Kids being creepy

Ah, children. Bundles of joy, sure, but also champions of the unexpected, the nonsensical, and the downright creepy. This collection features 30 tweets from parents who've encountered the unsettling side of their little angels. Prepare for unsolicited pronouncements about past lives, hair-raising claims of imaginary friends, and observations that leave you questioning your parenting skills (and maybe your sanity).

Get ready to laugh nervously as you scroll through this gallery of offbeat pronouncements from the mouths of babes. These photos feature tweets highlighting everything from kids with an uncanny knowledge of things they shouldn't to bizarre bedtime requests that would send shivers down any spine. You'll encounter children referencing forgotten memories in unsettling detail, delivering existential pronouncements that would make a philosopher blush, and casually dropping hints about unseen companions lurking in the shadows.

Interesting bedtime chat with my 3 year old tonight: "daddy, I had a family a long time ago & my mummy was called Sochi & I was called Anke but then I died & now I'm with your family," Anyway, if anyone needs me, I'll be up cleaning the pants I just S t for the rest of the night — Save

My 3y/o is amazing for this kind of thing. She's a miniature nightmare factory. — Save

When my son was 4, he told me one night while driving home that when we die our "glow insides" (soul?) go up to the stars & wait until the right time then they come back to learn lessons with different people. He said he picked me to be his mom. — Save

My son once built a VERY lifelike old factory out of blocks and said "this is where I used to work when I was alive before". Aged 3. — Save

My niece saw some archive footage of the miners strike 'battles' when she was about 3, 20 odd years ago. She got hysterical and when her mum calmed her down she explained that's where she died 'last time' by a blow to the head. She described her other mummy in detail too. 1/2 — Save

My eldest remembered being born for a while. About 3 years old, he talked about "when I was stuck in the dark place & couldn't breathe. Then the big man made a new door." I had an emergency c-sec under general anaesthetic, the cord was around his neck. Surgeon was a v tall man. — Save

My 3 year old pointed to a photo of my elderly (deceased) grandmother and said, "That's me." It was weird because when she was a baby my mother was holding her and suddenly said, "Hello, mother" because a look had crossed my daughter's face that was so familiar to my mum. — Save

When my little sister was about 5, she gave us a very detailed account of her life as a scullery maid in Notre Dame, when it was a convent and not a school — Save

One time when my son was about 3, we were dancing with his feet on my feet & he said, "Mommy, I remember when I was big & you were little & we used to dance like this." The only person I can remember dancing — Save
