Creepy Fiance

pinkcow13

FI creeped the hell out of me in the middle of the night. So I'm sleeping, and I tend to be a pretty light sleeper. I was sleeping on my side, facing him, when I opened my eyes . FI was sitting half upright in bed, with a hand on my thigh, looking directly behind me, towards the window. I immediately said "Jeez, babe, what the hell are you doing?!!" He just stayed there for a few more seconds, and then jumped out of bed and walked over to the radiator which is under the window. He kinda leaned over it, still looking outside the window. I thought he maybe saw something outside, or heard something. He then walked back into bed, with that blank expression on his face and said "I don't hear it." So I said, "Here what?" And he muttered something that sounded like "The chicks..." And I responded, "What?!" He then said a little louder "The jets... in the tower...thingy." And then just went back to sleep.

Either I had a really weird vivid dream, or FI was sleepwalking. He used to sleepwalk as a kid, and every once in a while he says weird stuff in his sleep, which creeps me out  - so I'm gonna go with FI sleepwalking, and not me dreaming this up. I told him this morning and he didn't totally believe me, but then he said he was probably trying to lower the temperature in the room because it was so damn cold.

Halloween must be in the air. Any of your SO's do anything weird and creepy lately?

Ah, that would freak me out!!

One time FI started screaming at the door in his sleep, saying, "Get out! What are you doing in here?! Leave!"....like seriously yelling at an imaginary person in the room. It FREAKED ME OUT!! I had no clue if someone was actually in the room or not! (this was when we were in college and he lived with 6 other guys).

It was sooo weird. It took me a long time to actually wake him up and make him stop being so creepy haha.

V does stuff like that all the time! He says that he wakes up but he still has "leftovers" from dreams.  For example last night I was getting into bed and V wakes up. He asks why the bed is deflated by 4 inches. We have a normal matress....I just told him to go back to bed ha.

HA!

FI also sleeptalks and clicks his teeth super loud repeatedly at times. I have to actually hold his jaw shut until he stops because it's really creepy and also irritating. I have had full conversations with him that are complete non-sense and he never remembers them.

A few years ago, we watched Paranormal Activities right before bed. We thought that movie was pretty stupid. I told him that I will wake up if he stands over the bed and watches me sleep the entire night, and I also will probably punch him because I would get freaked out. (In the movie the dude watches the girl all night and she never notices). That night, I was having an awesome dream about a dancing golden gorilla singing Israel Kamakawiwo'ole and I wake up to FI's arm being right in front of my face. I thought his arm was his head crooked at me all creepy, and that he was staring at me. I punched him and missed his arm and actually hit him in the face. He was so mad at me, but I told him I made good on my promises!!!

We laugh about it now.

LMFAO, there is so much creepiness and so much funny in this story! When FI went back to sleep he held the top of my head with one hand, and my thigh with his other. Weirdo.

He better not scream in the middle of the night though, because I would seriously probably have a heart attack lol.

Okay so I'm a pretty crazy girl and I used to have night terrors. I don't get them anymore as often. I would wake up a little and think hordes of spiders were falling from the ceiling or crawling up the bedspread at me. You can imagine the screams FI woke up to. 

I got over my fear of spiders, though.

He was probably sleepwalking.  I had an ex who once woke me up very urgently in the middle of the night to tell me that we had to be careful so that the chickens didn't get the roller coaster in the front yard dirty, then promptly laid back down and closed his eyes.  He had no recollection of it the next morning. 

ETA - tenses, they should match

When I was with my ex, we had just finished watching Paranormal Activity on Halloween. I woke up in the middle of the night to him standing by the bed, swaying back and forth. I was like "Knock it off, that's not funny." But he was like, staring into space... and then he started speaking fluent German. He doesn't speak German!

I had a migraine two nights ago so I went to bed early to try and nip it in the butt.  FI stayed up and was playing videogames.  A few hours later I wake up because I hear some scratching on the door.  Kitty doesn't have front claws,  so I'm sitting up in bed and I see a shadow under the door, I grab the baseball bat that's beside the bed and get up fully prepared to bash whoever it is that's scratching on the door. 

