A childhood belief about under my bed

When I was a little girl, our bedrooms on the second floor, my sister who is 7 years older than me told me that there was a gremlin living under her bed. I think she was trying to keep me out of her room. Anyway I stopped believing that after a while and she went off to college. I then took over her room so I didn't have to share a room. No problem, no monsters. Until one day I looked out the window into the darkness and saw an animal staring in at me. ON THE SECOND FLOOR! I was so scared I covered myself from head to toe and refused to look out unless it was actually true. Only the next day did I remember that a part of the roof is right below my new bedroom window, so it was rational that a cat could try to get back into our house from the 2nd floor.
