Ancient cave paintings depicted tales of survival and hunts, while gothic cathedrals were adorned with grotesque gargoyles. In different ways, across time and cultures, humans have always found ways to turn the darker side of life into images, art and tales.
Today, it’s being done with the help of the internet — through surreal images, true crime stories, horror illustrations, paintings, gory digital art, and even artificial intelligence.
For example, an artist transformed something as playful as a Minion into a hyper-realistic and distorted figure and posted it online. Another shared a picture of a super creepy note someone stuck to their car’s windshield. Completely different intentions, yet equally disturbing.
These images, shared by people from all over the world on the subreddit r/creepy, are scary, eerie, strange, weird and sometimes disgusting. Fair warning: you might want to keep the lights on if you’re planning to scroll through this list in the dark.

#2 The Famine Memorial, Dublin, Ireland
The Famine Memorial, officially titled Famine, is a memorial in Dublin, Ireland. The memorial, which stands on Customs House Quay, is in remembrance of the Great Famine (1845-1849), which saw the population of the country halved through death and emigration.
One of the most haunting and harrowing pieces of art I’ve ever seen. Walking past this moment at night is creepy as hell.

#6 Really Creepy Note Left On My Door This Morning??
Me and my sisters recently moved into this new apartment complex and we haven’t really spoken to anyone. I have no clue who this could because we all generally stick to ourselves and don’t talk to many other people outside of family. I’m going up to the office later and asking them if they are allowed to check cameras. Hoping this is a prank but there is a real number attached.
