These weird facts came from the internet, so take them with a grain of salt.
Trivia games can be really fun, but the questions usually revolve around pop culture and history facts, basic dates, and names that anyone might learn. What we really want are the facts so bizarre, suggestive, and sinister that you probably wouldn’t want to explain why you know them. And now those freaky facts are all compiled in this thread started by Redditor u/IamDK003 on r/AskReddit.
“What is most ‘why the f—k do you know that’ fact?” he asked.
I really have to hand it to people, I did not know most of these facts and I’m currently wondering if one or two of them might save my life someday. There are also a couple that genuinely made me laugh out loud because they’re so odd. The only downside is that I can’t share them in conversation without that person thinking I’m an absolute weirdo. Thank goodness for the internet, where everyone is a giant weirdo who knows too much about murder.

Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde was a really popular novel, and was made into a stage play. The actor playing the eponymous role(s) was so good at switching from the good doctor to the evil Hyde that people wrote to the police claiming that he absolutely had to be the real Jack the Ripper (who was thought likely to be a qualified doctor based on the way he dissected his victims). They thought no normal person would be able to make such a transformation. —jelilikins
