after seeing disneys fantasia i belived that a woman flew across the sky to birng the night-time. If she saw you with you eyes open when you were supposed to be asleep she would open a magic portal and suck you through to a place where it was allways night as a punishment. However if you had hold of you duvet it would plug up the portal giving you time to climb out i was very relived when my friend proved this theory wrong
