35 Creepy Facts About The World That You Might Be Better Off Not Knowing

ADVERTISEMENT

Though the sensation has probably been around since our ancestors developed emotions, it wasn't until the middle of the 19th century that we started describing the uncanny as something that gives us "the creeps." Charles Dickens, who enriched the English language with plenty of new words and expressions, is credited with the first use of the phrase in his 1849 novel 'David Copperfield,' to mean an unpleasant, tingly chill up the spine.

A few days ago, Reddit user Mimiqttt set out to find out what the definition means to different people, and posted a question on the platform, asking, "What are some creepy facts you know?" From natural phenomena to the biological workings of our bodies, here are some of the most popular answers they've received.

Hearing is the last sense you lose before dying.

d**konajunebug:

My dad is a retired EMT/Paramedic/fire-fighter. Years ago he told be about a guy in cardiac arrest that they brought back to life. The guy ended up coming by the station a few weeks later to thank my dad personally because he had heard - while dead - someone say it was time to call it but my dad said to keep trying.

That story has terrified me. To know you’re dead, but not quite dead, and hear other people call it before you’re fully gone. Geesus, no thank yo.

Your eyes have their own immune system that works separately from your body’s immune system. If your body’s immune system found out it would attack your eyes. I read this here and at my last eye appointment I asked if it was true. The eye doctor said “Yeah, it’s kinda weird” and I was like “Kinda?”

Your immune system can just decide that the rest of your body is offensive and goes on the attack. I have this with psoriasis which started as flaky skin and now has become psoriatic arthritis where my fingers, hands and feet are unreliable because my body decided that my body is a foreign object.

Just after their WWII surrender, the Japanese government created a system of brothels in case American soldiers thought of taking out frustrations on Japanese women. After the rate of STI's shot up among American GI's the Army made the Japanese government shut them down, the number of *reported* r*pes went up by 800%. Take note that Japan is a very traditional society with plenty of stigma about reporting rape so the actual numbers were probably even more horrific.

Cotard’s syndrome is a condition where you just think you’re dead or don’t exist. People who have it sometimes stop eating because they think they’re dead.

PurdueJohn:

Similarly there are high anxiety conditions of depersonalization and derealization, where someone doesn't believe the world around or them exists or are real at all, or that they don't exist themselves. My daughter had this when she was young. Quite unsettling.

When salmon begin their famous spawning run, they shut down unnecessary systems so they can channel all of their energy into swimming upstream to mate. That includes the immune system, so spawning salmon are highly susceptible to disease and infection. They basically start to rot before they die. You can see many discolored salmon during their run, and there are even some missing pieces of their bodies.

I read about this last year. We are recent transplants to the PNW, so this is all new to me. My daughter and I went to a nearby creek this week to see if the salmon were still doing their thing. Sure enough, we saw one swimming upstream with a big, gaping hole in its back, complete with visible flesh and stringy white things protruding from it. It was awful, but we couldn't look away, either.

She asked me not to cook salmon for dinner this week. It's one of my favorite meals, but...yeah, I'm good for now.

mummy brown--or Egyptian Brown--is an old pigment that the pre-Raphaelites used for paintings. it's a rich color that was made from myrrh, pitch, and the decayed flesh of humans (yup, mummies). artists, for a very long time, did not know the contents of said pigment and we're turned off by it by 1915 because they found it gross and despicable.

still, a plenty of famous works feature a paint that is essentially dried-up human tissue.

Hundreds of people die every year… from being strangled by their bedsheets.

GlitzBlitz:

I had a heavy blanket that was pretty much coming apart at the seams. The lining was detaching from the blanket itself.

I woke up one morning and found my son’s head/neck completely entangled in the detached lining. I shook him in a panic and he woke up confused but fine.

It looked like if someone had actually taken the thing and tried to strangle him with it. I threw that thing straight in the garbage.

LakotaWolf (she/her) 12 months ago

My life was destroyed on Thanksgiving Day, year 2000. My dad was putting up Xmas lights after we ate our meal. He fell off of the ladder, crushed his skull, and sustained a catastrophic brain injury. His body lived, but I lost my beloved father that day. Not only did it destroy his life (he was only 58) but it destroyed mine as well, as my mother decided selfishly to ignore my father’s well-known wishes not to be kept alive in a near-vegetative state. We took care of my dad at home. I loved him, but I lost my 20s and 30s to caring for him. I never moved out, never married, never got a normal job. He died in 2021. I held his hand as he died. My mother refused to even be present. I have never forgiven her for any of this. And I miss my dad terribly. My mother’s a toxic narcissist; my dad was a wonderful dad. Hug your loved ones, everyone. Regret is a bítch, I should know.

