Things that creep you out and fascinate you simultaneously

    I've realised lately that I kind of like that feeling of being a bit creeped out. Not full-on scared, just that shuddery feeling. Does this happen to anyone else or am I truly a weirdo? I sometimes look at photos of things that creep me out as a means of entertainment. Okay I am a weirdo.

    So, the main things that creep me out but I can't stop looking at the are:
    1) giant rabbits
    2) pictures of bats faces, close up
    3) images that come up when you google 'trypophobia'

    Anyone out there??

    Ooh speaking of the sea - tsunamis. I once almost failed an exam because I stayed up all night the night before not studying like I had planned to, but watching video footage of tsunamis!

    Also, ingrown hairs being taken out!

    Vladimir Putin.


    The husband was watching the grand prix just now, and that creep had to hang his face into every shot he could. Creepy, but you just somehow can't look away.

    Death. I'm terrified when i think of the finality and inevitably of it.however , a small bit of me is actually , I know this is gonna come across wrong but , excited by it.it's the ultimate unknown. I think I'm 99.99999% certain it's just the end but it's the tiny,slight chance that my consciousness might show up somehow again in some different form that fascinates and excites me.

    I think he's actually quite the dude. At least he's not one of those 'as long as I have my snout in the trough its ok' guys.

    Heights creep me out. But only from static structures like bridges, canyons etc. No bother in a small plane, but have me looking down a cliff or a skyscraper and it makes me shiver and at the same time I want to get closer to the abyss. Very weird and quite scary in itself.

    Track machines big and small how they can go around in circles all day long, how you can dig with the track motors and blade at the the same ends, fascinating.

    Get out of that ship before it lists to 45 degrees, after that it is the point of no return.

    I get a shiver through my body when I watch those youtube compilations of people being eejits hurting themselves (especially some form of faceplant).

    Yet I still watch them :confused:
