Far more of your friends have a profound interest in true crime, conspiracy theories, and disturbing real-life tales than you’d think. Behind the gentle smiles and innocuous small-talk lie busy minds and guarded hearts that have a deep-rooted fascination with mystery, weirdness, and the darker aspects of what it means to be a human being.

That’s where the ‘Con Spiracy’ Instagram page comes in. Part of a massively popular brand, the page showcases some of the most bizarre and disturbing things that have happened (or are rumored to have been true). We’re featuring some of the most entrancing strange and morbid facts that the creator of the project has shared with his fans.

Scroll down if you want to be intrigued and spooked, dear Pandas. Upvote the facts that unsettled and weirded you out the most, and share your honest thoughts about them in the comments. Yes, sometimes, real life is far more frightening than the movies we watch and the books we read: you won't be able to look at some things the same way after this article.

Connor, the founder of 'Con Spiracy,' was kind enough to tell Bored Panda all about the inspiration behind the social media project, what kind of morbid content resonates the most with his audience, as well as why people are so fascinated with the weird and deeply dark aspects of humankind.

"As conscious beings, we cannot simply ignore the negative aspects of history and everyday life. Not all roses are red; there are dark realities beyond those familiar to us, and while some prefer to turn their heads away, many of us can’t help but look, and I think it’s important to look. This morbid curiosity exists within all of us in some form or another, and I think that embracing it makes us more interesting and understanding as collective individuals." Read on for the full interview.
