CREEPY THINGS KIDS SAY

(September, 2024) Reddit asked, “What’s the creepiest thing you have ever heard a child say?” Some of the responses:
– “My four year old daughter says that before she was born she was a ghost, and when she was a ghost she would spy on us because she couldn’t wait to be alive and living with us.”
– “My son was four when he told us we were his second family. I asked what happened to his first family, he said they died in a car crash.”
– “My nephew told me the basement people want my skin.”
– “”Go back to sleep, there isn’t anything under your bed.” “He’s behind you now.”
– “I’m starting to forget the names of the people who live in my head.”
– “My niece, aged 6, told me that her creepily named dolls were made of blood and bones and mud but watch out! Don’t let them touch you because they’ll turn you into a doll! I turn away from the dolls and she says to something behind me, ‘No Ethel, I told you, do not touch her!'”
– “My niece was talking to her imaginary friends in the back of the car. She said it was a boy and girl about her age and they were brother and sister. Then as we came near the end of a road she said this is their home, can we drop them off here? We were laughing about it until we reached the end of the road and it was a cemetery. She gave a little wave and said goodbye as we passed.”
– *A 5-year-old asked me how old I was. I said ‘Actually, my birthday is next week. I’m going to be 34.’ She looked at me with an absolutely blank face and said, ‘Oh wow, another year. maybe.'”
– “‘I’m not scared of the thing under my bed. The thing under the bed is my friend.’ On further questioning, the thing under his bed was our border collie.”
