For Anyone Who Still Uses A Nightlight

I stand with you.

I get it — you're an adult.

You work and have a family and an apartment and you can go to bars without using a fake ID.

Here's the thing, no matter how adult you are it's totally OK for you to need this: a nightlight. Because the dark is fucking terrifying.

Don't believe me? Let me introduce you to someone who can back me up.

Guess who loves the dark: VAMPIRES. And I'm not talking about those pathetic Twilight Jergens body glow vampires. I'm talking can't-walk-into-the-sun-vampires-or-else-ill-fade-into-dust Strain ones.

When you get robbed on The Sims, it's always when it's dark.

It's not like you NEED to get a nightlight...

I'd prefer one shaped like Chris Hemsworth, please.

... But have you seen Darkness Falls, a film in which an evil Tooth Fairy kills a whole bunch of people and can only be defeated with LIGHT?

I'm obviously not saying that murderous Tooth Fairies with aversions to light are real because that would be ridiculous. But in the event that you find said Tooth Fairy in your room, it would probs be beneficial to have a light or two onhand.

So while you call me scared, I'll call myself PREPARED.

(And a UV nightlight could probably take care of any pesky vampire problems you have.)

All in all, sleeping with a nightlight can just make you ~feel~ more safe.
