Ha, that was on facebook awhile ago and after looking for about a minute I decided it was one of those stupid things that doesn't really have anything in it. Guess I was wrong.

On images that don't have something immediately obvious I sit back and check to see if they're a .gif. I won't be burned by a "screamer" type image again!

I had to open it in photoshop and turn up the brightness to actually see it. That always takes away from any potential scare.

   I really like the anguish in this one.  I know this is just some sort of anatomy drawing but something about just makes me think of necromancy.

hyperhazard posted:And this is why I've decided never to surf I know that this picture was a fraud (as far as being a shark goes), but this is the real deal. This happened last year in San Diego almost right outside my front door (not my picture).  I was supposed to go SCUBA diving the day that this happened, and I got a call from my buddy telling me about how the beach was still opened, but they were warning people. No diving for me that day, despite my insanely irrational love of sharks.

   All of Guim Tió Zarraluki's art freaks me out. There's just something so terribly off about the faces.   That's the stuff nightmares are made of.

Abnegatus posted:Alright, so I made this black and white which some would constitute as "creepy". I want to shove something in there, but am unsure what. I tried finding an alien face to throw in the darkness, but I think it looks stupid as hell. Care to give me any recommendations? Things like this really put me on edge because of the placid nature of it. Who knows if that thing is malevolent and there's nothing particularly terrifying about it in the light, but to look up and suddenly see something like that staring through the window... I get the shivers just thinking about it.

Glad to see the Francis Bacon love itt. For those interested in the man, there's a movie about him on Netflix (instant, last time I checked) called Love Is The Devil. Now, I'm posting this both to contribute and in hopes that one of you might know who the artist is  Does anyone know what this terrifying/gorgeous sculpture is?  edit: Turns out I have way more creepy stuff on my computer than I realized.    I have a shitload more supernatural/death/occult-related poo poo I'll post later. Bubble Bathory has a new favorite as of 22:28 on Feb 13, 2012 |

I was always under the impression that this is just a cut-away child's skull, so that you can see the mature teeth that are (were) about to come in. edit: Thanks wheezy. That at least gives me something to go on; I am sometimes woefully ignorant of some aspects of Catholicism, despite how fascinating and generally badassed I find it to be. Holy gently caress, the idea of that being the skull of Mary Magdalene adds that much more creepy weight to that photo. Bubble Bathory has a new favorite as of 23:02 on Feb 13, 2012 |

At first I didn't really see the part where it looks to have been cut away. Either way, interesting! Bad Munki has a new favorite as of 23:30 on Feb 13, 2012 |

There's an add-on for your browser so you can search google with an image. It's really handy when trying to identify a picture.

Bubble Bathory posted:Now, I'm posting this both to contribute and in hopes that one of you might know who the artist is David Kendall - his art reminds me of Chet Zar. I've always found art of Joel-Peter Witkin to be terrifying, obscene and shocking. The same goes for Sławomir Rumiak - but while Witkin deals with grotesque, Rumiak deals with mutilation. They both do realistic photo manipulations, however I can't see the point of such - it's like viewing a dA crap on professional level. On the other hand - I do enjoy Bacon's art. Of course it's weird, but I'd guess it's also true, it reflects his life, his youth and relationships. Dunno. Let me drop links to artists portfolio's that are indeed creepy for this thread: Kris Kuksi, Sanya Glistic and two that I think are the same person: Ana Bagayan, Mark Ryden.

Bubble Bathory posted:Does anyone know what this terrifying/gorgeous sculpture is? It's a reliquary, a decorative container meant to display a piece of a saint or other important religious figure. Having a reliquary was a big draw for a church, so a lot of the 'saint's' bones were actually whatever bones happened to be around.

I'm sure it's been posted several times in this thread so I won't post about that crazy insane Russian Ossuary. Anyway when I was little and had to go to church and sunday school my priest was telling us about relics and stuff. I thought it was so badass from the way he described it, I was thinking of like a fuckin' holy SKULL sitting in a cabinet somewhere repelling demons and poo poo. I asked him if our church had a relic, and indeed it did. I was supposedly one of the finger bones of some saint or something, and no we couldn't see it.
