Healer The Friendly Ghost
A woman was deep in meditation when a curious photographer noticed that it might be a perfect frame to capture. The photographer sprung to action, knowing he had snapped a score. Unknowingly, the fellow had captured a unique presence not visible to the naked eye.
Once the photo was developed, an odd-looking shape could be pictured in the background. Typically, we'd assume that another person was sitting behind the lady, but the photographer and the subject were adamant they had been alone. Upon further investigation, a priest revealed that it was just the resident ghost healer doing her thing.
Time Out
Looking through history books is akin to stepping through a time machine as you get to see everything that took place way before you were born. In this case, though, someone must have taken things a step further by literally traveling through time to witness a historic moment in person.
When the Golden Bridge was being opened in Canada, someone took a photo to capture the moment. Then, several decades after the iconic moment, someone noticed an odd figure lurking within the crowd. Unlike everyone else in the group, this fellow had sunglasses, modern-day attire, and a portable camera. Maybe this is proof of the existence of time travel.
Space Cadet
Space is mysterious, and many people look to the stars hoping to see an alien or proof of an advanced civilization. Sadly, that's not as easy as it sounds, and all we have to go by is our imagination and various conspiracy theories. Unsurprisingly, there's something odd happening a lot closer to home than we think.
A legendary object known as the Black Knight orbits our planet and is estimated to be several millennia old. Some scientists believe it even transmits data into the planet. No one knows where it came from or whom it belongs to, making some people think it's evidence of an advanced race.
Invisible Supporter
Ghosts might be real, after all, and they love to prank people. If this image is anything to go by, we can safely say the realm of the supernatural is not far away as we might think. Photography might be the necessary tool needed to pull the veil and help us communicate with the other side.
This image might seem ordinary at first glance, but upon closer inspection, you'll be mortified to notice a mysterious thumb floating between the two boys on the far right. Of course, this might be a hoax as one cheeky boy could have snuck behind his pals to stage this. Even so, what if it's real?
Lights Lights Confusion
Almost everyone with an internet connection knows about the Northern Lights. This spectacular natural showcase has put Norway on the travel plans of numerous backpackers. Surprisingly, the Northern lights are not the only light phenomenon in the country. There's another showcase display known as the Hessdalen Lights, and these are as odd as they are enchanting.
Unlike the Northern Lights that have been around forever, the Hessdalen lights began showing up in the '40s and can be seen about 20 times a year. No one has any logical or scientific explanation as to their occurrence since they happen to be quite erratic and very distinct from their counterparts.
Her Spirit Protector
The person who took this photo is no spirit photographer, but it may have captured the image of someone long gone. This old woman appeared to be drinking a cup of coffee or tea when someone took a snap of her. She smiled for the camera, clueless of what would be the outcome.
Upon examining the photo, later on, an image of a man appeared behind the lovely lady. What's spine-chilling about this photograph is that the mysterious man looks so much like the woman's deceased husband. It had been thirteen years since he passed on when this picture was taken, making this even more hair-raising. It seems that hubby didn't want to let go of his love yet.
That's No Shark!
When people see a giant unknown creature like this, they would likely run away. On the other hand, Robert Le Serrec was not the least bit scared and instead took photos of the tadpole-like life form. Le Serrec and his family spent an extended vacation on Hook Island when they encountered an immobile strange object on the lagoon floor.
It was about 30 feet long and looked like a tadpole, so naturally, they took many pictures. When the head of the family decided to take a closer inspection underwater, the creature, later known as the Hook Island Sea Monster, opened its mouth. It's a good thing it turned away after and left!
An Aerial Battle
One famous photograph of an apparent UFO sighting is this, fittingly called the 'Battle of Los Angeles.' Despite the name, though, no clash or fight took place between humans and aliens. As it happened, the logical explanation for this event is the combination of faulty radar systems and trigger-happy servicemen.
The military was on high alert for a possible Japanese attack when the incident took place. There were no UFOs in this photo, only shapes, and images formed from a barrage of anti-aircraft fire mixed with powerful searchlights. Luckily, no serious injuries were reported from friendly fire, only damages to homes and buildings.
