monsters

I used to think there were ferocious alligators that lived under my bed, but only at night. So if I needed something in the middle of the night, I could not get out of bed under any circumstances, because I would get eaten. Instead, I would SCREAM for my parents to come turn the light on first.

I used to believe that when you cut the lights out that something was in the dark watching me.

When I was 10, I saw Alien. Then Aliens. I then checked behind the shower curtain for a few years to make sure a Facehugger wasn't there waiting for me to use the toilet. :|

After watching too many scary films, including the Amityville ones, I had to sleep with the covers over my head in case I heard any demonic voices or saw any red eyes in the dark. I still do that sometimes, although only so my ears are covered now.

When I was little, my father told me that every night there was this "sand man" that put sand in your eyes to get you sleepy. For years I really thought he came every night, specially because my eyes would actually feel as if they had sand...

I used to think that foxes would come and eat me in my sleep because my older cousin told me that they would. The only way to survive the night was to cover my body up to my neck with my blanket. I still get a little freaked if I wake up and my neck is showing!

I used to believe that there was a birdman that lived in a dumpster in the field across from my old home because my sister told it to me so I wouldn't follow her and her friends when they'd go out to the field to smoke.

When I was little, my mom and dad's door (which you could see if you looked out my bedroom door) had some strangley shaped dark spots on them that were naturally in the wood. Well, every night when I was trying to sleep I would see the dark spots which to me and my sister looked like little dark spots.

Anyone heard the Carpet Monster!! me and my sister, living apart at the time, have both heard it, it started when i was a child, when your in bed at night and its really quiet the Carpet Monster starts its way from the downstairs to the top, its a slight shuffling sound you can hear at first but the more you listen the louder it gets unitl its nearly in your room then you frantically switch on the light....i never did let it get too close but to this day it still exists!! You Listen.
