Time and again, kids prove to us that creativity has no limits. Their curious ideas, big hearts, and vivid imaginations that are stretched as far as the eye can see bring joy and humor to our lives. When children create entertainment out of nothing and see magic in the most mundane things, their crazy adventures never end.

But while every single mom and dad to one of these little rascals can agree that kids are honest, pure and overwhelmingly cute, those are not the only things they are capable of. Apparently, they have a darker side to them too. So parents, relatives, and sometimes even total strangers are taking to the internet to share eerie and paranormal things the little ones have told them.

Today, we’re taking a deep dive into the moments when kids casually said something spooky and gave goosebumps to everyone around them. Get ready for weird questions and odd statements about the spirit world because we have collected some of the most mysterious stories found online. Continue scrolling through and let us know if you have any similar otherworldly experiences to share!

40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines My 3 year old grandson has babbled about plane crashes since he started talking. He would reenact (with toys) a plane chasing another plane and as the first suddenly dropped to the ground he'd yell in a heart-rending scream, "OH NO WE CRASHED!" This was his first sentence. He did this over and over.

Early this summer he's 3 and I'm reading him a bedtime story. I pause & look up at him and he said to me, "Granny, I was a pilot, my plane was the Kitty Hawk. I crashed into the water when they shotted off my wing and shotted off my face."

It almost stopped my heart.


He looked so troubled and sad. I told him that he had done his best and I was very proud of him and that he was only a little boy now and needed to not worry about that but if he needed to talk about it he could anytime. I just hugged him.

I researched and Kitty Hawks were used by almost every country early in WW2.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines A few weeks ago I was getting breakfast ready for my 3 year old when he nonchalantly told me his Grandma fell down the stairs. About an hour later Grandpa calls us to tell us Grandma had fallen down the stairs.

    Also last weekend my 3 year old said my sister was going to visit the next day and guess who showed up for a 'surprise' visit...

    People often hear how children can unintentionally say things that leave everyone around them gasping, hoping their ears are playing tricks on them. But kids will be kids — very curious little creatures — and they will always sneak up on us with their surprising insights. And as you can see from these stories, the bizarre questions and statements that stand right on the edge of that muddy line between fantasy and reality are just a few of the ideas they come up with.

    However, while most of us see their mysterious wisdom as another way of letting their inner creative genius shine through, people who lean toward the supernatural can become easily spooked. Let’s be real, hearing about their disturbing imaginary friends or a ghost begging for help in the attic is horror movie material right there. But at least it makes life anything but boring.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines When my daughter was around 4 yrs old, she had a habit of waking me up by getting 4 inches from my face and staring at me until I opened my eyes. Once my eyes opened, she'd say, "Mommy your face is pretty. I want to wear it on my face."

    Ok, Hannibal, let's get some breakfast.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines My 3 yo daughter was going through the monsters under her bed phase. Lasted for weeks, and it was really wearing on her mom & me.

    One night after mom tried to put her to bed, she tagged me in. After 30 minutes, I grew pretty frustrated. In a last ditch attempt, I promised my daughter that there weren't any monster under her bed. She replied, "I know. Now they're behind you."

    After that, I let her sleep with us for a week.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines My 12-year-old comes up to me visibly shaken and said that she thinks she saw someone in the bathroom. I asked her to clarify and she said when she walked past, it looked like someone ducked into the shower. Mind you it was just her and I at home at that time, since my husband was at work.

    So, we have a Doberman named Rango, and I have him follow me to the hallway where the bathroom is. My adrenaline is pumping hard, and as I quietly and slowly crept to the bathroom. I stopped a few feet away from the door and looked at Rango. He looks at me and I point to the bathroom.

    I s**t you not, he f*****g understood loud and clear what I wanted, and he looks at the bathroom and slowly and carefully stalked towards the bathroom with the fur on his back raised. When I saw him react like this, I was CONVINCED someone was in there and my heart started racing.

    Once he made it over the bathroom threshold, he paused and leaned his body in as he sniffed the air, and one step at a time, he slowly crept in leaning and sniffing.

    Once he made it all the way in, he became more comfortable and relaxed and looked in the shower sniffing around, then he just looked at me like "Really?" and did that huff thing dogs do through their nose, and walked right passed me out of the bathroom looking somewhat irritated.