The Mystery Of The Mummified Finger
We have always been fascinated with myths about giants, hence the popularity of tales like 'Jack and the Beanstalk' and Roal Dahl's 'The BFG.' Still, what if they were real? What if giants walked the earth thousands of years ago but became extinct like Dinosaurs and Mammoths?
Nothing is impossible, and a potential clue to the existence of the enormous beings may be this photo. Discovered by a gravedigger, this mummified finger is said to be 15 inches long. A comparison with a banknote was made to prove how big it is and that it couldn't have been from a normal-sized person.
Photobombed By A Spaceman
For many years, the image known as the 'Solway Firth Spaceman' has boggled the mind of many people. Who is he, and what was he doing behind Elizabeth Stapleton? This mysterious photo began circulating after Jim Stapleton reported the anomaly to the police, and the newspaper 'Cumberland News' published the story.
As the story goes, the firefighter took photos of his little girl while on a day trip to the Burgh Marsh. Aside from his daughter, Stapleton's wife and a couple of old women were the only people there. Additionally, when the photograph was taken, no one was standing behind Elizabeth. Still, when the film was developed, a strange man appeared and was dubbed the 'Solway Firth Spaceman.'
Proof Of Life?
As it is, experts have not found any proof of life on the planet Mars. Several scientific searches were made to find something that would prove living matter existed there, even if only in the past. Nevertheless, pieces of evidence showed that the planet's surface once had liquid, which microorganisms could have inhabited.
One more thing that could probably show the promise there could be life forms on Mars is this mysterious photo. One of the rovers on its terrain captured this snapshot of light coming from the other side of a valley. Without any idea of where the gleam came from, we humans can only come up with wild ideas.
Lighthouse Sighting
Even though lighthouses still aid sea voyagers today, modern technology has provided a more convenient alternative for navigation safety. Yet, despite being outdated, the structures still charm people, especially when wrapped up in mystery, like the one in this photo.
As it was told, a cell phone tower technician asked for his picture to be taken atop a 300-foot tower with the old St. Augustine Lighthouse in the background. Along with the subject, the camera also captured the silhouette of a woman on top of the watchtower. It's really not surprising to see something like this on the structure because people have reported many strange phenomena that have occurred there since it was built in 1737.
Something Lurks In The Dark
At first glance, this is only an ordinary photo of three people. That is until we look closely and see a strange silhouette in the background. The shape appears to be that of a woman wearing a dress with one hand placed on her hips. If we let our imagination run wild, we would see this as a ghost apparition.
Perhaps the lady lived in the 1900s, with how her dress was shaped, belted at the waist. She was disturbed by these guys who decided to play with their cameras at night. That space was her territory, and they invaded it, hence the positioning of her hands as if she was pissed.
Our Lady of the Flying Saucer
This painting's name is 'Madonna and Child with the Infant St. John.' Still, many in Italy affectionately refer to it as "Madonna dell'UFO," which translates to "Our Lady of the Flying Saucer." It is displayed at the Hercules Room of the Palazzo Vecchio if people want to see it in person.
Naturally, many want to examine it, especially with the mystery that surrounds it. Even though its origins and artist is unknown, it dates back to as early as the sixteenth century. What's mind-blowing about this work of art is the ellipsoidal object in the sky that looks like a UFO. Flying saucer sightings became a thing hundreds of years after that painting was made!
Upside Down
Let's admit it; this photograph takes the cake for the scariest ghost sighting. It wasn't enough for this spirit to show itself; it pushed the horrifying envelope further by appearing upside down! We can imagine how petrified the photographer was after seeing the developed picture. Yet, despite many people being convinced this was a legitimate ghost, others believe someone just pulled a prank.
Additionally, some individuals felt this was a result of issues encountered during the development process. Nevertheless, ghost believers think it's probably the image of the past owner of the house, who was long gone when the picture was taken. He probably didn't like that strangers were living in his home.
Way Out Of Reach
Some discoveries are awe-inspiring, while others are simply out of this world. Then others are just downright absurd and unexplainable. Like this car, sitting pretty in a tree as if that's where it's meant to be.
How did the car get up there? And how is it ever going to get down? It's really hard to explain. What even makes this situation more interesting is the man posing right in front of that tree, acting like everything's fine, and it's just another typical day in his life. If he's the vehicle owner, then he's definitely too calm for what's going on behind him.
