fear of

i used to believe that when i was on the toilet a giant red crab would come and bite my bum. i was so scared that i would stand in the bathroom for up to 10 minutes watching for the crab to come.

When I was little, I used to read on the toilet, and my parents got really mad because I took too long, so my dad told me that if you sat on the toilet for too long, it would suck out your intestines and make your butt all droopy. I believed this until I was 10.

I can never re-capture the same fear i had after i watched Critters far too young and then had to go to the toilet, i wasnt even in double figures and as i was going for a wee i was looking through my legs for this creature to come and drag me down to a certain death.. i looked so hard once i lost balance and fell in... and after a few drinks.. i find i still look now.

My mom used to tell me that if I didn't flush the toilet and feed the toilet monster that he would come and eat me in my sleep. So whenever I flushed the toilet I would jump behind the door to make sure he didnt eat me too.

when my younger brother was little he saw the movie LEPRECON and for about 3 months he thought that when he went potty there was a leprecon outside the door ready to kill him.

i used to think that the sound of a toilet flushing was the sound of a moster that eats ur poop.... pretty gross...

At the skating rink i used to go to te toilets there were automatic so u wouldnt haf to flush them, there would a sensor that waould no when u stood up. so until i was 6 i had my mom go to the bathroom with me and cover her hand over the sensor while i was going because i was a fraid that i would get sucked in if it flushed before i was done.

Stupid

My principal at our Elementary School used to say to us not to play around in the bathroom, so of course that made us play around more like this one girl showed her buttcrack and I think I janitor was in there and she reported the incident to the principal so the next day he announced he had just installed camera's in the bathrooms and he made a special request to someone not to show their buttcrack again and so everyday the girl would come in the restroom with a very small umbrella and sit it over her stall, do her buisness and come out. Very stupid. We all thought he was watching us from the camera so we would all bring umbrellas from then on until he announced he has had complaints from parents about the camera thing so he said there never were any but we were still afraid there were so we still carried umbrella's just in case.

i used to think that when i sat down on the toilet a snake would come up from the hole and bite me in the butt. so i would always check before i sat down, and sometimes take a peek while i was sitting down. of course one never came, thank god!

I always go to the bathroom before I take a shower. WHen I was little, I was afraid that while I was climbing into the tub (the toilet was right nnext to the shower) that the devil would jump out and grab my but, or some evil turds would jump out and grab my but, so I would get in the shower as fast as I could. Sometimes I would fall, but that darn devil, or evil turd never got me. I was proud of that.

When I was little I used to think that hundreds of little spiders lived in the toilet and would come out and bite your butt as soon as you sat down to use the toilet. I would never sit directly on the toilet but would hold my self an inch above the seat so they couldn't reach me!

i used to believe that there is a shark in the toilet that would bite me if I sat to long on the toilet.Then I read on the one toilet and it sed Shires Cobra and then I thought there was an Cobra also in the toilet.

When I was 5 years old, my mom and grandmother took my sister and I on a trip to Disney World. On the flight to Disney World, I had to go to the bathroom. I asked my mom to walk me, but she said the bathrooms were to small for 2 people to fit, so i went by myself. Well, after i was done going to the bathroom, i went to flush the toilet...to my surprise, the toilet made a huge and very loud suckion noise. I got scared and tried to open the door...but it was STUCK! I began to scream VERY LOUD, and cry, i banged and kicked on the door until 3 flight attendants came to my rescue. To my surprise, everyone on the plane was looking my way with concern. Bottom line, I was afrain the toilet would suck me in! I'm married now, and i still stare at the toilet everytime it flushes.

I was affriad of Toliets when I was a kid cause everytime I had to flash the toliet it made a loud nose and the nose would make me go death if I did't cover my ears....

ahhhh

When I was little, I asked my older sister what the flushing of the toilet was. She didn't give me a direct answer, but she told me never to be sitting on the toilet or have the lid open when you flush it. I became convinced that it was some sort of monster that would try to eat me, and then (I don't know how this part got into my head) I became convinced that if I made it past the toilet, the monster would come out of the bathroom closet. So I would do my stuff, close the lid, wash my hands, then flush the toilet and bolt for the door, making sure the closet door was closed.

It made me quicker in the bathroom.

A lot of people seem to have had the belief that if you didn't run out of the bathroom before the toilet was done flushing, a ghost/monster/vampire would appear. I did, too. I wonder where this sort of belief comes from?
