Creepy things kids have said

Many children have imaginary friends - or are they really imaginary? Some of these stories are creepy, some not so creepy. Enjoy.


1. He doesn’t have a face
My son from the age of three always tells me about the “creeper man” who lives in my mom and dads bedroom. He brings it up after he visits them. I made the mistake once of asking what he looks like. My son said “Oh, he doesn’t have a face.”

2. “You’ll get used to killing”
A parent of one of my students told us in a meeting that she was concerned because her son (7 years old) talked about an invisible ghost who would talk to him and play with him in his room. He said the ghost was called The Captain and was an old white guy with a beard. The kid would tell his mom that The Captain told him when he grows up his job will be to kill people, and The Captain would tell him who needed to be killed. The kid would cry and say he doesn’t want to kill when he grows up, but The Captain tells him he doesn’t have a choice and he’ll get used to killing after a while.

3. Little girl ghost
When my daughter was three she had an imaginary friend named Kelly who lived in her closet. Kelly sat in a little rocking chair while she slept, played with her, etc. Typical imaginary friend shit. Anyway, fast forward two years later, the wife and I are watching the new Amityville (the one with Ryan Renolds) and our daughter walks out right when dead girl goes all black eyed. Far from being disturbed she said “That looks like Kelly.” “Kelly who?” we say “You know the dead girl that lived in my closet.”

My cat said "Lara", I said "yes?"

by Lara Whybrow

A couple of days ago my cat was outside my window, and he called me. He said "Lara" and without thinking I replied "yes?". But then I was like "Lara what are you doing replying to your cat, cats don't talk!" 

Or do they?

It isn't the first time my cat has spoken, nor am I the only one who has heard my cat "speak". In fact, do yourself a favour and check out Youtube. You will find tons of videos of animals making remarkably human sounds. I don't think they are just mimicking what they hear because if that were the case wouldn't they find the word "hi" a bit easier to vocalise? And the word "hi" is said far more often than my name. 

My cat has also said "how are you" on a few different occasions. The reason why I used to think it was a funny coincidence was that my cat would make these sounds when trying to cough up a hairball. I used to think that the sounds were due to the coughing until it dawned on me that the cat was probably coughing due to the effort of vocalising and the unfamiliar movement of the vocal cords while trying to speak. 

I hate to refer to the Bible, because so many people instantly shut down the minute they hear that word, but the Bible has a story about a donkey that spoke. It was Balaam's donkey and it's somewhere in Numbers if you want to check it out.
