Huggy Wuggy video warning as cops urge parents to stop kids from watching horrifying TikTok killer teddy bear clips

PARENTS are being urged to stop their kids from watching horrifying TikTok videos of a killer teddy named "Huggy Wuggy".

Police issued an urgent warning after children were seen acting out the razor-toothed bear's actions on the school playground.

The creepy teddy sings about "hugging and killing" and asks viewers to "take their last breath".

It has been compared to the Killer Crown craze, which swept across the country a few years back.

Children are now said to be traumatised by the TikTok videos, which started as a puzzle game that sees villain Huggy stalking players in a toy factory.

Chris Conroy, cyber protection officer for Dorset Police said: "There are videos people have made, songs people have made, and it's popping up all over YouTube and Tik Tok using this quite graphic imagery of this bear-like character with razor sharp teeth.

"It's based around jump scares and things you certainly wouldn't want children exposed to."

Police have warned some kids are recreating the game at school and whispering sinister lyrics to each other as the game's popularity grows.

One chilling line says: "I could hug you here forever, til you breathe your last breath together."

It continues: "My teeth sharp and ready, in my grasp, yeah they're deadly".

The blue bear also invites people to "lean in for a spine-breaking embrace".

Mum-of-two Rhia Fearn said she at first thought the bear was harmless when her five-year-old son asked her about it due to the name.

But when she probed him, she realised the innocent teddy was actually far more sinister.

The 35-year-old, from Etwall, Derbys, told : "He told me Huggy Wuggy kills everyone he meets and he's not nice, he's a baddie and he's very mean.

"I believe its accessible on Youtube and it's really frightening that this Huggy Wuggy has snuck in under my radar as a parent and infiltrated my child's mind without me even being aware.

"Now I feel really silly for not listening more intently to what my son was telling me and realising the violence this character portrays.

"Kids want to play the games of Huggy Wuggy, they are talking about it in the playground. It's really frightening as a lot of parents will be oblivious to this level of violence our children are being exposed to.

"We need help and awareness because it's scary how it goes under radar. I think I'm pretty conscious what I let Harrison get exposed to but when it happens in conversations in the playground, I think parents and schools need to be more vigilant."

'SINISTER'

Another parent added: "All the children are talking about it and showing each other these videos, it's become a bit of a craze that is getting really popular.

"It's extremely concerning because this character is really sinister and frankly terrifying. It's almost becoming the online version of that Killer Clown craze."

Justine Brown, headteacher at Deal Parochial Church of England Primary School in Walmer, Kent, has also warned parents to stay vigilant.

She said: "We are seeing children recreating a game on the playground with hugging and whispering nasty things.

"It is a very deceiving character, as hugs should be seen as something kind and loving, and because of its cute name, it can infiltrate firewalls and filters.

"Please be vigilant about what your children are watching."

The puzzle game can be found on YouTube as well as Roblox but has no age rating meaning content is unfiltered.

A Dorset Police spokesperson said: "The blue bear-like character has long arms and rows of razor sharp teeth.

"Set in an abandoned toy factory Huggy is a villain in the game who stalks the players from vents are unreachable places.

"Videos of the game are available to watch on YouTube, with other clips dedicated to Huggy in songs.

"One song includes the lyrics 'I could hug you here forever, till you breathe your last breath together."
