Swearing you’d never ride a bike again, then dreaming about it chasing you at night. Childhood fears had a way of following you to bed.

Through a child's #tears,
A caravan maze
... Abandoned.

Yellow cloak of fright,
Masked eyes pierce the dim hallway,
Shadows twist and play.

Closet Negotiations
Some childhood fears were imaginary. Others were just waiting for the door to open. - Humans inside Beware -

A sketch-inspired digital illustration captures the classic childhood nightmare of opening a closet door at exactly the wrong moment. A frightened young boy stands in the foreground, frozen mid-scream with wide, terrified eyes, messy brown hair, freckles, and oversized sneakers. His body leans backward in shock as he stares into the open closet. A hand-drawn sign taped to the closet door reads "HiB" - Humans inside Beware - in uneven lettering, adding an unsettling hint of humor. Filling nearly the entire doorway is an enormous cyclopean monster with a single bloodshot eye dominating its face. Its massive mouth gapes open in a deafening roar, exposing rows of long, jagged yellow teeth and a thick curling tongue. The creature's mottled green skin is covered with fleshy purple growths, tangled black hairs, and twisted horn-like appendages. Long clawed hands grip the doorframe while spindly legs emerge from the darkness behind it. Soft gray shadows and loose pencil linework give the scene the feel of an illustrated storybook, balancing exaggerated horror with playful cartoon energy. The contrast between the tiny child and the oversized monster emphasizes both fear and imagination, making the encounter simultaneously frightening and darkly amusing.

Most parents get this wrong: exposing kids to dogs could backfire unless you do THIS first.

Actual #prayer we used to say each night as #children:
"From ghoulies and ghosties
And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us."
Along with "If I die before I wake..."

Think you know ghost stories? Wait till you hear the ones told by kids. Their wild imaginations mix innocence with haunting details. Ever heard about the girl who played with an invisible friend... and never left the house? What’s your scariest childhood ghost tale? #GhostStories #ChildhoodFears

Every child is afraid of something.
The dark. Dogs. Strangers. Being alone. Getting sick. Something under the bed.
The goal was never to make the fear disappear.
It was to help them move through it. 🌿

It is pretty irrational the way monsters can't turn door handles or lift blankets.
