Oh yes! You see, normal children have monsters in the closet or under the bed. Not me. Why would cookie monster do anything other than give me cookies? I would hope he was in my closet! But, unfortunately, if he was, he was also very afraid of what did live under my bed. Two very scary men.

I still remember what they were supposed to look like. One was very scrawny, wore a tattered flannel shirt, and had a mustache. The other was bigger and sometimes wore a butcher's apron. He had a big old knife with the other had a switch blade. I know they had names but I don't recall them. Their job was, if I got out of bed in the middle of the night (as three and four year olds are prone to do) was to cut my Achillies' tendon so I would never be able to get out of bed again.

I was about three or four when I thought these two hired assassins lived beneath my bed. I put together why I thought this many years later. What most likely happened is my Dad scared me into staying in bed one night, I had a nightmare, and that nightmare was based on a news report from that evening. During that time in Idaho and Utah, there had been a string of robberies were, in a couple of cases, the robber laid in wait beneath the car and would slash at the ankles of the owner of said vehicle as s/he went to put the groceries in. There had been an attack that night and I had seen the news reports.

I would highly recommend NOT watching Pet Semetary.