    But for good measure, I had him check the rest of the rooms just in case.

    For some people, children’s fertile imaginations can make them challenge their beliefs about ghosts and reincarnation. There are volumes upon volumes of theories online about how children can communicate with the spirit world. They are usually based on the idea that the little ones don’t have conventional norms fully “installed” in them and spend their days in imaginary fantasy lands. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

    “Children actually are quite good at making the distinction between fantasy and reality at quite a young age, so I don’t [think] they say these things because they’re confused,” Jacqueline D. Woolley, a psychology professor at the University of Texas who researches children’s evaluation and understanding of reality, told Bored Panda. She believes children often say things to find out what adults will say, as a way to gain information about the world.

    “Once they’ve made the fantasy-reality distinction regarding basic things, they need to figure out where unfamiliar or novel things fit in. Saying something that might seem eerie to an adult might be a child’s way of gathering information,” the professor explained.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines When my daughter was 4-5 years old we lived in a two bedroom townhouse. It was just the two of us (mom and daughter, her dad passed away). She always crept into my bed at night but never said why. One day we were cleaning her room and putting away laundry and she got very agitated and said, “Why is he here now? He said he only comes at night.” I asked if she was talking about Dad. She said, “No the boy with no hands.”

    We moved a few months later and she’s never come into my bed at night or mentioned him since.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines My two year old has a motion-sensored night light in his room. One night , he wouldn't fall asleep. He kept "talking" to someone/something and was playing. He hadn't eaten much for dinner, so I decided to get him up for a midnight snack. I made him some macaroni and cheese and fed it to him from a bowl as he sat on the couch and watched tv with me.

    Suddenly the motion light turned on in his room, unprovoked. Odd, but whatever. It turned off again, and we went back to watching tv. Suddenly, my son stops, and looks down the dark, empty hall leading to his bedroom. His face lit up and he says, "Hiii!" He runs up to the darkness, and starts babbling to it, talking to it.

    Then he runs back, grabs his fork, puts some mac&cheese on it, runs back to the darkness and holds his fork up to it, like he's trying to feed it. He started getting impatient that "it" wasn't eating, but kept baby talking it. Finally he gives up, waves and says, "Buh bye!" And then goes back to watching tv like nothing happened.

    It’s important to note that many of the eerie and spooky stories the little ones say aloud may arise from miscommunication between them and the adults. We might build our own interpretations and give much more meaning to their quotes, making them scarier than they were meant to be.

    When asked why there are so many theories about kids allegedly seeing ghosts or conjuring up stories about them, Woolley told us there are a couple of reasons. “One, I think people like the idea of children believing in fantastical beings, and so they pay special attention when kids seem to do that.”

    “Second, children are very good at figuring out what adults believe and at gathering information about the world from what adults tell them. If a child lives in a household in which family members endorse certain kinds of beings then it’s likely that a child will try to fit in by attempting to do so as well,” the professor said, explaining how kids have a tendency to be like sponges soaking up everything around them.

One night when he was at home, I went up to my Mom, who was in bed, and said, “Who is that strange man in bed with you?”

    Mom blinked and said, “That’s your Father.”

    Shortly afterwards, Dad stopped traveling so much.

    Then they went back to playing with dolls. Fingers crossed they're not predicting the future, everybody!

    When children report visits from the other side or point at obscure objects only they can see, you can’t help but wonder how they think of these paranormal stories. “They probably come up with these things because they hear their parents saying similar things,” the professor said.

    But try to stay calm if your little dreamer starts telling you similar unearthly stories and listen to the advice Wolley has to give you. “I think it’s always good to probe kids’ feelings about things — maybe ask them if what they saw was friendly, if they wanted to be its friend. Or maybe if it was scary, ask what was scary about it. Listen to your child’s feelings and try to work from them,” she concluded.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines Starting at about 18 months, my daughter had an imaginary friend. NBD. At first, we didn’t think much of it because she seemed to delight in its presence. She would talk with the friend, and play with him, and he was generally a protective presence although she said that he did like to get into mischief. After a few months of this, we started asking our daughter questions about her friend and she would give us very specific answers, like his gender, first and last name, age, hair, eye color, etc. My partner and I thought, wow, those are some really specific details for an 18-month-old to provide. So, we googled the name. Turns out, there was a boy who [passed away] in another state that matched the name, age, height, hair, and eye color of my kid's “imaginary friend.” Now, thinking this imaginary friend to be a ghost, we asked my daughter if she knew how the boy [passed away], and she was correct. Mind blown.

