When I was little, I used to think that when you flushed the toilet, you were allowing the dead spirits to come after you. (The pets flushed down the toilet.) Every time I flushed, I would run out. And one day I tripped and started crying and screaming. When my grandma came and asked what was wrong, I told her, "The spirits are after me!"
