The world's brimming with unexplainable horrors. Fortunately, we're able to live a whole lot of life that isn't bombarded by unexplainable moments that can instantaneously turn the world as we know it upside down. With that being said, maybe these people's stories of their own terribly creepy experiences will make you feel better about any moments that left you with a sick feeling in your gut.

With the power to post weird things for sale online comes absolutely zero responsibility for the quality of that garbage people try to sell online. Whether it's someone trying to make a quick buck on a unique Dorito or someone else trying to get rid of an absolutely terrifying amount of baby teeth, it's the wild west out there. You hope they're all jokes, but some definitely have too much going on not to be legit.

We live with more than a few cartoonish dangers in our world. There's loose monkeys, plants that only exist to inflict pain, and brain amoebas. There are cliffs, falling rocks, and every manner of potential electrocution. If not for these creepy signs that make their message clear, we'd be having that much harder a time. While terrifying signs are first and foremost helpful things, that doesn't mean they're not real spooky.
Sure, some creepy signs can ruin the mood, but reading a sign that says "beware of flaming sinkhole" is a whole lot more convenient than falling into one and having all of your clothes burned off while your crush watches and laughs. Just kidding, you'd probably just burn to death. Anyway, the lesson is that we all have something to gain from terrifying signs that speak the language of fear.
Fear is the oldest emotion there is. And with that, there's a lot of stuff out there to feel weird and uncomfortable about. It doesn't even take that much for us to find something amiss. A misplaced balloon or a little too much smile in a dog's eye can have our minds spiraling over what's wrong. It doesn't even have to be all that sinister in the case of cursed images of internet weirdness.

Every so often, inanimate objects have a whole lot of personality. What starts as a leaf or pile of bubbles can look like a really cool guy. Honestly there are some piles of rocks out there who seem like a great hang. Sometimes inanimate objects just look like other stuff. Deceptive little inanimate objects, trying to trick us. Go back to being things, stuff.
Nighttime has an uncanny knack for making a whole lot of everyday things seem exponentially creepier than if you'd simply seen them when it's light out. Our nerves can tend to be on edge when we're situated somewhere between the land of dreams and the waking state. With all of that being said, there's no getting around the fact that having a bear cruise up to your tent to press its nose up against your humble abode would be just a bit off-putting.
Life is full of hazards and not every single one has a creepy warning sign to go with it. Even something as simple as a slug or a toothache is enough to put a person in the ground, and while it's unlikely to happen, it's important to know what we're all getting into on a daily basis. Stuff is just surprisingly dangerous, man.

They say that fear is the oldest feeling there is. They probably didn't have decaying puppets or underwater clowns in the dawn of man, but holy hell do they do the job. On second thought, maybe primordial clowns came from the sea just like us? Long, wet clowns with gills that honked. Maybe it's best not to think about it. From the world's cursed images to the necessary but ominous signs we use to warn each other of real danger, there's some spooky crap out there, man.
There's nothing quite like a fresh batch of glitch in the matrix moments to send you off on a disorienting reality trip where you might be left with your head in your hands, shakily wondering whether or not this is some grand simulation. Well, simulation or not we've still got to play the game. If it were a simulation, it's kind of "nice" to know that whoever/whatever is running said simulation is also prone to fails just like the rest of us measly human beings.

While it'd be wildly easy to fake this whole situation, it's kind of a fun idea to entertain. Honestly, this video reminds us of that recent post about the dude who very well might've wandered into an artificial, government fabricated town. Like, if you ever find yourself in that situation, do you just proceed to have as much fun as possible with it, or what? I feel like that's the move. Shout out to TikToker @kilianandmaruta for this video though.

They say what you don't know can't hurt you, but that line of logic doesn't work when it comes to exposed wires, sinkholes, hidden explosive ordinance, and bears. Also poison ivy, quicksand, riptides, monkeys and poison gas. Oh yeah, plus geese, shooting ranges and nuclear runoff. But that's close to all of it. Maybe. Either way these creepy signs made their message clear.
The internet is home to some of the most cursed and weird images around, and it's becoming home to more and more every day. Save for the rare blursed image, you can expect to be weirded out with an unbreaking flow of unsettling strangeness whenever you want. That's a good thing, right?

The Huntsman Spider can effortlessly make your skin crawl. This woman however is strikingly fearless. There are probably a fair amount of people out there that would deem their cars cursed, and never plan to set foot in them again after encountering a monstrous Huntsman Spider. But she's just chilling with the whole thing.
There are definitely fake towns out there, but the specifics of how staffed they might be is up for investigation. How does it feel to walk around in a government fabricated ghost town? Is security for these places really so bad that random people can just accidentally wander in? Wouldn't put it past 'em. It ranks up there with creepy moments people won't forget anytime soon.
The sea is just too big for people not to have complicated feelings about, especially when it comes to things like the still on-patrol submarines of the U.S. Navy. There are tales of hallucinations, weird natural events, and rare sightings among the many creepy things people saw at sea. Maybe it's the isolation. Maybe it's the constant bobbing and omnipresent exhaustion of anyone working at sea. Whatever it is, weird stuff happens out there.
