Things That Go "Bump" in the Night	comment	The monster living in your closet. The creature lurking in the shadows underneath your bed. The thing hiding in your basement. The guy who begins scratching his long, razor-sharp nails on your windowpane the instant you draw the curtains and turn out the lights. The guy that...sorry if I'm getting too scary. So just remember that the Boogeyman, The Golems, or the Oni is and are right there. In your closet. Under your bed. In the dark. At night... Waiting. There might be somebody you can call, but if not, just stay under the covers. Often found in concert with an Ironic Nursery Tune. Not to be confused with being kept awake at night by your neighbors having noisy fun. Or with Monster Closet, a video game trope about hidden enemies. See also Never Sleep Again, Mental Monster, Poorly Lit Pareidolia, Sleep Paralysis Creature.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_1361afec	comment	In the horror novel Jago, a town is afflicted with a force that causes people's fears and obsessions to come to life. Jeremy is afraid of an Evil Dwarf that he believes hides in his room and comes out after the light is switched off, and will try to suck his brain out of his skull if he doesn't hide under the covers. When it manifests, he actually doesn't have too much trouble defeating it, because it's actually a bit ridiculous when it appears in clearly visible physical form instead of as a vague possibility lurking in the dark — and also because by then he's had several experiences that were far more terrifying.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_14f9297e	comment	The Far Side: Gary Larson often used this trope: One strip plugs a "Monster Snorkel", which lets you breathe under your bed-covers without exposing even an inch of skin to attack, demonstrated by a child using it to hide from a wolfman and a spiky dinosaur-thing. In the introduction to one of his strip collections, Larson notes that one of the monsters above the blanket (the wolf) is one of his own childhood boogeymen. He also tells how his older brother hid in his (Gary's) closet one night and sloooowly slid open the door... Another strip features two boogeymen frightened by the possibility that there may be something lurking on top of the bed. Another one invokes the trope in the title, and featured a boogeyman knocking his head on the top of the door frame while trying to sneak into the kid's room. Parodied in one with a couple investigating a strange noise downstairs and finding a horrible towering monster... and being relieved, because it's "just Kevin" having a midnight snack. One strip shows a monster eating breakfast with his wife and saying, "Dang! Look at the time! ... And I gotta be in little Billy Harrison's closet before nightfall!" And one where the kid checks his closet, and it's empty for the moment.. except for the monster's chair, magazine, snacks, etc. One nighttime monster is literally indescribable... because it's wearing a paper bag (with horn holes) over its head to make sure the kid it's scaring can't actually describe it to his mother.

When Marge gets addicted to slot machines in "$pringfield", Lisa's forced to turn to Homer when she has a dream about the boogeyman. Upon hearing the very word Homer freaks out, orders the windows and doors locked, grabs his shotgun, and holes up the rest of the family in his bedroom until Marge comes home. And by the time Marge gets home the door has a noticeable hole in it.

My Little Brother is a Monster has a monster come out of the closet and one that turns up at the window (though averted in that case, since Keegle Farzym is friendly), Momster in the Closet (which may or may not be just imaginary), the title character of The Thing That Goes Burp in the Night (which lurks in their basement), and the title character of the poem The Bogeyman. Bruce Coville's Book of Nightmares II: The poem It Came from the Closet revolves around a boy explaining to his dad that a monster lives in his closet. It ate a bunch of stuff, including his clothes... which is why he's naked as he tells his dad this.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_2dab4fef	comment	The real world, grown-up version of these fears is the urban legend of the criminal who hides underneath your car in the mall parking lot and grabs or slashes your ankles, and then either drags you under there screaming or crawls out to finish the job. According to Snopes the exact intent of this bogeyman varies from simple assault and larceny to rape to murder to ritual mutilation (having to collect a female body part as part of a gang initiation rite). Paranoia and fear over this actually reached a point where adults had to be escorted to their cars by police like a child insisted on being escorted and tucked into bed by their parents.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_2ef88218	comment	The Book of Unremitting Horror provides the beings from the Outer Dark like the child-stalking Kooks and Bloody Mary expy Strap Throat, to haunt the nights and shadows in the game settings of the The Esoterrorists and Fear Itself. In Esoterrorists, the heroic Ordo Veritatis has kept them in check with bullets to the head and the occasional missile strike but in Fear Itself, the Outer Dark has almost free reign on Earth so it's not just the dark when these things are most active and goes into full Cosmic Horror once gods like the Empty One and the Mystery Man take over.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_400469e	comment	Calvin and Hobbes: Calvin often has to battle under-the-bed monsters, never fully depicted but often shown as alien, tentacled... things, never seen except for their eyes and occasional claws looming out of the shadows. One of the comic's strip collections is even titled Something Under the Bed Is Drooling. Luckily, they're also not very smart; they'll leave Calvin alone if he leaves garbage under the bed for them to eat — much to his parents' chagrin — and their poor bluffing caused their ambushes to fail on two separate occasions. The collection The Essential Calvin and Hobbes contains an original poem (with some fantastic, if terrifying, illustrations) called "A Nauseous Nocturne," about such a monster attacking Calvin at night, but then getting scared away by a sleeping Hobbes.

