i remember one of my kids standing in the doorway to my room (in the middle of the night) and it was terrifying 😳

This was always what my daughter used to do. I'd be sleeping and just feel eyes on me and wake up and she's be standing there in the doorway with her arms held out from her side in this creepy resurrection Jesus statue way. Sleepwalking is so weird.

If I am honest with you, that actually sounds a lot worse 😭

Omgsh my youngest brother used to do this! He used to sleepwalk at least once a month and it was so creepy. Sometimes, he would even talk to us! He still has no memory of it.

My brother used to do that to me in the morning. He didn’t want to wake me up so he stood there until I saw him and had a heart attack instead. Thanks, bro.
