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.

Get ready for weird questions and odd statements about the spirit world because we have collected some of the most mysterious stories found online.

"Mommy, will you ever hurt me with a knife" I told her no. She followed up with "ok good. I know some moms do that" she was 3 when this happened. She had never seen videos or anything that showed child abuse, so I'm not sure how she was aware that some parents hurt their kids. Shes also never been abused by anyone.

My special needs son has made so many comments about keeping my body when I [pass away], I've considered specifically putting info into the will to make sure it doesn't ever happen.

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.

I was asking my 3-year-old if he remembered being born then I asked him if he remembered what happened before he was born. Without missing a beat or any prompting from me other than the question he goes "I was in a helicopter that go round and round and round then BOOM into the ground!"

My oldest daughter occasionally sleep walks. A few weeks ago she came out of her room and into the living room where me and the wife were watching tv. I asked her what was wrong and all she said was 'The rabbits won't stop screaming. '. Then she turned around and went back to her room. Kinda creeped me and the missus out a bit.

A kid once sat near a camp fire and seemed to be lost in thoughts. I asked what he is thinking about. This 6 yr old said "I wish I was high up in space and the whole world was on fire. That would be beautiful."

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.

About 3 am I wake to find my 6 year old son just standing next to my side of the bed staring at me motionless. It was a very tense moment up to the point I asked him very easily "you ok son??"
He then came back with "I cant sleep" but I still wonder how long he stood there before I woke....

Looked over to see what my five-year-old niece was drawing. I was almost too afraid to ask who it was. "A girl that cries" is all she told me. I didn't want to know if it was in our house.

My 5yo told me a story that went something like this: He said that Georgey-Porgery doesn’t come around anymore. I asked who Georgey-Porgey was he said “Georgey-Porgey is the man who comes in here at night. He said it’s not good to bang on walls, if you bang on walls all the beetles will fall onto your face and in your eyes and your mouth. Georgey-porgy and doctor Mecha are [deceased]. When you’re [deceased] you’re not anywhere anymore, dr Mecha says it’s really important not to [pass away], so don’t [pass away] ok?”

My eldest was roughly three at the time. She was (and still is) into My Little Pony and as such had a bunch of tiny little ponies to play with. I can fit half a dozen or so in my hand. Anyway, she also had a kitchen she would like to play with. I walk up to her and she's got some of her ponies in a frying pan on the kitchen's stove top. I ask her what she's doing and she looks right at me and says "These ponies are bacon now." Oh boy.

My one year old will point to a spot on the ceiling, say awwww, make grabby hands towards it then begin tracking whatever it is she sees and blowing kisses at it. I'm pretty sure it's satan. Nothing good lives on the ceiling

Not my kid, but a neighbor. Maybe 7-8 years old.
"Hey Mr. Soomuchcoffee, whatcha doin!?"
"Bringing in groceries dude."
"Can I come inside your house?"
"Oh, nah buddy. I'm busy, and your mom would wonder where you went, I don't think she'd like that too much."
"You mean I really can't?"
"Yeah bud. Sorry. Maybe another time when you mom knows where you're at."
"I...I'm gonna use my gun and put a virus in your brain so that you [pass away]!"
"I uh....ya. Alrighty then. Welp, groceries bye bye now!"
