mysterious

We've all seen some strange and totally unprovable things in our lives. There have been times we've sworn we've seen disappearing items, strange premonitions, lights in the sky and weird stuff staring back at us from the darkness. None of them have straightforward explanations, but they're at least interesting. For more unprovable strangeness, here are people's creepiest theories on the nature of reality.

There's something just plain old spooky about discovering a hidden staircase or suspect deadbolt that someone at some point in history went out of their way to hide from everyone. In this case, we're encouraged by the fact that those scratch marks apparently indicate this was likely some tomfoolery. For some more gold from the world of Tumblr, check out this Tumblr post about how spiders rule the world's cranberry bogs.

Recently a mysterious figure using an old TV set as a mask delivered a bunch of old TVs to 50 people's doorsteps. Here's the full Washington Post story, but mostly people were intrigued by the strange nature of the act. The police weren't even sure if any crimes were actually being committed. Is the TV Head Guy just someone who needs to get rid of a bunch of TVs? Is this performance art? Apparently a similar TV doorstep thing has happened in that area in the past, so maybe people will just have to get used to it. Perhaps the creepiness of it is worthy of a cursed image? Either way, anything can happen out there, people see weird and creepy stuff at night.

A recent study published online revealed that something is chilling about 186 miles beneath the surface of the Moon. The Twitter account for the "Destiny" video game had a point to make when CNN tweeted about it, and the thread that ensued was full of gems. 

Do we think this could be the start of something far more extraterrestrial than we ever thought possible? We should just leave that shit on the moon buried and alone. 

Are these unexplained mysteries only unexplained because we haven't tried hard enough to understand them, or is something bigger afoot? You be the judge! Maybe most of these will end up getting debunked in the comments section...

You hear about moments like these all the time. Something just doesn't seem quite right, so you hesitate, prepare, or get the hell outta there. These people had especially vivid moments where their instincts kicked in and they made a decision that ended up saving their skin. Here's more times someone dodged a huge bullet.

Sometimes you see something and with your whole heart and soul you wonder "what the hell is that?" Thanks to the pool of geniuses over at r/whatisthisthing, mysteries like this are posed and solved every day. May the internet make it so that we'll never have to not know anything ever again. Okay, except maybe when you find mysterious items in your dad's toolbox. Maybe it'd be best to not know the truth behind those.
