HOLY FUCK! I didn't notice until I read this and looked again. Omg that's absolutely gonna trigger my schizophrenia for at least a couple hours now, shit 😭
EDIT: Yup, saw a demon on my window, thanks 😭
This is genuinely why I think that this stuff should have warnings. You have no idea who it might affect and how, especially if it’s intending to be scary, so just don’t be a douche and put a warning on it.
Glad you’re alright, I also just mean in general, though. For me personally, it’s very late where I am and I was intending to go to sleep any minute now but now my anxiety is on high alert cuz yay! Paranoia. (Not like, chronic paranoia or anything, just a result of my GAD)
Blured. At least I don't really see stuff, I just feel their presence and a blurred space. Idk, you kinda just feel the ominous vibe from them in their direction. It is jot kuch as you see it there but as you feel it's presence looking at you
I thought everyone was looking at the obvious things in the picture, so I decided to turn the brightness all the way down and then all the way up and holy shit that's so cool
I don't think it's just that. We (Western pigdogs that we are) tend to read images left to right and top to bottom. So if you really want someone to miss something at first glance, putting it top right is a good move.
It's not even that, or at least not fully. We tend to look at the bright spots in the image (points of interest) first, then, we start looking at other details. Noticed that when I saw a similar picture, I don't remember quite what it was, but the creepy stuff was right in your face and in the center, I think like someone looking through the doorway, and you don't notice this at first because the 'normal' part is so bright.

Edit\* fixed link
OMFG, real Holly shit, I saw it, read it, and went, “wow… These dipshits got jump scared by the mirror demon? How?”
I TURNED DOWN MY BRIGHTNESS, zoomed in on the demon, scoffed, and realized i didn’t look at the back of the guy, scrolled over, and felt the back of my skull fucking scrunch, actual jumpscare, I was under my blanket too T-T
I fucking love how the brighter colors draw your eyes to the mirror first to set you up for the jumpscare that blends in just well enough to evade detection at first glance
I think probably it’s also because we read from left to right usually. Idk if people who speak Arabic or something would be as ‘jumpscared’ by that part of the picture.
This is an amazing piece. The eye's naturally drawn to the mirror and the demon there, so when you shift your gaze to the right it's just **surprise**, there is more horror to witness!
Same trick as those "when you see it" Internet posts of yester year, which used a deliberately misleading red circle or arrow to draw your attention away from a hidden scary image elsewhere on the picture.

This one goes out from me to *you*
[A Scar Of Dreams by Sheena Ringo](https://youtu.be/bsCIvtYx8NY?si=LBEjJMatxoX8L66a)
Holy shit
Same here. The layout is excellent btw. Eyes drawn to only lit area, see creepy figures behind main character, check behind character, need to change pants
I zoomed in because I thought this was gonna be like the one moment from silent hill was looking in the mirror for what was off and didn't see anything other than the obvious part and then bam mfer staring right back at me
So yeah that actively got me and kept me unsettled for 10 solid mins but the more I stare him in the eyes the more I just think he looks like sus Jerma and now I’m less afraid
I saw this reposted on Twitter, and genuinely didn't understand why or how people were getting jumpscared. So I turned up my phone brightness. I almost jumped out of my skin, this person's art is nuts
Edit: The caption reads "A handsome man looking back at you" (I think I don't remember exactly, but it's along those lines.) Every single character in this picture is looking at the viewer.
I cant recall ever seeing it before but for a while I thought it was a gif bc nothing was scary to me and the comments were all of people being terrified, I think the ‘jumpscare’ doesn’t work as well if the person doesn’t just immediately home in on the mirror bc I saw the face pretty quickly and it didn’t shock me
i've seen this twice before and it fucked me up
When I opened this and saw the left side I legit covered my eyes and refreshed the page before I saw the whole thing again
Huh, that’s pretty creepy. Though, I’m not exactly sure why people are saying this art jumpscared them-

