30 People Share The Creepiest Thing They’ve Heard A Family Member Say: “Jaw On The Floor”
As sinister as it sounds, there is a reason a lot of horror focuses on families and their interactions. There is something about a “familiar” setting (in the most literal sense) that makes creepy and eerie actions and words hit that much closer to home. As it turns out, this experience might be more common than we might think.
Someone asked “What's the creepiest thing a member of your family has ever said?” and netizens shared all the strange things they’ve heard. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote the worst examples and be sure to add your own in the comments section below.

My mom would always remind us before big family gatherings "Don't go sit on Uncle Vern's lap. Don't be alone with him either. He has a history"
As a kid I was like wow that's kinda scary. As an adult with kids my question is "Why the f**k was this dude invited back?".

My step mom was an American, and every holiday we had we would go visit her children (grown) in the U.S. I was warned once that her ex-husband was coming over to my step brother's house and that I should in no certain terms leave any of the children alone with him. I was 15 at the time and for some reason I didn't quite get why she was saying it, until he walked into the living room and looked at me. I felt soooo gross/dirty and immediately understood why she said what she said. I later learned that this was the reason for her divorce....my poor step-sister.

When my cousin was 14, my uncle (her father) said her first boyfriend would be very lucky to have her as a girlfriend. I agreed, saying she was becoming a wonderful young woman. My uncle looks me in my eyes and says "yeah, but he'd also get a go on her fantastic t**s" 🤢

My stepbrother and his wife were visiting my bio father and stepmom, while I was temporarily living with them. Their baby wasn't too happy about being in a strange place with strangers, but somehow me and the kiddo hit it off. So I would often wake up when they asked me to take him during the night when he was fussy, babysat, etc. I adored it.
My bio father was "helping" me babysit, then suddenly his mood changed and he looked down at the baby, roughly pushed him over. I managed to grab the baby before he fell off the bed. Meanwhile, my bio father was chuckling and said "what are (his parents) going to do about it? They are staying in my home and financially dependent on me." He then made a faint like he was going to smack the baby in my arms, then walked away.
I left a few weeks later and haven't spoken to him in 30+ years now.

When I was 17, my alcoholic uncle told me to invite some friends over to skinny dip in his soon to be built backyard pool, and just not tell them he was in the back room with a camera, filming.

I was going through a divorce, I was staying with my sister. I was sleeping on the floor in her spare room.
I woke up and she was standing over me with a knife in her hand.
She said: "IT awakes!"

She blinked and turned and walked away.
I began to look for a different place to stay after I locked the room's door and stayed up for the rest of the night.

My youngest son was about 4 and playing by himself. After a bit i realized he was talking to someone or pretending to. I asked him who he was playing with and he said “an old man.” I asked him what the old man’s name was and what he was doing and he said “grandpa and he’s walking with his cane.”
My kids call my dad “Papa” so it was weird to me, and my husbands father they called Papa Launery. I asked him who is grandpa, what does he look like? And my son says “my grandpa, he has a red shirt and brown pants.”
It creeped me out but I didn’t think too much about it. I posted on my facebook page about the interaction and my grandmother posted a picture of my great grandfather who I never met in an old family photo, wearing a red shirt and brown pants. He had a prosthetic leg from the war so he walked with a cane. Id never seen that photo before and my son certainly never had either. My family is convinced he was visiting to say hello. Still the creepiest thing my kid has ever said.

My now 8yo granddaughter kept saying she's talking to Nany when she was 4yo. No one had ever talked about Nany and there's no way she could have known my Nany's name. My niece when she was about 4 or 5 said the "lady with the glasses keeps me awake." We showed her a picture of Nany and she said, "that's her." I firmly believe she's been hanging around since she died. She'd never leave her family behind.

As an undertaker I can confirm these kinds of comments happen a lot, sadly, while the intention is to try and offer some kind of comfort, it’s often the opposite to what one would want to hear. I hear “at least they aren’t in pain” or “they are better off in heaven” more often than I’d like.

Although I did feel a great sense of relief when my grandfather died. He was in so much pain. And had lived such a long good life. He made me promise I would give him extra opiates if he got too far along. Thankfully I didn’t have to. And he kept most of his dignity. Which I know was important to him. Not every death is a tragedy. I’m applying for Euthanasia if I get certain illnesses.

Rule of thumb: when someone is grieving their child, never say anything to try and diminish the loss. It never helps and will only make it worse. I know that people feel helpless when they see someone grieving and they feel like they need to say SOMETHING to make the pain smaller, but it's better to say nothing than to say stuff like that.

I can see this as a thing a clueless person says in the heat of the moment bc they don’t know how to offer sympathy and genuinely think someone will appreciate this. Is it dumb? Yes.

Pfft, I have a (related by marriage) uncle who would always joke that he would marry me when I grew up. Today that is seen as creepy, but when I was a kid, that was just his sense of humor. He never did anything inappropriate to any of us, and all the kids between him and my aunt are normal adults. In this case, he just had an ill advised sense of humor . It can be hard to tell anymore between that and a real red flag.

Children are horribly gullible and trust their parents implicitly. My son proved it yesterday when we went out shooting with his grandparents, and even though I only hit my target half the time, when I made a joke about shooting a bottle off his head, he grabbed the bottle and went to stand in front of the target! Even after I said it was a joke and I wasn't good enough for that, he thought I was just talking down about myself and encouraged me to do it! Don't abuse your kids trust! It's precious and something you're not likely to find anywhere else in your life.

To be fair, there was at least one children's home that should have been the model for others. It was more boarding school than children's home.

