A childhood belief about under my bed

I used to believe in "skin monsters" that when i was in my bed i had to be compleatly covered by my blankets so the skin monsters couldn't get me. if my feet poked out or my hands showed, they would get me for sure. But because I never could keep my head under the covers my head was exempt from the rule. Although I never really imagined what would happen if they got me, still to this day when I turn out the light I need to run and dive into the bed and get under the covers as quickly as possible or I'm sure they are going to crawl out from under the bed and get me. All except for my head of course.
