Creepy Kid Tweets You Definitely Shouldn’t Read in the Dark

I don’t know why kids can be so incessantly creepy sometimes – they see things, they “remember” things, they tell you thinks, they sense things – but it seems to be something of a universal truth, doesn’t it?

So when @karnythia asked Twitter for stories about the creepiest thing a kid has ever said to them, well, people responded with some doozies.

People who interact with kids, what is the single weirdest/creepiest thing a kid has ever said to you? It's Saturday night so why not creep yourself out? pic.twitter.com/6pK92nOkmG

I’ll just be over here reading those under a blanket, yeah?

14. Well that’s not unsettling at all.

Maybe get him a train set to keep him happy.

Woke up in the dead of night, in total darkness. Thought someone had called for me, but all was quiet. Didn’t notice that my 3 yr old had crept in and was standing directly beside my bed until he whispered into my ear “I used to have a train-set when I was a grandpa.”

13. I bet his parents have trouble finding babysitters.

I hope she got out of that basement immediately…or at all.

A kid I babysat once asked me to play in the basement and when we were down there playing he said “When they put you in a box and nobody can hear you. Nobody can hear you down here either.” Then he bit me.

12. This is probably fake, right?

It’s still a pretty good story, though.

11. When you want to think it’s sweet, but…

There’s also a ghost right there.

My Aunt died when my niece was a month old. When she was like 3 or 4, she asked to go outside and swing so I took her. Her other swing was moving but I thought it was the wind. My niece started talking to it i asked who she was talking to & she said ‘Annie Mae Adams” (my aunt)

10. I feel like his future gf might need a warning.

“Everyone he likes.” Eep.

He was an only child so I was confused as to who tf “us” was. I called his mom to say we’re locked in the basement and she goes “I told him not to do that. He likes to keep everyone he likes down there” pic.twitter.com/yFKRjx5Faj

9. Excellent decision making there.

You can cleanse the closet later.

Putting my half brother down for a nap he goes. “I can’t sleep with that mean little boy staring at me” *points to the dark closet*
We didn’t take a nap and went to the beach instead

— Mama Kavery (@MamaKavery) January 28, 2018

8. So many kids tell some version of this story.

I wonder where they hear it, or…you know.

My daughter told me that the “place” she was in before she was born had a bunch of babies waiting to be born. Except they aren’t babies there. “They’re all 5 and they pick their mom and then they go in her tummy”.

— a bitch who didn’t ask you (@BtSquared2) January 28, 2018

7. He probably meant it in a sweet way…

Right? Make me feel better here.

This was my first.

At the store. We’d had a nice day, picnic at the park.

Suddenly, he grabs my hand, squeezes REAL HARD and says, “Mama when you die, I’m gonna make a little-you so I can keep you always. Like with your skin, and eyes, but probly not your insides.” All smiles.

— gin. (@showupforthis) January 28, 2018

6. Maybe it’s time to consider this who reincarnation thing?

Because kids seem to have boarded that train.

I had just bought my kid a white stuffed bunny. His response “when I was your dad I got you one just like this, then you didn’t see me anymore.” He’s named after my dad, who I didn’t see for 12 years after he gave me the bunny (we talked when I was 14, he died the next year).

— Rebecca Thompson (@Momof3gngrs) January 28, 2018

5. Kid knows how to take out the competition.

I’d keep an eye on that one.

5 year old: “can I marry you?”
Me: “no sorry sweetie I have a boyfriend”
5year old: (thinks for a second) “what if he died?”

— NATALIA (@naticas1120) January 29, 2018

4. Totally thought she was going to say “hair.”

Yeah, hide the knives.

I woke up to 3 yo kid #4 petting my head. I asked what she needed and she said ‘i wish i had a piece of you that i could carry with me all the time. like your finger.’ Haven’t slept soundly since.

— marie bourgeois (@mmbtox) January 28, 2018

3. I’m sure it was a coincidence.

But maybe call and exorcist, just in case.

This was the same week that flight from Malaysia went missing.

— Amani Hamed (@Amani_Marie_) January 28, 2018

2. What active imaginations they have.

Hahahahaha *looks behind me*

3yo alone in the tub, sitting to one side, starts getting visibly upset at nothing on her left side, “Tell him I don’t like that! Tell him to leave me alone!”
She started crying uncontrollably, “He won’t leave!”
(Reader, I got her out of the tub immediately.)

