Hi, Jesus died on the cross so that we can be forgiven for our sins, so that we can repent, so that some of us can actually go to heaven and enjoy a relationship with God now and later.

Oh mom is coming home

I don’t quite understand the point behind the fundraiser... Legit what’s the point? It seems as though costs are covered by “taxes”, so what’s the money going towards?


Everyone has done this in their lives one way or another. It's like playing FNAF but with your parents, but you listen for footsteps, talking, or lights switching on. Pure horror.

All the sounds was from the fnaf 4 ambiance soundtrack even the dog barking 😶😶

@Yusuf Paderwala trueee, everytime i heard the stair creack that was outside my room i turnd of my phone and prayed they didint hear me

I remember how I had to listen to their breathing because I never knew if the door was closed, so I started to know even my family members' breathing patterns. A good way to also know if your parents come down the hallways is by turning the hallway light off because they always turn it on when they come down the hallway to your room.

Honeslty, ive become so used to this i can scence the quietest footsteps tru vibrations on my pillow to notice if they are coming or not XD

I know people with strict parents and usually the punishment is "no phone" for few days while my parents weren't strict my dad would beat me up whenever I was being too loud. He works night shifts doesn't mean he has the right to just punch me whenever he wakes up from me being loud as a "child".

So true, as a kid i was afraid of darkness and my step father was checking if i was sitting in the darkness at night. <br>Now this is my biggest fear 💪

@greek salad fnaf 4 in environment and fnaf 6 in gameplay. Fnaf 6 is literally turning every electronic off when you hear something approaching and then waiting for them to leave so you can continue. But the environment definitely feels like fnaf 4.

Yeah fr I do this everyday. I can even distinguish which one is my family members footsteps and actions

Because of this I've memorized the difference between my parents footsteps

and when you got caught playing gameboy under your blanket holy mother of god

My parents were like the ignited animatronics,  if they heard something or noticed it was gone they would sprint to me and basically do the ignited bonnie jumpscare

that is exactly how I always felt it'd be described

@lacuna poltergeist  I understand your point but the power, reputation, discipline and other good, probably exaggerated traits which your parents have makes you want to look up to them and that promotes growth. In my opinion if parents treat their children as inferior it probably means that he or she is doing something which makes it seem that the child is less valuable than the parents. And from experience just because a parent acts as if he is superior doesnt mean he deeply thinks this way. And and then you go and talk peacefully growing. Your parents have a moral obligation to make you socially desirable and ready you into the real world in whatever way that may be. Life is a war and if you are too sensitive and cannot accept social hierarchies that is a problem on your part. You would have good arguments against the social hierarchies but they were, are and probably will be present everywhere in some shape or form.<br>In addition to this here is a relatable fact: Most highly performing and highly successful people either have a military or a martial arts background or a tough childhood.

@Brain Steroids exactly, people should really start treating children and minors like people instead of subordinates or investments in general. Really fucking psychotic that that attitude towards them is so incredibly superior/inferior. <br>It's changing for sure as we progress in scientific research, infant & child brain development and child rights become more and more prioritized over "the personal right of the family" and the ego of parents or adults over a child's right to a peaceful childhood development.

I'll never forget the tweet that said "strict parents don't teach their kids to behave, they just teach them how to lie better."

@Plugshirt1 the original comment implies that it doesn't though

@Plugshirt1 the original comment implies that it doesn't though

Well if u perceive it that way then your mind is fck & twisted as if ur parents want u to do worst than u already did. You're just in denial that all! Facts! Ingrained it to ur mind & heart not in your azz!

I don't really think that's a 'strict parents' thing, I think that's an 'emotional/mentally abusive parent but you don't know it' thing.
There's a difference between strict (which is an acceptable way to parent) and abusive (which isn't an acceptable way to parent). The abusive teaches kids how to lie. The strict teaches kids between good and bad.
I have kind of strict parents and honestly I wouldn't have it any other way. It helps me stay off my phone. It helps me not get addicted to scrolling on social media for so long.

this isn't strict parenting though, this is just making sure your child goes to bed at a reasonable time

@Overdrive I said "too many"
At some point, you have to take a back seat and let kids have their own space, decide things on their own.
If you go around over regulating them especially when they are teen, it will probably make them resent you and produce other harmful side effects, like I said social media is kinda necessary to socialise these days

Thats something crappy parents would say.

Thats something crappy parents would say.

yes that can be true , seen it allot , but it depends on the spirit of the child.
Some children are black sheep and use their head .
 Plus they can be brainwashed by the neighborhood,

@Djc00lness It doesn't matter if it is all or some strict parents the difference lies within how each individual child reacts differently to those same strict parents

@Fresh Carrots Finally thats true, especially if theyre still young.

@Beeadora. ugh thats me... i grew up with severe anxiety because of my strict parents.

@Hell restrictions on social media isn't that bad considering a lot of them are negative for your mental health(cough, instagram). But yeah, you have to have a balance

@Overdrive there should be a balance and it should be reasonable, too many restrictions on things like social media can hamper a young teens ability to socialise effectively<br>Not saying don't be strict, but am saying don't be too strict for that can be counterproductive

my mother was strict and now I’m awaiting trial for a protest she doesn’t even know i attended. placing illogical restrictions on me as a child did far more harm than good

My parents were so strict I used to only get 30 minutes of computer time on the weekends, so you bet I got hella good at cracking the password and playing all night

Now, even as an adult I’m scared of doing anything bc I Dont wanna get in trouble. Even at work

Being on the screen before bed time is bad tho or not sleeping on time/or enough. Trust me your parents checking out if you are not on your phone is actually GOOD parenting. You should put your screen far away from you before sleeping.

@Conner McKay someone needs a good spanking still.<br>People like you are the reason there's so many criminals now. Lack of parental discipline.

@Fresh Carrots Finally Not when they are young but by the time they are in their mid teens it becomes a little ridiculous to still try and control their sleep schedule.

