Thanks to today's horror movies, alot of seemingly normal things children do, are super duper creepy now. My son does creepy stuff on the daily basis and in my head I can't help but think, jesus is my kid a medium or something. These are just a few examples of some of the creeptacular things my son does on a daily basis:
1. The Whisper- This one has to spook me out the most. I've always found it disturbing when children whisper. They have such sing-song-y voices and that paired with the low octave of the whisper makes it uber weird. I always think of the children singing in Freddy Kruger movies "One, two, Freddy's coming for you...."
2. Random Talking- I can't stand when Brody mumbles to himself. He will have conversations, and include pauses as if some unseen person is talking back. I hope to god that's not the case.
3. The Stare- This makes me shudder. He gets this completely blank look on his face and stares off into dead air. Not moving. Not blinking. Not reacting. Just staring. And staring. And he will keep doing it until I make some kind of commotion to get his attention. He's two, he doesn't have a lot of need to stand still. Makes me wonder what he's looking at.
I may very well be overracting, but I spend alot of time alone with just me and him and I have grown to be utterly freaked out when he does this kind of stuff. Thanks, Paranormal Activity, you have done wonders for my psyche.
I know what you're talking about! My kids do the SAME thing! One night, Lyra even seemed possessed. It was so creepy, I refused to go to sleep in fear that she'd be standing over me when I woke up. hahaah :p
