Not all artists prefer to depict portraits and landscapes. Some people want to convey in their images a certain mystery, mysticism, a sense of fear. For example, the most terrible picture in the world, which brings endless horror to all Internet users, was photographed from the famous canvas called "Hands resist him." This truly terrible canvas created such a stir around itself that many were afraid to even look at it through the monitor screen, thinking that it was cursed. Rumor has it that the artist poured all his dark sides souls and the most terrible nightmares. However, more about everything in our interesting article.
"Hands resist him." Fiction or a real curse?
This creepy painting was painted in 1972 by a famous artist. It depicts a girl resembling a doll and a boy, about 5 years old. The children stand against the backdrop of a glass door on which one can see great amount small palms.
The scariest painting in the world was copied from a childhood photograph of the artist. Stoneham portrayed himself at the age of 5 and the little girl next door.
What did the artist want to say?
According to Stoneham, the door means nothing more than a wall between the world of the living and parallel world dreams. The boy on the canvas is depicted angry and dissatisfied. And this is not surprising, because he really wants to open the door and see what is outside the real world. But the children's hands resist this, blocking the boy's path. The doll standing nearby is insensitive and empty. She does not see or hear anything, but is the only one in this case can help the boy to enter the world of dreams.
What kind creepy stories related to the painting?
The first owner of "Hands Resist Him" was the famous American actor John Marley. Some time later, the man died. No one still knows whether the unfortunate picture is really to blame for his death. The same thing happened with other owners of the mystical canvas. The young family who once owned this eerie picture told about the terrible things that happened in their house. They found the canvas in a landfill along with another pile. Overjoyed, the head of the family took it into the house and placed it in the most prominent place. At night, their little daughter broke into her parents' bedroom, screaming that some children were quarreling in her room. The next day, the girl again reported that the image in the picture had changed somewhat - the children were outside the glass door. After that, the father decided to get rid of the "cursed" creation.
In 2000, the image of the canvas appeared on an online auction. Administrators warned Internet users that this is the most terrible picture in the world, because it was photographed from an analogue of the damned canvas “Hands resist him”, which has already brought grief to many people. However, many stared at the image, showing their immense curiosity. And after some time, letters began to arrive at the administrator's postal address, indicating that after viewing the "ill-fated" image, many began to feel dizzy.
Despite the terrible letters, the most terrible picture was still sold. It was taken over by a daring art gallery owner named Kim Smith.

Rumor has it that because of this, the baby hated his cruel father so much that he sincerely wished him to burn.

It is no wonder that the "Crying Boy" is the most terrible picture in the world, at the sight of which many hearts shudder.
Later, an unexpected series of fires took place throughout England, in which people died.

1. Evelyn McHale
The Empire State Building was widely known as a favorite place for people to commit suicide. The incident that brought him this notoriety happened to 23-year-old Evelyn McHale, who decided to end her life in such a spectacular way.
This picture was taken just minutes after she landed in a limousine parked outside the building and has been published numerous times as one of the most beautiful and graceful suicides in history. Of course, we do not agree that suicide can be considered beautiful, but we appreciate the fact that the body did not break into pieces in a terrible way.
The photo was taken by student Robert Wiles and received a full page in the May issue of Life magazine. There is a lot of discussion as to what makes the picture so creepy. We have to say that Evelina doesn't look dead, she looks more like a nap.
2. The girl found in the catacombs in Odessa
Catacombs are places with great spooky potential. Far from normal outside world, they can tell many secrets and create a variety of fairy tales and myths. This is exactly what happened in the Odessa catacombs, where a girl was found dead, in a terrible state of decomposition of her upper body.
As the story goes, a girl named Masha got lost while walking there with her friends on New Year's Eve 2005. And although this legend has been circulating on the Internet for a long time, many locals are ready to put their word on the line that the story is true.
The body was found, presumably four months after this incident, although no one can explain what happened to the body that made it look so terrible.
3. Image of 14-year-old Regina Kay Walters, made by serial killer Robert Ben Rhodes
This shot might be one of the creepiest real photos you've ever seen. Although at first glance, one might think that this is just a model photo shoot, made less professional photographer, it's actually done serial killer and a rapist.
The girl who probably wants to tell him to stop was Regina Kay Walters, 14, who disappeared with her friend from the house. Regina - it was last kill committed by Robert Ben Rhodes before he was caught by the authorities and sentenced to life in prison.
The photo is so dramatic that we don't even want to think about what happened after it was taken. The elegant dress and appearance of the young woman is in deep conflict with the barn in which she was detained, tortured, and eventually killed.
4 Hospital Demon
This photo is really shocking and you don't need to read its title to understand that we are talking about a creature not from our world. The picture became an instant internet sensation when it was published in December 2013. As the story goes, the picture was taken with mobile phone and depicts what was seen on the nurse's observation monitor.
From this point of view, we can have additional confidence in photography. Nonetheless, public opinion quickly divided into two sides: those who are ready to believe in such a phenomenon that challenges our current understanding of being, and those who are convinced that we have on our hands either a hoax or a coincidence in how some elements were arranged in a room.
Just to be said in support of the demon theory - there are a bunch of old paintings of such a monster and some psychologists have linked it to the medical condition of sleep paralysis.
5. Spirit of Amityville
The spirit of Amityville is one of the most known cases capturing spirits ever recorded on tape. A famous photo appears to be of a boy looking towards the camera. The only problem is that there shouldn't be any boy in the house at the time the picture was taken, as the youngest member of the DeFeo family was killed in the house before the picture was taken.
As always with fuzzy photographs and scraps of evidence, the case has created parties that are at constant war with hypothesis and theory as to what really happened. However, we have to admit that the photo is really creepy and we can feel the hairs on our arms stand on end. This is probably the best ghost, the evidence of which is presented in the photo. And it's up to you to decide if it's convincing enough for you.
6. Ghost at The Waverly Hills Sanitarium, Kentucky
Many abandoned hospitals across the US have gained a reputation for being haunted over the years. But few have stood the test of time as well as the Waverly Hills Sanitarium in Kentucky. One of the most intriguing stories is that of room 502, where the supposed death took place.
A young nurse discovered that she was pregnant by one of the employees and decided to take her own life. Although sources disagreed, she hanged herself or jumped from top floor, the idea is that her spirit seems to have remained tied to the place. The photographs show a woman whose silhouette is clearly visible and the resemblance is really visible.
Private inquiries were made, but no further evidence was presented.
7. Room inside Linda Vista Municipal Hospital
The Linda Vista Municipal Hospital isn't creepy in and of itself, but we say you've probably seen a lot of the amazing scenes that were filmed there. The hospital was opened in 1904 and was located in Boyle Heights near Los Angeles, it was used for its intended purpose for several good years, during which it served mainly railway employees.
In 1991, after several years of financial struggle, the hospital closed its doors and became a symbol of decline. The combination of graffiti artists, drug addicts and homeless people made the hospital perfect for horror filming.
The proximity to Hollywood made it very convenient, and over 35 films and a large number of TV shows have used it as a set. Numerous music videos have been filmed here. It all ended in 2011 when the building was renovated and converted into Linda Vista Senior Apartments.
8. Mongolian Woman Condemned to Starvation, 1913
What could be more creepy than seeing someone starved to death? This photograph supposedly depicts the traditional Mongolian way of executing sentences. The woman is locked inside a wooden box, with no way out.
There is food and water around the cage, but it is obvious that she cannot get them through the small hole made for breathing. To die under these conditions must be something excruciatingly painful, and not only on physical level but also mentally.
While there are theories that this only serves as a way to transport prisoners, or keep them isolated until their sentence is carried out, we tend to believe the original story. The method actually has a name - imprisonment, and was popular in other cultures of the past as well.
9. Mass Suicide in Jonestown - Life and Death of the People of the Temple
What could be more horrifying than a mass suicide involving over 900 people? Before the events of September 11, 2001, this was one of the biggest tragedies involving American civilians. The cause of death was cyanide poisoning, which evokes conspiracy theories about the event.
Was it really suicide or mass murder? "Jonestown" is the official name of the community, for an attempt to establish an agrarian socialist society in Guyana. In accordance with his full name, The Agricultural Temple of the Peoples was a project of the American religious organization directed by Jim Jones.
It is still not clear how big number people were persuaded to participate in such a sinister plot, although we all know that religion and extreme forms of mysticism have caused victims in the past. This event shocked the world on November 18, 1978, and raised important questions about the role of religion in our lives. This photo is clearly one of the most disturbing signals ever.
10. Shadows of Hiroshima
We all know what happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, but few of us are aware of some of the most eerie signs still present at the crash site. Also referred to as shadows of death, they were produced by radiation particles that were left behind by beams that passed people by, creating an area on the pavement that received more radiation.
Contrary to popular belief, people are never vaporized by the force of an explosion, although they have been exposed to fire and significant doses of radiation. The effect can be compared to traditional photography. Only a limited part of the frame was exposed to light, thus creating details and contours.
The signs of the bombing that happened nearly 70 years ago are a reminder that we really must make an effort to stop such atrocities from happening again.
