Creepy encounters are something many people are relatively familiar with. Most of the time, they can't back their claims after seeing a ghost or something supernatural, so they are rarely taken seriously.

Most people have never seen a ghost in their entire lives, which makes it hard to believe that they might actually be amongst us at all times. Most people fail to provide concrete proof to back their claims, so they mostly get accused of lying.

However, when you encounter something yourself and happen to have some sort of evidence, people start to take you a little bit more seriously. Many people have accidentally taken pictures of things they can't explain, and there's nothing scarier than that.

Knowing that these "entities" or "ghosts" might be around you when you least expect it is undoubtedly a spine-chilling feeling. Especially if you have some sort of proof that no one can really explain.

Social media and internet users constantly share the creepy pictures they accidentally took, and some of them are certainly bloodcurdling. The r/Ghosts subreddit is dedicated to sharing content about ghosts and the paranormal.

Scroll down to check out some of the creepiest things people posted in that subreddit.

1. "Picture my friend sent me a few years back after moving into her new apartment in Charleston, SC (she was taking a pic of her dog)"

Hey guys! So the story of this is that my friend had just moved into her new place in downtown Charleston South Carolina. Her dog hopped up on the chair, she thought it was cute, and sent me a pic of it. Months later her girlfriend noticed something in the back of the hallway. She was home alone, doors/windows closed and locked.

2. "Taken from motion sensing baby monitor, while wife and I were outside."

3. "One night I felt like being watched from this corner while I was in the bed at my mom’s rented home deep in the woods..."

"1 week later her boyfriend at the same bedroom woke up to noises and saw white glowing eyes from the same corner. He took out a smartphone camera to snap a photo of this."

4. "This picture was taken in Moncalieri’s Castle, which is known as one of the most haunted places in Italy (you can easily search the web for it)..."

"The picture was taken by a Carabinieri officer, I sincerely do not know what to think."

5. "Ghost sighting at the Pirate House in Savannah, GA. More information in comments."

6. "I got a notification of motion on my home security camera last night at 1:32 AM and this is what I saw."

"I was in bed still awake when my camera caught this... I didn't hear any sounds from my hallway and I live alone. I'm convinced my house is haunted. I just moved in last week. What can I do?"

IrishROFLcat replied:

I don’t normally comment, but since you’re in a new place and technology is finicky, I would suggest checking your new place for void places, a place in the wall where you have no explanation for the space missing, make sure there are no large vents or anything a person can move through, check your locks and make sure to contact your landlord and see if any incidents of a stranger breaking in have happened before, if you own, I would definitely rig up a security system and more cameras.

Work on ruling out more logical explanations before you go to supernatural ones.

7. "I don’t know what to do with this picture. Woman in the stair well."

8. "Ex gf sent this photo to her family chat to announce she reached the hotel safe and chilling. Brother replies, who is that in the mirror?"

"Full story: 6+ years ago, ex gf went to Malacca, Malaysia for a holiday with her husband and 2 kids. After checking in to the hotel room, youngest kid(3yo) kept crying and subsequently fell into a fever.

Family group chat asked if they reached safely, she took a snapshot of the tv while in bed to send to family and say yeah, now chilling and watching tv. Brother points out the weird thing in the mirror. They freak out and demand to change rooms. Fortunately, youngest kid recovers from fever after."

9. "My son was napping yesterday and I looked at the monitor and saw this."

10. "Someone was outside our window last night. This is about 16ft off the ground"

11. "Recently Deceased Father Appears in Photo. Description of Events in comments"

This photo was taken by my friend who decided to take the photo because her dog kept looking at this part of the room. Her Father recently passed away. She recognizes her father because of this specific shirt. Photo was taken at night with all windows having curtains closed

12. "In the process of buying a house. my mom took photos throughout the whole house, and all the photos came out bad in one specific room. what do y’all think?"

"Might be interesting for some of you, it’s been listed 7 times since 1987. the last 4 times the families only lived there for periods of about 1 year, the family we are buying from has been there for 3.

I did some searching to see if anyone died in the house. Of all the people related to the house, only one has died but we can’t find any record of how or where. If anyone knows how to find this info that would be appreciated!

So, we got into contact with one of the previous owners and she absolutely raved about the house saying she loved it and wished she never left but she actually got foreclosed on during the recession. The owner after that bought it to flip, then there were two more owners afterwards (the second ones being the ones we are buying from). So really, the turnover rates make sense."

13. "What did I take a picture of?"

14. "Mrs.Freda checking on her husband."

15. "My one and only photo of Dead Fred."

16. "Can anyone help me verify that the man in this picture is not edited?"

"My mom sent me this photo a couple of years ago. It was taken by someone she knows. This picture was taken at Jeffrey’s Cliffs in Hawesville, KY. They claim that nobody else was there when the picture was taken. I assume it was taken on a phone. This place was only recently opened to the public in 2018, this was taken around that time."

17. "My mother in-law sent me a security cam picture of what appears to be her mom, Nancy, who died in December 2013."

"Picture was taken this past Saturday when infrared security camera detected motion at her brothers back patio."

18. "This photo has haunted my camera role for about a year now and I finally have a place to share it."

"Took this photo on accident when Snapchating someone. In the window in the bottom left is what I believe to be some sort of ghost or spirit. P.S I don’t own any pets"

19. "Last week I took this snap of the side of my living room as a streak on Snapchat, to my closest friend."

"Shitted myself at what’s in the window to my conservatory. Want to move."

20. "Look what my Nest Cam picked up a few nights ago"

21. "Was standing on the edge of the tub painting high up and thought a hair was touching my leg, looked down to see this."

"No kids live here. My son passed away in July. Anybody have a logical explanation? Or have I been visited"

Spotting something like that in a random picture you took could certainly keep you awake for days. Especially if the photo was taken inside your home; no one wants to live in a haunted house.
