10. Shrunken Heads Before we even get started on shrunken heads,
we have to mention the shrunken head guy on Beetlejuice.. You know who I'm talking
about? Those eyes.. haha.. Ehm.. Ok, anyways.. Here is a creepy example of real
headhunting. This is an original photograph, circa 1890, of Horatio Gordon Robley, and his
incredibly bizarre collection. This man was a collector of preserved heads known as Mokomokai,
which were the severed heads of the Māori, the indigenous Polynesian people of New Zealand.
Back then, it was common practice for competing tribes to shrink their enemies heads and sell them
to tourists. Perhaps what's more creepy is that not many laws exist banning the possession or sale
of these skulls. Meaning you can own one today if you wanted, but expect to be out a few $1,000.
9. Boneyards These American soldiers are playing around with
human skulls. The boneyard they’re located in has skeletons that were dug up from their graves,
which if you ask me is a really bad idea. I get angry when someone wakes me up from a good nap,
I can’t imagine how I’d feel if someone took me away from the ultimate rest. Apparently,
locals and tourists quickly got over it and it’s a popular tourist spot now. I hope they don’t
take home any bad energies... 8. 21st Century Scare
A lot of times we think the scary things we find in photos only come from film cameras
or even old digital ones. We forget, though, that hauntings don’t care about our technology
and will show up anytime, anywhere. Like in this photo taken with a smartphone of a seemingly
normal evening. A woman in her living room going about everyday life. But,
what’s this in the corner? A man standing in a suit that seems to fit nothing else in the photo
and the woman says there was nothing actually there. Who is he and why is he here?
7. Group Photo This group of teenagers were just hanging out,
the little girl sticking around to see what they were up to. When they decided to take a
photo to remember the moment, the little girl wouldn’t stop crying, she said she was scared
of the little boy. The kids thought nothing of it, since kids say weird things all the time.
When they saw the picture though, they certainly found out exactly what she was talking about...
6. Nun Photo This photo of a nun in the early
1900s is off right from the start. The very moment you look at it, it’s off-putting. She’s smiling,
completely unaware, standing outside some sort of estate. She genuinely looks happy or amused.
I doubt that feeling stuck around when she got a look at that photograph. The figure that appears
seems to be reaching out to grab her arms, perhaps to ask for help or keep her from going inside.
The story behind this photo is a mystery, but just one look and you know it’s full of sadness.
5. Townhall Haunting In this town in Spain,
there’s a well-known secret. Late at night, when everyone has gone home, a little girl
roams the halls, walks around, and cries a little. No one knows who she is or where she came from,
but after one man working overtime snapped a shot of the hallway where he heard the sounds,
others have come forward with their experiences too. The reason is a total mystery, but the photo
of the doll-looking child is incredibly haunting. 4. The Face
At first glance, this photo is only scary because there’s an extra set of feet at the bottom. No
body to match, all the faces of the people who are supposed to be in the photo are there, unbothered.
Then you look again and you see that there’s an extra sliver of a face by the man’s hip.
It’s eerie and a little mischievous and I will never forget it as long as I live.
3. Wedding Photos You Can’t Use Nothing like getting a bad photographer
for your wedding, right? This wedding party has a photo they won’t be forgetting
and not for the good reasons you expect at a celebration like this. Off to the side of the
photo is a woman dressed in all black, unusual for a wedding, slightly elated off the ground,
certainly unusual for any occasion, and oh yeah, she has no upper body. So, I’m going
to go ahead and call it an apparition. It’s said the photo was taken at a farm
previously owned by a woman named Margaret Moth, whose lower half sure looks a lot like this one.
2. Selfie Gone Wrong This woman, quirky and happy, used an old film
camera to take said selfie. After looking at the results, well, let’s just say she probably slept
with one eye open for the rest of her life. Out from the side of her head is the smallest bit of
a hood, a very pale face, and an eye holding more evil than I’ve ever seen. Was the figure in the
room where she took the photo? Was it following her? Is this the only photo where she’s seen it?
I almost don’t want to know the answers. 1. The Realest Fear
This photo, though it has no supernatural element to it, is maybe the scariest one I’ve ever seen.
At first glance, it looks a bit like science fiction. This isn’t another planet, it’s not
the set of a movie. It’s Chernobyl, Ukraine during the nuclear crisis.
A man is there on a mission. Nuclear specialists and even everyday workers and miners volunteered
to pitch in to stop the spread of the unbelievably high radiation, essentially offering their lives
to save thousands of others. In fact, many of the volunteers lived very short lives,
succumbing to cancer and other related illnesses. Many of the workers who were there on the day of
the incident died just weeks later. Thanks for watching.. We hope you'll forgive us, for any
