under my bed

When I was a little girl, our bedrooms on the second floor, my sister who is 7 years older than me told me that there was a gremlin living under her bed. I think she was trying to keep me out of her room. Anyway I stopped believing that after a while and she went off to college. I then took over her room so I didn't have to share a room. No problem, no monsters. Until one day I looked out the window into the darkness and saw an animal staring in at me. ON THE SECOND FLOOR! I was so scared I covered myself from head to toe and refused to look out unless it was actually true. Only the next day did I remember that a part of the roof is right below my new bedroom window, so it was rational that a cat could try to get back into our house from the 2nd floor.

When I was very young, my mother once told me that as a child, she used to believe there was a creature resembling an alligator that lived under her bed. If she needed to get up in the night, she would stand on top of her bed and leap as far away from the edge as she could. When she told me this, I didn't believe that it was a monster or alligator. Instead I thought it was the Egyption God, Ammit, who ate unbalanced souls, and was described as having a crocodile's head. (I knew A LOT of weird ancient history as a child.) For many years, I too would leap onto and off my bed in fear of Ammit pulling me into the underworld & devouring my soul.

When i was about 8 i got a cabin bed from my parents. It freaked me out having to climb up the stair because i thought there was someone behind the bed waiting to grab me by my ankles, and drag me away through the stairs.

Still scared of cabin bed stairs

When I was about 4 I used to believe that there were a wolf and the devil under my bed,ready to take my legs, so I jumped from a long distance in order not to be taken by them.. I know that this could sound strange, but still today I "jump" down of my bed if I wake up in the middle of the night...

Whenever I was little I had read a horror story about a girl who's head fell off and landed beside her bed. For atleast half a year, I would not go on that side of the bed because I thought that her head would be there.

I used to think that spiders would come out of the shower!

After I was in bed for the night I could not get up and touch the floor or monsters would get me. mom or dad had to come in and turn on the light if i had to get something.

When I was little, I used to believe "the Cryptkeeper," from Tales form the Crypt, lived under my bed. If I didn't keep a majority of my body under the covers, he would come out and eat me or something. I don't think I ever decided what he would do.

I used to believe Cookie Monster was underneath my bed. When I got a little older I thought one of the monsters from the Little Monsters movie (with Howie Mandel) was under there and would kidnap my brother.

I used to believe that there was a totally diffrent world under my bed. I also used to believe that my stuff animals (I'm a boy who collected stuff animals but I not ashamed to admit it) could talk to me and I could talk to them and they where a look out crew that protected me.

When I was 7, I read this little story from some book of scary stories. In the story, a cat goes under a kids bed and unlocks a portal to the underground monster world and the monsters could grab the kid. When my dog went under my bed, I always thought that she unlocked the portal and the monsters were going to get me.

I used to have a fear that if I got out of bed at night and didnt set my feet down far enough from the bed something would grab my ankles and pull me under the bed.So before bed I would take a run and go and jump about 4 feet from my bed and I would always land safely in the middle of my mattress.And I used to be afraid when I was sitting on the toilet that a hand would grab my butt and pull me in.I was a weird kid....

I used to believe that if i left my feet hanging over my bed as as i slept a monster would come and pull my toenails off, because thats what my dad used to tell me when he saw my feet from under the covers.