One such example is SCP-6087 (the 'Voice-Taker'), a ghostly figure with a large mouth and a beard of flies who steals the voices of naughty children. Another is SCP-6097, a Humanoid Abomination known as 'Granny Rat Tail', who resembles an elderly lady possessing a rat's tail, with a large eyeball at its tip. During the early nineteenth century, she was known to visit the small town of Brownsborough Massachusetts, flying on an enchanted wooden spoon, and extend her eye-tail down house chimneys in order to find and steal young babies to cook and eat them. From the Italian version of the site there's SCP-015-IT who's purported to be the boogeyman, a Humanoid Abomination with glowing eyes that feeds on fear by paralyzing its victims and sucking blood directly from their adrenal gland. There's also SCP-80, another Emotion Eater that's a black mist with Nightmare Weaver powers that lurked in children's closets and under their beds.

Well illustrated in this quote: Subverted in the episode "Home", in which the monster in the closet turns out to be a benevolent spirit that's protecting a child from a much nastier ghost.

In one sketch, Grover tries to talk about how fear of the dark is ridiculous, despite being afraid of the dark himself. He mentions that people who are afraid of the dark might believe there are "scary things" lurking in the dark, but there aren't... yet he doesn't seem so sure of those things' absence. In one skit, Ernie fears there are evil monsters in his and Bert's room that say, "Wubba wubba!". Bert tells him it's all in his head and tells him to imagine something better.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_468bebb0	comment	Discworld: Bogeymen are a species of creature which like to hide behind doors or under beds or in cellars, and, due to Clap Your Hands If You Believe being in full power on the Discworld, exist explicitly because children think that they do — if a child is convinced firmly enough that monsters might lurk in dark corners, then the big hairy things from their imagination will indeed be present in the dark, scary places of their house. They can be defeated with the knowledge that they don't know anything under a blanket exists. INCLUDING THEMSELVES. They're occasionally not-seen on the streets, hiding behind their door. They're entirely capable of lifting one off its hinges and walking off with it. A fireplace poker also works, in a pinch — beating bogeymen senseless with a stout length of iron happens to be Susan sto Helit's preferred method of dealing with child-scaring bogey. This trope also manifests itself in Hogfather, when the Tooth Fairy's tower defends itself with things that scared the robbers when they were kids. Makes sense, since the original Tooth Fairy started life as the original Bogeyman, the Anthropomorphic Personification of the fear of the unknown, of the darkness inside caves and of the beasts out in the night that haunted the dreams of proto-humans.

He also seems to particularly target teenagers who are transgressive against social norms. In a subversion of this particular trope, he doesn't show much if any interest in actual children. This changes in some of the later films in the franchise, with his targeting of his niece Jamie Lloyd.

In fortress mode, ghosts, who can be disturbing at best and deadly at worst, and vampires, predators cunning enough to evade even the player's attention while leaving mysterious corpses, are the things that go bump.

