40 Of The Eeriest Things Kids Have Ever Said To People That Sent Chills Down Their Spines
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!
Psst! After you’re done reading this article, check out our previous ones with kids saying the most spine-chilling things and parents realizing their little ones are downright creepy.

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.

Anyone interested in this should read a book called "Soul Survivor" it's about a boy called James Leininger who, at age two, started having night terrors about crashing in a burning plane. The information he gave was found to match the details of a real life pilot James Huston who was killed fighting against the Japanese in WWII. I also found this when I was checking the names. https://med.virginia.edu/perceptual-studies/wp-content/uploads/sites/360/2017/04/REI42-Tucker-James-LeiningerPIIS1550830716000331.pdf

This was made into a tv movie and is what changed my view on all of that sort of thing! Great recommendation. There are things that little one knew that would be IMPOSSIBLE for him to know...things even the adults in his life had no clue about. It blew my mind.

Am I the only one who thinks this kid was exposed to some kind of war documentary when he was very young and it got stuck in his head? Surely I can't be the only Panda who doesn't believe in souls and reincarnation...
Mika N 3 years ago (edited)
I'm with you on that. I think often times adults don't understand how amazingly little minds absorb what's going on around them. If he liked and was interested in planes when he was a baby (not unusual I think, lots of babies like vehicles and vehicle toys), he would pay attention if he saw a movie/documentary involving war planes crashing. Maybe he dreamt after that he had been in the plane he saw. ETA I do actually believe we have a soul/spirit, but not in reincarnation.

I used to do that and at first it would freak people out. The closer I am to someone, the easier it is to do, even if they live 10 states away.
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.

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."

I think the mom jokingly said Hannibal in her message as a sort of reference. I don't believe she named her daughter Hannibal. For example, when I was a kid my parents used to call me Lucy sometimes because I was being dramatic.

Actually that would be Leatherface- Hannibal just ate people, Leatherface (Bubba Sawyer, Thomas Hewitt, and the new unnamed one) ate people and wore their faces. Bubba also gave Stretch LG's face to wear, and danced with her. It was kinda cute but in a "wtf" kinda way.

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.

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.

The summer of my 10th birthday we were living in what some people would call the projects. It was fun and I had lots of friends. My Mom worked graveyard so our cousin Jerry came to stay with us, it was short lived but cool. My Cousin Jerry is the Son of my Mom's 2nd eldest Brother WillieJames, he has passed on from a Train wrecking his car. So the morning my Cousin left I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth when I feel someone staring at me. I look in the mirror and its my Uncle WillieJames, my Cousins Father standing in the doorway of the room my Cousin had stayed in, wearing the suit he was buried in. Man, I ran down the stairs telling my Mom I just saw Uncle Willie in the mirror, we didn't live there past July, it was literally just a couple of months. I no longer look in the mirror to see what's behind me any longer when I brush my teeth🙄🙄🙄
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.

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.

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.

When my oldest son was about three he asked one night at bed time. "Mommy I like you better than my fake mommy". Me "who's your fake mommy?" Him "You can't see her. She tucks me in after you do."
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.

When I was really small, my Dad would go out of town quite a bit because of his job. 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.

I grew up with my dad being in the Air Force. When I was a toddler, he went to the falklands for 3 months. When he got back, after missing me taking my first steps etc, I didn't recognise him in person. I would always get a photo of my dad and say that he was my dad. Took me a while to recognise my dad in person, is the same person in the photograph.

I have twin daughters. One day while playing outside, one looked up at the sky and said, "The sky is cracked... and on fire."
My other daughter looked up and said, "Yes.... the people are screaming."
Then they went back to playing with dolls. Fingers crossed they're not predicting the future, everybody!

Those kids could've possibly had past lives as children who were victims of a severe volcano eruption that wiped out the town they were in, like Pompeii, they could've perished during the events of Pompeii and that was their brief re-enactment of it. The "sky on fire" part could've been the fireballs that erupted from the volcano and flew up into the sky before crashing down on land. Try watching the movie that came out about it, heartbreaking movie, it's definitely a tear jerker; but it gives you a better idea of what happened rather than just reading about it. Maybe then my comment will be better understood.

I think it's pretty obvious she's a friendly ghost watching over the children and family, she's something like a roommate, one that you can't see ofc but still one that you know likes you and probably even protects you. So I definitely wouldn't mind if this was me who experienced it, creeped out? F**k yeah 🤣 But only at first, then I know I'd grow accustomed to it and accept it; I know this because I would make the effort to. So I don't particularly agree with the comments saying "move" or "burn the house down", not in this case. She is/was harmless
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.

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.

Sometimes a wandering spirit will get attached to a living person. Children in particular often "see" other children as the spirit world is here, all around us. Oftentimes an older sibling's imaginary friend only disappears when their younger sibling is born. In that case, the baby was the ghost.

When my special needs son was 10, he had to have a very serious surgery. It was an 8 hour procedure and it was a pretty risky operation. We did not tell him these risks. Right before they wheeled him into surgery, he hugged me and said "Goodbye. Forever...". He made it through and his quality of life was dramatically improved by the surgery. Scariest 8 hours of my life though.

