Ever since cameras came along, people have been trying to capture spooky moments or trying to prove that the supernatural exists.

Some photos can be accidental — for example, you spot a shadow, a reflection, or a shape that just looks weird. Others can be intentional — like when an abandoned building or empty corridors give off haunted vibes.

No matter how creepy or terrifying an image is, we all know that mix of feeling scared but also hooked at the same time. You just can’t look away sometimes.

The r/Scary subreddit is full of creepy images, and we’ve narrowed down some of best snapshots that show the scariest, the most bizarre, and the strangest side of real life.

Some of these are bound to make you shiver and once you start scrolling, you won’t be able to stop.

I believe that is supposed to be a scene from a movie called The Exorcist from the seventies. A priest is trying to exorcist a dem on out of this girl and she is vomiting all over the priest.

    I know he's a brilliant director, but I wish he would make a movie that isn't scary horror. I can't take horror. Stephen King wrote a story for his daughter that wasn't scary, because she asked him, and I loved it. I wish Del Toro would follow suit.

    The horror genre is huge — from movies, TV shows to even just scary images on your phone, it is one of the most popular entertainment forms. But fear isn’t exactly a positive feeling, so why are we so attracted by content that make our skin crawl and send a shiver down the spine?

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Fear isn’t necessarily negative either — one of the reasons we love horror is that it gives us a major rush. Seeing something scary or even anticipating it acts as a stimulation for the brain.

    Psychologically speaking, your body gets filled with adrenaline when something scares you, making you more alert and full of energy.

    Fear triggers the body’s natural “fight or flight” response, sharpens our senses and makes us notice things we might otherwise ignore. In a way, it helps us react faster in real-life situations.

    It is one of our oldest survival tools — fear helped our ancestors stay safe in dangerous situations, and even today it guides our decisions and protects us in ways we often don’t notice.

    Research says we have a mental “protective frame” that lets us enjoy scary experiences, turning fear into fun — as long as our brains believe that we are safely sitting at home, while scrolling through these images, it can help us enjoy the thrill.

    The horror genre also has a solid fan base among Americans.

    In a recent survey, about half of Americans (50%) said they like or love horror movies, with most popular subgenres being comedic horror and psychological horror. Other popular styles include paranormal, vampire, monster, and witchcraft horror.

    On the other hand, some types of horror that don’t sit well with most people are straight-up gore that feel too violent or disturbing.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    According to the survey, age and gender also play a role in how much people are drawn towards scary or creepy content.

    Younger adults are more likely to enjoy horror than older Americans, and men tend to be bigger fans of the genre than women.

    The love for horror goes beyond just movies and many people engage with horror media more broadly — including images, stories, books, games, and other scary content.

    Research by Penguin Random House found that many kids enjoy horror books —about one in four kids reported they read or enjoy scary stories.

    “Horror allows us to confront our anxieties in a controlled space, where the boundaries between reality and fiction are firmly drawn,” Dr Steven Gerrard, a scholar of horror cinema, told Dazed magazine.

    Looking at these images makes you wonder one thing — are we actually more drawn towards real-life creepy stuff than to fictional horror stories?

    Stories that feel true might stay with us more than made-up ones because they connect with our personal beliefs and emotions. It also taps into our imagination more.

    Such types of pictures can also make us feel that there is something beyond our own world, helping us make sense of our mortality and making us feel that life goes on.

    Which means while ghost stories or images can be terrifying, to some it can also provide a sense of comfort.

    Experts say that people often try to find meaning in things, even when there isn’t any, and that’s a major reason why ghost stories or photos can feel convincing.

    I call BS. Some desperate person wanted attention on Reddit because this isn't real. This looks like a swing bar door latch, a type of hardware set on the inside of the door, so if the door was shut and locked, it can't be pried from the outside. If the door wasn't shut or locked, there'd be no need to pry this off.

    It's usually cheaper and safer (legally speaking) to use adult actors instead of child actors, if you can. You don't have to have tutors available on the set, or certain other staff members, if your "minor-aged" characters are portrayed by adult actors. My mom pushed me into acting as a child and wanted me to be a famous child actress (and make her tons of money) but my body got on the Maturity Train early, and casting directors would flat-out tell me that I looked "too mature" for my age XD My mom forced me to get emancipated in a desperate bid to make me more marketable, as I wouldn't need certain staff members to be present if I were an emancipated minor, but alas, I did not become a famous child actress. Only two IMDb credits XD

    I knew a girl who showed up at her first modelling job (she was 16), and they told her, "You will be the mom." It was for a catalog advertisement for pool equipment, and the people who were her "kids" were 16 and 18. She asked why she was the mom, and they said, "You just have a mom look." It makes me suspicious of those ads every time I see them.

