I guess that was the only positive lesson that kids could learn from this movie. That the Boogeyman wasn't scary (the "Boogeyman" and Co. are real phenomena, they often acompany sleep paralysis or other night terrors, so it's good for kids to know that while these things do happen "in their head", they are not dangerous. Just uncomfortable)

Sorry for the rant, but I used to have terrible nightmares as a kid, I was a sleepwalker and I saw the "Boogeyman" standing at my bed and such.
So nowadays I'm really interested in sleep, dreams and all the psycholgical stuff that comes with it. I don't have night terrors anymore due to a similar "technique" they describe in the movie.
I learned to accept the images, but I also learned that they are not real and I should just see them as my brain trying to annoy me.

I learned Lucid Dreaming and whenever such a gruesome nightmare appeared I twisted it into something dumb.
Like, the monster would trip and fall or just start to dance like an idiot.

I sleep like a baby nowadays :)