    After about a year of this “friend” hanging around, we summon the courage to message a group set up to memorialize the boy. We get a message back from the boy's mom. Turns out she has the exact same profession as my partner and, months before we contacted her, had planned on visiting the city we lived in. We ended up actually meeting her later that year.

    My daughter actually had this friend for about 3.5 more years and then he came around less and less. Every once in a while, she still talks about him, or sets toys aside for him. It’s crazy.

He made it through and his quality of life was dramatically improved by the surgery. Scariest 8 hours of my life though.

    Not my kid but nephew.

    He went through this phase of being absolutely terrified of going to sleep in his room (I'm sure all kids go through this eventually). I babysat a couple of times during this phase - we basically had to sit beside his bed and help him fall asleep, and he'd usually wake up shortly after you left the room and start crying.

    His reason?
    "The big dark scary man standing in the corner with red eyes doesn't want me to sleep."

    When my son was about five he started having night terrors. Eyes wide open, he would stare into an abyss of his own devise and *scream* with the chilling ferocity of hell itself. I would hold him and rock his rigid little body until he loosened back to sweaty deep sleep. What I never told my husband or the pediatrician, or even my mother, was that I was *afraid of him* during those nighttime bouts of what looked and felt like nothing less than possession. I was afraid of my own sweet child and wanted to run away.

He said it’s not good to bang on walls, if you bang on walls all the beetles will fall onto your face and in your eyes and your mouth. Georgey-porgy and doctor Mecha are [deceased]. When you’re [deceased] you’re not anywhere anymore, dr Mecha says it’s really important not to [pass away], so don’t [pass away] ok?”

    My eldest was roughly three at the time. She was (and still is) into My Little Pony and as such had a bunch of tiny little ponies to play with. I can fit half a dozen or so in my hand. Anyway, she also had a kitchen she would like to play with. I walk up to her and she's got some of her ponies in a frying pan on the kitchen's stove top. I ask her what she's doing and she looks right at me and says "These ponies are bacon now." Oh boy.

    "Hey Mr. Soomuchcoffee, whatcha doin!?"

    "Bringing in groceries dude."

    "Can I come inside your house?"

    "Oh, nah buddy. I'm busy, and your mom would wonder where you went, I don't think she'd like that too much."

    "You mean I really can't?"

    "Yeah bud. Sorry. Maybe another time when you mom knows where you're at."

    My daughter was about 8 when she asked "What's it called when your parents [pass way] and you go live with someone else,, who are the people?" I answer/asked "godparents?" To which she replied, "you and dad should get those". Huh? Am I [passing away]? Are you [passing away]? I'm confused and terrified!

    My 4 year old son had a habit of announcing when he had to use the bathroom. He would say "I gotta go potty". One time he makes his business known and heads off toward the bathroom. He returns seconds later and says "There's already someone in the bathroom". Now I do know for a fact that it's just the two of us home so the hair stands up on my neck. I ask him, "what do you mean". He repeats, "There's already someone in the bathroom".

    Now I'm thinking, is it someone "I see [unalive] people" or someone in a hockey goalie mask.

    So I grab the biggest knife from my knife block and tell him to stay here. I walk to the bathroom, take a wide angle to see in, nobody. Slowly and quietly walk toward the shower and pull back the curtain.

    Nothing.

    By now my son has walked around the corner and I ask him "where did you see the person?" He points to an un-flushed toilet and says "See, someone’s already here".

    His big brother didn't flush the toilet..........

    My five-year-old daughter was sleep talking in kind of angry tones. I went to go wake her up a little and get her back to bed more soundly. She was saying “ I don’t like you.” I kind of rubbed her arm and said her name and she sat up. Gave her a drink of water and asked if she felt better and wanted to go to sleep. She said super lucidly “ yeah, I just wish that strange baby over there would stop smiling .” Then went back to bed. Now I’m dealing with THAT.