Making sure kids go to sleep and dont play videogames late at night isnt ‘strict’

I would never be a strict parent. Being strict only fucks the child up. If you want to turn your children into lifeless husks just to 'protect' them; please, do not have children.

I don’t have strict parents, but I lie to them sometimes. <br>(My parents would probably only really care if I was in danger or dying anyways so🤷♀)

@Djc00lness I think when you have strict parents you find able ways to go past their rules during your youngness, but then you mostly embrace them for the rest of your life. As long as those rules are logical albeit strict.

Asian parents: I literally couldn't care less, as long as you have straight A's


I did this almost every night, still do as a teenager. But the pure fear that rushes through your body when you feel your parents coming, so you hide your device as fast as possible without being too loud, you lay down in the most believable position and fake sleep. You can feel your heart pounding in your chest as your parent is watching you, as you try not to flutter your eyes or else they’ll know your awake. Fills me with terrifying nostalgia every time.

rapid eye movement is part of sleep and you are constantly moving your eyes during the rem cycle of sleep

Holy crap that’s long, hope you read it.

same except I’m in a bunk bed, and I have a basket at the side of my bed, by my feet, which they check the basket to make sure my phone is there, so when I hear them, I have to sit up, scooch down to the bottom of my bed, put the phone in, and lay back down pretending to sleep, QUIETLY, but I know that if my dad is going to the bathroom, he checks AFTER, so when he closes the door, I have time to put it back, and for my mom, she does both before and after, but it’s rare she goes to the bathroom at night, also she’s pretty slow at getting up, so I have time then, there are noises they make before going to the bathroom, vs them just waking up in the middle of the night, plus I can tell when they’re moving, as for my sister, we are across rooms diagonal, so she can just see from afar, but once she’s gotten ready for bed, weighed herself, tuned down her light setting, and said goodnight, she will still be awake with the lights on for now, but she doesn’t check the phone, as for if I do a small laugh in bed, I will blow out my nose as if my nose is clogged, so they don’t know I was laughing, and I do this almost every night, I go in bed aiming for 10:00pm, but you know, that aiming never works, so I usually go to bed after that, rarely 3:00am, but that’s max, and I stay up in bed until around 3-7am, then I sleep, I know almost everything that happens at night, foot steps that aren’t my family, flicking light switches when there’s no one awake, and no lights flickering, banging on our windows, men talking, but there never is anyone near or in our house, stomping in the room above my face, and such, and I know all signals that my family does without knowing, and yeah. if my sister mentions “I heard something at like 5am last night when I woke up” I hint at it by saying “yeah I heard that too” and we make jokes that I do it, so do my parents, because sometimes they find my phone in my bed, but I don’t get punishment, just warning, for now. but I make sure to not pass out and have my phone in my bed, and my fam thinks I still stay up, but they think of it as a danger for me, not that their mad at me, just caring for my health, but yeah I have a risky night haha.

even as an adult I still do it because I did it so much when i was younger

@griffy BUT coughing is normal ehile sleeping, while you can only sneeze when you are awake

good luck getting dumber with every lost hour of sleep

Used to do this with reading. It was the scariest thing knowing that the flashlight made a really loud click when turned off, so I’d have to not only get into a believable position, hide the book, and ensure that throughout the whole time I have the flashlight thoroughly covers lest I turn it off and they hear.

there was one point when i was doing this and got a tickle in my throat. i somehow managed not to cough, but my eyes were watering like crazy. the next day i looked at my mom's phone (because two can play at that game, bitch) and found she'd sent a text to my dad saying that i was crying in my sleep last night. i am now way too confident in my acting abilities

Parents in daylight vs night time is so different. They're the happy enthusiastic loving figure at daylight but at night time they're just an intruder Doppelgänger watcher alternate figure. Very different

WAIT SO U MEAN MY PARENTS ARE STRICT? OH MY GOD I THOUGHT THAT WAS NORMAL

The irony is that your eyes fluttering in your sleep is normal. But strict parents also tend to be uneducated in child psychology or sleep patterns.

Apparently my real sleeping poses were so weird that "most believable positions" (as I thought they were) couldn't fool my mom :")

Jesus Christ yes, it’s terrifying. And what’s more terrifying for me, is that I hide my device under my pillow, and sometimes when my parents think I’m asleep, they make sure I’m in a comfortable sleeping position so that I don’t fall off the bed in the middle of the night or something, since I have the weirdest natural sleeping positions, and I’m always scared their gonna check under the pillow. 💀

Yeah my eyes flutter even when I’m trying stop it so I have to sleep on my face


i remember doing this when i was like 10 i got caught using my ds past my bedtime and my mom took the ds and hid it on the shelf in the fireplace room. little did she know, i was watching her as she was hiding out. soon enough, when they both my mother and father were occuiped, i snuck out and retrieved my ds. i ended up getting caught again, and this time, she confiscated it for a week.

I have something similar, I use my iPad during bedtime I got caught sometimes but my dad doesn’t really care I use it during bedtime as it helps me get to sleep.

i did the same exact thing with my kindle fire but the second time they were so mad (i downloaded tiktok when i wasn’t allowed to have it) they threw it in the garbage. i got an ipad later, but i’m still anxious thinking about it.

@Floppa Logic it was the original ds, it was around 2004 or 2005, its a little hazy though, im alot older now and its difficult to remember.

I use mine to watch youtube rn cuz my parents dont know i can do that

@Nick B-rock mother, father, occupied, retrieved, confiscated.


living like this as a child made me memorize all of my family member’s footsteps lmao. i can tell who’s walking outside my bedroom’s door by just the sound of their steps 🤕

Every member of every semi-intelligent species does this.

It's not a sign of anything. If you didn't that would suggest you being less intelligent that basically every other mammal at the very least.

It's not special. My cats and random strays have recognized my footsteps and they certainly didn't/don't fear me like you're implying.

