One night, I heard an ambulance accompanied by a loud, awful moaning sound. I thought it was from the spirit of the dying person being carried away in the ambulance. I turned out to be the neighbour's dog.

my mum was discussing with my aunt doner cards in america, saying how it was a good idea the doctors could take all yr organs out to save other people, failing to mention it was only if u died. i thought everyone at some point would have to go to hospital and give them all there organs. i was terrified that americans were going to bring these cards over here and whenever i saw something made in america, i would be scared shitless the carda where next.

I used to believe that when you died, your tongue would automatically stick out. Whenever I played dead, I would stick my tongue out. When I was 9, my brother told me I stupid after I "died" during a game of "cops and robbers."

When I was around 9 my neighbor, sister and I sat down to play on the Uijji Board. We all closed our eyes and did the whole ritual. We supposedly met a man named "Fernando" who died in a freak balooning accident. I got really scared and asked all these serious questions like, "Do you think we should ask him if we could bring him back?! but he might make us kill someone!." I was really terrified, I tried talking to Fernando all the time after that. I now know it was nothing more than an immature prank. *sigh*

I used to believe that everyone died when they turned 40.

I used to believe that if you stepped on someone's grave they would get very mad at you and wouldn't forgive me. So when we would visit my Dad's grave I would tiptoe around everyone else so that they wouldn't get mad and be mean to my dad. To this day I still apologize to the dead when i walk around graves.

— Beth from Michigan

When I was little I used to believe that a suicide was when someone died by falling into a sewer. For a long time I remember looking through the holes in the mancovers to make sure there were no dead bodies.

When I was at school one day, in science class my friend dared me to eat an eraser, so I did. Then after that, everyone told me I was going to die and I believed that for 5 years!

— Maeve

I used to believe that in movies, when people died...they really died. i thought that they would get paid a large amount of money, and then say, 5 years later they would do the movie and die.

When I was little, one time I was pulling the hairs on my brother's legs. He made me promise to stop, cross my heart and hope to die. So I did. Then I did it again. He said that since I crossed my heart and hoped to die and thenbroke the promise, I would die in my sleep that night!

I was so frightened that I would not go to bed that night. I cried so much and got so upset that my mother called the doctor. He said nothing was wrong with me.

Imagine my great relief when I woke up the next morning, and discovered that I was still alive!
