A childhood belief about vampires

When I was around 6, I used to believe vampires were real. One morning my mom came out of her bedroom and showed my dad a big mark on her neck. I saw it and thought that Dracula had tried to get her, but did not succeed. I started to sleep with the covers right under my nose so the vampires couldn't get to my neck. I guess I thought vampires couldn't move sheets, either. Anyway, it wasn't until years later that I realized my mom had a hickey, courtesy of my dad.