It's just a skill you have as an animal. Being able to detect friend from foe at a distance is a handy skill if your species intends to get to reproduction age.

SAMEEE
Dad: loud and slow footsteps
Mom fastest footsteps
Grandma fast footsteps
Little brother : HE'S A RUNNER HE'S A TRACKSTAR 🏃

Imagine you hear something you don’t recognise

The feet that drag for a split second longer is my mum's footsteps and the loud thudding with no drag is my dad's. Light steps with small drag and slowly in no rush to get anywhere is my brothers

@YourLocalBellis Maid…? I forgot those exist.

Like actual housekeeping, not how the media represents them?

saame. i can recognize mom because they’re light steps and has bracelets clinking, while dad is heavy and a bit slower

Everyone knows the sound of someone’s footsteps. Lol. I can tell which if my children vs my husband are walking. Y’all try to make yourselves sound so tragic all the time.

Yeah like how fast he/she is walking or the loudness of the noise of the footsteps

bro fr, but then sometimes some other person decides to wear slippers and scares the shit out of me when im playing in my room with my brother existant

That just naturally happens when you live together with anyone. Not really something special.

@MrFrogYeet many have maids in south east asia and sometimes in south asia

My dads footsteps are literally thumps that are so loud that I can just hear it through 3 doors

Bahaha, that's so true! My mother's footsteps are a fast "dum dum dum dum" with the sound of her pants scratching as she walks.

Almost everyone can do this, it's in the nature of the human. It's becuse of the pattern, like you notice the difference in patterns of walking and memorize them by time.

My dad walks slow and loudly, my brother sounds like a flailing cat, and my mum does quick steps in a quiet pattern with little interruptions.

@YourLocalBellis My mom cleans most of the house tbh, my parents get worried about losing large amounts of money if we hire a maid.

@MrFrogYeet many people do when your to busy to take care of your house/kids/pets you hire someone to take care of them, it's far more common then you think even I have one.

@YourLocalBellis
you have a maid?
but yeah, i relate to this 😭

Same. The non flip flop footsteps is my mom’s, the flappy floppy footsteps is my dad’s, and the loud footsteps is my maid


I remember this so fondly.

It was 11:27 at night on a Sunday, back in 2013. I was 14 years old at the time, and my parents were very strict on my electronics usage. This was the first night that I snuck into my parent's room when my Dad was downstairs watching TV, I successfully secured my iPhone 4 and returned back to my room. I sat there for about an hour on my phone watching YouTube until I heard my dad walking upstairs. The ominous creaking of footsteps slowly coming up the stairs sent shivers down my spine, so I quickly turned my phone off and hid it under my belly, and pretended to sleep on my chest. My Dad must've checked if my phone was plugged in or not because he approached my room door, which was closed at the time. I watched the door handle quiver in the dim red light that was being emitted from the TV and the door clicked open, very slowly. My Dad walked towards me, trying not to step on thr creaky parts of the floor, my heart was racing. It was quite literally beating in my ear. Hiding my phone under my belly wasn't a great idea because the very next minute, my Dad was feeling around under my covers, trying to find my phone. He couldn't find it, so he went back over to my chair, he checked. Couldn't find it. So he came back over to my side table next to my bed, went through my drawers, and couldn't find it. He was so close, that I could literally smell his roll-on deoderant and the heat radiating from him. He then pushed his hand under my stomach, and that's when his hands met the phone. He grabbed it, removed it, and just like that, he's gone. I feel under my chest, nothing.
The relief was incredible, but I wasn't happy that he took my phone.

I WAS BORN ON 2013 AND NOW MY BDAY IS ON 12TH MAY AND I AM GOING TO BE 10 YEARS NOW I'M STILL 9+

@aiyc that’s really good! Believe in yourself I’m sure you can do it! Although it’s no problem if you don’t wanna become one XD

@Unbreakify Then you dont understand the horror

this honestly sounds like a composition i'd be tasked to do for english homework back in elementary school

I read this at 11:27 PM, idk if that's good are bad.

Bro, that is absolutely terrifying, I honestly would’ve peed my pants cause if that were my dad, then I’d know the next morning I’d be in a <b>lot</b> of trouble 💀

One time I was faking being asleep while laying on my back, and I kept my eyes closed for so long, and when I opened them my moms face was inches away from mine with her eyes staring directly into mine. She knew I was faking and we laughed cus she scared me so bad lol

@hannaelle hiding it slightly under the pillow was good enough for me. I use my phone as an alarm and although I'm a light sleeper to every other little thing, i sleep though my phone's alarm A LOT. I keep it near my head to wake me up. My parents know this.

I always slid my phone under my back or just under myself
I had a hardwood floor and they’ve heard my phone hit it plenty lmao

@Nam_ Titties_02 the way you tell the story, this is kinda scary/creepy :) especially "hear someone breathing standing over watching me to see if i was really sleeping"

toe my case was even worse my mom would check the whole bed to make sure I am sleep and I litrally sleep right next to her and my phone is slow as hell

@hannaelle well damn, i always put my phone under my pillow and it works cause i know that she feels guilty whenever she ever wakes me up during a really nice long sleep so she prevents doing anything that could disturb my sleep, and basically trying to put her hand into under my pillow or just trying to move the pillow might wake me up so im safe 🧍♀

Bro, bro, like fr😭. Then you gotta wait a long ass time and slowly try to peek to check if they're going to leave or if their gonna stay there.😂

My dad and i whenever i stayed at his house i wanted on the top of the bunk and one time he let me, he got up to take a leak at some point (because the bunk shook and his head popped up) then i pretended to sleep, when he came back i opened my eyes juuust a tiny bit and he's standing there looking at me like some sort of deranged killer, and went back to sleep, i thought i was having a heart attack cause i could hear my heart beating literally out of my chest because he took the phone in my hand i fell asleep eventually. Still tho, didn't know dad could pull off the "I'm a stranger in your house in the middle of the night" vibe.

