2.19 EXP | Kids Say The Darkest Things And Nightmares In Babysitting
Whether you have kids or not, you may have noticed the particular innocent and perhaps magical lens through which children often perceive the world. While sometimes this may produce beautiful interpretations of reality, or adorably naïve questions, other times it can produce some truly chilling moments.
From kids recounting past lives, to describing the floating creature on the ceiling, we explore the spectrum of creepy things that kids say, maybe even giving a glimpse into a hidden reality, only their young eyes can see.

When I saw things as a kid my mom gave me a water bottle with a sprayer n told me it would keep scary stuff away. I also had a cardboard box that I’d crawl I to sometimes which I remember seeing depicted in some movie once and being mildly perturbed but I digress, monster spray seems to work. I’ve used it with my kids and our whole line is prone to dealing with uh.. “stuff”.
The idea of this world being somewhere else’s prison totally tracks BTW.
