When I was younger I was told a story at camp about if you leave any of your body parts other then your head out of under the covers that they would be cut off, and I am so used to it now I cant sleep unless my body parts are under the covers
A childhood belief about under my bed

others believed things like this
- I used to believe lepers came from Ireland. Like leprechauns, only with less body parts.Anon
- I used to think that bodily tissues were kleenex sheets that grew in certain parts of your body.Anon
- I used to believe that a funeral organist was the person who collected the body parts of the deadAnon
- I always had to sleep with my feet under the covers or else speed racer would drive over them.Anon
- I used to think that "extra body" shampoo meant you could use the runoff suds to clean your body.— Christy
- I was told as a child to eat the dark parts of a banana, because it was really brown sugar.Anon
