When I was little I was petrified of vampires and used to sleep under the covers with my teddy bear wrapped around my neck to protect me from being bitten. I'd also take the top bunk as it was 'safer' from the monsters - they couldn't reach that high.
I blame my parents for making us sit throught the radio play of Bram Stoker's Dracula...