    "Someday I will have a farm and I will have some animals like a rat and some mice. I will have a little pecker chicken with a little pecker thing and he will pecker my head and make a hole and it will tickle!"

    Visiting a friend's new baby and my son's first words were "When will that baby [pass away]?"

    I was watching my son play with his trucks on the floor and smiled and said "I love you" he responded "I love you too. I actually don't feel like [taking your life away] you right now"

    When my son was much younger he would talk about the woman who lives in our wall and misses her family. We'd find him upstairs with a pile of blankets just laying there and he'd say he was laying down with the lonely woman.

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines Telling this story on my Mother's behalf. Ever since I was little I've been a sleepwalker. I don't know when it started or why all I know is that my mom was the one that would find me walking about and send me back to bed when I was living with her. Apparently one night (I have no memory of the event my mom told me the next morning) I got up, walked into the doorway of my parents room, and just stood there, head down, while softly muttering something under my breath. Mom tells me she woke up and nearly had a heart attack. As she got up to help me back upstairs I sloooowly turned around and walked myself back to bed. Mom's locked her door ever since.

    A few month back. I had just put my 3 year son to bed a couple hours prior and I was downstairs watching TV. I hear him calling out, so I go up to see what he wants.

    He tells me that there is a ghost in his room. Hes not really scared or anything only ghost that he is aware of are the ones in some of his cartoons or during Halloween.

    So I just look around the room and tell him I dont see anything and that ghost are not real.

    He looks square into my eyes and say. "No Dad, Ghost went in my mouth, down my throat and is in my tummy. "

    Hmm. Ok son go back to sleep now. Cause I may not.

    Sleeping in bed, wife was at work, sense someone at the side of my bed. I slowly opened my eyes to see my 5 year old standing at the edge of the bed.

    "Whats going on?"

    "They're coming for us"

    "What?"

    He proceeded to walk back to his bedroom and go to bed. We discovered that he was a sleepwalker, who also suffered from night terrors (the night we discovered that one is another horrifying night).

    It’s one in the morning, I’m dead asleep with my wife in the living room reading. All of the sudden the baby monitor is blaring my 16 month old sons laughter in my ear, so I jump up, run into his room, and he’s standing in his crib pointing at the corner of the room and giggling hysterically. I just stared at him for a few seconds before I grabbed him and put him in bed with me.

    When my daughter was little she was crying and I went to check on her. She said she couldn't get the picture to go away. I said what picture? She pointed to an empty spot on the rug. I asked her what it was a picture of. She said it was my car on fire.

    I was leaving for a long road trip a couple days later. I never drove so carefully in my life.

    My daughter had a sleepwalking phase from about 3 to 6 years old. One night I fell asleep with my bedside lamp on. At around 1am I woke up suddenly to find her standing beside my bed laughing. Full on evil character in a Disney movie about to murder her stepdaughter laugh. I said her name and got no response. So I got up, took her hand, led her back to her room and tucked her in. She stopped laughing as soon as she was in bed, and was fast asleep immediately. She had no memory of it the next morning. I’m glad I fell asleep with the light on, it was scary enough seeing what was happening, would have been terrifying in the dark!

    40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines When my oldest daughter was in Kindergarten, she wrote and illustrated her first book titled “I Hope You [Pass Away] in a Fire.”
    She and her friends were really into Five Nights at Freddie’s at the time, so I guess you could call it a fanfiction of sorts.

    My son was speech delayed and through therapy learned a few signs. Early on it would take effort on our part to get him to use them. Lots enthusiasm, making the sign, speaking distinctly and lots of motivation. Motivation = Cheerios. And that boy loves him so Cheerios. Even then we were only getting a sign or two back about 30% of the time. No biggie, he’s learning.

    One night, after putting him down to sleep I’m upstairs binging on the Great British Baking Show and I hear him playing on the baby monitor. Not unusual, it takes about 15-20min for him to wind down. Some time passes, and I hear his energy amping up (bouncing, giggles, babbles, etc.) I pick up the monitor and press the video display and see him being his adorable toddler self. He sort of pauses, walks up to the crib bars and signs”all done” “bye bye.” And lays down and curls up with his stuffed animal. WTF.
