toilets

I thought a waitch was going to pop out of the toilet and get me when I flushed it!

After seeing the film Batman i was sure that if you flushed the toilet and didn't leave the room at full pace the penguin would pop up (riding a giant rubber duck) and eat your face.

I used to believe crocodiles lived in the toilet, and they ate your poop but if you were still in the bathroom when the sound (that comes after you flush and is for a little while) stops they would come up and get the poop and take you too.

When I was at kindergarten we used to get a day a year where they hired clowns to entertain the kids. One night I had a bad dream, in which one of said clowns drowned in a toilet. On recounting this to my kindergarten teacher, she told me that there was a monster in every toilet that only eats clowns. I believed every word of it and to this day I associate clowns with lavatorial drowning. The woman scarred me for life!

my cousin told me that there will be a ghost hand crabing you bud while you are going to the toilet and me and my youhger cousin believe that and we are too scared to go to the toilet , my younger cousin wet his bed

A friend's mum told her that if she flushed the toilet whilst she was still sitting on it, she would be flushed down too! She is 22 and still frightened to do this!

When i was little my babysitter made me and my older sister watch "IT" the movie... i wanted to watch carebears.. so after we watched the movie .. i had the weirdest fear of using the toilet.. i would hover and watch inside the toilet and make sure that this werid clown guy wouldn't come out and grab me and take me and kill me or what ever...

I used to believe…

After watching the film "Deep Rising", in which a woman was sucked down the toilet by a mutant (and you can all guess what that looked like)
i could not go to my toilet for the next week without inspecting "doon the pan " for mutant snakes!!

I used to believe…

my dad told me that if i didnt wipe myself properley after using the toilet, a big hairy hand would come up through the toilet and get me. I used to flush the toilet while still on it and leave the door open so i could run out..........just in case.

My slightly older female cousin told me a story about these girls who got grabbed by a witch who lived in the toilet. When they flushed the toilet, this witch would grab them and skin them, eat their bodies and leave their skins in the bath tub. She said that the loud roaring noise the toilet makes when flushed was the witch crying out because she missed catching you. I still hate the noise of flushing toilets...

I used to believe…

After watching "Jaws" (one of our more gullible babysitters let us do it), my youngest brother was convinced that sharks came up into toilets to eat the people sitting on them. The rest of us encouraged this phobia by humming the theme song every time he went into the bathroom. This eventually backfired on us: my mother made us go in the bathroom with him, b/c he was starting to get constipated.

I used to think that when i flushed the toilet, the waste water would eventually come back to the fawcett that fed our bath tub. Therefore, every time I had a bath I checked first before getting in the tub to make sure there weren't any turds floating around.

I used to believe that the toilet would suck me down if I flushed it.

I used to believe that when you flushed the toilet it would set of a ghost alarm and they would all fly out of the toilet. so whenever i flushed it i would run as fast as i could down the stairs so the ghosts didnt get me.

I used to belive that scary muppets where coming up from the toilets when the lid was closed(!).. therefore I refused to enter a bathroom if the lid wasn't open.

My grandfather terrorised me from the age of 5 by telling me that the devil lived down the toilet. I still can't leave a toilet seat up even now.
