SPOOKY THINGS MY KID HAS SAID

(April, 2022) BuzzFeed asked “What’s the eeriest thing a child has ever said to you?” Some of the answers:
– My 3yo, laughing early one morning when I woke up with him, “Mommy is flying in the kitchen.” My wife, waking up 30 minutes later, said, “I just had one of those dreams where I left my body. I flew downstairs into the kitchen.”
– I was showing my then 3yo son pictures of family. When we got to a picture of my father. My son said “I didn’t get burned.” My father died in a fire the day before my son was born.
– My daughter, at 4, was looking out the window and asked “where are all those people walking to.” I turned to look and she was pointing to an empty cemetery.
– When my son was around 4 or 5 he said “Do you remember back when I was big and you were little and we used to eat lunch by the river?” He’s named after my grandfather who used to take me to the river for picnics.
– When my son was 4, he saw a picture of the Abbey Road cover and “look Mom that’s old timey London.” When I asked how he knew, he said “Because of the time I tried to make a left turn but the train was there. That was with my other family.”
– My child was about 5, and when I was dropping her off at daycare she grabbed my face with both hands and said “momma. Be careful” with a very serious face. I got into a car accident about 10 minutes later.
– My daughter, at 4, called me into her room at 1 AM and told me she couldn’t sleep because she was worried about the boy in the corner. She pointed to the corner and said, “Look at his eyes, Mommy. I think he’s really sick. Can you hear his mother crying?”
– I was upstairs getting laundry together. My daughter was 2 or 3, she came in and looked confused. I asked what was wrong she said she said she had been in the basement with “the other mama.”
– When my son was 2, he was playing in his room, when I hear him say, “Sorry, you can’t live here. You were never alive Emma.” The freakiest thing about that was I miscarried his twin, that I had picked the name Emma for.
– Me and my friend we’re getting ready for a Halloween dance at our school and had fake blood on and my 3-year-old brother told us we looked like “Tommy.” We asked who Tommy was and where he lived and he said “the guy in there” and pointed straight into my mirror.
– Child, age 4: I remember being born. Us Parents: Really? Child: It was dark like in a suitcase and then it was unzipped and it was too bright! Parents: Ladies & gentlemen, it was in fact a C-section.
