under my bed

I used to believe that an an alligator lived under the bed I shared with my sister. It wasn't just any alligator but THE alligator that the dad flushed down the toilet in that 80's tv movie. To this day, if I wake up with any part of my body hanging over the edge of the bed, I feel a quick second of panic and I shudder. My sister had sworn this to be the truth when she told me this when she was about 9 and I was about 6.

I used to believe that if I allowed a foot or arm to dangle over the edge of my bed that "something" would grab it and drag me under.

When I was little I believed that when it grew dark, monsters would appear under my bed. I would always check that my bed was pushed right up against the wall so that no monsters could crawl up the wall and eat me while I slept, and I would always jump very quickly onto my bed, so that they couldn't grab my ankles, and dive under the covers at bedtime.

woah-its dark in here.

I used to believe that there was little trolls and monsters under my bed and in my closet. SO i would make my blankets really messy to make them look like no one was under them and I would make a tiny space in the blanket so i can peak and breath out of it if it got stuff under the blanket. I thought that if i layed still and it looked like no one was in bed, they would leave and bother other kids at night. I tricked them everytime!

Until I was 10, I believed that my pillow was
shouting to me (when my father said so) that I should come to him (it?) and sleep. My pillow was truly alive. I always ran to my pillow without hesitation, and must have been an exemplary child.

I got over this when i was about 10 but it still bothers me thinking about it. When i would go to bed sometimes i would get hot and hang my hand or foot over the side of the bed out from under the covers, and i used to think something would come and grab either my hand or foot so i stoped doing that. And like i said it still bothers me now.

When I was probably 4, I had a little plastic toy of Stimpy, from Ren and Stimpy. One day the Stimpy doll fell through the crack between my bed and the wall. When I look into the crack to find it, it was always looking up. So I thought if I ever looked down the crack or put my hand by it, he'd eat me.

I used to think an aligator lived under my bed and if my hands or feet hung down, it would nibble on them.

I used to believe that there were such creatures as gollum off lord of the rings and they would cum and steal my ring off my finger in the night because it was precious coz my nan gave it to me

When i was about 4 i used to believe that when my sister pulled out her bed from under mine(we have a ppull out bed that makes more space)that she put alligators under my bed and then she scare me and say don't look under that bed or the alligators will get your nose. I'd cry and to this day on she still tries to scare me by scratching, hooing, and banging on the wall i open the door and she runs.

want to kill

I used to think that there was a monster with a knife under my bed and if I ever slept on my back he would pop up and hurt me with his knife. I don't know how I ever thought up of that.

When I was little I wanted to do everything like my older sister. We had a bunkbed and she slept at the top (even though she weighed more than me but I was too young to understand this was unfair). One day I wanted to sleep at the top and my parents let me. I went up but I kept seeing "visions" of evil skeletons from beyond coming to get me. I was whimpering and trying to sleep real badly but finally I ran into my parents bedroom crying.

remember the clown from the movie Poltergeist, when it hides under the bed and attacks the kid, well after seeing the movie,when i was much too young to be watching something like that, i had nightmares for years that it was under my bed and i still to this day, i'm 30 now, hate having my toes pocking out at the foot of the bed...that clown is there i tell you!

silly goose

Did anyone else think that if you were outside the covers, you were in danger, but inside, you were really safe and protected? I used to race to the toilet and back to get back into my bed! The irony!

When I was young my bed was against the wall. I used to belive if I got too close to the crack I would shrink and fall down. The fear was hightened when my brother told me a troll lived there.

Every night under my bed i would allways think there was a buggy man gonna come up and grab me by my feet so every night i would keep my feet in under the blankets and i would curl up so nothing at all could get to my feet. So a cupple years lator i was still scared of the buggy man so my dad went and got me a bed that has drawers at the bottom and theres no way the buggy man could ever get to me.

Thanks to my brother, I feared many things. One being that someone or something was hiding in any corner or any nook or cranny in my bedroom. I thought witches lived in my closet and behind the curtains. Also, gun wielding midgets hid under my dresser waiting to shoot my ankles.
