The image shows the Young Pioneers, a youth group in Soviet Russia, wearing their gas masks during a civil defense drill near Leningrad in 1937.

What’s creepier than a photograph of one person with glowing eyes? Dozens upon dozens of religious figures with glowing eyes, that’s what!

We all have that kooky uncle who pulls quarters from behind our ears, tells us embarrassing stories about our parents, and moonlights as a murderous clown, don’t we?
Me neither, but I’m glad someone out there does – because we are left with this twisted 1960s family photograph to give us the chills.
Well, that clown surely looks creepy as hell. Imagine having him in your house.

The Odessa Catacombs of Ukraine is a winding, snaking circuit of caves and passageways that make up the largest catacombs in the world.
Since they’re incredibly difficult and dangerous to navigate, the Ukrainian government sealed off all entrances to the tunnels. But that hasn’t stopped thrill-seekers and urban explorers from trying their luck in the winding tunnels.
Enter this eerie photograph, which allegedly shows three youthful adventurers stumbling upon the remains of a young girl who got lost in the catacombs two years prior and likely eventually starved to death.
Whether the picture is genuine may be a viable question, but it’s still eerie to think about chancing upon the remains of an unfortunate soul.

This extremely telling bit of graffiti was found by a photographer, who thankfully didn’t meet the individual who wrote it.
Of course, we’re not really thinking somebody confessed on a cement wall about dismembering another person.
But isn’t it best to assume this is one of the creepiest things you’ll ever come across and that the person who wrote it is still lurking in the shadows?

They were called the hive. They became known as lovely but dangerous partiers, seducing men and women with substance abuse, and then making them donate their blood to them.
Some of the victims even joined the Hive and she became their leader too. In 1882 and 1884, she was apparently voted the scariest woman in England, even though she lived in Scotland – that’s how scary she is.

When this photo of the St. Augustine Lighthouse, one of the oldest structures in America, was taken, the photographer noted nothing out of the ordinary.
However, on looking back over the photo, he was astonished to find the image of a woman, standing at the railing, looking into the distance. The problem was that no one was there when the photo was taken.
Interestingly, many people have reported strange phenomena at the lighthouse – voices heard when no one else is around, mysterious shadows, and several apparitions including that of a woman on the lighthouse stairs.
Two young girls have also been reported walking near the top of the tower. The mysterious figure in the photograph is said to be the ghost of a 10-year-old girl who suffered a tragic fate on that lighthouse.
