Top 10 Creepy Old Wives' Tales

[@hannahschrenk7981]

One time my doorbell kept ringing for no apparent reason. Turns out one o the stray cats in my neighborhood was really entertained by it.

[@chariegirl]

Aww xD

[@hannahschrenk7981]

Stop saying this was cute, people! I was home alone and scared out of my mind!

[@hannahschrenk7981]

I mean, in hindsight I suppose it was cute. And we ended up adopting the cat (my neighbors had moved and left her behind, but she's a sweety). Still, at the time, it was frightening.

[@hannahschrenk7981]

***** I know! And ours is he cutest thing, too. She's fully grown, but really small so in some ways she still looks like she's kind of a kitten, and she gets so excited when you pet her that she drools. She's freakin' adorable. How could anyone abandon that?

[@qg786]

That is cute. =^.^= I would hug that cat all the time.

[@Purplepanic13]

"This was before of course, they found out how plants actually worked"

[@daniellelois6494]

What's wrong with that?

[@Purplepanic13]

Nothing! I don't judge!;)

[@daniellelois6494]

I'm so confused, is something wrong with it or not? xD

[@Purplepanic13]

Lol something wrong with what? Not knowing how plants work?

[@daniellelois6494]

But... he does know how plants work?

[@Katie-mw7pd]

My mom's side of the family is from Romania (Transylvania to be specific), and there was an old wive's tale in the village where my great great grandmother grew up that if you didn't name your baby girl after either your aunt or you grandmother, the baby would soon die. My great great grandmother was apparently not a superstitious person, because she didn't believe the story and decided to give her daughter a different name. The daughter died shortly after birth. The next time she became pregnant, she had a girl again and still refused to name her after an aunt/grandmother. That daughter also died. The next time she became pregnant she had another daughter and named her after her grandmother/aunt (I can't remember which one), and the daughter survived.

[@ladybug8495]

I'm also from romania

[@kokigami5492]

If you stand in a dark room long enough you'll become hungry

[@emmamccoy5440]

o my goodness, that is the scariest wives tale I have ever heard.

[@elainaanderson1517]

oh god not sleeping tonight

[@ChozoFS]

He's not lying!

[@suhanipandey4056]

Well I'm always hungry

[@gamerman7209]

chewing gum after midnight cause I don't give a flying fuck

[@Tea_Noire]

The "don't show your baby to the public" superstition was most likely made because a baby's immune system was not fully developed yet; taking it outside and/or showing it to people would increase it's chances of becoming sick and dying due to the pathogens in the air and on people. Of course, people back then probably didn't know this, so they invented the 40-day rule. Maybe after some trial and error, they discovered that the baby could stay healthy after being exposed to the outdoors after this amount of time. Or maybe I'm just overthinking this and it's just an old wives' tale.

[@kankerkaas5095]

A lot of old wives tales and such had scientific reasons behind them that people just didn't know of back then. Don't burn me on the stake for this, but the example from the Old Testament in the Bible about not eating shell-fish, was probably due to some people being allergic to it, but of course no-one then knew about allergies so they assumed that it was just generally not fit for consumption.

[@michelleparra3435]

I know right

[@darknessreigns76]

the one i heard was don't show your baby its reflection until its over a year old or it would die

[@oren1305]

Interestingly enough, my anthropology class was discussing the, 'Evil Eye', and how in some folk tales, a sign of the evil eye was envy; even giving someone a compliment or admiring something for too long was considered taboo. That's why in some cultures, parents do not show too much outward affection for their children; in case a spirit or person grows envious, and takes them away….

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

I like the chewing gum one. I girl in our town died recently because she fell asleep while chewing gum. She then choked on it and suffocated. The chewing gum legend/myth may help to reduce sad deaths like these.

[@TheEllieJoe]

And, of course, my freaking doorbell rang... Nice timing neighbours! Didn't scare the shit out of me at all..

[@bootmanbill2362]

i have a party so ya

[@kclulu]

I was paranoid as FUCK that someone would start knocking.

[@AsianJellyFish]

His voice makes everything calm but more intense at the same time

[@jackass123491]

I live in Hawaii. We don't whistle at night either because it's believed to invite spirits known as the Night Marchers. In old Hawaii, the eight islands were eight separate kingdoms, until King Kamehameha the first, also known as Kamehameha The Great, fought to unite the islands as one kingdom. The Night Marchers are the spirits of the warriors who died in that war. Whistling after dark is a way of calling the Night Marchers.

[@liz1422]

we don't whistle at night in the phils. too. The elders think it attracts evil spirits.

[@jackass123491]

Liezel Pinohermoso It's interesting to see how different cultures have similar customs and beliefs :)

[@gryphonnecrox2065]

Now we know where Dragonball Z gets that from.

[@thegayghost872]

Kame Hame Ha? That's a cool name.

[@HallowIsSmol]

Huh. I had no idea. I wonder what kind of wive's tales there in Virginia. That would be interesting.

