Out of all the Twitter accounts out there, few live up to their name as well as 'Cursed Images'.

It shares random pictures from random times and random places with random subjects doing random things. But they all have one thing in common; they make you feel uneasy.

Whether it's a playground next to a cemetery or just a fridge full of naked action dolls, these shots raise more questions than they answer and the lack of context behind them is a big part of what makes them so tense.

Continue scrolling to check out our handpicked selection from 'Cursed Images' and upvote your most (least?) favorite ones. OK, be right back, need to get myself an exorcist.

More info: Twitter

But the concept of cursed images has been circulating online for a few years now. According to the famous internet culture catalog Know Your Meme, these pictures are generally seen as disturbing to the viewer, either due to poor photo quality or abnormal and illogical content.

The idea of cursed images initially started on Tumblr, and the first account to publish them exclusively was of the same name as this Twitter account. Its first post appeared on October 28th, 2015, and gained just over 1,200 notes.

Images of this or similar nature are sometimes seen as the visual equivalent to CreepyPasta, a genre of short horror stories.

This Twitter page aside, they have inspired several popular social media accounts. In fact, we've already covered one of them!

Fun fact, what you see on the right is the deer's own skin hanging off the antlers, in a process known as velvet shedding which is rare to capture. Typically spring through summer, the male deer's antlers will look rounded and velvety. The thick velvet skin is needed to carry nutrients efficiently all the way up the antlers to make them very strong each year as they are regrown - possibly the fastest-growing structure in the mammal world! As autumn begins, the skin dies and falls off with some tree-rubbing assistance, and the strong, sharp, bony antlers are revealed, ready for flair and fighting to win over their mates.

But if cursed pics are something you're not very fond of, try the polar opposite of them and check out these 50 blessed ones.

But that's not all. In case you're willing to do a little digging yourself, there’s also a hybrid variant that is both blessed and cursed. It's called ‘blursed.’

This makes me sad. Unlike most other entries, where people are making fun with themselves, this person has lost his entire living in a flood. Not something we should laugh with...

This is still sad, but this gentleman is from the UK, his home was flooded during Storm Desmond a few years ago, he asked his neighbour to take some photos as he went for a quick dip for a laugh (Blitz spirit), and actually raised some money from it for the recovery fund! Peter Clarkson, what a guy.

I was thinking that someone was making lemons out of lemonade, mostly because he's undressed, which indicates he's swimming as opposed to escaping or rescuing stuff. Thanks for confirming! Brits and their humour! Hope all is well with this gentleman now.

Even though it cost him his marriage, Bob couldn't bring himself to regret his new bitchen. He saved at least 7 minutes a day being able to take care of his bathroom / bath needs while he cooked dinner.
