"Gonna sleep with the light on!" LostBoys 1987

Yes, boys and girls even big kids have nightmares. Last night I had one that scared me enough to turn on the light. I don't remember what it was about, but when I opened my eyes in the dark room and I could still see the swirling creepy faces moving around. I believe the next words out of my mouth were "Bleep this!" and then I turned on the light. After the light came on I was asleep within 2 minutes.
I think a commercial for this new Exorcist movie creeped me out. It had the demon faces in it and people with their mouths and eyes replaced by dark spots. That look and the moving jerky "The Ring" walk always gets me creeped.
Tonight, I sleep with a teddy bear.