[@amybelleaphane8403]

Pinky Pinky terrified the shit out of me when I was in primary school. My brother even told us that there was a Pinky Pinky in his school's toilet, hence they were dismissed earlier that day

[@daniellelois6494]

In my old primary school we were all convinced the very last toilet had a ghost in it. So literally no one would ever use it. If anyone new came we'd be like "okay just don't go in this toilet, it's haunted". It was the only stall that had lots of spiders and bugs in it. Also when I would go to the toilets during lesson I could hear weird scratching noises coming from it. #nope

[@delspreck4725]

When I was in 4th-6th grade everybody was convinced that there was a ghost in one of the middle stalls of the bathroom when I was in the toilets with my friend and when I turned around to talk to her while washing my hands I saw a little girl in the open stall... needless to say I didn't dry my hands after washing them 😂😂 I then told that to the entire grade and no one EVER went in ther

[@jackieblack257]

I'm convinced every elementary school has at least one haunted stall. At mine, the entire girl's bathroom in the old building was supposedly haunted by a girl who hung herself. Apparently, years later the older sister of a schoolboy was looking for her younger sibling during a school festival. She checked the newly reopened bathroom on a whim. The lights were out but she saw movement in a mirror. She called his name and stepped in. The door shut. Depending on who you asked the sister was either found in the bathroom hung by a water hose the next day or decapitated with bloody scratch marks at the base of the door. Personally I remember hearing creepy ass noises which I'm thinking were messed up pipes and probably the origins of the whole bathroom haunting.

[@kankerkaas5095]

I've heard of Pinky Pinky too, had forgotten about it now. I don't think I really believed it, but went along with it because everyone else in Primary school did.

[@phoenixme5665]

The toilet near my school canteen is told to be haunted..

[@MacyPooh196]

My great grandmother never slept in a bed because she said she never wanted to get too comfortable. The first time she slept in her own bed, she died in her sleep.

[@sidestreetsaintity1584]

Well crap

[@MacyPooh196]

Right?

[@ted_balls]

MacyPooh196 thats exactly what happened to my great,great Grandma

[@MacyPooh196]

Lana van Deventer Well, she died when my mom was 11 so...yeah I didn't know her. My mom always tells me that story. And based on how superstitious my mom's side is, I'd say it's true.

[@MacyPooh196]

Holy crap, creepy pastas gave me nightmares when I started getting into them. Now I'm kinda used to them.

[@ifraheemhassan7613]

If you get up at 3:00 AM at night, go to your bathroom without turning on the lights and say "Bloody Mary" 3 times while looking into the mirror, your mom will tell you to shut up and go to sleep.

[@crsh2007]

I think that (image of) gum alone is creepier than the Old Wives' Tale! :S

[@Milkypawproductions]

[@nickroda8228]

If you leave the door open once you find out that no one is there, good spirits shall enter. I bet burglars invented that old wives tale.

[@Mediamonsta95]

Upload this right before bed, that's a good idea Creeps.

[@ragecageofsneezingdragon4916]

My favorite old wives tale is if you find rose petals or leaves in your bed, especially under or in between your blankets, a lossafier (light faerie) is keeping an eye on you.

[@PYROBOY724]

When I was in primary school (1st grade) "Pinki Pinki" used to be an actual game that we dared each other to play, it was like bloody mary, but it worked differently. I don't remember exactly how it was played, something along the lines of going into the bathroom, closing the door and chanting something with "pinki pinki" in it. Anyway, what's scary is that a few girls in our grade tried the "game" and one of them came out bearing scratches on her arm after there was a commotion in the bathroom. I don't know if they faked it, but all the juniors were too afraid to go to the bathroom alone for a few months after that. (Happened in South Africa BTW)

[@SkylarSkyP]

I've grown up around rural places living on the plains. And around the closest community they tell us not to whistle around dark. This doesn't just pertain to kids either, because when you do, sometimes the spirits will whistle back.

[@yusyed]

*South Africa

[@MoonOffSpringC]

No it's in South Korea

[@pinkmoon5579]

It's South Korea. The legend was formed during the time when the government was killing its people, so to cover it up they said that if you left a fan on in the room that the fan would suck out all of the oxygen in the room, hence killing the person. At least that's the very rudimentary version of what I was told from my boyfriend who studied abroad in South Korea for a semester.

[@MoonOffSpringC]

After 11 yrs (I was 9 to 20 in this home) my family had a moving company handling everything for a move from NC to MO, and near the end my mom asked me to see what was left upstairs. When I got to the top of the stairs, a good sized occasional table fell over and almost hit me, (1st scare), then I heard an hysterical laugh-track coming from my mom's room at the far end of the hall, I figured she had left her small tv on, but it was off, unplugged and cord wound and taped (2nd scare), then the closet door at the same end of the hall (w/ceiling panel for attic crawl space) swung open and after swinging back/forth a few times, slammed hard, followed by the laughing again (3rd scare - pee involved this time). I had been hearing and seeing stuff there for years, but these were the last straws. Ready to MOVE

[@stella4072]

I think as a very young child I heard of the bubblegum myth in Turkey, but I thought it was about the logic you might fall asleep and choke, and in the eighties (guess my age) it was natural gum from a tree without flavouring and so tough, not like Wrigley's gum, Orbit, or Hubba Bubba that feels like whale blubber.