At one point back in 2015 my aunt shined her phone at my face to see if I was asleep because she would check for eye movement under the eyelids to tell if you was asleep or not. If you was alseep your eyes wouldn’t be moving around under your eyelids or twitching as much, so I had to master that shit down💀💀 room was in the basement and I shared it with my cousins so I heard easily in the middle of the night if a parent was coming down the stairs💀

Omg my mom once did it too and i got caught 😧

my mom once stared at me a few inches away from my face while i was sleeping. Worse, i was having sleep paralysis so i couldnt scream or do anything despite the shock and fear

My bed is looking towards the door, so every time she came in, i pretend to flip over asleep to see if she fully left my room

@Kris_KWAS standing in the corner? God, that's scary shit

@hannaelle ahhhhh I don't relate to this because I wasn't allowed a smartphone, which is how it should be. My parents weren't letting my mind get poisoned.

toe ooor you could turn the volume down/ turn off ur game then go in a sleeping position  ie. Sleeping on your stomach and hide your phone/small gaming device underneath you lol but that would only work if your gaming device is small enough or have a blanket cover you along with your gaming stuff

@21.lluvia I'd do the same thing but would caught myself falling asleep and I'm like bruh I still wanna play tho and there are times where I legit fell asleep from pretending to sleep just to make sure I'm in the clear lol

@Kris_KWAS Another horrifying example please I do not want this to happen to me 😭 that's very creepy behavior right there I hope this isn't a regular thing and your stepdad was just making sure you weren't up past bed time and not trying to pull anything sketchy. I would've been scarred for life if I saw that in my room at night, wouldn't be able to sleep in peace again for the rest of my days.

@Nam_ Titties_02 This visual is horrifying. Imagine if the person doing it isn't your mom. Then again I read a lot of home invasion stories, so this might just be me being anxious.

LOL it was even scarier when you’re not sure whether they actually left or if they are just watching you.

Once my stepdad walked in and I didn’t hear the door close but I was fake sleeping for at least 5 minutes so I assumed he just left. But I turned over and moved the blanket and he was standing in the corner so I pretended it was just a normal sleep movement. Very anxiety inducing.

@Naru 2007 for me it's the curtain in the room between us. Two that shit opening is the sound of horror

@Trần Lê Khả Minh when you hear your parents footsteps coming,, try placing your phone far under the bed, your pockets, or your drawer so your parents won’t draw any suspicion or smth. hiding it in the pillow is obvious 😭

but yeah true horror shit 👍

@Nam_ Titties_02 Mine did this too, I always hid my gameboy under the matress so she wouldn't think I'm playing. When she caught me she would suddendly yell very loud and I almost had a heart attack every time idk wtf she was thinking back then... 😂

My mom play asian scary mode, she stare at me silently close as possible to see my reaction... Then slowly reach her hand to my pillow check if there's any phone or not... True horror shit I say...

@Nam_ Titties_02  same my parents used to do these and i feel their presence so i tried to act in a fake sleeping position and stop the urge to continue playing 😭

My parents never did this but I always used to count to 500 just to make sure they were gone 😭😭😭

Stoooop my mom would do this sometimes! I would pretend to sleep and kinda cover my face a little. I would be so afraid to open my eyes so I  wouldn't get caught. And I would just hear her slightly breathing standing over watching me to see if I was really sleeping 😭💀


My most scariest experience was when my friend and I chatted, and suddenly I heard my dad's footsteps so I quickly pretended to be asleep, but my phone vibrated. 😂

I bet the belt scars are still visible on them cheeks huh

bro your mother would have heard, “Perrrfect,” if I understood the aftermath correctly.

I Thought I'm The Only One That Happned To Me

@Prateek Meena wrong place for that joke, here are just nostalgia and pure memories

@William Miller the thing vibrate when she's lonely? 🤣🤔💀

once i listened to music on the phone and when my dad came i put my phone into my blanket but the musics still on lmao

I once stayed till late watching anime on my computer and got caught being awake. I quickly hanged tab and lied about staying awake because of a project (that I did had, but finished earlier) and my mother just went away, apparently I got away with it. Later that morning, just before my alarm went off I woke up because of my door opening. I usually pretend to be asleep whenever someone comes in because I don’t want to have to hunt for the sleepiness again. I saw her entering in my computer and checking the historial… man did I struggled to stay quiet and not laugh maniaticaly because I just happened to be using incognito and she only found the project URLs. At the time my parents still hadn’t figured out computers, so they didn’t knew about incognito lmao

I am the unluckiest here probably...My dad was a software engineer and he knows a LOT about Gadgets and stuff related to it... especially the internet 😭

Invasive parents shouldn't be having kids

@Andrenate oh it’s basically chrome but no historial is saved. Same happens to website cookies and it basically is as if you never visited the site (only the router and yourself know about your visit)

Sheesh that's so creepy of her tbh 😨. Good thing my parents don't know how to use any gadgets except watching YouTube 😭😆

For the both that were asking, it was normal anime. I use incognito because I sail the 7 seas and don’t like website cookies


My parents almost never check me and my brother's shared room to see if any one of us are still awake, but it did happen to me quite a few times before so this was very relatable.

They stopped caring after a while though, so I manage to always get away with it. Nowadays they just stop by to tell us to keep the volume down or give us our laundries lol


I vividly remember hearing my heart pounding in my ear while I held my DS under my pillow and felt the ominous yet caring gaze of my mother burrow into my back. Good times.

