Fear of The Dark

When I was little I was always scared of the dark. I just didn't know what was out there and what i could do about it. It was just to mysterious for me to handle. Sometimes if i was to loud and annoying for my mom to handle and i would wake my dad up my mom would put me downstairs in the basesment to quiet down. I could never reach the light switch because it was higher up than normal and I was just to short for it. I could never get used to that feeling of helplessness of being down there by myself with the lights out. My fear of the dark can relate to the fear the kids in "The Lord of the Flies" have to the dark in the island and whats out there or what they think is out there on the island.