No, I am not an abductee. It’s just a bad nightmare.

My kid brother used to wake up and come to my room in the middle of the night to sleep there. One night I wake up from that nightmare and he’s just standing there at the edge of my bed.

Not just children, but all ages. In the days when a photo was expensive, the death photo might be the only one taken of the person. They're usually good photos because the subjects didn't move, which was the reason for so many blurry old pictures.

My step mum asked if she could take a photo of my deceased mum at her viewing. She was told no. She would have posted it on Facebook, a while later we saw other photos she had put up of a deceased friend, I reported her to Facebook but they weren’t removed 😡

Anyone else think it's odd their mother and the Walmart employee were looking at the pictures?

My little sister (toddler at the time) needed to have a small surgery. They were at the check in with the doctor and she was playing with toys. During a break in the adult’s conversation, they heard my sister have one doll say to the other, “this is my dad. He hits me allll the time.”
My dad did not hit us. The doctor had to ask a few very awkward questions to get it sorted.

This is why interviewing kids in any kind of important situation is a crapshoot

Depends on the training. IF someone is properly trained to ask only open non leading questions like " what did you do Saturday" and let the kid answer/explain then it's reliable. IF they are untrained or improperly trained and ask stuff like " where did he touch you" then it's a big mess that is unreliable.

When I was about 15, I was laying on the ground watching TV. My grandmother walked in, smiled at me, and said “Who’s this sexy little kitten lying on the floor?” All I could think to say to her about it was “What the f**k?”.

"Go back to sleep, there isn't anything under your bed".
"Hes behind you now".
Still haven't gotten over that one and shiver at the memory.

My (then) three-year old daughter, wearing a nightgown, sleepwalking into the middle of the dark playroom and just standing there until I looked up from my chair in an adjacent room and, squinting into the shadows, asked her what she was doing awake.
“Shhh!” she whispered, putting her finger to her lips. “Don’t wake up the toys!”
Then she turned around and silently padded off into the darkness, back to her room.

When my brother was little, maybe 3, we were all sitting outside on the porch in relative silence. The sun was setting and as it got dark he suddenly said in this super stoic voice, "Darkness...COMES.".

When my oldest was about 3, I took her outside to look at the blood moon. She studied it for a minute, then looked at me and very seriously said, "It means we're all going to die."

My kid looked into the dining room at night, light off, and said "Who's that guy with the red eyes?" Freaked me the f**k out. Left lights on for weeks after that.

Way back when my then three year old looked up from playing with whatever he was playing with and kindly informed me that 'the puppet master controls all the dead children', then went back to their game.
Edit: I was later told by my older kids that it was five nights at freddys related, eased my mind slightly...

I had to look up "Five Nights at Freddy's." Maybe I'm wrong, but is that something a 3-year old should be familiar with?
Kit Black 10 months ago
Why on earth would it ease your mind to learn that your three year old was familiar with five nights at freddy's???

Because they have older kids who are into it, so naturally the littlest would be tangentially aware of it.

I took care of my mother between 18 and 22. I was her sole 24/7 carer. I knew she was finally succumbing to her long-term illness when my friend and I asked her if she was going to be okay for a couple of hours so that I could get a gym session in with him around the corner of my house.
She said "you're going to have to call your aunty..."
That aunt had been long since passed away and they never got along.

Mom knew she was dying. Her confused mind explained it as going to call or contact her previously deceased sister

"You're gonna look reeeaaal pretty with those braces off"
I was 13, and that was said to me by my (then) 22 year old cousin.

Sounds more like they were just trying to say something they thought would be nice rather than creepy
Kit Black 10 months ago
Unfortunately, it's difficult to convey tone of voice in a written text. Most thirteen year olds are aware enough of the difference between someone awkwardly trying to be nice and someone being creepy

It depends how it was said. If it creeped her out, then yes, it does belong here.

This happened when my youngest was about 3 years old.
Twice when getting her out of bed, she looked to one corner in her room, waved, and said, "Bye."

There was a small room at the back of my grandparents house that myself and cousins were all terrified of growing up and would refuse to sleep in. All the adults would assure us it was fine and we were being silly.
When my extremely religious granny of dementia she kept talking about the things “going on in that room” and blessing herself. She refused to enter it 😭 knew it was haunted.

To all uncles and other adults: never compliment an underage person on their sexiness and never imply anything sexual. She won't feel flattered, she will feel hugely uncomfortable. It's not a nice thing to hear from an adult. You may think it will make her feel nice to hear that she's desirable, but it won't, you saying it will make her feel so horrible and maybe even really scared. Don't do that to her. And don't worry, she'll get compliments from her peers, she doesn't need you for that.

My grandparents had a split level with a single loft style room on a small third level, and I'd slip away to go up there every chance I got. According to them and my aunts anyway. Despite being maybe five, I don't remember that room at all. Its like a hole in my memory. One day they said they heard thumps and giggling, then more thumps, and found me throwing myself down the stairs, getting up, running to the top and doing it again. When my gran asked what on earth I was doing I said "They said if I fall down right I can stay with them forever." They wouldn't let me come over for a few months while they sold the house. Everyone says now they got a "Feeling" when going in that loft room where my gran stored her quilting frame and sewing stuff, but I was the only one to see or hear or interact in any way, but I don't have any mental image of that part of the house.

One of my uncles is a surly jerk and the other is a twit who believes in creationism, but at least neither of them has ever acted like THIS. Ye gods. As for my own "creepiest thing a family member ever said to me" that would be hands down my four year old nephew calmly and right out of nowhere informing me that "everything dies".