I remember back in 2005 when I was still in Iraq

Hey a fellow Nintendo DS generation sneaky-gamer! 😀

lol me too, I can feel the blood in my ears


Reminds me of when I went through this phase as a kid where I would frequently smuggle the family iPad into my room and stay up until 4 am playing with it. Sitting at the foot of my bed obscured me from the view of anyone standing in the doorway, so I thought I was safe. Still, I stuffed it under a throw blanket and went full ragdoll mode every time I heard the slightest noise. My parents’ room is next door to mine, so my mom heard a weird noise one night (me plugging in a charger louder than I intended to) and came to check on me. This just so happened to be the one night I’d failed to properly lock my door. She walked up to my “foolproof” hiding place and saw me hunched over a suspicious luminous rectangle. Thus I was banned from electronic devices for two weeks for being “sneaky” and I lost my parents’ trust for a while.


when you're doing this, every little noise you hear sounds like your parents' footsteps, so you don't know if you should start pretending to sleep or just continue playing

nah... i trained and i react only to parents footsteps now

I got fooled, I thought this was going to be some seriously scary shit. To me my parents never cared if I played games throughout the night as long as I got enough sleep. I've been going down the rabbit hole of scary analog horror so I'd been expecting something more

Its much scarier if you live with abusers. I didnt even think of playing. Just breathing so quiet as I could.

@NonexitingSoulOfAWeeb nah, your mom's too nice, i'm not from US either, i'm from Brazil

@NonexitingSoulOfAWeeb nah, your mom's too nice, i'm not from US either, i'm from Brazil

My mother lets me play games whenever i want, idk if its bc im from Sweden and the us have stricter parents or if my mother is just very nice?

@Rocco Socko Studios OFFICIAL sometimes im covered in cum when that happens, and the only thing you hear is AHHH FECK YEEEE DADEEEEE HARD HAR HARDER.

@Dann Link how do you get caught? I blast heavy metal and loud  scary sounding punk songs in my room on my pc while i play 1st person shooters at 4 AM

Sometimes i hear knocks on my door when im in bed on my phone or on my pc, so i usually blast heavy metal or underground rap to scare off the  spirits. Also alot of the time its my cat ramming into my door.

then you pretend to sleep for a long time and when you get back to playing you immediately get caught, or actually fall asleep

The anxiety I get everytime I hear footsteps from upstairs thinking it’s my mom is insane like the loud ones shake me up a lil 💀

Broo I didn’t get it but now I do lol, the music threw me off lmao

I was playing fnaf when I was little and my father came in to check on me to see if I was sleeping, and one of the animatronics jump scared me so I screamed at the top of my lungs. My poor father screamed along with me.

Bro my parents sleep right above me and our walls & lights make a shit ton of noise so Ī never know when to pretend to sleep

It does that when I spank my monkey too. Senses are weird.

Bro, my little sister comes into my room to see if I'm awake so she can chill with me and it scares me because I usually think it's my parents 😭✋

@Rosetta i've done that once, but not with my heartbeat, when i went to play Mario Kart, the loading screen had a little tapping sound on the music, like a really far away drum, i mistook it with my parents' footsteps

Bro i would mistake my own heartbeat for my parents footsteps

Thank you for your comment. I was expecting the video to be some horror video but it was just the feeling of not getting caught past your bedtime playing video games

Doesn't scare me cause my parents are at the top floor and I'm below so I can hear them walking down the stairs. Then I just put the 3ds under the pillow

I was blessed with a lock growing up because I got my aunt's old bedroom.

Always had the the Zip opening of either my blanket or my cushion open and have hidden my DS inside it, when it was in my cushion I always rested my head on it because my mother sometimes touched under it to test if I have played at night

First you hear a noise

Then you pretend to sleep

You wait a while and see if anyone will walk in

Nobody walks in

You continue on your device

You hear another noise

You think it’s probably nothing

The nob on your door starts to jiggle

You have just a few seconds to look like your asleep as fast as possible now beyond this part there will be two outcomes

1. You get away and they think your sleeping

2. They will know your awake

@DannE RBYN bro, there's even a game about it, it's called WarioWare: Sneaky Gamer, you play as a boy playing on his little console and you gotta beat the game he's playing and at the same time, pretend to sleep when the mom comes

@salzzzy good luck mate, try not to be caught

That's me, up until two years ago, when I was still living with my ex-wife, trying to pretend I didn't play games. She would call me addicted, and convince people in our social network of her perspective on me, while all I wanted was to play games every now and then. Fucking abusive relationship.

She'd come home from work in the evening, and while I was in bed, the first thing I heard  was the backdoor slamming downstairs. My heart would race, and I'd close my phone as fast and silently as possible. Heaven is living without her ❤

i'm sorry but good job that you're out of that relationship. everyone is talking about their parents and this is the only unique comment I've seen so far. <3

if she gave you that much anxiety by just returning home, then you dodged a bullet, my guy, well after taking it square in the chest, that is...


The worst thing is my dad would put his face really close to mine and just stare. I swear my heart was racing faster than an F1 racing car

Yeah that was always really fucking weird and traumatizing

Jfc i thought only my mom did this, absolutely terrifying

wolfgang grimmer does not deserve to die

I didnt have this issue because my mum banned my dad from going in our rooms when we were asleep because he was always super paranoid that we would stop breathing and would sneak in and he woke me up multiple times just standing over me and it scared me so much lol

Or when you accidentally laugh cuz you hear their breath 😭😭


Once I was laughing while watching Helluva Boss at like 1am and my mother came in and heard me. I was so scared.

Should have just told her "I had a funny dream".

@-Rayquaza- Madness combat is for nerds it's not even good it's just "cool"

@Ωuntrouble nahh i just said I remembered a funny joke. I was panicking ok.

imagine being the mom and you just hear laughing from your child's bedroom but they're sleeping<br>literally terrifying, from a horror movie. probably scared your mom more than you loll

Laughing is the most dangerous game you can play 😭


I used to do this with books. I was a book work. Worst part was you can’t read in the dark. I would literally have to use streetlight or moonlight coming through a small part of my window uncovered by the drapes. It was really difficult and my eyes got really bad but I couldn’t put Harry Potter series down.

I too would read by street lamp light. Used to have a little flashlight that I kept hidden, but that too bright while my parents were still up - could see the light from under my door.

I used to do that with my random books my mom didn’t care at all. just told me to go to sleep.

