A long-time ago I used to have this dream everyonce in a while, you'd call it a nightmare i guess, about being in bed, and having this feeling that I needed to bend down over the side of the bed, -the part facing the wall, not the part where you get out of bed- and look under it. It was always pitch dark under the bed, and I knew if I looked under it, there would be a problem. Well the dream always went on for who knows how long, but eventually I'd get this compelling feeling to bend over and look under the bed -in dream state- and when I did I'd get this low growling build up, then i'd wake up... I think i'd always wake up so the shock would subside, i can tell you that it was a jarring experience everytime, and when I would wake up i'd really feel disturbed, almost like the dream was real...

Weird eh?

No longer happens, and i can't even remember the last time I HAD a dream much less a nightmare... It might be the fact that I rarely sleep anymore... lol

If i were you i would not sleep. Good thing you're not. Because....something....something is under your bed and it wants YOU bad.

Leave all the lights and the TV on, in case you should slip into sleep.

Why don't you sleep anymore? Are you afraid that you will have nightmares?

I get insomnia sometimes when I stress and worry about things.

This sounds like one of those childhood memories that you'll probably never loose and it's still possible you may have it again especially as you've written about it here. Losing the FEAR of it IS possible though.

Try scaring IT for a change, I think you'll be surprised at how powerfull you really can be.

It owes you "underbed" rent going waaaaay baaaaack and it's time to collect!

Good luck.

Hi DG,

This is a joke right? what is going on here at ATS? been coming here for many years and things have certainly changed. Everything is "under close staff scrutiny", maybe one decent topic a week- if that, Everytime I come here, theres a new rule posted or a reminder like the 5 that I'm staring at now. The boogy man under your bed? Really? Maybe its freddy kruger. Someone has sold out.

Dont know what to say really since i dont do sleep readings. but from personal experience of being a spiritualist since birth, seeing astral spirits and other wild things. Just dont worry about it. Get excited about it imo, if your lucky you might see somthing while your awake !

I can understand at first being scared, since I was little i would get scared as hell when i seen stuff. but after awhile it was a normal thing to me and I would just look at it and turn the other way. (Unless it was astral energy floating around, I would gaze into those beauty)

Nerbot's right you have to turn the tables and scare it/them.

What I did is setup a digital camera and snapped a few pictures. I had to trick it - of course by putting it on a timer. One of the flash pictures captured the little guy surprised as hell and worried I would distribute it. (not under the bed - behind me while I worked). Then I told him I would destroy the picture if he would quit showing up and it worked.

I once had a nightmare that I was being eaten by Roseanne Barr, but I'm not gonna go make a whole thread about it.
