my belief (and still is) when i was little was that at night all the ghost in my house were active so i always had to have a night lite or something to listen to because i always see dark figures of a woman and a man run around my house and that creeps me out. The side i lay my head on is a wall and the other side of that wall is a room no one hardly ever goes in. Its cold and its creepy. One night me and my friends were playing truth or dare ( in my room) and we heard a boom like someone was knocking on the wall and we all stopped talking. One of my friends jumped all the way across the bed towards me. we all freked out and then it stopped. later that night was asleep and i woke up to a boom again i freaked out and stayed up the rest of that night.

Me and my guardians believe that faeries mingle in with the summer crickets in the woods in my yard, and if you listen to the crickets (and the faeries) carefully you will hear them telling us humans about their summer revels. In the winter they take their revels underground.

A few weeks ago me and my guardian and a couple of my friends found a faerie house in the woods...green and mossy. Last year me and my guardians found another faerie house in a now-felled part of the woods. Also that year we found a very large, lakelike puddle in also a now-felled part of the woods. We called it the Lake Of Peace and believed that the faeries leave it for their human neighbors in times of joy and peace.

We're always very respectful during our treks through the woods, because me and two of my guardians swear that the faeries spirited us away (we got lost) because we forgot to bow our heads at their monumental rock. We learned to treat the faeries and their territory with utmost respect then.

We also believe that the faeries have entrusted us to be their human rulers since (we're pretty sure, anyway) we're the only ones who know they're there.

Isn't the world magical? ^_^

I used to believe that Santa Clause would give me and my sister more presents if he thought that we loved each other. Every Christmas Eve, we would sleep in the same bed and make sure that we put our arms around each other so he would see how affectionate we were and give us more presents.

When I was like, four or something, I saw this magician who, I COULD SWEAR, made a paper airplane and it morphed into a dove WHILE IT WAS FLYING! This was NOT ON TV!!! THIS WAS LIVE IN FRONT OF A WHOLE BUNCH OF THREE-TO-FIVE-YEAR-OLDS! How he did this, I don't know. Has anyone else seen this?

I used to believe that the effect from squinting at street lights on the highway at night was a magic power only I had...

I used to believe that I had magic powers. whenever I went out and the wind was blowing, I thought I had made it happen. Me and my friend (who also, coincidentally, had super powers) would get our energy from a "magic" well under a tree. I thought that, if I ever got good enough, I could try body snatching for fun. This was in Fourth grade, which says ALOT.

Out of all the make-believe characters from childhood, the Easter Bunny was the one I maintained belief in longest. For some reason, a fat man with presents or a fairy that took my teeth seems silly, but an anthropomorphic rabbit that brought colored eggs and chocolate made total sense to me.

I used to believe that if you were not in bed on christmas night, Santa would arrive and not give you any presents.

I used to have an imaginary dragon friend named Fayilana. She was the dragon of the rainbow. There was also a baby rainbow dragon. We formed Fayilania, which was my room with a castle and my dragon.

When I was 5 I believed a witch lived under my bed. When it was time for bed I would clear a path between my lightswitch and my bed. I would then get in the pre-race stance with one hand on the lightswitch. Then as i flicked the switch off I'd take off running to my bed and when I was a couple of feet from the bed launch myself onto it. This way the witch wouldn't grab me by my feet and cook me in her pot.

There were, however, a few times when I jumped a little too soon, landing straight on my face,which I imagine looked pretty funny to the witch.

I used to believe that my life was one big long movie and aliens in outerspace were the audience. Lights/light-bulbs were the cameras therefore they could always see what I was doing so I always tried to dress fast so they wouldn't see me naked.

sometime in




In early
december, my mother would tell me that "Christmas is right around the corner". Until christmas arrived, every day I would run down to the end of our street to see if santa was coming with the toys.

I was scared of ghosts only when i was sick (i dont know why, just something about being sick and hearing and seeing things) so i convinced myself that ghosts dont want to eat sick little girls. They prefer healthy ones. But this just made me affriad of ghosts when i WASN'T sick.

I used to think that my brother was an alien from mars because he used to act so weird around everyone and he never did seem to fit in. One day I was eavesdropping on my mom and dad talking and I heard them say that my brother was an alien so I actually had proof that he was an alien. The nexy day I went to school and told all of my friends that my brother was an alien and I got in trouble for lieing. I didnt think that I was lieing so when I got home I told my mom that I had heard them talking and she told me that she was just joking and that my brother was not an alien.

When I was in grade 1, my cousin told me about the infamous, Bloody Mary.
My best friend and I always planned on summoning her. But till today (I'm 15 now) we haven't gathered the guts to do it.
Until yesterday when I did try BM. And all I saw was colorful splotches from going round and round too much. BM never came. I'm pretty convinced that she was busy scaring some other kid.

When I was young, I used to believe a cow skull my grandparents brought us from out west would come alive on our wall when I was sleeping and its eyes would glow green.