[@Agasetiny]

I knew there was a reason I didn't like pink

[@daniellelois6494]

Mean girls just got a whole new meaning. You're not wearing pink, you can't sit with us. o.o

[@RekEStore32]

The one about sleeping with a mirror facing you made me laugh! Maybe that was made because the 'wives' knew it wasn't good for self-confidence to see yourself first thing at o' dark in the morning.

I just love your lists. Will you do one about regional superstitions?

[@blackmumbat20]

In my country Ethiopia, there are a race of people called the lalibela who believe they are cursed to wonder the earth and beg for a living in really loud voices. They believe that they will lose their arms and legs if they stop. Most of them have really beautiful, strong voices. There is another superstition where you have to say "I am grinding Mary's barley" if you hear a voice calling your name but there is no one there looking at you. The orthodox believe that it is the voice of the devil. The superstitions are endless here where there are many pagans who still believe in the old indigenous gods and pay tribute to them. My grandpa gave me and my cousins soul names in our language when we were children. So we all have two names. The one you see here is the one I use formally. The other name I am only supposed to give to people who are very close to me. We were baptized twice. Once in the name of Christ and the second for the goddess Attete at Horra. The ironic thing is that I am now an atheist.

[@blackmumbat20]

Gwen Edgett I just realized how ridiculous the whole thing is and that I had been giving lip service with no faith for a long time and admitted I am an atheist.

I lived for a couple of years in Mexico and there are a WHOLE lot of wive's tales down there.

And the morning my baby cousin was ran over, his grandmother said there was a black bird at her front door all that morning and it kept hitting her screen door over and over till she got the call that her grandchild was hit and ran over by a truck in his own driveway.. ill never forget that day... it was so heartbreaking.. he was only 2

Growing up I was told to never open the door if you see that no one's outside because your inviting a spirit into your house. When one of my relatives passed away my aunt's door bell ranged around the time of the their death and it happened all night. My mom said it was that relative trying to come home.

The first one.....Da fuq? They got something about gum, or did they not want people to fall asleep and get gum in their head? And what does South africa have against Pink? And crapping? Lol, I want a ghost in my couch, haha who whistles at night? russians hate people showing off babies, people who do that do get annoying. the touching hands one is just bizarre. I'm screwed when it comes to sleeping, I sleep way too much. Pretty sure the tale was made to get lazy butts up. I hope the future husband thing works, sounds fun!! and stalker-ish. The Doorbell thing sounds like its just asking to get robbed. Or ding dong ditch. The the open eye thing is creepy, the lack of light in the eyes makes me think the soul really left the body.

[@andytate3804]

dude. your voice is so creepy. you could literally read "Winnie the pooh" and I'd be scared to sleep. you're awesome man.

[@bootmanbill2362]

My grandparents on both sides were Mexican or Hispanic. They told my parents - who told me - that if you see a barn owl and whistle at it, it will kill you. It's because there's a bad witch that turns into a barn owl. Personally I like the little guys but they do scare the crap out of my mom.

[@jasminer4859]

Okay who needs sleep anyways

[@henrysodergren7807]

Oh great, I have to pee really bad but I have my pink panther shirt on.

[@kriadydragon]

South Africans must really hate pink.... and going to the bathroom o.O

[@bluessarah2208]

They said that if you die with your eyes open. It means that you want to see your loved ones one last time and if they don't they won't pass

[@Kyle-sq8qt]

[@LeeHarveySnoswald]

You sir, have a very nice voice, it would be soothing if not for the subject matter. But thanks for not trying to play it up and sound goofy like other youtubers in this work. Keep it up!

[@Rillissia3453335]

Just wondering, why didn't you upload these to creepsmcpasta channel? 💕

[@Asuki3905]

As a child in Greenland my mother told me that when she was a child, they weren't allowed to whistle when the northern lights were out. This was because the northern lights were spirits, and if you whistle they would take your head and play ball with it x3

[@noahwilson3809]

The "Meeting Your Future Husband" wife's tale is actually the original "Bloody Mary" ritual, however the true original ritual involves this: The woman preforming this has to have a hand mirror with all the lights out, walk backwards up a flight of stairs while holding the mirror and a candle. The mirror would either bring up an image of the future husband, or a skull indicating that the woman will die alone.

[@nalbritton2000]

When he said the one about sleeping with mirriors facing you sends negative energy, I looked around my room and realized I have two mirrors facing me
