i just dont know if my son is just having bad dreams, or if there is really some sort of portal or something in my house.
he has been talking about white monsters with guitars for about 6 + months now- he says they come thru a hole in the floor( there is no hole)- there is a place where his bed has rubbed the paint off the floor- and thats where he says they come to him at nite.- he says he is awake. and they are mean, have claws, and no mouths.... but today when i was asking him - he said they had little sharp teeth- so i just dont know if this is a little boy with a great imagination and bad dreams - or if there is really something to it.
he said they try to take his baby brother thru the hole, but he wont wake up. he said the hole goes outside to like an anthill, but its slippery with ice.
i dont think the monsters say anything to him- just communicate with the mind.
i get really concerned when he starts talking about them.- i have tried to find any info on anything like this - but cant.- anyone have any ideas-
we live in an old house, in central texas( the main part is over 100 yo) i have no idea if that has anything to do with it- or again - if it is just a reoccuring bad dream.

My first suggestion would be err on the side that there is nothing paranormal going on. Everyone is physically okay. Correct?

I can remember seeing and imagining all sorts of things as a child.

If he has been watching t.v. or playing any sort of games at length, I would be paying attention to anything that may be influencing what he thinks right now - friends that he plays with, what they talk about, books that may being read to him, food or medications that may be affecting him, etc.

A site that might be of help to you is the following. I hope that it is.

It almost sounds like a dream he would have from watching Monsters Inc. with the scene of the abominable snowman. My first thing would be to "play along". This helps with my daughter b/c she has terrible night terrors. Tell him that you are going to get some magic paint. (since he's three, I'm assuming he stays home, so you can't do it while he's gone.) Then paint the "hole"that they get through and say some magic spell or if you're religious, like I am, tell him that God blessed the paint, and say a prayer that keeps the monsters out of his room. Ask him if there are any other ways that they can get in and see if you can "fix" them. At Walmart i think they have little cans of paint for fixing up little spots on walls and such that are less than $10. You'd be suprised at what can convince a child if they think their parents believe it. We have magic fairy dust (really glittery powder makeup stuff or something) that we sprinkle on owies when they get hurt and when they should still be hurting, b/c I would, they feel better. I hope this helps. I actually just posted one that included my daughter seeing a white bear and she was awake. Weird coincidence, huh?

When i was a child of 5 i had dreams and sleep walked i had a freind in my dreams and while i walked around asleep she was a freindly women unlike what your son is seeing i asked my mum later on in life about this women and she had seen her too i am a beliver in all this.
Im sat trying to think of what could make it easyer for him and to prevent him from feeling sceard if he is?
Do you have a baby monitor that you can put in his room while he sleeps?
With where the paint has rubbed off cover it and let him see you cover it and tell him that they cant come out of there now. get a little dream catcher above his bed and tell him that this will trap all his bad dreams from getting to him.
I know some things to you might sound daft in trying but its worth a try.
Has he said that he talks to them?
i aint no expert but some little things like this may help you and if i can think of anything else shall send ya a message.
