Coronation Chair, Westminster Abbey
The postcard I chose for his reply - I owe him a hundred letters at least, this, a start so he knows that I'm not dead:

Note that there's only allowed "5 Words Conventional Greeting". Odd, would the extra ink make it that much more expensive to send? And the note that it's a real photograph...

What is the creepiest thing your child has ever said to you?
A reddit thread with some very interesting responses...
No spoilers, but there's more than a few good horror movies here. And - having had kids, I've no reason to think that any of them are making it up.
