make-believe: monsters

when i was about 10 i said candy man in the mirror, so for about 2 years i always thought that the candyman was trying to kill me

My favorite book growing up was one starring Grover from the Sesame Street called "There's a Monster at the End of This Book". My grandmother would always read it to me. The book was about Grover trying everything he could to keep the reader from turning the pages because he was scared of the monster at the end of the book. The only problem was that the last page was missing where the book reveals that Grover is the monster, so for years I was scared that the monster was on the loose and was going to get me.

I used to believe…

ever since my cousin scared on halloween when i was little,i thought monsters and killers like jason or micheal was out there but when i was real little it was the grim reaper.

(this is my sisters but oh well)
she used to belive when my dad and her went over the bridge in the country,h would use to get out,look under the bridge,get back in the car,tell her that there was trolls,and sped off.

In my mothers house there are 3 flights of stairs, when i was about 4-5 my older sister told me that if i steped on the bottom steps that a MONSTER would come and eat me in my sleep. I believed her so much that if i did accidentally step on one of thoses evil bottom steps that i would scream and cry when my mother tryed to put me to bed. Of course my sister also told me that if i told anyone that she told me that, the monsters would come and eat us both!!

When I was little, I saw the movie Gremlins. I was terrified!! I thought gremlins were real and that they'd run out of the dark and get me. Well, I used to have a play room and one day as I passed it, I saw out of the corner of my eye what I thought was a gremlin. I avoided that room like the plague for about a week. I finally got brave enough to go in (screaming bloody murder at it... as though that would help) and it turned out to be a crumpled up sock.

i believe that pumpkins are evil!i think they move around while the family are in bed and torture the rest of the things in the house. In the day, the creepy face of the jack-o' lanturn will tease the household objects with his mysterious grin as they know they are in for a night of terror.

when i was 5 i believed that at night a gorilla monster out to get me !

When i was younger i watched pewee herman a lot and in one episode there was a monster that was big blue with 1 foot 1 eye and a mouth on the side and its hop around making a bump bump sound. I was so afaid that he was going 2 eat me whenever i heard the base from cars passing by my house i was positive it was the bump bump monster comeing to get me so i would hide in my older sisters closet. To make things worse, my older sister decided it was funny to play along. As i was sitting in the closet she started screaming and say that he was eatting her; i sat in the closet for 2 hours b4 my mom found me crying.

When I was little, my mum used to tell me that if you didn't go to sleep, the moon would see you and tell his friend, Mr Crane (not a bird, the mechanical type!) would come and lift you out of bed and take you to a place where all the nughty children go. Needless to say I had a few nightmares and wouldn't go near cranes til I was about 7.

When I was younger i had this big fear of the dark because i thought thats when monsters came out and ate you...so in my childhood i developed this theory that if i pretended i was a monster that all the other monsters would be afraid of me. Needless to say i ran around in the ark growling and acting like a lunatic tryin to make myself look like a monster....

I used to be a spoiled brat and i used to cry a lot.
so my aunt told me that if i kept cryin a beast would break thru the window and bet me!!!

When i was little, i had a guy jump out at me from underneath the leaf piles on the side of the street. This was on halloween. For a while after that, i thought that people were actually buried in those leaf piles, but later i found out the truth.

I used to belive on halloween night that Micheal Myres would kill me when I came to 109 Elm St. I belived this becuz when my friend was holloweenin she died at 109 Elm St. After she passed out Micheal Myres came walking down the street with a knife in his hand(it was real).

Thanks to my dads devil lock i used to believe that the boogi man was green was covered completely in tatoos and had a devils lock. He killed you by whipping his devils lock at your neck and chokes you to death

I used to believe that when i fell asleep facing my wall that monsters would come into my room and come and get me......for years I'd sleep in the same position to avoid them.
