The horror genre is having a serious comeback at the moment. True crime shows are more popular than ever, scary movies have never been as authentic and original (thank you Ari Aster, Jordan Peele and Robert Eggers!) Even officials from the U.S. military have admitted that UFOs are real. Well, more accurately, they said that the government is in possession of “inhuman” remains. That probably creeped us out even more.

To celebrate this resurgence of all things creepy, we have prepared another list of unsettling photographs from the r/OddlyTerrifying subreddit. Whatever, I wasn’t planning on sleeping tonight anyway. Let’s scroll down and satisfy our morbid curiosity together, pandas! And to know more about why we’re so into recreational horror, read our interview with American Literature lecturer Dr. Kevin Corstorphine.

There's certainly something to be said about why people actively seek out and are fans of horror. There seems to be something about scary things that draws people in. It can’t be just the fact that people like to be scared, right? Bored Panda spoke about the specifics of horror with Dr. Kevin Corstorphine, lecturer in American Literature at the University of Hull.

Dr. Corstorphine says that one of the reasons we like horror is because of its soothing element. This might sound counterintuitive, but scary things might provide comfort to us. “Being scared is thrilling,” Corstorphine says, “but I think that most people who really enjoy horror and actively seek it out find an element of solace in it. Horror is unfortunately a part of life, and fiction lets us explore it and make sense of it somehow.”

Different types of media might scare and terrify us in different ways. An eerie song might unsettle us, a scary book can conjure up different creepy images in our minds. Film, of course, is more explicit, it leaves less to the imagination, and so does photography. Thus sometimes visual media is best at evoking a scare out of us.

Dr. Corstorphine agrees: “Even though a film might have many components that work together, it's interesting that images stick out so strongly for us: Regan's possession in The Exorcist, Carrie dripping with blood at the prom, or even some of the gruesome torture scenes from the Saw films. The visual is definitely the element that stays with us and comes back even if we try to forget about it!”

However, horror is not always as explicit as it is in the Saw franchise. The photos in this list are proof that sometimes things scare or unsettle us even if they’re seemingly mundane. It’s the strangeness we find in ordinary things, what Freud called unheimlich (the unhomely).

Dr. Corstorphine explains the uncanny: “[It’s] that weird mix of the familiar and strange, like when you wake up and just for a second, your dressing gown is a hooded figure standing in your bedroom. In visual art and film, I think this comes across frequently with the look in someone's face, and the eyes in particular. It's that sense that something is not quite right that's so unsettling.”

Dr. Corstorphine’s research interests include horror and Gothic fiction and he has written extensively on authors such as Bram Stoker, H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King. “I'm a big fan of the Evil Dead films, including the latest ones,” he shares his favorites. “It's that mix of body horror, tension, and a bit of humor that works for me.”

Corstorphine is also aware that picking favorite pieces of horror (or any kind of) media is notably personal. “I think there's a nostalgic element to horror films as well: they're bound up with the experiences you've had watching them in a specific time and place,” the academic says.

He also includes the video game franchise Silent Hill amongst his favorites for its inventive visuals. For anyone interested in visual horror, he would also recommend the art of Clive Barker, the creator of the Hellraiser franchise.

The "mist" is caused by the incredibly high levels of salinity (salt) I believe. Essentially, the water is so salty that salt can no longer dissolve into it, so it pools here.

“Adrenaline junkies” get an adrenaline rush from the recreational fear experience and seek it on purpose. This heightens their mood as the endocrine system releases cortisol and noradrenaline as well, resulting in a kind of high, driven by experiencing fright.

Very sad story. He starved to death because he couldn't get across the river back to safety. If he'd had a map, he would have known that there was a river crossing less than a mile from where he was. People have died making pilgrimages to the bus he died in, so they had to remove it a few years ago.

“White knucklers” tend to look for that sweet spot that is neither too scary, nor too boring. They usually employ humor or try to lessen their exposure to the frightening stimuli. Thus they’re more motivated by self-learning than attaining some sort of high from adrenaline.

Lastly, “dark copers” are the closest to what Dr. Corstorphine described. Through frightening stimuli, they’re able to challenge themselves and challenge their fears in order to deal with their anxieties in the real world. The researchers at the Recreational Fear Lab found that horror fans are more resilient psychologically, as was proved in the beginning of the 2020 pandemic.

Its both. Shiva (male presenting) and Shivani/Ma Shakti Devi (female presenting) are the same entity/god. It represents the duality of the god as both creator and destroyer. You cannot have one without the other. Any act of creation is destroying something at the same time. You cannot have one gender without the other. Most of the time, statues are male to focus on its primary aspects but there are plenty of female statues too.

Had an extremely similar experience. I have a first floor room at the front of the house and one late night (2-3 am) while I was up studying all of a sudden a torch light beam started moving from one end of my room’s windows to the other as if someone was trying to see inside my room. Scared the hell out of me. Thinking someone was in our yard, I ducked down and literally crawled to my parents room. My dad proceeded to stupidly open the front door to talk to those who shone the light. Luckily they claimed to be two policemen looking for a particular address. They left after asking us for directions but part of me feels like they weren’t real police. How would policemen not know where to find an address and even if they didn’t know, it doesn’t sound like a good idea to visit a random house at night to ask for directions. Also I didn’t hear any vehicle which is weird cause why would they be looking for a random house at 2-3 am on foot??

I'm not sure what this one is showing us. North Koreans do not have internet access even in Pyongyang, as far as I'm aware. The real terrifying part is when you look outside of NK's capital. Pyongyang is a misdirection tactic used to prevent the world from questioning what goes on in the rest of Kim's (and the previous Kim, and the Kim before him) dictatorship. It serves a "look here, not over there!" purpose. Hence, all the pomp, circumstance, pageantry, and opulence. Anything outside of Pyongyang is a veritable desolate wasteland where the people live in the worst type of poverty and crimes against humanity imaginable, electricity is turned on and off at random, food is scarce and citizens often resort to eating insects or soil for nutrients, and the Kim Dynasty has been enacting a - quite literal - genocide against its people for over 80 years. The scary part of NK is not Pyongyang. It's everywhere else.

Horsehair worms. They are parasites that live inside of usually grasshoppers, beetles, and praying mantises. What they do is both grotesque and fascinating. As they grow, they takeover the entire inside of the host, eating everything in the body until they reach the brain. Once they gain control of the command center of their host, they compel it to seek out a body of water and drown itself so that they can leave the host's body. In other words, insects infected with horsehair worms are essentially zombies stumbling around with no control over their own bodies. Terrifying.

Poor creatures. Apparently, their blood which is bright blue when exposed to the air is used in the testing of vaccines (according to google), hence them being bled like this.

Ella Harper born 1870 with this condition where her legs bent the wrong way. She went around on all fours. She appeared in the circus as ‘Camel Girl’ which earned her enough to live on. She was eventually able to quit the circus and marry as she always hoped.
