Written Confession: Lilliputians and Trolls Living in the Bedroom

The following written confession was shared via Reddit:

The creature from Cat's Eye.

I'm seeing a lot of faery encounters in here so I want to share this. Not sure if they were fae folk, but at the time it seemed so. When I was around 9-10 years old I had a fascination with giants and tiny things. My fear/fascination of giants is another story for another day. But, I had a thing for teeny tiny dolls like polly pocket and what-not. The reason being because I swore little people used to live in my room. On a few occasions I would awaken in the middle of the night to the sensation of having my covers sliding off. I would see several small beings trying to climb up my bed and pulling my blanket down to the floor as they did this. Sometimes they would climb my sisters crib. This was back when I was around four or five. As I got older I remember dolls moving or what I thought were dolls. One time I dropped something onto the floor and climbed down (of the bed) to look for it. I got down on my hands and knees and peered under my bed just as a dozen tiny people scrambled to hide. They were accompanied by tiny horses. I swear this all happened. Many years later I recalled this memory to my mother and she said we had a rodent problem when I was a kid. They weren't rodents. They were tiny people, wrangling tiny horses. As for the things that used to climb my bed and my sisters crib... they resembled the creature from Cat's Eye. I swear all if this is true.