11. Japanese city of gas masks Miyakejima
Believe it or not, this photo is more recent than it looks. No, there was no carnival in the city, but only the need for protection from the air full of toxic emissions from the recent volcanic eruption. Located at the foot of the volcano of the same name, the city of Miyakejima has always been subject to the deadly effects of the eruptions that have occurred here throughout history.
Although the authorities have gone to great lengths to convince local residents that it is better to change their place of residence, many of them did not believe the impending danger and decided to stay. Gas masks became a daily necessity and people quickly got used to them. The city has gained such notoriety that people from all over the world come here to experience this post-apocalyptic landscape in their own skin (or lungs, if you prefer). Of course, masks are mandatory for those approaching the area.
12. Michael and Sean McKilken
This shot may look like a photo from a rock concert, but the truth is actually more eerie. Michael McQuilken (18) and Sean McQuilken (12) were camping in national park Moro Rock Sequoia in California when they decided it was a good moment to take a picture.
Remember that many decades have passed and selfies had not yet been invented, so there was a third tourist who took the picture. The raised hair is not the result of their excitement when climbing a mountain. As you can see in the background, the weather was terrible and their hair really stood on end in this way due to static electricity.
All three were struck by lightning on August 20, 1975, but the photographer managed to survive and tell the story. The image became famous because it was used in many public awareness campaigns about the dangers of lightning while outdoors.
13. Mouth of the Yangtze River Love Bridge
The mouth of the Yangtze River looks very poetic while covered in fog. But this shot was taken by an unknown person, not because of its landscape value. The whole point of the most eerie photo is in the lower right corner, which shows that the shutter was released at the very moment when someone was in the air, flying towards death.
As creepy as it may seem, this suicide caught on film was actually the second one to die on the same day. The young woman eventually repeated the act, and it was later revealed that the two were a couple. 40 meters of fall were most likely from fatal for both, as their bodies were never found.
Suicide is a growing trend among China's youth. As the economy moves forward, there is a powerful pressure to perform better, both at school and at work, and money was the most likely cause of this shocking suicide.

It is often said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The person you see may look attractive or ugly depending on your beauty criteria.
But there is famous people who have problems with appearance are striking. This can be caused by unsuccessful plastic surgeries or by the whim of Mother Nature, who is sometimes very cruel to her children.
This actress was one of those who adorned the movie screen in the eighties and early nineties of the 20th century. She played Valyn Ewing in the famous American soap opera Dallas, and then, it seems, brought the glamorous life of her character to reality. The result was frighteningly unhealthy. Now Joan has an unnatural complexion, swollen lips, a sagging nose - and all this is exacerbated by heavy and tasteless makeup.
9. Tori Spelling
The daughter of producer Aaron Spelling and the star of the youth series Beverly Hills 90210 made a career in Hollywood thanks to her own talents, as well as the support of her father. However, several plastic surgeries were not in vain for Tori's appearance (and especially her breasts). Now she looks like a character from the House of Wax.
8. Elaine Davidson
And this lady covered her body with 7000 pieces of piercing (total weight of 3 kg), becoming the most pierced woman in the world. She is one of the landmarks of Edinburgh, owns an aromatic shop and regularly performs on the Royal Mile. In 2011, she married Douglas Watson, who, surprisingly, does not get pierced.
An interesting fact is that despite her passion, Elaine has a black belt in judo, does not drink alcohol and does not use drugs.
7. Melanie Gaidos
This American model has a rare genetic disorder called ectodermal dysplasia. It prevents the development of teeth, nails, cartilage, hair follicles and bones. Because of this, the girl is missing hairline on the body and almost no teeth (with the exception of three milk teeth). As a child, she had to endure bullying by her peers, and this led to the fact that at the age of 16, Melanie fell into a deep depression.
However, she was able to do what many adults fail to look at life positively and fulfill her dream. In New York, the girl found photographers interested in collaborating with non-standard models. Since then, Gaidos has been a sought-after fashion model and actress and has shown that there are many types of beauty beyond the stereotypical ones.
6 Whoopi Goldberg
The second African American woman in the world to win an Oscar for acting skills, does not differ in external beauty. Users joke that Whoopi's hair looks like a "tarantula has landed" on her head. But her talent is so bright that films with Goldberg are remembered for a long time.
As one fan of the actress writes: “She may be ugly, but she is very sweet. In addition, she is a very good actress. People sometimes don't understand that no one can choose their appearance beforehand, otherwise the world would be boring.".
5. Julia Gnuse
Julia was born in 1959 and lived ordinary life until she was thirty-five years old. One day, she discovered painful points on the skin, which began to turn into scars that disfigured the body. Doctors found out that Yulia developed porphyria. This is an incredibly rare skin condition that can be inherited from parents or simply develop spontaneously. One of the most uncomfortable symptoms of her condition is the incredible sensitivity of her skin. Julia could not even go outside, otherwise huge blisters bursting in the light appeared on her body.
