When we are asleep, our brains eventually go into a relaxed mode called “deep sleep.” In this phase, our bodies are fully relaxed and our breathing is slower. Dreaming while in deep sleep also happens but unlike when dreaming in the rapid eye movement phase or REM, we will most likely not recall the dreams we have in this phase.
Because of this, it is also probable that what we subconsciously say while in deep sleep is not known to us, unless someone hears us talk and tell us about it. Apparently, some people have had creepy experiences while sleeping in a room with sleep talkers. Here are 50 posts about creepy things people have said in their sleep.
This woman is fully aware that her boyfriend is Australian and his accent is quite thick. So when he talked in a heavy American accent while asleep, she absolutely felt the chills!
This guy might have sounded like he was saying something prophetic but in reality, he was just dropping the name of a character in a Japanese anime! However, I’m quite sure hearing him say that made his Mom’s heart skipped a beat.
The fact that there are actual cannibals in this planet is a totally unsettling thought. So, let me ask you. What would you do if you heard you heard your spouse dream about cooking people in the middle of the night while he’s asleep? I bet this man’s wife totally freaked out after he said that!
Does sleeping sometimes cause one person to be amnesiac? Or was her husband having a lucid dream when he asked her that? Whatever it is, him not knowing her name is still a creepy and weird thing.

That’s one weird thing to hear, even if it was said by a person who’s awake. Yeah, sure, let’s just assume he was being missed when his sister shouted that.
Sleep walking is already a weird thing to do. But, eating while asleep is certainly even weirder. I just wonder how he knew that he was really eating peanut butter?
Pennywise from the movie “It” is absolutely scary. His sinister, maniacal laughter is something nobody ever wants to hear in the middle of the night! We can’t really blame your girlfriend for screaming so loud, dude.
In college, there is always a story about a weird roommate that no one wants to share a room with. Apparently, this person ended up being with the dreaded roommate and true enough, something really creepy comes up in the middle of the night!
Stories about telepathic communication is not exactly something new. But this phenomenon happening to people while they are asleep probably brings the creepiness meter a notch higher.

Do you know a very serious person who never says silly stuff around people? Apparently, this woman thought her boyfriend was one of those types until she learned he says the silliest of stuff while snoozing. At least, she find this trait of his as hilarious and she even picks her own favorites!
This one’s not really something a kid said while sleeping, but hearing what her kids said about their imaginary friends made this mom lose her sleep. We all know kids have imaginary friends, and it’s a phase that almost all children go through. But having two kids having two imaginary friends that they both know is something really creepy.
Normally, people who talk in their sleep just mumble words and sometimes say things as if they are casually talking to someone. But for someone to shout in his dream? That must have been a really startling experience for his girlfriend.

This man’s dream of a terrifying corridor is something that belongs to a Hollywood movie set. It’s a scary image but some people might find this one intriguing.
The wife in this story probably did not know what to feel after this sleep talking episode from her husband. Should she be glad that there was no one in the dark corner or should she be scared that her husband is seeing people who aren’t actually there?
This father-to-be unconsciously voiced out his worry about his unborn child when he talked about SIDS in his sleep. It probably comforted his wife knowing that she was not the only one who’s anxious about their baby.
Having one nightmare is bad enough so what more if the terrible dream happens over and over again? Maybe her husband needed to look into the reason why he was having a recurring night terror because there must be something that’s bothering the man.
Having your own child is definitely not an easy responsibility. That’s probably the reason why this new mom feels overly protective of her daughter and even dreams about defending in her dream.
27. Maybe that’s why their relationship could never work
A person’s bedroom voice is described as their sexiest and most seductive voice. But, this kind of bedroom voice is different as she described her fling’s voice as “demonic”! That’s probably why their relationship did not work out.
This woman’s husband is someone who vividly recalls his dream and mistakes them as real happenings. He’s a completely different person when sleep talking and his wife absolutely find this trait of him amusing.
Being in the wilderness is an exciting thing. You get to be near nature and enjoy looking at the star-studded sky. That is until you realize that you’re also near all the wild animals in the area and hearing words such as what this Redditor heard from their spouse is definitely the last thing you ever want to happen.
Laughing in one’s sleep is not a terrifying thing at all. In fact, hearing someone laugh while asleep would mean they are dreaming a really nice dream. But, hearing it in a dark and quiet room definitely adds a creepy tinge to this scenario.
Your sleeping partner suddenly sitting upright to announce the arrival of someone in the middle of the night is definitely a creepy occurrence. And not seeing “them” when they have already arrived is even more terrifying!

