The apple sits atop a chair. Dream-like, unexpected images flood your thoughts as you’re watching your soon-to-be dinner spin round and round in the microwave. As though a boat caught in a whirlpool, it’s waiting for its demise. Though perhaps you shouldn’t eat boats; they’re not known to be very nutritious.

A sense of doom is in the air. And today we are looking into surrealism and dream-like, unexpected images that people have shared within a Facebook group called “Accidental Surrealism.” Bored Panda has covered the intriguing and mind-bending images from this group before; here is the link to one, and a link to another article.

But is there a need to despair? Dear reader, as you’re scrolling through this list, trying to convince yourself that these images haven’t been painted or photoshopped, make sure to upvote your favorites and leave some comments in your wake. There is also a bit of surrealist writing that I myself took the liberty of sharing with you in a silly, less obvious way. Can you figure it out?

When all we are is mounds of flair. We reached out to Iván Correa, a surrealist visual artist, to learn more about the process of creating surrealistic artworks and their impact on society as a whole. We're proud to feature his artwork "Apoteosis De Vancor En La Batalla De Los Draconianos" as a start to this surreal list. Without further ado, let’s get into it!

    I could be 100% wrong, but it looks like the power plant outside Las Vegas, which is a huge field of mirrors all pointed at the top of a tower in the middle, which superheats salt (or something, but I think it's salt) to create steam to spin a turbine and create electricity. Something like that.