Not An Ordinary Day with A Feline Friend
We are accustomed to seeing people casually taking walks with their fur friends, especially dogs. But there might be a challenge to the phrase "a dog is man's best friend" in this photo. This gentleman is spotted on the street with a leash on a lion! If that is not out of the norm, we do not know what is!
There is no cause for alarm, though, as the big cat appears completely Zen and relaxed. It may have taken a bit of getting used to owning such a huge feline, but it does seem like the human and animal share a bond now. We will try not to look startled as we cross the street and spot them.
A New Tree Occupant
Wait, we thought trees were home to birds, insects, and some land animals? So, what is an elephant doing up there? And more importantly, how did it get up there?
For one, that must be one sturdy tree. It's not every day you see a plant that can hold the weight of an animal that weighs way more than a ton. Then, we can only guess what made this creature believe that a tree would make a better home for it. Perhaps a change of lifestyle? Or was it invited to a tree party? Only if the elephant could talk; then we'd be able to get all our answers.
An Unusual Relationship
We've seen it all - a weird and unusual relationship between two items. Some elements shouldn't go together, but earth and the people in it have quite a sense of humor.
So when we saw this tire beneath a tree with wide branches, we stared for a while, trying to understand the logic behind the relationship. Which came first, the tire or the tree? Has the tire always been there, and the plant grew afterward? Or was the tire stretched over the tree's branches to sit at the bottom? Well, unless we find someone who knows the history of this plant, we can only make assumptions.
The Giant Stack
Artists are really creative beings, and their ability to think outside the box is one of the things that make them such talented humans in the first place. This is why artist Doris Salcedo will forever go down in history as one man who allowed his creative juice to push him to do something as grand as this.
Doris artistically put together stacks of chairs, about 1,550 pieces, and created this huge chair mountain. While some may initially think that this is simply a dumping site for chairs, we would have you know that Doris knew what he was doing when he created this masterpiece.
Human Cushion for The Electric Wheelchair
The human mind is quite impressive for the inventions it can envision and at times even actualize. A look at this electric wheelchair is a good example of such. We love the colorful addition of the umbrella because it shields the woman riding on it from the weather.
That is until we take a second glance at the whole thing and realize that there is more to the contraption than meets the eye. In the place of a seat is another woman, contorted in a position that we certainly could not imagine possible for the human body. It is impressive how flexible the lady is, and we hope she makes a comfortable human cushion.
A Late Night Visitor
Once it's nighttime, we hardly expect anyone to come calling. Still, we know that late-night visitors sometimes appear at our front door, and some even show up unannounced.
This woman from Florida had one such visitor, only that this time, the guest was in her backyard and not at her doorstep. She grabbed her camera and ran out to find out who it was, but the creature in her backyard was anything but human. A couple of shots of this animal got people talking for days. What kind of beast was that? A skunk ape? A black bear? No one could tell. Strange things really do happen in the night.
17th Century Swiss
There's usually something exciting to discover in a sealed tomb - a rare gem, an ancient scroll, the remains of a late emperor, and so on. Now, no one thought they'd find a watch in the 17th-century crypt - not even the archeologists who discovered it.
The first thing you should know is that watches weren't in existence 400 years ago, and that's what makes the whole situation surprising. What's more? It was a Swiss watch, and its hands were stuck at 10:06. Now we're wondering, did the people back then have wristwatches? Or did a time traveler leave the item behind? Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you another unexplainable occurrence.
A Possible Martian?
Mars has always been deemed inhabitable, but lately, scientists and outer space explorers have been seeing signs that there might just be aliens - Martians - on the planet.
On one of the missions to discover new things about the planet, the router picked up a funny ring of circles. While that wasn't a big deal, the shock came days later when a new stone was added to the collection, and this time, it was placed in the middle of the ring. Honestly, that arrangement looked too deliberate to be anything but coincidence. It makes us wonder if there's life on Mars after all.
Dinosaurs Among Us
Dinosaurs were supposed to be extinct millions of years ago, yes? So, how come there are modern-day pictures of these supposedly extinct creatures?
The first siting was the picture some army officers took with a pterodactyl. Then there are other photos that prove that these big and powerful creatures might have existed longer than we thought. Still, some believe that those pictures were edited, and there's absolutely no way there'd be a dinosaur in the modern world. Sadly, there's no way we'd confirm that. We simply have to make do with what we have. It would be nice to have those creatures among us, though.