Fortunately, one of Gnuse's friends - a plastic surgeon - suggested tattooing as a way to "cover up" ugly scars. However, the tattoos do not protect the poor thing from the harmful rays of the sun, and the scars are very painful, and some of them are as serious as third-degree burns.
Currently, more than 95% of Yulia's body is covered in tattoos - including her face - and she is known as the most tattooed woman in the world or the "Painted Lady". It took $80,000 to create the tattoo.
4. Maria Cristerna
The Mexican woman, also known as the “vampire woman,” is by far one of the scariest girls on Earth. Her photo inspires not only fear, but also an involuntary respect for a person who spared neither money nor own body in pursuit of an ideal (albeit incomprehensible to others).
It is known that Maria began her “transformation” into a vampire tattooed from head to toe with extended fangs after bad marriage. For years she was a victim domestic violence. Apparently, steel implants a la horns symbolize "strength", and tattoos show her "freedom".
3. Donatella Versace
Opens the top 3 scariest women photo of the sister of the late fashion designer Gianni Versace.
Her fashion brand beloved and popular with the Hollywood elite, but Donatella's appearance does not match the beauty of the things she creates. She disfigured her face with too many plastic surgeries, which, however, does not prevent the art director of the Versace empire from remaining one of the style icons.
2. Jocelyn Wildenstein
Once upon a time, Jocelyn was a pretty, but completely ordinary woman. Now the face of one of the most terrible women on the planet in the photo resembles a lioness who unsuccessfully made plastic surgery. By the way, one of Jocelyn's nicknames is "Catwoman" and the other is "Bride of Wildenstein", by analogy with the Bride of Frankenstein. Her name often flashes in the tabloid press because of the numerous cosmetic surgeries for which the billionaire spent about 3,933,800 dollars.
She allegedly decided on the first operation in order to regain the attention of her husband, a passionate hunter Alec Wildenstein, who simply adored lions. However, she was unlucky with surgeons, and subsequent manipulations with her appearance further and further removed Jocelyn from the concept of "norm".
- She has had a facelift and brow lift as well as a mid-face lift, but failed due to collagen injections in the past.
- I implanted implants in the chin, cheekbones and cheeks (then removed from the chin).
- She lifted the corners of her eyelids.
- I did blepharoplasty of the lower and upper eyelids.
- I have had injections in my lips many times to enlarge them.
All these efforts only led to the fact that a woman with such an unusual face was often invited to various talk shows. A dubious achievement for such an impressive amount.
A 28-year-old resident of Austin, Texas, is perhaps the scariest woman in the world. A photo of Lizzy at first can even scare, however, having got acquainted with the history of her life, one can only be surprised at the courage and stamina of this lady.
The writer, blogger, and motivational speaker has been diagnosed with the extremely rare Wiedemann-Rauthenstrauch Syndrome, a genetic disorder that affects her face, muscle tone, brain, heart, eyes, and bones, and prevents her body from "storing" fat, causing her Lizzy weighs only 29 kg. There are only three people in the world with this syndrome.
The appearance of the girl was constantly the subject of ridicule and insults. In 2006, she discovered a mocking YouTube video of herself calling her "the scariest girl in the world."
“I was crushed. You can imagine how I felt. I was embarrassed, upset, hurt and angry – but then I read the comments.”- said Velasquez in an interview. Some people who watched the video wrote that Lizzie should do the world a favor and put a gun to her head, others asked why her parents did not have an abortion. One person even suggested that people go blind looking at such an ugly woman.
But instead of letting thousands of negative commenters break her down, she turned her haters into motivators. She began posting responses to offensive remarks online, describing her feelings from what she had read and learning the intricacies of oratory.
“We are all on Earth for a reason. I realized that we all live in this world for a reason. Fortunately, I was able to take the path of positivity and turn my terrible situation into something much more pleasant.” Velasquez says.
She wrote an autobiographical book, The History of the ugly woman in the world, which has become the happiest”, has become a motivational speaker and regularly participates in conferences where she teaches how to deal with social stereotypes.
In addition, the life of this amazing American woman served as the basis for the documentary Braveheart: The Lizzy Velasquez Story. In it, the girl talks about her illness and urges people suffering from various diseases not to give up.
It doesn't matter what the most scary women the world is physically unattractive. The truth is that appearance doesn't matter when it comes to their talents. Many participants in the rating have become famous thanks to their own efforts, and by their example they show all the girls on Earth that appearance is not the main thing in life.
