can’t bite through stuffed animals
As a child I was terrified that vampires were going to get me so I would either sleep with stuffed animals around my neck…or in the bathtub so I could see all around me.

Edward Cullen is a vampire I seriously don’t mind being bitten by. I say, bring it!
I do almost the same thing, but I have to sleep with the covers over the back part of my head so the zombies won’t eat my brain. I am sure it is because I saw a tv show where zombies ate these people’s brains in their sleep. They were walking around without the backs of their heads. Ugh.
I don’t mind people touching my neck but when I sleep I MUST have something under my neck. For the life of me I have to idea why.
I have a neck thing, too due to watching vampire movies when I was very young (bad influence cousins!). I cannot sleep with my neck exposed and vulnerable, and I absolutely CANNOT allow anyone to touch the front of my neck with their hands, or they are likely to come a-cropper.
Looking back, does sleeping in the bathtub seem just a little…ironic to you?
Egads, I did that for years, sleep with a stuffed animal around my neck! I did it because I was afraid that serial killers would try and stab my neck, though, so the extra stuffing would give me time to react.
I made my poor sister neurotic just like this when we were kids. I told her all about vampires when she was about 4 or 5 and she spent a year sleeping with her fuzzy bunny earmuffs around her neck. She also took an entire ball of string and wove it around her furniture all over her bedroom so the vampire couldn’t get to her. I feel like such a jerk for doing that to her! I was so mean that when we went to Germany when she was 10 I told her we were really close to Transylvania. She’s my best friend now–heaven knows why she tolerates me at all!
I used to wrap a blanket around my neck and go to sleep with my mom’s garlic salt from the spice cabinet ready to hand.
I used to sleep with garlic and a piece of wood under my pillow. I had the wood because Buffy the Vampire Slayer always killed vampires by stabbing them with a wooden stake. I knew I would never have the guts to stab anything – but it still made me feel better.