A Final Appearance
Once upon a time, there was a military mechanic named Freddy Jackson. Freddy lost his life on duty during World War One, and naturally, he had to be buried. Afterward, his coworkers gathered for a group photograph, and all was well until they got the picture.
Wait, was that Freddy Jackson in the photo? The man whose body they placed in the ground, whose funeral they had attended? These questions and many more must have plagued the minds of these army officers and everyone else who knew that Freddy shouldn't have been in that picture. Well, it could have been a lookalike or the military mechanic making one final appearance.
An Unsolved Case
Elisa Lam's final moments are one of the most talked-about in the world. Considering the fact that the footage of the incident was unclear and left more questions than answers, it's really no wonder.
From the motion picture, it seemed like Elisa was hiding from someone, going in and out of the elevator, and making some weird gestures. Still, she was the only one in the area - no one else appeared in the video. Days later, the Canadian's body was found. Many had speculations after the video was released - some said the lady had some psychological issues while others felt the footage was tampered with. Till today, the case remains a mystery.
The Reigning Dog Master
What if humans have it wrong in thinking that they are masters to the lovable pets they own? Well, this photo may be evidence of that premise because we have a soldier saluting a group of dogs. Moreover, there is a dog in the middle that appears to be worshipped by all others, almost like it is their alpha!
Seriously though, we can’t seem to figure this image out. The animated film ‘The Secret Life of Pets’ may have been onto something about these animals having other lives outside of their owners.’ Either way, the picture is a pleasing visual for us, and may the paw leader reign always!
Aqua Man Auditions?
The weather can be a cause of changes in schedules especially workout routines. From this photo, it does appear that the downpour was so intense, even the bus got stuck. But that does not seem to have stalled the jogger from their morning run.
It almost looks like the image is photoshopped because of how comical the guy looks taking such big leaps in the floodwater. The mystery man is even wearing flippers and swimming goggles. From where we are, we could assert that there are some Aqua man auditions that this champ is hurrying to get to and is getting real practice for! That is not too far-fetched, is it?
The Lady from The Future
Charlie Chaplin’s humor has been a timeless global sensation for a long time now. We all enjoy the laughter that rings in our houses as we watch the host of films that the silent comedic featured in. That was until somebody pointed out an unusual thing in the 1928 opening scene of one of these.
There seems to be a lady walking across the street talking in what appears to be a cell phone. It is quite bizarre because these gadgets did not exist in the 1920s! Could this woman be a time traveler? We do have to wonder if she has come from the future with some funny material for Chaplin’s skits?
What Is That?
One of the most beautiful sights is to witness the full moon on a dark night, but things don't end at its majestic beauty. Our moon has been the basis of a lot of weird speculations, and if the moon landing controversy was not enough, we have this photo to puzzle our minds even more.
When the Apollo 11 mission landed back on Earth, it brought back a lot of things with it, including this picture where we can see a weird structure. While 'NASA' declared nothing wrong with it, people can't help but notice a design similar to a pyramid.
A Tub To Avoid
One thing we all love on a hot and sunny day more than a refreshing popsicle is a tub or pool of cold water. Imagine walking under the sun with sweat dripping all over us, and we suddenly see a tub of water at some distance.
Anybody would run towards it, right? However, we would freeze as soon as we saw these three giant cats peeking from the rim of the tub. The thing that surprises us the most is that the picture is real! We can't imagine how these three got in there, but they seem to be having a lovely time.
How On Earth!
This picture is so weird that we can't comment on it right away. But, first of all, this space seems like a lovely commercial building with a poster in it, so where was the watchman when this horse decided to march inside?
Secondly, who is this man, and why is he lying on the ground? Many would say that the horse might have hurt him, and that's why we can see him on the floor. However, the innocence on the animal's face can't let us believe that the innocent creature could cause any harm. We thank the man who took this picture that we got to see such an unusual event.
Not-So-Scenic Background
This picture seems so lovely, right? A group of friends took a stroll in the midst of the woods on a nice and chilly day. Naturally, this makes us call our friend group and ask them to plan a trip to the woods so that we can also capture pleasant memories together.