I’m sure this Redditor’s heart skipped a beat when her partner suddenly shakes her awake and tell her to stop moving. I’m also positive she rolled her eyes real hard after knowing what her partner was dreaming about.
Some people don’t believe it when they are told that they talk in their sleep. This must be the reason why this Redditor’s father and brother decided to film him while sleeping. It’s just too bad he could not remember what he was dreaming of that made him say something really creepy.
The mystery of what why dream about some things are often not figured out. Most people believe that what we dream of are results of our imagination and hidden frustrations. But laughing in a sinister manner while sleeping? I don’t think I’ve heard of a possible reason for this one before.
This story would have been a normal happening if he knew how to speak Welsh. But since he didn’t, it gave him the creeps just listening to her indistinguishable words in the dead of night.
Too much stress can be really difficult because it can sometimes manifest its effects in ways that we do not expect. This Redditor’s wife definitely was under real pressure otherwise why would she spiders that are not actually there?
Sleeping beside the person you love is an assurance that when you wake up, the face of your most beloved person is the first thing that will greet you in the morning. However, this Redditor found it unsettling that his partner would ever stare at him that way. Seeing her with fierce eyes totally gave him the creeps.
This story is not really creepy. It’s more like a proof that when you choose to love someone, you simply have to find a way to make them feel your affection. In this case, this Redditor’s love for his wife keeps her from having bad dreams.
We all know just how adorable kids can get. They say the sweetest and most innocent things! But, this Redditor’s son was not too sweet when he said those creepy words. Or maybe he was just echoing something he just saw. Maybe it’s time to review what he’s watching, Mom.
Weird roommates stories are not new in a college student’s life. But, this one totally brings the creep-o-meter notch higher with his sinister laughter after saying such a scary thing!
43. What could he possibly have seen to say those words?
The problem with sleeping deeply is that you most likely will forget what you dreamed about when you wake up. That’s why it is utterly frustrating to find out what made a sleep-talker say things in his sleep because even he could not remember what he said.
They say drinking a lot of water before sleeping is not encouraged because if you don’t, you won’t have to worry about waking up in the middle of the night just to go to the bathroom. Also, hearing something like this from your spouse while he’s sleeping is one good reason why you won’t want to.
Now, this one’s totally creepy. It was like hearing a different person in bed with you and it makes one wonder whatever it is that her spouse was dreaming about.
This one is as dramatic as a theater act, except that it’s not an act at all. Imagine hearing this ruckus in the dead of night and realizing that it was just a person having a serious night terror. His actions are so real it even took a few moments before his spouse realized he was just dreaming!
47. What a weird thing to say in the dead of night
This may seem weird but it is perfectly normal for some people to talk in their sleep. However, this person’s statement is his own opinion and we can’t say we totally agree.
Again, you might want to reconsider drinking that tall glass of water before going to bed tonight. This Redditor probably had a long night trying to hold her pee in but we can’t really blame her, can we? What her boyfriend said was absolutely creepy.
The sleep-talking guy’s housemates must have had a rough night waking up to the ruckus their housemate has started. I bet they simultaneously wanted to squeeze him and laugh at him when they found out why he was shouting in the dead of night.
50. This story is the “mother” of all that’s creepy while sleep-talking
The way she said her plans in complete details was absolutely unsettling. And the fact that she found her ideas as “not bad” when she’s perfectly awake makes this story even more creepier.
Now, wasn’t that quite a terrifying read? As much as we think that these stories are really scary to peruse alone, we still find reading them a thrilling experience and something that we would do again, even if we say we don’t want to.
I sincerely hope this list of creepy sleep-talking stories will not make you lose some sleep tonight.
