When I was little, I used to be afraid of the dark. I always thought that there was a ghost in my closet（壁橱）. Houses often made strange noises at night. Sometimes I could feel eyes watching me and I was afraid to move. I thought that if I didn't move, "they" wouldn't get me. Usually when this happened, I wanted to go to the bathroom. So before going there I would be huddling（缩作一团）under my quilt, trying to build up the courage for scary night-time trip to the bathroom.
My fear of the dark left me when I was in my early teens. I had a dream. In my dream, I saw this ghost. He was right in front of me. I somehow found the courage. I was so angry with him that I beat him. This dream was so exciting that I can still remember it. After this dream, my fear of the dark was gone. I'm not afraid of the dark or anything else anymore.
Has anyone else had a dream like this that helped him or her?
