My granddaughter is experiencing the same. I had my daughter refuse to let her see anymore videos. All of them contain a villain!!! Every single video and almost all cartoons. Also, bring him to his room, gather up all the monsters (both of you) and put them in a paper bag and throw them out the door. Also, spray the room with water to get rid of them. These were somewhat effective with her. Also, leave a nightlight on and keep soothing music on low. They need the comfort of soothing light and sounds. Hope something I submitted gives all of you some relief. It's a terrible thing these children have to go through - too many bad guys! Also, another friend of mine put a full-blown Spider Man in their child's room to "protect him." That worked like a charm. Good luck!
