I used to believe that if I sat on the toilet too long a snake would come up and bite me.

I used to belive that scary muppets where coming up from the toilets when the lid was closed(!).. therefore I refused to enter a bathroom if the lid wasn't open.

My grandfather terrorised me from the age of 5 by telling me that the devil lived down the toilet. I still can't leave a toilet seat up even now.

When I was in pre-school, I borrowed a record of Jack and the Beanstalk from our local library. Something on the record must have reminded me of flushing toilets, because for months afterward I was afraid that the ogre would come out of the toilet and get me if I flushed it. Needless to say, my parents got very irritated with the unflushed toilets!

I used to think that every time I used a toilet at a place I was not familiar with (such as a public restroom in a distant city, while traveling, etc.), that some kind of monster was going to come out and grab my parts below, and haul me away through the pipings.

In the boy's toilets at our primary school, there used to be 5 cubicles, however one of them never opened. For years everyone thought that a pupil had fallen down the toilet and the cubicle had been sealed. None of the teachers knew we thought this. Anyway, one parent's evening (student-teacher conference) someone's father was desperate to use the toilet so he just opened the door to the forbidden cubicle and walked in. Needless to say there was mass hysteria from the boy in the toilet, who all came screaming out. Turns out that the door had just been stuck with bubble gum. I also later found out that the teachers knew about it, but never told because they liked the idea of an emergency staff toilet that was always free and CLEAN!

When I was young I would always look between my legs into the toilet while I went pottie. I figured if I saw the lobsters as they were coming out I would make a break for it and I might get out before they pinched my bum.

When i was young we had an outside toilet. I was told not to sit for too long or else spiders would crawl up my bum and lay their eggs.

I used to think that there was a monster who lived in the toilet, so I used to wait until the last minute, then rush, because if I spent too long on the toilet it would reach out and get me. (I even now worry about my husband spending so long in the bathroom!) Also, I had to run out of the room once I had flushed the toilet, as that's when it's most likely to get you and suck you in!

As a kid I use to think that when I would sit on the toilet a witch's hand would come up and grab my bum. It was pretty frightening.

I used to be scared ****less (excuse the pun) of the toilet as, for a few weeks, when I flushed it the water would rise abnormally to the very top of the loo and stop there just before flooding. I thought it was doing it only to me as it was evil or something and to nobody else. It turned out tree roots had grown into the sewer pipes...

When I was little and we went on trips, every so often we would have to stop at a road side park to use the out-house. My biggest fear was sitting on the toilet. I was scared to death that a spider would come up and bite my butt or worse........ I would catch "Crotch Crickets" to avoid this from happening I would have to straddle the hole. To this day I still do the same thing. Hey, Ya never know!

As a kid, I was scared of things coming out of the toilet while I was sitting on it...a rat, a snake, a hand. The worst was what I thought would come out when I was done using it. I was scared to death of getting shots, and I thought that if I kept my naked bum near the toilet for too long, a mean man would come up and jab me with a needle. When I was through using the toilet, I would turn around as fast as I could, pull up my pants, flush the toilet and RUN! I had to run downstairs and sit on the couch before the toilet was done flushing or the evil shot man could still jab me with that needle. Really stupid, but I still get freaked out when my naked bum is facing a flushing toilet.

I used to have a fear of nocturnal visits to the toilet after seeing a program about rats coming out of toilets at night. I will go now, but only with the light on and I sing loud to scare any rats away!

I used to think that whenever you flushed the toilet germs would come spraying out, so I ALWAYS made sure to close the toilet lid, then I washed my hands, opened the door, flushed and ran for it!!
Then I went to a public toilet, and, horror of horrors, IT DIDN'T HAVE A LID!!! I was so terrified that I opened the door, wen't and got a stick, and reached in and pushed the button with it before runnin like hell for home and then washing my arm with disinfectant, which turned out to be mouthwash as I couldn't read.
