Before all of our responsibilities start to weigh us down later on in life, we have the ability as children to let our imaginations run wild. That comes in handy when we transform a simple box into an intergalactic rocket ship or a zooming race car.
Sometimes, however, things can take a strange and sort of terrifying turn when adults hear something truly bizarre pop out of their kid’s mouth without any warning.
Suddenly, that sweet little angel who we adore seems a little more like a creepy child star from a horror movie. That, or you start to wish you could really call some Ghostbusters to give your house a quick scan. Who knows where they come up with these ideas? But they definitely leave a haunting impression.
Scroll through below for 11 of the creepiest things kids have said to adults — they range from scary/funny to downright bone-chilling.

1. Foreboding Artwork

2. Suddenly Serious
“My 3 year old daughter was in the bath playing with her toys with me and laughing. Suddenly her face deadpans, she looks me in the eye and tells me in a serious little voice, ‘Mummy, if you bit and ate all my fingers off I wouldn't love you anymore.’” — Likatiger
3. Picky Eater

5. Guilty Party
“My friend's 7 year old kid pretended to put me in jail. Our conversation went something like this:

“Playing tea party, little one keeps passing me 'cake.' I dutifully eat each piece she passes me.

“My 6-year-old nephew told my brother that everyone on Earth was a figment of ‘Jonah's’ imagination and that when ‘Jonah’ wakes up, we'll all disappear.
