That's just loving gross. You're supposed to rub the skin with a compound butter and baste every 45 minutes so your eldritch abomination doesn't dry out.

I've had a lot of eldritch abominations and I can tell that one is way overcooked, probably tastes like sawdust

I think the creepiest image I've seen is this polaroid found in the collection of a serial killer and rapist named Dean Corll, featuring a distressed young boy, tied up next to the toolbox in which Corll kept his torture implements. He has never been identified.

(You can see it on the Wikipedia page on Dean Corll.)

There's loads of really gross pictures of stuff like deformities or the aftermath of road traffic accidents that are really disgusting to look at (I don't tend to do so because I have a weak stomach) but stuff like that is on another level for me as far as "creepy" goes.

Another one: in 1988, a teenager named Tara Calico disappeared from her home in New Mexico. About six months later, a discarded photograph - which can be viewed on the linked Wikipedia page - was found in a car park in Florida. It features a boy and a girl bound and gagged. The girl is believed to be Tara Calico. The boy remains unidentified.

That sort of thing makes my skin crawl.

Yea, I first heard about the Tara calico a few weeks ago. Super creepy. Also in the picture is a VC Andrews novel? Who was apparently her favorite author. Whole thing is super unsettling

quote:

“The Nuba Embrace” Several people have asked about the sculpture that has appeared by Copyhold Barn; it is called “The Nuba Embrace” and is by John Buckley. John created the sculpture on his return from a visit to the Nuba Mountains in central Sudan in 2000- 2001 where he was a guest of the Nuba Rehabilitation, Relief and Development Organisation (N.R.R.D.O.) during the time of the genocide. He witnessed first hand a mass attempt to wipe out a cultural identity through ethnic cleansing, slavery and fierce attacks on the traditional homelands. More recently there has been a fragile cease fire in the Nuba Mountains (the same agreement that is currently barely holding in Darfur) and when John returned to the region in January this year he says that, despite the suffering, he experienced a sense of resistance living in everyone he met. John finds it difficult to talk about his work (like most artists) but hopes that the sculpture asks the question “What is the future for the Nuba people?” and reminds us that in this ever-shrinking world we are never far away from what is happening in places such as the Nuba Mountains.

THANK YOU. It's been bugging me since that post, and only remembering enough to search for "painting series white cat female artist" got a bajillion hits of fluffy kittens and no creepy Polish cat.

Everyone's guessing what it could be and how it got in there but wait a second. Why does animal and plant cannot get activly into a mode of symbiose. What if this is 1 live form.The tree is delivering food and if the tree dies the worm can get out and live as a snake. The tree can also be counted as a protection for the worm

No people just read it as that and I think it becomes canon to them after awhile. Are you suggesting that thing in the tree was some sort of poopsock?

It's a snake. And I'd bet that it was a felled log that they just started cutting up and the snake had just crawled into the existing hole. Not like a snake that grew up in the middle of a tree or something.