We suggest that before packing our bags, we might as well just take a closer look at the picture. After that, we don't think anybody would want to go there and get photobombed by a stranger lurking at the back. It's actually pretty scary if we think about it, because anything could have happened since the man's intentions are not known.
That Is Suspicious
It's not unusual that we see stars making beautiful patterns in the night sky, so why did the people of Phoenix, Arizona, get scared of these lights back in 1997? That is because the stars make the same pattern every single night, and this one was not familiar to any.
We would not give it much attention and think of it as yet another ambitious 'NASA' project to send a bunch of satellites to space if it were of the present time. However, technology was not so advanced back then to create such a visual, which is why this picture is so mysterious.
Unbothered Much
If anyone's first thought after seeing this picture is how odd it is, we concur. Why? Because this is a level of unbothered only a few people can pull. How does anyone pose with a sewing machine and smile this wide in front of an accident scene? They'd have to be nutsy or something.
We are not judging them, though. Who knows, maybe they survived the accident alongside their beloved sewing machine, likely used to sew his sharp suit. Whatever the case, this guy's pose seems to be screaming, "Focus on this gent and his handy white sewing machine." Mission accomplished, young man. Our attention is unshared!
Let It Be A Prank Please
Assuming this isn't a sloth doll, what would someone do if they got to class first and found this creature seated at their desk? We bet they'd scream their hearts out and only scare the animal, making it feel threatened. The only next thing would be for the sloth to use its ready claws, not to write on the notebook but for self-defense, and the results would no doubt be ugly.
Yes, they're quiet creatures and all, but we believe most folks would pass on that fact. No one's ready to share their desk anyway. Well, at least not today, so let it be a doll, please. Let it be someone pulling a prank; we'll take that any day.
Who Knew Bisons Eat Bread Too
We've seen enough photos or videos like this one online which didn't end well to know that we wouldn't try this. We get this guy here was feeling adventurous enough to let the bison through his car window or trying to prove a point, but for what reward exactly?
Imagine for a second its disappointment when the animal found out the guy was playing him or that the piece of bread was the only one there was. He may have charged at the poor guy and knocked his teeth out. Given their unpredictable nature, the bison isn't a good buddy for humans to hang around with. We hope the guy didn't have to find that out the hard way.
We're Old, But That Never Stopped Us
If growing old together means getting to do giddy stuff like this aged couple on the pony ride, we also want in. We imagine the pair dressed up to go on a date around the corner, and what better way to do it than pulling up in a dream chariot?
While it may seem childish and stupid to many, this couple doesn't seem to give a hoot about what anyone thinks. If anything, it looks like something the duo does often to bring back the spark and revel in themselves. Classic case of age never stopping anyone, and we're here for it!
A Human In Animal Form?
Seeing a fox on the line waiting for its turn on the ATM is everything queer one may encounter. We wonder how the lady was able to stand behind it unmoved, but what is even scarier is how an animal would have intuition like that of human beings.
Maybe it's a human in animal form? We have watched enough movies where a person is transformed into an animal every full moon and know that they are purely fictional, but still wonder if it could be a real thing. You know, because this photo will easily tempt anyone into thinking in that direction.
A Pillar Of Light
Some pictures are so astonishing that they look photoshopped or too spectacular to be natural. Well, this image of a beam of light from the sky that forms a pillar takes the prize for being magical.
It appears like a spaceship is taking someone up, or the heavens are sending someone down. We wonder if it is dangerous as a laser or just a light ray that people can pass through. All the same, it must have been terrifying for the drivers, except the one who took the snap as they may have believed that it was the end of days.
Unidentified Object Located
When UFO researcher Donald Keyhoe reported that the U.S. Air Force had detected two satellites, no one on earth had the tech to launch a satellite. So, what exactly did they discover, and why was it orbiting the earth as a satellite would?
This incident occurred in 1954, and until now, no one can say what the object was. The world we live in is full of intelligent humans with mind-blowing innovations, but the fact that nobody had established the knowledge of launching objects into space means that humans probably did not own this one. Since there are no answers yet, we would assume that what was discovered remains unidentified.