I'm still half asleep, so the thought that FI isn't in bed doesn't occur to me.  I open the door with the bat ready to swing and find FI on the floor with the birdy sitting on his hand.  He's trying to teach the parrot how to knock with his claw, but the bird is just scraping his claws on the door. 

He said he was sorry to wake me up, but he thought that I would be so passed out from the migraine meds that it wouldn't matter.  Freaking gave me a heartattack.

That is really really creepy.

FI sometimes get these weird "spells" at night. We've been to doctors, neurologists, sleep studies, etc. No one can figure out what they are, so they can't treat them. The doctors usually end up blaming them on sleepwalking, but I don't buy it. Luckily they only happen a couple of times a year, but they are so creepy. It usually starts with what I would consider a weird seizure (he's always face down, so I can't exactly see. But then he gets up and is totally out of it. He doesn't know who I am and is completely out of touch with reality. Then he gets incredibly upse Last time I was asking him questions and trying to get him to calm down and he just strings random words together that make no sense. (My name was "cancer shopping.") It's really scary because I can't help him, and we have no idea what is going on.

novella1186

FI does a mechanical mad scientist laugh in his sleep all the time. Like all. The. Time. Scares the hell out of me. Sometimes I get so scared that  I smack him and wake him up. Every so often he'll talk. A few weeks ago I woke up to him muttering something (and for some reason I always initially think he's awake and talking to me when I first wake up) so I asked, "what are you saying?" He said a little louder, "Kill them all!" I said, "WHAT?!" He repeated: "Kill them. Kill everyone in the kingdom." Then he proceeded to whisper "kill em... kill em..." 

Too much Game of Thrones, maybe.  

futuremrsr2015

FI talks in his sleep sometimes other times it's almost shouting and every once and awhile I'll get a hit in the leg or the arm from him flailing in his sleep.

My cat was really weird the other night I was having really weird/unsettling dreams (probably from watching both the Purge:Anarchy and Annabelle just before bed) when I was woken up by something nudging my elbow and what felt like sandpaper.  I finally open my eyes and my cat just looks at me then turns around and goes back to sleep.

That would totally freak me out! My ex used to talk in his sleep. 

I once also woke myself up - I was laughing in my sleep. It really scared me.

That's so creepy! The worst part is that no one can figure out what these spells are. Has he been having them for a long time? 

ClimbingBrideNY, I've actually done that! It's kinda recent for me, but there have been times in which something really funny will happen in my dream and I wake myself up giggling. It's so random and weird.

So many of these stories are so creepy! 

thisismynickname2

These are pretty freaky!

I'm the creepy one. Once I woke up laughing hysterically. Seriously, hysterical laughter. It took me several minutes to get it under control. I don't have the slightest idea what was so damn funny.

Paranormal Activity (3 maybe?) freaked me out so much a few years ago I still get nervous going to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I'm convinced I'm going to see a sheet-covered figure in my living room.  If my DH did anything like what PPs have described I'd have a heart attack.

@pinkcow13 I think it has been about five years now. I used to always call the ambulance and they would sedate him and take him to the hospital. Since they've never found anything, and can't do anything, now I only call if he's really agitated and needs to be sedated. Sometimes I can talk him into going back into bed. It's mostly frustrating. I really wish we knew what was causing them, so we could avoid them!

Thank you @NYCMercedes! The lovely and talented Beethery shrunk them for me because I couldn't figure out how to do it myself. :-P

That's terrible! I can only imagine how frustrating that would be.I really hope you guys get answers soon on this. I would imagine this is scary for both of you guys.

Thankfully DH doesn't do this, but my brother used have pretty bad night terrors pretty frequently. My room was across the hall from his and I was always the lightest sleeper, so I was the one who had to try and calm him down and get him back to sleep. Bugs were a common sighting; once he thought his alarm clock was a bomb and kept trying to throw it down the hallway, but it would recoil cuz it was still plugged into the wall; once he warned me that there were "laser beams in the hallway... from Instant Messenger." I also woke up to him punching me once when we were camping (so I was on the dinette bed just below his bunk) and he dreamed there was an intruder. He doesn't remember any of these dreams or his conversations with me.

