Almost anyone can create a Wikipedia page, which might be why some of them are really weird.

If a specific topic doesn't have a page, all you have to do is research, write, and submit content for review before making one. With such a streamlined process, there are more than 5 million Wikipedia pages—so naturally, some may freak you out.

If you weren't aware of America's history of creepy murders, Wikipedia can definitely help you out.

"The fact that the killers were just children themselves is sickening," Massdebate159 responded.

Other Redditors shared creepy murder stories; check these out if you never want to sleep again:

Wikipedia is also a great place to read up on rare syndromes, medical anomalies, or other problems you didn't even know existed.

For instance, the page on Locked-in Syndrome described it as "a condition in which a patient is aware but cannot move or communicate verbally due to complete paralysis of nearly all voluntary muscles in the body except for the eyes."
