Jamie Wilke - Owner of Monster Guard

As a child, I was afraid of the dark, ghosts and different noises that I would hear in my restless nights. I would wake up my parents on a regular basis and either end up in bed with them, or my father would sleep on the floor in my room. My vivid imagination was a curse to me at night....... Until that very same imagination rescued me. I went to a neighbor's garage sale one summer, when I was around 10, where I discovered something that changed my life.

They had a penny box, full of useless odds and ends that you could buy for 1ยข. From underneath some old yarn, clothespins and some string, I saw a furry gray reaching out to me .My curiosity got the better of me and I dug out the creature the arm was attached to It was an old, beat up stuffed animal, that still slightly resembled the monkey it had once been. It had a missing eye, it's once happy smile now twisted into what looked like a menacing snarl and it had random tufts of stuffing sticking out of some bald spots where fur had once been. What I had found was a once very much loved stuffed monkey, but now was a monster. I knew if somebody had loved him that much, that there was NO WAY that he was a bad monster .....no, no... What I had discovered was the very first Monster Guard, and I knew it. I paid the penny and took my new friend home with me, believing that it possessed some type of magic that would guard me at night.

And it worked. I named him Mokee and called him my Monster Guard, because the best way to fight ghosts and monsters was with another monster. I had NO problems sleeping at night anymore, thanks to my Monster Guard.
