We know this world is a crazy spinning ball of wtf so let’s celebrate it by taking a look at some rather weird, creepy and also unexplained images.
From the possibility of a polar bear attack when you are isolated in the arctic circle or being swallowed up by sinkholes with 300ft drop. How about getting home from a long journey only to find that that loud bang you heard that the car was not actually a stone from the road but actually a bullet hitting the side of the car? These are the things that nightmares are made of.
If you had no difficulty getting to sleep before this article then we apologize in advance because what you may see here today may prey on your mind and stoke the fires with nightmare fuel.
When you close your eyes tonight try not to think about them!
Knock Knock!
