When I was around 4, my mom told me that when I was still inside her belly, a monster came at night while she was sleeping and that it tried to get me. Those kind of mythical monsters are the ones who eat fetuses from moms’ tummies. Anyway, she said she woke up while it was scratching her tummy and that my dad woke up too and tried to kill it but it got away. She then showed me “scars” on her belly that looked like some monster with long claws did it. I believed it for years and probably I was 10 when I learned it was a fake story and that those “scratches” on her belly were actually stretch marks. -_-
