When I was little(around 5),I was supposed to close the bathroom door after I came out of the bathroom so my dog wouldn't drink out of the toilet or anything. But I thought the door had to be closed so that the monster that sucks up the stuff in the toilet wouldn't suck me up too, and when I heard the flushing noise, I thought it was growling at me.
