We have to be careful of the Ankle Snatcher!
When he was six years old, the police arrested his father for murdering his mother.
His father claimed it was the boogeyman who took her; that it lives under the beds and it comes out after dark and if you get out of bed without turning on the light, it would snatch your ankle and drag you under the bed…
He always believed his father had killed his mother. He always believed boogeyman didn’t exist.
But what if his father was telling the truth?
What if there is a monster lurking in the dark, ready to snatch and drag and devour?

Splendid review! This sounds pretty good. Worth checking out?
Offff Chris! First of all put that coffee cup down, we don't want to lose it.
So, first it was the refrigerator now under the bed? what is next? hanging from the chandelier? Tell me, have you ever gone under the bed?
The story was alright but the writing was a bit choppy...like the author wasn't into it. I liked The Pram by Joe Hill better.
or your brain in your head..haha
If I had grown up in a Victorian home with a chandelier, you better believe I would have been jumping off the banister to try and hang from it. Yes, I have hid under the bed before as a kid, but it was not because I was trying to escape the clutches of a monster. It's dusty under there, I would not recommended it. haha.
So, if you have one of those low-level modern beds, what then? Does the monster clutch your ankle and try to squeeze you underneath? I feel like that would be pretty easy to escape from.
Okay. So a pass on this one. Thanks for the update.

Welcome!
Just out of curiosity...i am afraid to ask...what were you doing under the bed?
or philosophically speaking, you were the monster and someone else the victim?

Hiding from my parents of course! I do like your idea though. Start writing the book. Are there any more books in this series? There has to be at least one phobia that will scare you. :)

There is https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
In Bloom's rating is very low, don't know if it's any good.
I have Katsaridaphobia...Go check what that is because i can't even mention their names.
Let it stay safe a few Halloweens ago, where it belongs. I can't even touch the book!!!
