Every child fears under their bed. If they don't, they fear the closet, or maybe that little crack in the almost closed door.
Scientists know that children are more perceptive, they see things adults don't. They aren't yet tethered into only accepting what society wants them to accept. They see what is truly there.
They see the monsters.
If you were to borrow a child's eyes and see through them for a night, you would go insane. To be able to see what you only dimly remember, burrowing into your covers while wearing those train pajamas, hoping to a God you can barely comprehend that "it" doesn't see you back...would drive an adult crazy. Because Adults forget the rules.
1)Cover yourself. If you can't see it, it can't see you. Even if it makes it harder to breathe.
2) Don't make a noise. Every whimper can lead to destruction.
3) Don't move. It attracts their attention.
4) Only light can make them go away. Bright light. Flashlights make it worse.
Teens are caught in the middle. They still feel what's there, but they cannot see... and they forget the rules....
Why do you think there are so many insomniacs typing at their computers, subconsciously praying the light from their monitor will be enough to keep -them- away? .....
It's not. Now look behind you with a child's eyes and try not to scream.

I fear no evil, for I am fear incarnate.

I don't think I ever went through the "monsters in my closet" stage when I was little. We did, however, have a mouse who lived in our closet. We fed potato chips to it! =D
edit!
We have a mouse in the ceiling of our house right now. Oh, here comes my sister! (In other words, don't expect me to be online much longer.) =D
