when i was little we had a vent in our kitchen floor when i asked my dad what it was he said it was a heat duct (i heard duck) and that heat duck monsters lived down there and would pull me down if i got to close. for the longest time i wouldnt even go near there..
A childhood belief about around the house
others believed things like this
- i thought that "aromatic" duck was actually "asthmatic" duck.
poor thing...— rachael - I always thought that duck sauce (from chinese restaurants) was duck poop.
— emily - I used to believe that the heat from the furnace came from hell, and that it was a straight drop there.Anon
- I used to think what heated the food in the pan was the boiling water, not the heat under it.— Mario
- Whenever I was upstairs on a bus, I didn't believe that it would fit under the bridge so I used to duck. — Dave, Lancashire
- I used to belive that if I didn't duck when going under bridges they would hit me.Anon