— Fannie Lou Hamer Fan Account (@jet_set) January 28, 2018

1. Just TRY to stop yourself from looking behind you.

You can’t. It’s impossible.

Once when my daughter was 4, she waiting for me at the end of the hallway. When I reached her, I said, “come on, kiddo. Let’s go.” And she said, “mom. I’m not waiting for you. I’m waiting for them.” Then pointed at the empty hallway and smiled.

— Judith (@writerjudithutz) January 28, 2018

I am dreading the day one of my boys busts something like this out, because eek!

Has your kid ever said something to you that belongs on this list? Please tell us about it in the comments!

16 Creepy Things Kids Have Said

Kids say crazy things, but before the internet, we had no way of knowing whether our child was the only devil in town or if it was relatively normal for our young children to make us sleep with one eye open.

Now there are Twitter users like Mikki Kendall (@Karnythia), who encourage their followers to relate the creepiest thing a kid has ever said to them – and get so many replies – so we can all be equally horrified.

People who interact with kids, what is the single weirdest/creepiest thing a kid has ever said to you? It's Saturday night so why not creep yourself out? pic.twitter.com/6pK92nOkmG

— Mikki Kendall (@Karnythia) January 28, 2018

It’s only fair, don’t you think?

16. They just seem to…know things.

If only everything they knew was this amazing.

Not creepy but… waiting for a phone call to tell me how many days/weeks my mother had left after months with terminal cancer diagnosis… my 3 yr old (not knowing diagnosis or about expected phone call) insists repeatedly “Nana is ok now”. Get call, cancer is gone.

— Kristi (@AverageRunnerK) January 28, 2018

15. This isn’t one of the most overtly horrifying ones.

But man, it definitely sent chills down my spine.

When my son was 3, he started singing a Polish nursery rhyme that my husband’s grandmother used to sing to all the babies in the family…she passed away before my son was born. We don’t speak, or sing, Polish.

— Alison Skap (@AlisonsBookMrks) January 28, 2018

14. Sort of sweet and comforting.

Maybe pick up some sage just in case, though.

When my daughter was 2 I found her under the table with one of my husband’s old children’s books, turning pages as if she were being read to. I asked her what she was doing. She said “reading with Grandma” my husband’s mother died two years before she was born. It was her book.

— Michelle B. Young (@MichelleBYoung1) January 28, 2018

13. Wow. That is really something.

I hope they did some research? I need a followup!

And this 5yo old little psycho gave her turn by turn directions for close to 45 minutes. We ended up 4-5 towns away at a dead end street with an abandoned blue house.

— phenetiks (@phenetiks) January 28, 2018

12. “His heart is sore, too.”

I’m crying, y’all.

My dad died a day after his bday. So on his bday we were all sitting n sad. My niece (4yrs) walk to my mom n said “grandpa is here n says don’t cry, his heart is sore too”. She never met him. Mom asked how does he look, she said “like Aunty Mapule”. Yes, I’m a copy of my dad.

— Amour’s Mom (@Mypule_) January 28, 2018

11. Yep, time to go.

But maybe get the name on the mausoleum first, for research?

Walking with my 2-yo in a cemetery by our house. She says “mommy, who is that man in the red jacket by the stone house?” She pointed to a mausoleum. There was no one else in the cemetery. “He’s waving at me!” She waved back. “He’s coming over to talk!”

— Kate, But Now 100% 2020er (@Ardeospina) January 28, 2018

10. Did she seem sad, or…?

That would have been a long 12 hours.

“We’re all gonna die.”

“I know sweetie. That’s just part of-”

“You’re gonna die tomorrow.”

— Millennial Pink Starburst (@ms_chel_ayyye) January 28, 2018

9. I bet she says that to all the mommies.

But seriously, so many kids who talk about their other lives.

My daughter was about 5 when she says you’re the best mommy I ever had. I said I’m the only mommy you’ve ever had. She looks at me and says no your the 3rd one but I like you the best

— Blockaflockoflames (@daahlingnikki) January 28, 2018

8. Time to do a cleanse.

Or just have a chat with “guy.”

On several occasions by son referred to the “guy” in our old house (“he’s big like daddy, but it’s not daddy”) He’d tell me guy was standing in the dark hallway. After no talk of it for several months, one day he suddenly looked up at the ceiling & whispered “guy is back.”

