Haha, sorry... I was in a hurry and took it literally... Does look like ET.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
This thread reminds me that I have a bookmark to one of the creepiest things on the web.
Quicktime required. It's mad old.

I've always considered it more cool than creepy, but I may be in the minority.
Another Photo (NSFW)
ET?
Matthew Barney's stuff is brilliant if you're into performance art. Absolutely mind-fuck but gorgeous.
I need context for a lot of these because they're so good.

Thanks for the source. I wish we had such haunted houses at theme parks over here.

Is Xtro actually worth a watch?

From what I've heard, no, but I haven't seen it myself.
Not a picture, but everytime I come here, many of the photos make me think about Mamà, a great horror short by Andres Muschietti:

It is, and he works with terrific makeup artists. I bought the huge Cremaster Cycle book a few years ago: the range of his work is incredible.

Thanks for linking that. I've seen it before, but didn't remember its name, so now we know the source of this gif.
(Don't click the link above, if you want to keep it as a surprise before watching the video.)
EDIT: I also recommend Jaume Balagueró's (The Nameless, Darkness, Fragile [REC]) short movies, Dias Sin Luz (Days Without Light) and Alicia. Both of them can be found on YouTube, but I'm not going to link them here due to their graphic content. The latter is like a demented art film, and seems to have some Witkin influences.

Holy crap, why did I watch this before bed? My heart is pounding. Beautifully filmed though.Not a picture, but everytime I come here, many of the photos make me think about Mamà, a great horror short by Andres Muschietti:

The back of my head wouldn't be able to whisper to me at night cause it'd be face down on a pillow.
Melchiah

As the other face couldn't speak, the story clearly implies he heard the voice inside his head.

Oh it did? I just thought it said he whispered to him. In that case I'd just bash my head against the wall. C'mon, I'm just joking.

Didn't know that, eventhough I used to listen to his works quite a lot in the past.

Maaaaaaaaaan. :/
I really liked Xtro actually. I think it is worth it.

Outstanding. Zdzislaw's painting's are so good, because they mix realism with surrealism. They look like world's you could step into, a hazy, grainy photograph, perhaps - yet they hold that bizarre aesthetic and aura to them that they seem like something you remember from a dream, as if they were generated in the dark depths of your mind.

Still not real. Besides just because it was the first photo taken doesn't mean it was ubiquitous or anything of that nature.
Taken from here: http://thehumanmarvels.com/125/from-the-archives-edward-mordake-poor-edward/deformity
In fact there are no dates of any kind about Edward Mordrake, other than "19th century" which could mean anything.
Also everyone here should check out The Human Marvels website. Really good details about all the freaks, sideshows, and other (in)famous individuals.

Didn't say it was real, only that there were photos back then. Besides, when was this thread supposed to be about reality anyway?

Eshh. I didn't know they were that rare. I was staring at one in a record store 15 years ago debating if I should buy it.

I just remembered I used to use one of Barney's creatures as an avatar here on gaf! The sheep man. This one iirc:
Yeah... They're one of my favorites!

yah except his second head was just a tumor and a sideshow promoter put a wax face on it.
a Goya favorite:
Saturn
Another Saturn picture. Greek mythology has some very dark themes within it. Of course growing up, any mention of Cronus eating his children was portrayed as swallowing in a single gulp, very Jonah-esque. It's harsh contrast in Goya and Rubens' depictions, having the flesh ripped off your bones by your own father.

Ooooh, this reminds me of Session 9 in a good way.
I love abandoned medical facilities/prisons/factories/etc.

No way, that's just creepypasta right. Fucking hell.