Im so sorry! My life was destroyed on September 11th 2018. I was only 8 years old(yes im only 13. Another reason to not be mean to me lol.)We went to visit my family in a different country, and my dad left to go back to the US for work reasons. The last time i saw him was the morning he left, and i just woke up so it wasnt even a proper goodbye. A week later my mom also left because of "passport problems"(i dont really remember.) All i do remember is that my dad and my mom left, and me and my little brother stayed with my moms mom for a few more weeks, until my dads mom came, and we went on a train to go to my dads mom's apartment. At some point on the train, i feel asleep and when i woke up it looked like my dads mom had been crying. I asked her what was wrong, and she said that ill find out. I forget about it, and and a few hours later, its around 11 pm, we get to her apartment, and call my mom on skype. During that call, i ask "where's dad?" And she told me that he was murdered.

Death was something i barley understood, and the most it had ever affected me at the time was one of my friends dogs dying. It didnt seem real to me at the time. But then it sank in. Me and my grandma spent all night crying. My dad had died on August 24th, and i didnt even know for over 3 weeks. My mom was in no condition to take care of me and my little brother who at the time was only 18 months old, and me and my younger brother were with different grandparents. A few days later, i had to start going to a new school. With everyone speaking a language I barely knew. And i couldn't even go to the same school as my cousins. I had to endure failing for the first time, bullying for the first time, and i found out how cruel life can be at only 8 years old. After months of this, my mom came back and took me home. I started going to my old school again, and i had to deal with rumors and bullying all over again, but it was worse this time. Because these were people that used to be my friends.

I'm so sorry for your loss and cannot start to envisage what you went through at that time, however, you HAVE moved on and understand why you feel as you do, as you explained. I think it's time for you to close that chapter of your life, get rid of any regrets you have (having regret only damages you) and move on with your life, above all focus on yourself, f**k everyone else, enjoy yourself in whatever way you can, you will be in a happier place, trust me (didn't go through what you did but had a pretty s****y 10 years where pretty much everything that could go wrong, did. I'm still here, happy, drinking too much, being a bit too grouchy, but living life at the pace I want to and doing what I want, within reason.) Good luck, you are loved and supported.

There is a website called The Marshall Project, which, from 2015 to 2021, recorded and counted down the time until execution of every death row inmate in the United States, categorized by state. It was accurate up to the second, and had real-time updates about appeals, stays of execution, time of death, method of execution, etc. It was fascinating and gave me major creeps at the same time. The site is still up, and the records can still be read.

Herculaneum is better preserved than Pompeii it just hasn't been excavated as much.
Pompeii was essentially destroyed by falling volcanic rock, its dead later being buried by ash after rigor had set in.

Herculaneum was destroyed by pyroclastic flows so hot that the liquids in people's bodies turned to vapor and exploded instantly. Brain matter turned into glass. Bone and metal were welded together. All that happened before Pompeii.

Currently, the population in the area is so large that the Italian government is having a hard time deciding whether or not it's worth it to warn or evacuate them or not

I don't know why I find this creepy, but our brain cannot create a new face. Every single person we see in our dreams, is someone we have seen in real life before.

During the embalming process in a funeral home, internal organs are sucked out and replaced with embalming fluid. The organs that are sucked out go right into the sewer system. So not only are dead people's organ bits in the sewers but so too are any medications they were on, diseases they had, etc.

Kind of a head scratcher when you go to a hospital or doctor's office and see the bio hazard waste bins - yet a funeral home, which process a higher volume of bio hazard waste, has no such disposal protocols

Take a lot of these with a grain of salt. Most of them don’t even qualify as factoids; they’re misleading at best and misinformation at worst.

I cannot agree more. This is what happens when one is unable or unwilling to create an original content, but instead just mindlessly copy and paste from random platforms without verification. It says that the author is a writer with a BA in Communication with significant experience. He really should have known better.

The amount of time it takes for pain to make it from your skin to your brain (so you actually sense the pain) is more than the time it took for the Oceangate sub to implode. Which means that one moment in time these folks were there, thinking, breathing, hearing the creaking, scared out of their minds. Then, they just weren't there at all. They didn't know that the sub had imploded because it took less time for the hull of the sub to reach their brains than the nerve impulses did.

Really? I have wondered about that. Might have the captain heard it first, freaked out, but it was already too late? Or what if they all did know it was coming and knew they only had minutes or seconds to live?