Same, but my difficulty level was doubled because Harry Potter used to be banned in my home xD

I remember doing this for those driving manuals you get from a DMV. I was studying it in bed with my flashlight sitting in the crook of my neck, constantly readjusting it.

Shame you couldn’t Lumos in real life right? 😄

Same bro literally
Once i got caught too....
And i had only 4 books of the series and
My mum refused to buy more of em....


This has to be scary nostalgia but if you haven’t experienced this then your way to young

I'm 42. my era was Gameboy and sega Game Gear. I just went to bed. I didn't play them at night.

@huh? yea, you're absolutely right. I stopped doing it awhile ago and indeed, the SOUND. bruh.

@yetanotherpianist that sounds freaky
yes, i was talking about my laptop, but it takes like 5 minutes to turn on and 3 minutes to turn off and its loud as hell, so yeah that's the main reason
but even if my parent won't caught me, i still don't want to use it while in bedtime, it would destroy my eye
They are pretty generous so i have my time in day

@huh? I don't know if you're talking about a desktop or a laptop but I have done this for quite a while with a laptop and I neer got caught.

yeah i used to bring my chromebook out in the middle of the night. didnt end up very well, so i just stuck to my phone because it is smaller and easier to hide.

I sleep next to my mom becuse i live in an apartment with two rooms one for my grandma and for me and my mom if its late and im still watching YouTube she will start beating me up bru

Jk

I'm 16 and I know the feeling very well.

you're* way too young to know how to spell

bruh im 14 and i don't even have a phone<br>i have my own computer but i can't mess with it on my bed while in midnight

bruh im 14 and i don't even have a phone
i have my own computer but i can't mess with it on my bed while in midnight

it’s still possible with handheld devices like smartphones, iPads/tablets, and Nintendo Switch


the absolute dread and frozen fear while trying to pretend to sleep to avoid being caught is unmatched by any other phobia or event

I KNOW, IT ALWAYS HAPPENS TO ME, SCARES ME TO DEATH

When I was little I would do this all the time try not to get caught

Im pretty late but yeah, as a child im always doing that when its just me alone in my bedroom.

If i was caught i would put on a tired voice and act like my mom woke me up, but it never worked of course

screw the not being in the blanket if theres a monster thing

IM HIDING

But they know it even if we are pretending :)

True. And I have been caught so many times! 😅😂<br>Whenever I heard my Mom's footsteps, I would slid my phone back under my pillow and pretend to be asleep. My Mom would come in and just turn on the light and stands there staring at me like a ghost. I would so much struggle not to twitch my eyes or do any kind of body movement. Then she would come near my pillow, slide her hand, takes out my phone, knows that I was using it as the phone is warm and would say "So you were using your phone but now you're pretending to sleep huh?" and would stand there for 5 mins. I know I am caught but still pretend to be asleep. Then she would switch off the light and take my phone away with her.

You know, unless you're hiding from a sexual assaulter

Pretty much already an expert with that lol
I cover my face with my stuffed animal, try not to move eyes, avoid smiling, and pretend like im asleep
Doing it everyday kinda helps
Still hasn't got caught fortunately, and i hope never

i got caught once lol. Got my phone confiscated and had to clean our bathroom to get it back

Comment ruined by caring about the attention you got for it

Been doing it since I was 8<br>Experienced, but it's still scary nonetheless

Been doing it since I was 8
Experienced, but it's still scary nonetheless

is it a thing were people fear that, I always used to be excited at the idea of hiding from my ma and da without being caught might be just me though

@heath zzz She used to scare me too tbh and the eerie music just made it even worse

@heath zzz Are u talking about the one where the lady constantly keeps coming in and out of the bedroom staring and u have to hide behind the books and stuff so she doesn't catch u up at night?

To this day I can't play stealth games from the subconscious stress this activates

Sometimes I would largely fear my mom hearing my heart pounding... from the other end of the room. I surely could.

@Panel Imagine: you snuck your game (DS, iPad, idk something like that) and you can hear your parent’s footsteps coming to say goodnight. The original commenter is saying that pretending to sleep to avoid being caught like this is one of the scariest feelings

Ohhh I finally get it bro yeah I physically felt my heart drop once I thought my mum caught me 🥲

@Canaduck if i did that with one of my friends one of us would just laugh just bc

one time my dad was so suspicious of me he stayed there staring at me until i eventually gave out in fear

Bruh my mom beat the hell out of me one time when she caught me sneaking my DS

Thought this was like and scp where it makes monster sounds around you and you have to pretend to sleep to escape kind of like tjoc foxy

I was doing the same.

But whit my whole laptop.
Just imagine the difficulty but Malad level.

God bless you and whoever reads this, Jesus loves you

the "edit: blablabla" always ruins comments, just don't

yeah but when your with your friend its so funny lmao

@KaelEll mhm, look up warioware gamer. it’s also a stage in smash bros lol

they even made a game about it in warioware

Wean I was 5 i will just close my eyes just in case if something happens


As a 2000s kid, I remember this. I was playing on an iPad and hiding under the covers, and my mom was downstairs. Every time I heard her footsteps or other sounds, I’d think she was coming for me, so I would hide it under the bed (since I couldn’t hide it that well under my pillow) and I got caught after doing it for a long time.

that’s sad, you’re an iPad kid. also were u late 2000s because you’re probably not a 2000s kid

Dude it's common sense to just hide your iPad under the blanket with you I just hide my phone under my back when I sense my parents coming in to check me


I remember hearing the slightest sound and hiding my DS under my pillow. One time I tried reaching slowly and quietly under the pillow to turn it off but I ended up turning the thing all the way up and then getting in trouble lol


I'm not even that old as you guys. I understand EVERYTHING.<br>I used to watch videos in my computer when my parents thought I was in bed late at night. I thought I was getting away with it, because the door was locked. But turns out, they could hear everything. After weeks of doing this, my mom walked in. She had this look on her face... I cannot emphasize on that and on how fast my heart was beating. She took my computer away for the rest of the weekend. The next morning was very awkward. I regret everything. Luckily, I have more control on electronics now. I don't have to fear this moment ever again.