The Icy Black Hole
Wintertime can be beautiful, but it comes with the hazard of falling through thin ice or getting frozen. For that reason, anyone who wants to go ice fishing or skating is advised to take precautions and protect themselves by carrying rescue tools or wearing personal flotation devices under their coats.
We strongly believe that nobody would dare thread over this icy pond that looks like a black hole despite all the safety tips. Hence, while this interesting ice formation is nice to look at, it is better to stay away from it before being drawn into a never-ending well of iciness.
Too Late to Walk Away
We have no idea why this guy ever thought he could fit in or make it to the other end. He could have saved himself the embarrassment and others the awkward situation by walking away from the very beginning.
Well, tragedy doesn't ring a warning bell before it strikes, and now this man has to deal with the body pain that will result from getting yanked out. It is definitely an essential lesson to everyone that whenever we feel something isn't right for us, it is better to walk away than be stuck in a situation that requires the fire department to save us.
The Mysterious Eyewitness
For many who did not know who the Babushka Lady is, this image may present a clue as to how she got the nickname. The headscarf she is wearing is similar to those worn by Russian grandmothers, so was named after the Russian word for "grandmother" since her identity was unknown.
During John F. Kennedy's final moments in 1963, video footage captured the mysterious lady very close to the scene as a potent eyewitness. Yet, investigators found it difficult to identify her, and it was even harder to track her down for years. Since pictures don't lie, it remains a mystery why she has no records and can't be found to date.
The Bigfoot Mystery
The Patterson-Gremlin film is among the most iconic documentaries ever made. That's because science is still struggling for answers regarding the existence of the mysterious Bigfoot. The 60-second video offers us a nail-biting glimpse of the gigantic, dark, hairy beast walking into the wild.
Some hypothesized it was a human dressed in a gorilla suit, but scientists have shunned the idea. They believe that the cryptid's postures and walking manner are outright impossible for any man to emulate. Also, one could barely use special effects some half-a-decade earlier to falsify such an event. Maybe they're only another animal dwelling in the forests of California—who knows?
Heavenly Spiral Light
The Arctic sky offers us breathtaking glimpses of the gorgeous Aurora Borealis anyway. So, when people sighted a giant blue and white spiral in the sky which didn't appear like the northern lights, they were pretty surprised. Was it a meteor, fireworks, or some extraterrestrial object? Scientists barely had an answer to it.
Finally, some government agencies ventured to resolve the mystery and declared that the light effect was caused by failed missile experiments. Yet, this doesn't adequately quench the curiosities of many metaphysical enthusiasts. Is it possible for a mere rocket launch failure to cause such an enigmatic unearthly display?
Stay Out Of Libraries, Oreo!
To take a break from paranormal scenes and eerie findings, let's focus on a strange "don't" that this library has introduced. Snacks and gums are never allowed in the reading rooms anyway. Still, we know how sneaking in some cookies, nuts, and candies helps survive the long studying session. Sadly, the members of this library have to rule out the yummy 'Oreos' from that list.
We wonder what these "recent events" are that our favorite sandwich biscuit is so hatefully targeted. One usually expects signages saying "Silence Please" or "No Food Allowed" in the library, but nothing like the one in the photo. Did anybody use an 'Oreo' as a bookmark? We hope not!
The Creepy Hand
A slight glance at this picture will make anyone experience the happy vibe of the gang of girls clicking a photograph together. Yet, what if we said that this very pleasing picture could leave anyone appalled? Yes, indeed! Those who aren't faint-hearted may take a closer look at the right side of the photo and spot the anomaly. Shocking, right?
A mysterious hand on the shoulder of one of the girls makes this image crazy haunted. After all, it is understandable that the wrist can not be that of the girls standing near her. Now, there's undoubtedly no good night's sleep for us!
Unnatural Moving Stones That Defy Science
Imagine a heavy chunk of stone being driven by the wind. Unthinkable, isn't it? Well, something similar happens for real in California's De*th Valley. Besides being famous as the hottest place on the planet, this spot is also known for its sailing rocks. Here, huge boulders drift across the sand without any external force, strictly against Newton's First Law of Motion!
Scientists have been striving to solve the puzzle for decades, but no credible conclusion has been found yet. Looking at the long trail left by the rocks, some opine that it is caused due to the force of the magnetic field created or dust devils. Indeed, nature is an incredible mystery!
