We tried to move him into his sisters' room in April when he turned 5 & it was a disaster! My up stairs is so small that I could see him in his bed from my bed! My ds has a very sensitive spirit (all my kids do & so do I)& we limit greatly what we watch. He is even scared of some of the Veggie tales. All kids are wired different & I really want to teach them to cope but first they need to feel secure. I was very stern at first with my oldest dd. It did not help her at ALL to try & cope with it on her own. Yes, I prayed with her & played soft worship music first. My 11dd has gotten much better as she aged but you know what? She has other big girl fears. So it is something I pray will draw them to the Lord. I do teach my kids now with gentleness & positive words. We pray & memorize specific scriptures. We play & sing comforting worship. I have a great CD called Seeds of Courage that is strictly scripture. WE ALL LOVE IT! We also bought Seeds of Faith & Seeds of Worship. Got them at CBD. They have blessed me greatly as well. My son tells me he uses it all the time during the day when he needs to go get something from another room. 
Now I have learned to look to the Lord & try to see what the He is teaching us through these tough times. For me it was a dying of the self. I did NOT want to be awakened by some silly fears over & over again. Now I know that is wrong & God has been showing me how to be more gentle & compassionate....even at 3am... 
Hope you have more blessed nights & know you are not alone.