@Chillow Oh lmao I thought you were referring to uh y'know lol


The fact that this video even takes place only 3 days 3 hours and 9 minutes before I was born gives me the chills.

nah bruh you remember your exact birth date?

13.10.2005 13:10


The amount of fear you’d go through if you did this during your childhood or any stage of life is intense


I cannot explain how terrifying this is the absolute dread I would feel pretending to sleep sometimes I’d feel like my heart would sink because of how terrifying it was.

@3030toby for real, comments like “Same” are just pointless

Oh, I thought this was about a specific incident in 2005 lol.

@sjq Usgs stop watching these low effort Videos dude

Tbh same it's like this every night while playing fnaf danganrompa ddlc or even yttd and wattpad i put my Phone under my pillow and ài hear someone entering my room and the world stop

@Lou Tenant lmao imagine having roommate couldnt be me

I'm 25 and my heart still races when my asshole roommate decides to stand in my door way to check if I'm awake before asking me something

I used to smile every time I fake slept but now I learned from my mistakes

@sjq Usgs thanks for watching man, have a good day

@sjq Usgs stop making zero effort comments

For me I would fail pretending to sleep because for some reason if I pretend to sleep and my dad came to look if I was sleeping or not I would just laugh so hard

@sjq Usgs maybe you should make some yourself and get a bag instead of whining about meaningless shit on the internet

@sjq Usgs hi person thats watching this video


I love how many people have experienced this fear lol. Gonna miss this so much.


Reminds me of a reddit story how OP will use to go down the basement to play video games late at night. However, his mom came down while he was still down there so he made a quick dash past her to his bedroom. And after telling this to his mom, his mom was like, "So it was you!?" Because she thought they had a ghost.


When they entered my room, I always tried to stop laughing. Eventually, tears would start rolling down my cheeks and they would just stand there. Staring at me.


It's even worse when they enter but then you don't hear anything, even if you're convinced that they're still there. So it becomes horrible to hold your position still because you want to check if they're actually gone. When this happens to me I change the position, let them think that I'm just trying to get a more comfortable position


I remember doing this alot when I was younger and trying to cover my face with my right arm so my parents couldnt see my face if they came to ask for something or to check on us . Hearing any footsteps would be terrifying and im pretty sure i had minor hallucinations of stuff like footsteps and doors opening and closing as well as voices which just greatly increased my fear. When i would do this I would either be reading, watching one of my siblings playing a game or be on my ds or 3ds.<br>This also reminds me of a fear i have of opening my eyes from doing this and seeing some creepy person or horrifying creature right in my face.

It’s all fun and games until Mario says “Buh-bye-a!” and completely sabotages your stealth.

time to kick it into loud<br>throw the fucking thing at them and run

time to kick it into loud
throw the fucking thing at them and run

Bruh me and my brother shared a room and he would use his DS while i would use the nintendo he HE ALWAYS HAD THE FRIGGIN SOUND UP so when he closed it mario would say "So long!" In the most griddy and loud voice

Haha I always had mine almost muted at night so I didn't get caught... I think...

@EazyPlayzシ the DS and DSI handhelds had the New Super Mario Bros game (so good) and every time you’d fold your system into sleep mode; it’d say buh bye and then it’s a meeeee Mario

When you open it back up

It was great but it was always so lOUD

OH I REMEMBER AND I UNDERSTAND THIS VIDEO. I remember my playing on my DS when it was bedtime.

Get me to 1000 subs before YouTube bans me

Nah it's all fun and games until u get the anti piracy screen

someone I knew a while back Mario apparently got out of the video game or some into his room.-

That happened to me more than once a long time ago

@TangleKelp might as well be.

I heard they introduced the total playtime on Wii Mail, and made it unable to be deleted in any way, so that parents can check on the play time of their kids and see if they played 10 hours of mario kart on one day or so

I WAS JUST BOUT TO SAY, man's was always calling me out 😭

Can't you just turn it down all the way?

And then he sabotages you when you open to the point where it’s so loud.

I don't think I've ever had that specifically happen to me, but that I could easily picture it. I don't recall any other DS games doing anything like that when you open or close it.

One of the only bad parts of an otherwise underappreciated game!

Solution 1 - put the speaker on the pillow

he has headphones, his stealth: 9999999999999

@KrakenAnimates and then you can run without being tired like in the games

@Yeat Music it just reminded me of quite a few ass whoopings

Don’t play Mario at night on 3DS unless your parents are really tired

and then you see a text that says Step 1 SURVIVE

By god did i wish they purposely knew that

they had to have put that in the game on purpose


The close calls, the fun of getting away with it was an experience within itself


I remember last year that I was playing Roblox on my tablet at exactly 1:00 on a Monday. I heard my mom coming to my room so I hid the tablet behind me. My first instinct was to hide the tablet but by the time she came, I was sitting on my bed, awake. She saw me sitting on my bed staring at her wide-eyed. She told me to go to bed but she didn't get mad at me. She left and then she didn't even know that the tablet was behind me. She still doesn't know that the tablet was behind me to this very day.


I cannot express in words how much this YouTube video has changed my life. I have watched it countless times, and each time I watch it, I discover something new and profound that I had previously missed. The video is about the meaning of life, and it has given me a new perspective on how to live my own. The video is so powerful and thought-provoking that it has become an obsession for me. I have spent countless hours analyzing every frame, every word, and every nuance of the video. I have replayed it so many times that I can recite it by heart. I have even taken notes on it, trying to capture every single idea and concept that the video presents. The video has given me a sense of purpose and direction in my life. It has helped me to understand that life is not just about material possessions or worldly success, but about living a meaningful life that makes a positive impact on the world around us. It has taught me that life is about making connections with others and helping others to find their own meaning and purpose in life. The video has also helped me to let go of my fears and insecurities. It has taught me to be courageous and to take risks in life, even when the outcome is uncertain. It has taught me to be resilient and to keep going, even when things get tough. I cannot recommend this video enough. It is truly a work of art and a masterpiece of storytelling. It has changed my life in ways that I never thought possible. I urge everyone to watch it and to let it change their lives as well. It is a video that will stay with me forever, a constant reminder of the beauty and wonder of life.

