When I was small, I used to believe that if you pull the label off of a pillow, FBI agents would jump out of the nearest closet and arrest me.

I thought that when water was heated it turned into tea. People boiled the kettle, poured it into a teapot and the magic was done.

When I was little (and for far too long into my childhood) I believed that my house was a giant's doll house, and my friends and family were being moved around by the giant girl who owned us. We only went to bed because the giant girl's mommy told her to stop playing. Every time we went someplace new, I was really excited because that meant that the giant girl's family got richer and bought her add-ons for her doll house!

I would always touch the feathers on my brother's dream catcher by his bed. Soooo soft. One day he told me that if I ever touched it again, my skin would fall off and I'd die.

When I was little I saw a TV program where a fire engine drove by a house, and a bit later the house catched fire. So I thought that your house can only burn if a fire engine first drives by your house.

i used to believe everything had feelings and wanted to be treated exactly as what it was. a chair would be lonely, for example, if someone didn't regularly sit on it. pretty exhausting belief for a kid trying to run around and use everything!

My grandparents used to tell me that there was a man named Mr. Smith who lived upstairs in their attic, and if I made noise I'd wake him up. Naturally I wanted to meet this stranger who lived in their house, but they'd never let me go up there. Now I know that it was just a story to keep the volume down.

My grandma has a weird machine in her shed and my dad tells me it is a "little machine" and if you get in it it makes you younger. (if I really believed that I would get in it!)

My sibs and I thought that the screen door was called the "scream door" so Mom could yell at us through it.

When I was around 3-4 years old and I wanted my mom to read a book I would tell her to go get a book. She would make me go get it, but i was scared that the basket my books were in had a hippo that was going to eat me

I went through a phase of paranoia, believing my parents had installed secret cameras behind my mirror and all around the house to watch me when they left me home alone. So, I would tend to stay in one room and not do very much. It kept me out of trouble anyway!

When I was about 4, I believed that if I got out of bed between midnight and sunrise, the floor would become electrified and I would be electrocuted if my feet touched the floor. My sister, who is 8 years older, told me this. I found out years later that she only said that so I'd stay in bed and not disturb her by getting up to use the bathroom.

When I was little, I had a BIG fear of the dark and open spaces. I always thought that if I stayed there for too long a monster would pop out from a corner, I was always running everyywhere knowing that this turn could be my last......I still do this.....
