Well yes. When I was a kid I would face scary things like that all the time that would come of my own imagination. Kind of like "Don't think of zombies.......awe shit a zombie." So I figured it could work for good things to. So think "How about a flame thrower?" lol hope that helps. And remember to be absolutely sure that's what you desire, no doubt. I find that it works only a few times with even the slightest bit of doubt.
