About

I Need You refers to a cursed image of a creepy, uncanny face that only has eyes and teeth with a bottom caption reading, "I need you," resembling a creepypasta character. The source image is a white man's face that was crudely distorted and edited by the creator. The I Need You meme was created by Twitter / X user ghost_fur (@furghost1) in mid-October 2024, who recreated what they saw in a nightmare that made them cry, akin to other memes from dreams. After the original viral tweet, users on X and other social media platforms spread the I Need You image and made fan art of the character. Some created videos that made the character talk or move around. The I Need You guy was also compared to This Man from the Ever Dream This Man? meme.

Anonymous Have you or a loved one seen a(...) I need you 43 KB JPG 10/12/24(Sat)22:13:31 No.39027074 I used to have a recurring dream with this weird face, and it freaked me out. Then I saw this post, and apparently, a lot of people have seen this face in their dreams. It could be that It's just a very simple face, but it could also be something paranormal. Anyway, have you seen a similar face or have any experiences with weird dream demons?
