I've decided I really like all these movies that portray the woods as evil, haunted and full of horrible monsters that will kill those foolhardy enough to go into them.
It keeps all the flatlanders in the city and out of my nice peaceful forests.
When I was in my latter single digit ages I thought monsters were everywhere; but I also knew the cure. Flushing the toilet would scare them (or perhaps the end of silence would calm me, one or the other) and so when I felt threatened I ran for the handle and gave a tug.
I can only hope there are flush toilets in the woods or never again will I be able to sleep under a dark, forboding canopy.
