‘My friend’s sister showed us a three sided mirror and said if you recite the Lord’s Prayer backwards you see the devil behind you in the mirror. I was only about 14 at the time and to say I didn’t get much sleep is an understatement!’

‘A new mate from school (when we just started secondary) invited me round for dinner.
‘As soon as we walked into his guest house he proceeds to fleg huge greenies straight onto the carpet and rubbed it in with his shoe. But worse than that he walked into the living room and did the same thing right in front of his parent and they said absolutely nothing about it.’

‘My friend’s family and me were all in their front room watching TV and eating fish and chips. One of their dogs went over to the TV, cocked its leg and pissed all over the TV stand in plain view, then wandered off. Nobody batted an eyelid. The piss was everywhere and just dripping off the TV stand!’

‘My best friend at school lived in an old cottage in a village. The cottage was supposedly haunted, mainly by something stamping up the stairs.
‘I slept in her bedroom and all night there was tapping on the walls, all round the room one wall after another. It kept me awake. Her room was on the corner of the house so two walls were outside walls so it couldn’t have been someone doing it. Tap tap tap tap.’

‘I grew up in a fairly strict Christian household and going to a Catholic school I presumed every other kid lived like me. In year 5, I was allowed to go to a sleepover party. We watched Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me then played this interactive VHS horror board game called Atmosfear.
‘I slept by the VHS-played green light all night in a state of confusion and terror. In the morning we had a McDonalds breakfast. It was a wild night of rebellion for me and I will always hold it dearly.’