    There was an old Gothic lunatic asylum, later an insane asylum, set on a hill, back from the road, in the county I grew up in. Driving by at night could be a bit creepy depending on the moonlight and mist, conjuring up thoughts of a haunted period setting. I would've soiled myself if I ever saw a light on in that place.

    Thankfully these will soon no longer be used in the UK. On the 22nd of December 2025 the UK government outlawed farrowing cages and keeping hens in cages. The changes will be phased in over the next 12 months. All farm livestock must now be given access to suitable outdoor spaces and fresh air, and factory farming will effectively be banned. The use of preventative antibiotics in farm animals has already been outlawed

    I had to dig a grave in the woods at 5AM. There was something out there with me. whether deer, fox, racoon, possum, bear, bobcat or coyote I never knew, but it was definitely watching me. I would hear it move every 5 minutes or so. No, I did not have a flashlight with me, just a small LED light that lit up an area about 6 feet. Now I'm just an old country boy but it still creeped me out. I was certainly grateful when the sun rose an hour later.

    Went to a job interview at a startup company. Their office was in the back of a (mostly closed) shopping mall down a corridor very much like this one. Only one small safety light in the corridor and doors opening off it every 20-50 feet, but all closed and dark. Theirs was almost to the end and seemed almost normal once you went in. After the interview I turned down their offer (they just couldn't pay an adequate wage) and had to walk out that long, dark, quiet corridor. I may have been walking a bit more briskly than normal before I got out.

    An Actual Spa I'm Currently Staying In

    An Actual Spa I'm Currently Staying In

    I'm coming to the end of a week's trip with my Dad and brothers.

    We've been to Turkey (where my dad's side is from) to see family, friends, relax and get in touch with our roots.

    At the end of the trip my Dad had a geothermal pool spa stay planned for us all.

    He told us about it from the very start and had vouched for it the past few years as he's been with my sisters, or with his fellow brothers from his Muslim community.

    It's REALLY secluded, up in the mountains, probably closest to like a small village or two but not much else.

    Upon arrival we found out it had massively gone downhill and stopped being maintained.

    Now I want to make it clear there are plenty of areas that look normal, and the facilities that are still functional are lovely (geothermal pool, chilled pool, Turkish bath).

    But I came across a few questionably scary/liminal looking spots in the resort that just gave me the heebie jeebies and I had to share them here, because these photos together look like something straight out of a terrifying horror film (I'm a huge horror fan so maybe I'm biased).

    Add to that, the fact that it's Ramadan currently, so most people arent travelling to these sorts of places and as a result there are like a total of 6 other guests staying here at the moment leaving the whole resort mostly empty, bar a few staff here and there.

    The first photo is the hallway to our rooms, the end lights don't even turn on as you walk down into that dark abyss. shudders

    The (definitely abandoned) children's play area is highly unsettling. (I didn't snap a photo of it but there's one sole tiny ride machine hidden in a dark corner, with a huge duck head with a massive beak and eyes staring at you from the darkness and it's f*cking terrifying).

    The geothermal pool area - whilst VERY relaxing and therapeutic - looks like a summoning chamber.

    The staircase area is liminal af and something about it just doesn't sit right with me.

    Again, lovely stay despite it's lack of maintenance, but the vibe of these areas was too good not to share.

    Would make a great spot to shoot a found footage horror for sure.

    No, it's not a labubu - or however you spell it, they have visible teeth.

    I'd never heard of this movie until today, and now I've seen it mentioned twice. Once here, and once as my crossword clue this morning.

    There are no wild alligators in Australia. Alligators are native to North America and China, and there are no species of alligators that are indigenous to Australia. The reptiles often mistaken for alligators in Australia are actually crocodiles.

    You'd think that " Crocosaurus Cove, Australia" would be a good hint for the caption writer.

    I'd think the name crocosaurus cove might be a giveaway that it's a Crocodile not an alligator. They're not interchangeable

    One day something is going to go awfully wrong, and that thing will enjoy a very tasty bite after years of being baited, only to be put down as a dangerous man eater. Tragic irony.