That is both awesome and hilarious! Yeah it probably sucked trying to deal with it at the time, but at least it makes a funny story later, right? I'm always terrified when FI says weird shit to me in his sleep but I always laugh when I talk about it after the fact :P

Oh my. That would have freaked me out.

My husband has done this thing in recent months that has me a bit concerned. The first time it literally had me shaking.

He just starts screaming in his sleep. And it's terrible. It starts low and rises. And it's not like the fake screaming on tv and in movies. I can't describe the tenor of it but it is real. He is literally scared for his life. And I have to wake him up and he has no idea what happened, just that he is scared. 

Ugh that's terrible, and so terrifying. Has he been to a sleep specialist?

I find it hilarious, and love telling the story. I was pretty used to getting woken up by his antics so it didn't bother me too much.

FI does the talking in his sleep, screaming, sitting straight up in bed stuff so much, I just ignore it now.  I also do it at times, one notable time was after we went to see The Blind Side in theaters and I started screaming SJ!  SJ!  and talking to FI about how we had to save SJ from the street... yea... idk..

H had night terrors as a kid. He had one with me where he shot up in bed and started screaming and kicking. I was scared enough, but he scared the cat so badly that he ripped a claw out running away. Left bloody paw prints around the house.

Another time H was on his back, snoring, with his hands crossed on his chest like a corpse (no idea why he sleeps like that- it's his favorite). I shook him to try to get him to roll over, and instead he sat up, opened his eyes, and smiled at me. Then he laid back down and stayed smiling with his eyes half-open. I almost kicked him out of the bed.

Holy crap, that is creepy as hell!!! I think I would have slept on the couch or turned the tv on for the rest of the night!  Yikes!

My fiance hasn't creeped me out but his parents house sure does. It is a 200 year old victorian that has two ghost an old man named george and little girl named Alice. She likes to play tricks the whole family talks about her and so do their relatives and friends. Well one night my fiance and I were sleeping on the bottom bunk of a bunk bed and his sister (future sister in law) on top bunk. Well basically I woke up out of a dead sleep to a door knob moving and being opened slowly. I watched the door open (with creaking noise) and then it automatically shut fast as if someone peeked in the room then slammed the door. I first froze watching it open then when it shut I screamed so loud I woke my fiance and his sister up. We checked around nothing or no one was there and there was no wind or draft. The way the door opened there was no way it was the house settling there had to be a person behind it. The room also got very cold when I woke up out of my sleep. My fiance did say well I guess your officially part of the family now. Alice only messes with people who are born into the family or she knows are going to be around a while or has become used to seeing frequently. The first time she bothered me was right after we had gotten engaged. Anyways, I refuse to sleep at my future -in-laws anymore! We now sleep next door at his sisters when we visit. I just hope our future children don't come to me one day saying they play with or see a little girl named Alice on a family visit.

FI hasn't done anything weird lately, but last year when we were staying at my parents' house he woke up at 4AM (on a weekend) and started trying to find his clothes in the complete dark. Apparently he had a dream that he needed to get to work for an important meeting. When I told him he was dreaming, he got worried that he told me confidential information from work (he hadn't).

This made me spit coffee out my nose.  It would terrify me if it happened to me, but it's really funny to me from the outside!

We both talk in our sleep.  I apparently like to count??  I guess I count to 10 really fast randomly in my sleep.  I also grind my teeth when I'm stressed.

FI, on the other hand will do like many of you describe where he sits up, appears to be awake, starts a conversation, but it quickly devolves in to nonsense and gibberish.  That's when I realize he isn't actually awake and I can get him to lay back down.

He'd be horrified to know I shared this, but he has also peed in the bed about 3 times since we've been together.  He says he has dreams where he has gotten up to pee, but then he's woken up by the wetness.  And of course that involves us both getting up, tearing sheets off the bed and starting laundry in the middle of the night.  No fun!

Oh man, that sucks! It's actually the opposite with me. If I have to really pee at night, sometimes I will dream that I have to pee, and when I attempt to do so, it won't come out. I end up attempting to pee in really random places, too. Like in front of a full classroom, or in a shed in the woods, or in the middle of a department store. But when the moment comes, I can't do it and it frustrates me in the dream. Then I wake up and realized I have to pee in real life.
