bathrooms

Ever read/seen Stephen King's 'It'? If you haven't, it's about a evil clown creature thing that kills kids and comes up through sinks, showers, toilets etc. I was deathly afraid of the washroom for about a week after seeing the movie.

I was so scared from the movie IT, I thought a clown would come of of the drain when I was in the shower. So after hearing a little more about the movie from my dad, I found out that the clown was actually some kind of an alien spider. So i would spray bug spray on the drain to keep it away. I was about 11

I used to believe that the handles of toothbrushes were made out of hippo teeth. I know this originated in Kindergarten, but I don't know how.

I used to think everything in the bathroom came to life when I wasn't looking and "stood still" when I was.
Sometimes I would turn around really fast to try and "catch them" walking around.

I used to believe whenever I went to the bathroom of my tita's house, that the lights would flicker because my knid of mental grandpa was playing tricks on me. I was going #2, so I couldn't get off! I was really scared. Then I learned it was just the power that went out. It messed up a few things, like the bathroom. Still, I never went in again. LOL!!!

I used to belive that the drain in the tub would suck yuo down if you didn't get out before the water went down. I thought that because I thought since I wasn't as heavy as the average 3 yr old, It would suck me down with the water. The drain looked like a vacume 2 me, because at the end it made that gurgling noise. I also thought there was a monster down there, like hairy one, or a shark, or as a replacement, a clown.

I don't know why, but i used to believe that, under all the bathroom drains, there was a room. And there was a bum in the room with a pot who caught all the water in the pot when any water went down the drains ...

i used to belive if you were in the tub for more than 2 minutes it would eat you....

I used to believe that bidets were little toilets for babies or midgets. It made sense to me at the time though...

I used to believe that if i was still lingering in the bath when the plug was pulled out, my skin would get sucked of my bones and down the drain too!

I used to believe that there was a big monster under the sink that drank the water we spilled, and I was always afraid that one day it would get full of water and explode.

When I was very small i was convinced that I could go down the bathtub drain, just like the water. I would FREAK OUT if someone didn't grab me out of the tub before the little "drain tornado" appeared. Thank god for physics.

I used to believe there was monster (he looked rather like a Yowie) living in the plumbing who would suck out all the water when you pulled the plug, that's why there were all those slurping noises. My sister told me if you sat in the bath while it was draining, he would eat you too!!

I used to think that there was an octopus living underneath my bathtub and if I touched the drain, it would come up and drag me down with it.

For some reason, I used to think that there was always a murderer in the tub behind the shower curtain, waiting to kill me as I peed at night. Even now, I still leave the shower curtain pulled back.

I have a serious case of arachnophobia, so whenever I took a shower, I was always afraid that giant spiders would crawl up out of the drain and eat me alive. Even now, I still stare at the drain and stand as far away from it as I possibly can.

i used to think if i sang into the drain/hole thing at the top of the bath, people would hear me out of the pipes sticking outside on the wall of our house and listen to me

When I was about 7 years old, I thought that there were goldfish in the tub watching me. I always had bubble baths so I couldn't "see" them, but I thought the see-through bubbles were fish eyes and the large ones were piranha eyes. I was frightened of bubble baths for 3 years.

The Greatest Person Ever

you know how when water goes down the drain it makes kind of a tornado looking thing in the water right above th drain? well when i was younger i used to think that when it did that it meant that we were going to have a tornado soon. so i used to sit in the bath while the water was draining and swish the water around a lot so it wouldn't look like that when it was going down.
