Washington, Mar 4 : Teen starlet Miley Cyrus has revealed that she is still haunted by her pre-teen years when she was persistently bullied by "big, tough girls" at her school.

In a new book titled `Miles To Go', the Hanna Montana star revealed that she still has nightmares about her school torment where she was an easy for the mean girls because she was "scrawny and short".

Once, the bullies even locked her in a restroom.

"They shoved me in... I was trapped. I banged on the door until my fists hurt. Nobody came," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

She revealed that the bullies really started to worry her when it was clear they wanted to do her harm in the school cafeteria.

"It seemed like Operation Make Miley Miserable was escalating to a new level... They started cussing me and telling me to get up. I sat there frozen," she added. (ANI)