This feels too deep for a video about pretending to be asleep so you don't get caught playing games or whatever


I actually had to bite my tongue throughout everything as I'd always laugh when it happened. My older brother caught me a shit ton of times because of that🤦🏾♂


I feel this. It's so anxiety inducing to be sitting on a little ds or something only to hear footsteps in the middle of the night realizing you'll be doomed if you don't pretend to sleep


I'm 100% willing to believe Mario's "buh bye!" In one of the DS games was a measure to make sure you're not staying up

I'm really glad I never used DS games in bed, lol.

Or just lower the volume all the way down?

I literally still keep the volume off on my phone and pc because of that shit haha

@PlagueDoc118 i would have thrown that shit and cried if that happened to me

Same happens with Drawn to Life, if you close the DS the game plays an "aw..." and when you open it again it goes "YAY!" Not the best game to play at night XD

@alternative lad oh damn didnt know they had that intention to do so.

Not Nintendo like the other two examples but dungeon keeper 2 narrator would start roasting you for being up late and just straight up yell at you to go to bed.

@starrie super mario 64 had it for sure too

Not to mention that in Animal cossing wild world,when playing between mindnight and 5 am charcaters would tell you that it was time to sleep and not to be awake!

@PJnotDJ I can confirm it was new super Mario bros cus I was playing that a few days ago

When I was little I learned to quickly turn the volume off as I closed it so the “buh bye” wouldn’t happen

@PlagueDoc118  it super Mario 64 ds or new super Mario bros

i think it was built in super mario 64 ds, and the super mario bros ds had the same feature.

@PlagueDoc118 I’m crying just thinking about it LOL

It was built into the 64 remake i think<br>That always game ended me

It was built into the 64 remake i think
That always game ended me

@PlagueDoc118 in animal crossing for GameCube, the infamous 2 am song I guess?

I don't remember which one, but an animal crossing game had a thing where, if you were playing past midnight (?) it would play an extremely loud and bass boosted version of the normal music (I'm not sure if it's true, my sister told me)


Once it was like a saturday night, and I was playing games on my laptop. I heard my dad walk up the stairs so I tried to turn off that laptop as quick as possible, but it turned out my window was still open. Quickly I improvised and acted like I had fallen asleep with me laptop still plugged into my charger. My dad came in and saw me ''sleeping'' with my window open, but it seemed like he did not really trust me sleeping. It was so dark in my room, that I had my eyes wide open and he would still think I was asleep! He slowly walked up to the window, closed it, and then stared at me for like 10 seconds. He was probably thinking about whether I was asleep or not, but then decided to just go to bed. The next day he walked up to me and went: ''Where you staring at me yesterday or was I hallucinating?'' and I just bursted out laughing because he didnt even realise my laptop wasnt fully turned off.


We gained instinct to be able to sense someone’s presence outside our rooms…it’s a shame such a skill will be lost in the next generations..

i am young but i know how to do this almost perfectly lol

im one of the newer generations but not too new ( generation alpha ). i can also sense someones presence, by that i can feel and sense someone is walking towards my room trying not to make any noise mostly and always my mom. NO ONE ELSE

It's an interesting sense. <br>Just hard to explain. I still do it when I am in a room and always a bit sus about someone being behind the door.

God hiding my 3ds when my parents were coming to check on me was absolutely terrifying.


It was even more risky for me, because I would be under the covers at night, playing Pokemon Blue on my Gameboy Colour, but because they didn't have backlights, I had to shine a torch at the screen while I played.

Well not so-much under the covers, but rather... I'd have my knees up and the covers over them like some sorta half-tent, so I could be aware of my surroundings while masking most of the torchlight


Throughout my entire younger teen years, i would watch youtube when i went to bed, i cant tell you the countless times i would freeze whenever i heard a slight noise, and if i heard footsteps, i would take off my headphones, turn my phone off and place it under my bed so fast i could have beaten the flash at it


the fear of being caught on a device was a way scarier feeling than every scary thing combined

@8888dave got flashbacks of me, right after getting caught on the spot playing games, shamelessly asking my parents ".... can i save it tho?" 😭

@Just an Ink Searcher that shit is scary especially when you go to the cave.

The scariest part is that one time i Actually got caught

I'd always be playing Pokémon, and they would never let me save.


I hated that creepy feeling of my mom opening my door to check if I'm sleeping. When I was really playing on my phone. Got caught once when I ignored a noise I heard. Got the living daylights beat out of me.


3 most scary things to me accordingly:

3. Showing report card to parents after saying I did good.
2. Having to speak in front of thousands while overthinking
1. Trying to upload a video/ listen song/ have some immense chat/arguement at night and when I get deep into that, I hear something fall down, or some footsteps.. can't believe how quick I am in pretending asleep


i remember one night every time my dad got up to use the bathroom he would check on me, it was just scary everytime not knowing if he would walk in or not. i would also wait like 5 mins before going back to whatever i was doing

oh my fockin god relatable af, i sometimes fell asleep during that


I’m in my early 20s and live with my mum and still do this when I’m awake at 3 or 4 am on my phone. You never grow out of this trauma lol


That was so terrifying! I'm still a "kid" and still freak out when I hear one of my parents coming, especially my dad. And yeah I memorized their footsteps lol.

if its my dad i don’t freak out he usually has headphones in, so he won’t hear me, but if it’s my mom-I know she’s going to check on me so I panic(my dad wears slippers my mom doesn’t.)
