Devil’s fingers - this must be the creepiest mushroom ever. It looks like a zombie hand reaching out to grab someone. It’s made to look even more realistic by the the presence of the what appears to be tattered sleeve at its ‘wrist’. 

Vacation Cemetery Pamphlets

This photo allegedly shows an entity standing on the body of a dying patient in a hospital. The photo was taken from a nurse station, where there were security cameras in the rooms. The photo began circulating the web around 2013, and many forums and websites labeled the figure as demonic, when the op labeled it as just a dark figure. Apparently hours after the photo was taken the patient died, some have speculated that the figure is a demon, a warning of the particular patient’s death or even the patient themself.

Notre Dame, Paris, Édouard Baldus, 1852-1853, Cleveland Museum of Art: Photography

This extraordinary photograph clearly demonstrates Baldus’s genius both as an architectural photographer and as a printer. Centrally placed and filling the entire composition, this great architectural monument is clearly depicted, seemingly removed from time, as there are no interfering elements such as figures or clouds to distract from the building’s majesty. This large, ambitious view captures, almost without rival, the physical and symbolic essence of Notre-Dame. Instead of the traditional frontal view, Baldus photographed the building at an oblique angle in order to articulate the volume of the structure, and he was most conscious of the negative space created by the cathedral’s contour against the unmodulated sky. His salt prints of architectural views, with their breathtaking warm gray tones, are among the most striking achievements of 19th-century photography. Size: Image: 29.5 x 44.7 cm (11 5/8 x 17 5/8 in.); Matted: 50.8 x 61 cm (20 x 24 in.) Medium: salted paper print from wet collodion negative

The Bleeding Tooth Fungus (Hydnellum peckii)

A strange fungus called devil’s tooth (Hydnellum peckii) excretes a red “juice” that’s sure to catch your eye—but don’t worry, it’s not blood! When the devil’s tooth is moist, it oozes droplets of the liquid. But this only happens when the fungus is young—as it grows, it turns brownish and stops secreting the jarring red juice. Believe it or not, this “bleeding” mushroom is not toxic! It is, however, mycorrhizal. This means it has a symbiotic relationship with the roots of a plant (in this case, coniferous trees), helping to provide nutrients while deriving carbohydrates produced from photosynthesis.