Once Binkley is old enough to worry about more mature problems, avatars of said fears show up in the closet with the monsters, sometimes scaring the monsters themselves. For instance, in one strip, the Snorklewhacker gives Binkley a choice between a convention of PM Magazine hosts, Jesse Helms explaining at length why Martin Luther King Jr. was a communist, or a huge, Binkley-eating python. Binkley opts for the python, saying, "Heck, I'm no glutton for punishment". Eventually the fear closets of other characters are also shown.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_7f640c5a	comment	The Sims 4: With the "Kids Room Stuff" DLC pack, child Sims who sleep in a child-sized bed will occasionally get a visit from a many-tentacled "Monster Under the Bed" in their sleep. The child Sim will then refuse to sleep in any bed for a few hours until an adult Sim sprays it away. Spraying the bed just before the child Sim goes to sleep often prevents the Monster from showing up in the first place.

There are a couple of ways to detect its presence — a Gengar in your shadow can be spotted by the sudden chill its life-draining causes, or by seeing your shadow overtake you in the middle of the night. Sometimes, you can just flat-out spot its leer floating in the darkness. Its Pokedex entry from Pokemon Sun is particularly chilling. Darkrai could be considered as an inversion despite being based on the Bogeyman, as, according to its Pokedex entry, it only creates nightmares if it is threatened.

However, the monster was always just a figment of Dez's imagination, so he can't complete it. When the shoes won't leave Dez alone about the last task though, Puffin wishes the monster was real, creating a tentacled Living Shadow that turns everything it touches into nothingness. It ultimately turns out to be a projection created by the shoes themselves, as the imagined monster had just been shadows projected by the young Dez placing his shoes in front of his night light with a fan turned on.

The card Bump in the Night depicts a dark, shrouded figure with a single g-glowing eye standing in front of a window at night. Old Stickfingers is an ancient entity that has become a feared boogeyman among the people of Lambholdt, who know him as a shadowy figure that lurks in the darkness and waits for the right moment to carry you off. He tends to ambush his victims from behind, and has the uncanny ability to seem right behind you even when you're facing him directly. In person, he's an amalgamation of every child's nightmares, an almost-real conglomeration of inconstant, monstrous traits, a killer made of fear.

Text messages from faction contacts reveal that the Bogeymen are a Dying Race, having once been found in every closet and under every bed up until Secret Worlders started rooting them out; however, at first it's not certain how this particular Bogeyman decided to take up residence at the park. It turns out that he's actually Nathaniel Winter, the millionaire behind the park's construction; having discovered a Place of Power which he could use to imbue himself with magical powers and immortality, he built the park there as part of a bizarre scheme to unlock the power by harnessing the joy of park guests; it worked... but the power he unlocked transformed him into a Bogeyman.

At night, something comes out of the closet and frightens him, stealing his teddy bear in the process. Much later, when he walks down into the basement to find a missing exterminator, he and his parents come under direct attack by ferocious vampires.

The monsters sadistically pretend for a moment that this has worked, then laugh and start pounding on the blanket with baseball bats. In another sketch, a father gets tired of his son complaining there's a Boogeyman and asking for a glass of water, so he hides in the closet without the kid knowing to prove there is no Boogeyman. To his horror, he finds out the real reason his son needs a glass of water is because he plays very...naughty games with his teddy bear. One sketch has a monster realtor showing a monster couple under a boy's bed. They are overjoyed over the fact he scares easily and is a bed-wetter, much to the boy's, who is awake and hearing this, chagrin.

As an example, he pulls out an image of Jeremy's girlfriend Sara saying "Let's just be friends."

At one point, Buster comes out of a closet wearing a Classical Movie Vampire costume behind Babs, and says "Bump." In another episode, monsters who scare kids consider having to do so to Sneezer one of the worst jobs, and the unlucky one who ends up doing it becomes scared of him. Afterwards, he starts to think about going to night school to learn how to be a tooth fairy or an Easter bunny or "some other imaginary creature".

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_c0d7fd2e	comment	The stop-motion animated series Bump in the Night has as the main protagonist a small green monster called Mr. Bumpy that lives under a young boy's bed and eats socks and dust-bunnies. His best friend is a blue slime monster that lives in the house's bathroom (and is a bit of a neat-freak). Neither of them is scary, and Mr. Bumpy acts more like a traditional boggart (trickster) than anything else. There is, however, a scary closet monster made up of dirty clothes, with coat-hanger claws and a washing-basket shell like a turtle.