— Kyrie McCauley (@kyriemccauley) January 28, 2018

7. He seems too old to say random things.

I would have been asking some followups…once we were out of the woods and around other people.

I was hiking alone in the woods with my son who was 7. It was eerie quiet. Out of nowhere he says “The woods demand a sacrifice.”

— YOUNG MT (@MXTracy66) January 28, 2018

6. She was the first one to know.

Was she right about the sisters, though?

They would be born. She pointed to Nov. 28 on the calendar. Sure enough they were born Nov 28, 2012.

— J.A. Baum (@random_pirate27) January 28, 2018

5. How do you explain that?

I wonder if she told her brother…

1991. Worked at pediatricians office. Screening a 5y/o for therapy. He lived in the country, no friends, homeschooled, parents had no TV. Mid screen- he looks at me, says “Your brother saved my life in Desert Storm.” I went cold & pale… my brother was in Iraq

— Cricket (@cricket_71) January 28, 2018

4. Time for a trip to the library.

Because I would absolutely need to know and also have you read Wait Till Helen Comes?

…and said, “I died in there.”

— Beth (@bethatmama) January 29, 2018

3. Maybe she says that to all the girls…

But maybe she doesn’t.

I was was watching a prek class while the teacher was out and this little girl walked up to my belly pointed and said “There’s a little tiny baby in there. There’s a little baby right there.” I was pregnant but hadn’t told my job.

— Sue Ivy Carter (@KitaMargarita) January 28, 2018

2. Sometimes they just know what they need.

It’s creepy, but also helpful.

Ignored the fact that I was crying, held the kaleidoscope up to me eye and said ‘look, isn’t it beautiful!’ It was. She skipped off. Suddenly everything looked full of colours instead of the blackness that had been consuming me. She knew exactly what I needed.

— Sam (@sej199) January 28, 2018

1. I love cicadas and this is a great way to describe them.

They sound like summer.

Not creepy…kind of weird and beautiful. I taught a group of kids that included a little girl who was deaf and received an implant. She loved telling me all the new sounds she discovered. My favorite was that she thought cicadas were the sound the sun made until she saw one.

— Leslie J. Anderson (@inkhat) January 28, 2018

I am legit terrified and am just waiting for the first time my kid says something like this to me.

A Young Girl Saw Something in the Corner of Her Room – but It Didn’t Want to Be Seen

There are a ton of stories about kids seeing or hearing things that aren’t there, or knowing things they really couldn’t, that I think most of us have accepted that it’s one of two things: they’re either reincarnated, they can see ghosts, or they just talk out of their butts most of the time.

While the latter could certainly be true, there are stories that make you really consider one of the former options.

Like this one, where a little girl who pointed to the “bad man” in a dark corner of her room.

When her mother turned to look, the lamp fell and switched off, as if the “bad man” didn’t want to be seen.

Yikes.

Image Credit: Reddit

She said her daughter slept in her bed that night, and I can only assume she did the same every subsequent night until they found a priest or a new house.

The commenters weren’t much help, one suggesting holy water.

Image Credit: Reddit

And someone laughing that everyone is an atheist until something like this happens (we all know where to go for ghostly help!).

Image Credit: Reddit

And this person admitted he’d done exactly that.

Image Credit: Reddit

And yeah, we all agree that ghosts are real, right?

Image Credit: Reddit

What do you think was in the corner? Was it a coincidence? Are you serious scared out of your mind right now?

Yikes! I’m not sure what to think on this one!

It’s time for you to weigh in! Let us know what you think in the comments!

Keep the Light on While You Read These Creepy Comments From Kids

Kids say all kinds of stuff if you listen to them long enough – funny things, poignant things, things you can’t decipher, and yeah, sh*t that will totally and completely freak you out.

And if I’d been the one to hear any of these 16 comments firsthand, I would have been sleeping with one eye open until they grew up and moved out.

16. What the actual f*ck.

“My little cousin came home and started staring at all the Christmas decorations.

He said, ‘Hmmm. It will take 11 days.’

Eleven days later, we went out for dinner and an intruder took most of our decorations.”

—rishibhak

15. Definitely going to need to lock those up.

“When my sister was four, she walked by my bed and saw scissors.

She stopped, looked back at them, and then said, ‘You know, I could chop your head off with these. Goodnight.’”

