for me it depends. sometimes i get scared of the dark especiallly when i have just watched a horror movie. so i sleep with the lights on. but if i'm sleepy i don't bother if it's dark because i'm too sleepy to think of any monsters or any boogeyman. hehe. =)

That is why I don't see horror films. I like sleeping with the lights off and I can't after seeing a horror film.

I prefer to turn off the lights, I always turn off the lights so that I could conserve enregy. Yeah, I also keep the lights on after watching the horror movie because the feeling is still there. Well, it doesnt matter if you turn on or off the lights, what matters is if you have a nice sleep. And there's no such thing as a boogeyman.

i was just kidding about the boogeyman and the monster thingy hehe. i'm just scared that after watching a horror movie i might have a nightmare. hehe. but if i wake up at dawn with the lights still on i would turn it off already because it's no longer dark.=)

Usually, I would prefer the lights being off. Horror movies do scare me when I'm alone. In the end, I really have to get some sleep and turn the lights off. Whenever I would be scared without the lights on, I would look around for a while and think that it would be a unique experience to be affected by something unnatural. Next time it won't be that scary because the damage has been experienced. I hear it easier to sleep when you are beside someone. It looks like you will have no problems with that at all.

yeah i have no problem when my brother's there since we share the same room. but sometimes he doesn't sleep at home. he sleeps in his classmate's house when they have overnights and stuffs like that.

I know that brothers can be fun to be with. It makes me sad when me and my brothers part ways. It seems we are happier in a group then apart. Time seems to strengthen and weaken some bonds.

i prefer to sleep with the lights off. i like it dark lol. but when i'm alone in an unfamiliar place, then i would sleep with the lights on. i just got back from a business trip and i had the hotel room to myself. scary! although i know it's nothing and that i shouldn't be scared, but when i wanted to sleep i felt scared and had to on the lights hehe.. ;)

I can't sleep when i cover myself with a blanket. it suffocates me. it's like there's lack of oxygen under it. hehe. =)

Hi josan181237! I can't really sleep with the lights on...and if ever I got scared from watching horror movies (which always happens), I just open my bedroon door a little bit and turn the lights on the hallway...that way, I could still see some light. Have a nice day and take care! God bless!

I sleep lights off. But when I was younger, I used to sleep with lights on. Because I am so afraid a monster will eat me whole. lol But now, I feel more rested when light off. I can easily go to sleep.

lights off! it really makes me feel uneasy even just a ray of light from the other room... and i cover myself with a blanket from my armpits to my thighs even if it is cold. And i really love horror movies and i watch it with lights off!

I would prefer to sleep with lights off. However, if the lights are dim I'm also ok with it.

i can sleep whether the light is on or off. it doesnt matter to me as long as my bed is clean. i can sleep soundly.
