monsters

My Stepmother led me to believe, at the young age of 6, that if I did not finish my dinner the "Sleastacks" from "Land of The Lost" would come get me. Talk about nightmares.... :)

When i was about 3, i had a dream in which some monsters came up ourr garden path and tried to eat me. For 5 years i believed that it hadn't been a dream, it had actually happened, and i wouldn't go into the garden alone.

When my brother was lttle he was always scared to look out a window at night because he thought that the emperor from star wars was waiting outside the window to shock him. Weird.

When I was 6 years old a fellow student told me that Gremlins were haunting me and the only way to get them to stop was to go to Jupiter and complete a deadly maze. Somehow I figured myself that if i was near my stuffed cat "Tiger" I would be safe. This went on for about 6 months but gradually i became less and less scared.

My parents told me that the Sand Monsters were going to pull me under the sand one day when i was buried, and i beleived them. i was so scared. for almost a month after that, i wouldnt even go near the sand. then my older sister told me the truth, i was furious!

When I was five, we had a housefire. We lost everything. Wen the firemen were fighting the fire, my mom, baby sister and I were in the chief's car. My mom says that I said I knew how the fire started. "A dragon flew over and breathed down the chimney." Hey, I was five!

My nephew is about 9 now, but a few years ago he wanted to go into an old trunk of mine. I told him no and he was frustrated. He was about to cry when i told him that it was my sister Janelle's evil twin Danielle locked in there. He looked like he'd just gotten the pun to a big joke! He ran over and kicked it and said " I'm never letting YOU out!!!" Haha

Around the age of 6 I had a little fantasy I scared myself with where I thought I'd wake up to find a monster had literally grown out of me overnight. I pictured it as a sort of purple brain with beady eyes and lots of root-like arms. I eventually decided it wasn't such a scary thought because the creature would have to consider me its parent, and we'de be best friends.

I used to think that monsters would come and get me after i fell asleep. So I always made booby traps and right after that i would usually fall asleep with the light on. IN the morning hte light would be off and hte traps would be messed up. i thought wow! i taught those monsters! now i know that the "monsters" were my parents who came in to turn the light off

When i was little i saw the show unsolved mysteries. They showed this thing that was a "Mothman" It had fur and red eyes. It could fly and it scared the hell out of me. From then on whenever i saw a moth i would scream and run inside.

I used to be afraid of the window. I thought that there was some escaped maniac standing outside. The when i opened the curtain i would see his face and he would smile really scary. So when ever i neared the window i would scream. It annoyed my parents so mush that they made me sleep somewhere without windows. And that was their closet. But i loved it. Finally i overcame my fear

When I was 6 I thought there was a hunter and his bloodhound and they would always try to kill me and put my head on a wall as a trophy. I would always hide under the covers at night when I was sure they were coming. And then one night, I pulled off his jacket, and they turned out to be a bunch of baby chickens stacked on each other's backs who just came to give me candy.

when i was around 7 or 8, i REALLY REALLY thot there was a gorilla in my bedroom wall, and i was especially scared because my brother had made a small hole in the wall, so now i thot they could watch me, and when i wasnt looking the gorillaz would come out to eat me! i was really scared, like actually terrified to go to bed..

iw as told that the "safeway Gremlins" would come out from under crawlspaces in safeway (at night) and rearange the items. since I jumped and made lots of noise on the crawl spaces, i thought they'd come up and eat me!

I still wont jump on safeway crawlspaces...

I used to believe that whenever i was on my staircase and i turned the light off, there was a big sort of monster/rat thing in the washing machine room that was on the stairs, so i'd run down the stairs as fast as i could.