—sleepyemaly

14. I would have crapped my pants.

“I was changing my daughter’s diaper in the middle of the night when my 2-year-old came in and stood next to me.

She looked at me with a big smile and, in a sing-song voice, said, ‘Mommy, there’s somebody behind you!’

The scary thing was that we were home alone.

—amandat4eebbd930

13. Yeah, no, anything but clowns.

“When my son was three, we were driving at night and passed a big, empty house with no lights on.

He pointed to the house, started waving his tiny hand, and said, ‘There’s a clown in there.’ I’ve refused to take that road ever since.”

—rrptrdl

12. I would have done some research.

“My friend’s 4-year-old had an imaginary friend: Jenna.

One time we were in the car and stopped at a red light next to a cemetery.

She looked up and said, ‘Bye, Jenna.’ Her mom asked where Jenna was going.

She then pointed to the cemetery and said, ‘Home. She lives there.’”

—tomb4adc7727a

11. That’s a very specific thing to say.

“I was a camp counsellor, and while running a program called ‘paint the counsellors,’ a 4-year-old leaned in behind me, started painting my hair, and whispered in my ear, ‘I’m gonna peel off all your skin.’”

—clairek49d80d9d5

10. I mean. Yeah. I’ve got nothing.

“When our second daughter was born, our 3-year-old whispered in her ear, ‘Tell me what God looks like. I forget.’

It freaked my husband and me out!”

—dawnae

9. Maybe it’s time to buy that cemetery plot.

“My daughter and I went for a walk through a cemetery while we waited for my son to finish his piano lessons next door.

She stopped dead in the middle of the graveyard, pointed at a grave, spaced out, and said, ‘This is where you’re going to sleep. Forever.’”

—jamiem43737f6fc

8. Oh my god no she needs to move now.

“I was changing my daughter’s shirt, and I got a feeling that there was another person around, but we were home alone.

My daughter looked behind me and said, ‘She’s hanging from the roof, mommy. Don’t look.’

Never have I moved so fast in my life.”

—alliic

7. I guess she has his number, though?

“One of my preschool students decided to tell us about the ‘man’ who watches over her from her doorway while she sleeps.

She told us that he gets ‘very close’ to her face, and when she tells him to leave her alone, he disappears.

So spooky.”

—juliannat411366c73

6. What age are we when we start to forget?

“We were walking outside and my younger brother got scared of how loud the church bells were and started to cry.

I had no recollection of this, but my mom swore that I comforted him by saying: ‘Don’t worry. I used to be scared of them too, before I died, but I’m not anymore.’”

—anoukvanderz

5. Well, someone hasn’t seen Toy Story. I hope.

“I walked into the bathroom to get my 4-year-old out of the bath, and she quietly said, ‘Mom, all my toys are dead. I held them under the water, and now they’re dead.’

She then whispered over and over again, ‘Dead in the water, dead in the water, dead in the water.’”

—krystalf48ee311e7

4. Yeah, I’d be careful for a WHILE.

“I was watching TV and my 5-year-old sister cuddled up to me and started to make circles with her finger around my lips.

She said, ‘A man is going to shoot you. You’re gonna die, you know. Soon…’

She normally giggles when she lies, but this time she was straight-faced.

I told her to stop, and she said, ‘It’s the truth. I promise,” which is what she was taught to say when she’s telling the truth.”

—Paola Landeros, Facebook

3. Oh my goodness that poor kid’s mother.

“I was in a grocery store and walked by a mother with her 5-year-old.

The little boy smiled and waved, so I smiled and waved back.

Then he said, ‘You should eat your friends for dinner. That’s what we do.’”

—c4a68e1c4d

2. That is not okay.

“My mom told stories about how when I was younger, I’d scream out of nowhere and point to a corner of the room and cry about a ‘scary lady.’

Five years later, when my brother was the same age I was, he started screaming and pointing at that same corner, mentioning a scary lady.”

—jandyd<

1. That’s kind of…comforting? Maybe?

“My cousin’s front door randomly opened by itself, and her 3-year-old son said, ‘Hi, Uncle Pat.’ Pat was my cousin’s brother who died 10 years earlier, but her son had never even been told about him.”

—shannono420b9214d

Nope. These are all a bunch of nope, y’all – why are kids like this?

Has a kid ever said something like this to you? Please share it in the comments, because we clearly all need to be more freaked out.
