goal all along!!!!