While there isn't a lot of bumping, there is a great deal of groaning, rattling, hissing and cackling. And think twice before you sleep in a bed to skip ahead to sunrise — a glitch can give enemy mobs access to your house. Imagine waking up, crawling out from under the covers. 'Time for breakfast' you mumble to yourself as you open you eyes an- TSSSS BOOM.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who has the Doctor fighting a few of these guys. Primarily in the new series, this being a Creator Thumbprint of Steven Moffat, but there are some classic examples too: "Fury from the Deep" involves a sickly adult woman stuck in her bedroom, becoming obsessed with a mesmerising knocking sound coming from her wall that appears to be causing the sickness. No-one believes her about the knocking and she's accused of being hysterical. "Terror of the Autons" features a being that can make plastic objects come to life and kill you, which mercilessly exploits a child's fears of their cheap plastic toys moving around when the lights are off. The Clock Punk robot under Reinette's bed in "The Girl in the Fireplace". Which led to this Badass Boast from the Doctor: The little girl in "Fear Her" has a horrible, booming-voiced thing in her wardrobe that she's terrified of. He turns out to be a drawing representing her (dead) abusive father. "Silence in the Library"/"Forest of the Dead": The Vashta Nerada. They're beings made of pure shadow (or, at least, manifest themselves that way), and are, according to the Doctor, the reason most intelligent species have a few of the dark. The shapeshifting alien criminal behind the crack in Amy's wall in "The Eleventh Hour". "Night Terrors" is based entirely around an odd twist on this trope, as the Things Going Bump are the result of an omniphobic kid unknowingly being a very powerful Reality Warper. In "Listen", the Doctor conjectures that there is a species perfectly evolved to hide from view, and that all your fears of the dark, your dreams of something under the bed, your tendency to talk out loud when you know you're alone, come from your peripheral sense of these creatures that are around you all the time. He claims that this is why everyone has the 'same dream' of something grabbing you from under your bed. He's wrong. Or maybe he's right.

Since they're servants of the Lord of Terror, they're one of the few monsters in the original game that match the theme of the Demon Lord they're assigned to. In practice, they're bug-eyed humanoid monsters that stay invisible until they're right next to you, which can be pretty scary.

There are a couple of ways to detect its presence — a Gengar in your shadow can be spotted by the sudden chill its life-draining causes, or by seeing your shadow overtake you in the middle of the night. Sometimes, you can just flat-out spot its leer floating in the darkness. Its Pokedex entry from Pokemon Sun is particularly chilling.

Unfortunately, Sera has very real things that go bump (and bite and eat): ravenous little nocturnal fliers called Kryll. Anyone caught alone in pitch darkness on Sera will not see the dawn.

However, when children come crying about such monsters to their parents, the narrative that created the recursion demands them to assume that the culprit is a pile of clothes or the wind pushing branches against the glass.

Things That Go "Bump" in the Night / int_f6a54e75	comment	Kingdom Hearts: The Heartless started out as these, according to the first game's Ansem Reports. They lurked in dark places like the rarely-visited, sealed off dungeons under the rather gothic castle at Hollow Bastion. Indeed, in the prequel Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, the Heartless are well nigh absent in most areas (with the less deadly Unversed being the main enemies). Unfortunately, by the time the games take place, they've eaten their way out from the shadows and infest almost all outdoor areas, leaving the untrained protagonist Sora dumped into hostile environments with Things That Go Bump in the Night constantly homing in on him. Aside from Shadows, Pureblood Heartless (the ones not wearing the heart-shaped emblem) count as this in a way, since they usually only manifest in worlds which are closer to the Realm of Darkness. Since worlds like that are usually The Very Definitely Final Dungeon (or at least, the Disc-One Final Dungeon), they're a lot tougher than their emblem-wearing cohorts. And while the Emblem Heartless are mostly adorable and huggable, the Purebloods... aren't.
