    You should listen to Fear of the Dark by Iron Maiden.

    Apparently this is learned as a child by silly parents / friends playing 'boo' when a young child walks into a room. They then learn that rooms that appear empty may have dangers lurking, and the same with dark corners.

    Check the doors and windows and you will know that there is nothing to fear!

    You shouldnt fear the dark. You should fear whats in the dark.