It's gotten to the point if you're walking down the street whistling or humming a song that you like, you're gonna receive alot of flak and get bitched out for offending somebody who didn't like the song and felt that they shouldn't had to hear it if they didn't want to. What comes next? "Whistling or humming to a tune in public is now BANNED to respect those around you who may not like your choice of song, or taste in music, so to set a good example and be kind and respectful to others, you must refrain from such actions as there will be consequences." I can totally see this happening within the next 5-10 years, that's the 21st Century for ya!

Not a parent, but one time my brother at around age 6-7 (he's 10 now) mentioned an old apartment we used to live in years before he was born. I asked him how he knew about it, and he said "Before I was born, Jesus showed me and said 'This is going to be your future family.'" Our family / community isn't religious at all.

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.

My oldest son used to have night terrors from 2-4… he also had strange reactions to helicopters. From the time he was 18 months old if he heard one he would fall on the floor and leopard crawl. His night terrors were particularly intense and very scary. He is now 27 and recently saw a regression therapist. Turns out the night terrors and his helicopter reaction were linked. He was in a war and got shot in the back whilst leopard crawling by a sniper from a helicopter…. So much anger was attached to his story that he brought it back with him this time around. Glad he saw the therapist as all his anger is now gone.

I don't understand all the recent censoring of words pertaining to death. Changing the word from 'died' to ''passed away', or totally blacking out the word makes no sense to me. It doesn't change the meaning or make it less sad. Death is a natural part of life that happens at some point to everything that's alive. Whether that time is very long or very short it's always sad when it ends. But it will happen, and trying to make it more 'palatable' or less offensive, doesn't mean it won't happen. I don't know why I felt compelled to comment on this, I just find the choice of censoring it very odd. On a side note - Georgie Porgie is from an old nursery rhyme: "Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie Kissed the girls and made them cry When the boys came out to play Georgie Porgie ran away". *Forrest Gump voice* That's all I have to say about that. :)

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..........

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.

That's terrible parenting, I would have tied your ankle to the bed. Seriously though if I had a kid that sleep walked I'd sleep on the couch or somewhere I could be sure to hear them walking around easily so I could save them from accidently hurting themselves. I'd have multiple locks on all outside doors and windows and keep sharp objects locked away as well. It must be terrifying to sleep walk never knowing where you are gonna end up.
Spikey boi 3 years ago (edited)
The locks make sense but tying a child's ankle to the bed seems kinda abusive. What if they wake up before you and can't untie themself because they don't know how? Also would it even help them at all? The kid would probably trip and hurt themselves all the time, and if the kid's room is messy, as they tend to be, they could fall on their toys, like legos or action figures in their sleep. That idea sounds quite flawed. And may do more harm than good. True I'm not an expert on sleepwalkers, but I feel like there are better solutions that that.

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.

Nathaniel, The idea of reincarnation has fascinated me for years. I was atheist for a long time and I’m Christian now. When I was atheist it made sense to me and even though I have a different creation myth belief, I still find reincarnation extremely plausible. I’ve studied a lot of psychology and other social sciences in my past, and there’s an idea related to Carl Jung‘s collective unconscious that makes sense to me. I believe, since energy cannot be created nor denied, that when we die, instead of our energy disappearing, it goes back out into the universe. It makes sense to me that these energy particles may contain remnants of our past emotions, thoughts, and feelings. So, if so if that energy ends up in another human being during embryonic development, then that child might remember some of those emotions, thoughts, and feelings, in their life. So, this thought is not exactly a standard your day and then reborn theory, more of a more spread out and energy diverse theory.

My son, mind you doesn't know how to read or write yet, asked my husband one morning when he woke up " Daddy, who died?" He asked him why he asked that cause he didn't really get what he meant. So, he said no one died of people we know but that people we don't know, die everyday unfortunately. When I came into the room, I grabbed my phone and I read a text message to my husband that a friend of ours just passed away that morning! Yeah, how did we process that....to this day, we don't have a clue why our son said that. Later that day, I asked my son why asked if someone died and he said exact words..." My brain tells me".

When my nephew was little I witnessed him ask his Mom, "Remember when I was your mother?" (Background: Our mother died before he was born).

When I was little I was scared of a giant green hand that I was convinced lived in my closet. No clue why but the night before we moved from Texas to Tennessee when I was like, idk 6 or 7, I had a dream that he would kill me if we drove to our new house. Luckily for me, something didn't work out with the deal and I had to stay with my grandparents an extra day then fly to Tennessee. All worked out lol

If only there were an innocuous word in English that describes what happens to you at the end of your life. Oh wait, there already is. It's DIE. How on earth does this word need censoring?

Boredpanda.com I am very offended by your use of "passed away". I find it just as terrifying and offensive as other three letter word for a state when body seizes to breath and all brain activity stops. For future please consider using "Liven't" while mentioning such state. Thank you.

And, with each stab, his grip on life faltered. He was liven't.

When my son was young he used to have fever dreams. One night we were all in bed asleep, dad was at work, he woke me up telling me quietly about all the people downstairs who were there to kill us. I'm heavily pregnant and quickly trying to figure out how to get all 3 kids and myself out of the window 3 stories up when I noticed his glazed look and realised what was happening. Took a long time to talk him round and a phone call with his dad who also does it. I went and got all the kids and they slept with me that night. Honestly for a few minutes though my heart was i my mouth
