I used to belive that when an animal or a person passed away that they turned into a cloud in the sky and floated away to heaven.
When my Nana died I asked my Mum where does she go when she is dead. My Mum advised that she turns to "dust". It was my job at the time to do the dusting and I refused to do it as I didn't want to "dust" my Nana off the furniture etc.
I used to believe that if you walked through a graveyard at night then you would be friends with all the dead people because you gave up your sleeping time to come and say hello to them! There was an old wrecked graveyard just up the road from my old house and because the gates were broken I used to leave my house at night to go and be nice to the dead people. Then I used to tell everybody that I was friends with dead people!

I used to believe that convicts who had done really serious crimes, and have had death sentences were forced to play part in a theatre or film production where they would be killed on set (aka, actors who die). This was inspired when I went to watch a play in the threater where someone was "hung" on stage. I now know, they were wearing a harness.
when i was little my mom told me that the oil spots in the road were really children that didnt look both ways before crossing the street. it worked for a while.

When I was in Kindergarten we were practicing a fire drill on the school bus. They put my whole class on the bus and shut all the doors. I thought they were really going to set the bus on fire and I freaked out because there was no adults on the bus to open the back door. I remember standing there in line screaming "Who's going to open the door!?" (I didn't know they could open it from the outside) I really thought if I we didn't all hurry and make it off the bus we would die. I ran off the bus and my teacher had to calm me down and assured me nothing bad was going to happen. So I got back on the bus after everyone else was done and went out the back and everyone clapped. I remember feeling so relieved that I wasn't going to have to fight for my life that day and I little silly realizing that it was so easy just to jump out the back.
