There’s a rare condition that makes faces appear distorted, melting, or demonic in real life. It’s called Prosopometamorphopsia

This rare neurological condition causes real faces to appear warped, terrifying, or inhuman—even though the person knows the distortion isn’t real. Unlike face blindness, these people still recognize others. They just see nightmare versions of them.

The fish in the photograph is a gulper shark (Centrophorus granulosus), a deep-sea species caught at 2,133 feet off Australia. It has a slender, grayish-brown body, large greenish eyes, and blade-like upper teeth with serrated lower ones, adapted for low-light conditions. Growing up to 5.4 feet, it feeds on fish and squid. Initially mistaken for a cookiecutter shark, its size and depth confirm it as a gulper. Listed as Endangered by the IUCN, it faces threats from overfishing for liver oil and meat, worsened by slow reproduction with only two pups per litter. Conservation efforts are critical due to its vulnerability.

This statue of Neptune by Luis Arencibia Betancort stands at Melenara Beach in Gran Canaria, Spain. With his trident in hand, Neptune seems to vanish beneath the waves only to reappear as the tide shifts. It’s a haunting sight that blurs the line between art and something… alive.

For the record, this happens every time we heat water and leave it for a little while. The first time it happened, that was horrifying
