Most of the time, our popular perception of kids is dominated by silly, cute, or highly emotional moments, but we'll get a Damien every once in a while to remind us just how creepy kids can be.

Redditor u/GoldTNecklace wanted to know about the real experiences that people have had with kids saying the most unnerving things imaginable out of the blue.

Turns out, these kind of spine-tingling events are more common than you'd think.

Well over a thousand replies have flooded into this AskReddit thread, so we picked out the spookiest experiences that will add a little nightmare fuel to the fire. We sure hope you didn't expect to get any sleep tonight.

Honestly? Same, little kid

This is the last thing anyone wants to hear before air travel
