scary

Sometimes, you're out walking the beach under lonesome moonlight, when suddenly you see a four foot shark stuck in the sand. From there, most people would probably steer very clear of such a scene, but thus was not the case for this fearless warrior. No, she cooly grabbed that shark and ended up yeeting/tossing him back into the ocean from whence he came. That should be a whole lot of good karma points for her. 

The world is full of unforeseen hazards, and we can thank creepy sign makers for clueing the rest of us in on all the junk we could step into. Spooky signs say a lot with their creepiness and sometimes the sign itself is scarier than the danger. That said most of us would prefer not to fall into a radioactive mine shaft so we can thank these spooky signs even if they're too dang scary.

Halloween is just around the corner, and although 2020 has been one disappointment after another, nothing can take Halloween away from us. To get you in a spooky festive mood, we made some easy to follow tutorials for how to carve some seriously awesome (and creepy) pumpkins. Get out the pumpkin carving tools, because it's that time of year again. If you're after something easier, check out the tutorial for making a simple Jack-o'-lantern.

Man oh man, this AskReddit thread is just in time for spooky season. It's all about the creepiest experiences that midnight shift workers have had while on the job. Let's just say that it's threads like these that lead us to believe that there's a whole lot more scary stuff going on in the world than we'll ever fully grasp.

Twitter user _danilo uses an example from Star Trek to explain some of the dangers of having an industry that lacks face-to-face interaction with its own workers. It's scary enough to imagine your job being done by a cold, calculating robot, but what if your boss's job was done by a cold, calculating robot? For something with more Star Trek fun and less technocratic dread, here's an awesome Tumblr post on how hard humans go in Star Trek.

If you needed some more stress in your life, here are some seemingly mundane things that can be more dangerous than you'd expect. It turns out a lot of stuff that you see and do every day is heavy, poisonous, and otherwise surprisingly deadly. For some more bummers, here are not-so-fun facts to feel bad about.

There are many hazards in this world, and appropriately there are many ominous signs that speak the language of fear. You never know it there could be some hidden mine shaft or risk of monkey attack. Whether they're warning of some totally extreme danger or their scary in their own right, it's usually best to pay attention to spooky signs.

Whether it's the vagueness, the real looming threat, or even the placement of the sign, these warnings do their job extra hard. Something about them really makes you want to not do what you were thinking of doing, stay in the car, and turn back. Here are some more warning signs that mean business.

Whether you're a wear parent yourself, or someone looking for more reasons to avoid procreation, these stories will make you cringe and maybe chuckle.

Jim Smallman asked people on Twitter to share their weird fears. The responses were troubling.

The renowned classic graphic designer Saul Bass, famous for his many movie posters and title scenes, also drew the poster for the Stanley Kubrick creepfest The Shining.

The AV Club posted some of the Bass' lost posters which Kubrick rejected out right. The classically fussy English director also penciled his criticisms in the haunting art.

The Satan story is just pure genius all around.
