Sometimes, as we go about our typical day, we stumble across something that feels a little out of the ordinary. In some circumstances, it's simply due to an optical illusion or a weird effect in nature that we weren't expecting. When this happens, it can be a fun quirk to appreciate. Other times, you won't be feeling appreciative of it at all.

Once in a while, something that should otherwise be pretty normal somehow turns out absolutely terrifying. Some people have managed to preserve moments like these, giving rise to a phenomenon known as "oddly terrifying" images, and they certainly live up to their name. These images give off a bad aura for no particular reason. When you look a little closer, you might realize that these things aren't that unusual, but they still feel pretty off-putting no matter the explanation. The following images will prove that not everything is as it seems.
