25 Parents Reveal the Most Spine-Chilling Things Their Kids Have Ever Said

So I fell down a bit of a rabbit hole on a Twitter thread last night.

Lilah Sturges posed the question: “What’s the eeriest thing a child has ever said to you?” and Twitter users responded with their stories, each one more chilling than the next.

A similar thread is on Reddit, with thousands more responses.

Readers spoke of children’s eerie predictions, unexplained knowledge, and connections with people long gone.

Did I mention I was reading these alone at midnight when everyone else was asleep?

I quickly pivoted to watching “Friends” for some lighthearted humor before bed LOL.

I’ve compiled the most popular responses…hang onto your hats folks!