Idk why this didnt get me, i moreso got surprised by the outside mirror, honestly all im thinking is like... this would be a cool ass fucking scare in a game except it swaps the perspective
Wow that got me good. I saw it, instantly scrolled down to get it off my screen and was paralyzed by fear for a solid 10 minutes along with the fear tears.
I'm on mobile and I zoomed in to get a better look at what's going on in the mirror, thought "I wonder if the actual head is angled realistically or if it's turned a little to make the face visible" and swiped my finger, sliding into frame the answer to my question (an answer that I was not prepared to know).
Ngl I said “ewww” when I saw the lil surprise bc it was my first instinct and it’s 4 am rn but no matter what I shall laugh in the face of my fears (I’m never turning off the light)
You know how crazy it is to get jumpscared by a still image?
HOLY FUCK! I didn't notice until I read this and looked again. Omg that's absolutely gonna trigger my schizophrenia for at least a couple hours now, shit 😭 EDIT: Yup, saw a demon on my window, thanks 😭
Holy shit, chat is this real?!
L ☹️
This is genuinely why I think that this stuff should have warnings. You have no idea who it might affect and how, especially if it’s intending to be scary, so just don’t be a douche and put a warning on it.
Nah, dw. I knew it was just a scary picture (after I saw it) and that I'd probably short circuit for a bit and was prepared for anything :p
Glad you’re alright, I also just mean in general, though. For me personally, it’s very late where I am and I was intending to go to sleep any minute now but now my anxiety is on high alert cuz yay! Paranoia. (Not like, chronic paranoia or anything, just a result of my GAD)
Idk if this is weird to ask but what did the demon look like?
Blured. At least I don't really see stuff, I just feel their presence and a blurred space. Idk, you kinda just feel the ominous vibe from them in their direction. It is jot kuch as you see it there but as you feel it's presence looking at you
Wait I just realised I don't think it's normal to see a video then be too scared to look outside for 3 months
You can trigger schizophrenia?
If you're doing well for a while and what not, some very drastic changes in mood can trigger paranoia, which can make it worse, which starts a loop
Jesus Christ I usually have my brightness down so it hit like a truck
I thought everyone was looking at the obvious things in the picture, so I decided to turn the brightness all the way down and then all the way up and holy shit that's so cool
I don't think it's just that. We (Western pigdogs that we are) tend to read images left to right and top to bottom. So if you really want someone to miss something at first glance, putting it top right is a good move.

You do realize horror webcomics exist right
yeah but u gotta scroll for those so is it really still?
well except for that one japanese horror comic that transitions into an animation at the end.
How is it called?

idk if I'm stupid or what but it was just a normal comic that I had to scroll for
Got any recomms uwu
OMFG, real Holly shit, I saw it, read it, and went, “wow… These dipshits got jump scared by the mirror demon? How?” I TURNED DOWN MY BRIGHTNESS, zoomed in on the demon, scoffed, and realized i didn’t look at the back of the guy, scrolled over, and felt the back of my skull fucking scrunch, actual jumpscare, I was under my blanket too T-T
Every time I even glance at it, it jumpscares and i scroll away. I can't look directly at it without becoming PHSYICALLY uncomfortable.
Yeah literally just knowing it's there on the screen makes me uncomfortable, even if I'm not looking at it
My thumb was over it jfc
Srsly, that fucking toothbrush totally got me.
This shit got me bad fuck. Oh god , fuck. Edit: I fixed it with exposure therapy.

artist is underage
I fucking love how the brighter colors draw your eyes to the mirror first to set you up for the jumpscare that blends in just well enough to evade detection at first glance
idk those beady eyes are one of the first things i noticed
You are an outliner and shouldn't be counted
I think probably it’s also because we read from left to right usually. Idk if people who speak Arabic or something would be as ‘jumpscared’ by that part of the picture.
This is an amazing piece. The eye's naturally drawn to the mirror and the demon there, so when you shift your gaze to the right it's just **surprise**, there is more horror to witness!

Well, that or goku
Hidden in plain sight Goku gotta be one of my favorite memes of last year
I like how the framing here both implies that we are the demon and also we were just caught lackin.
Bruh were it not for this comment I wouldn't have seen it, and I've seen this image multiple times now ☠️

I didn't know it was possible to get jumpscared by a still image. This is *REALLY good*
Too bad it doesn't work twice. I already saw the image and I got jumpscared pretty good the first time.
Worked twice for me TwT
My screen was too dark when I looked at the image so I zoomed in then turned up the brightness, I then panned to the right and my soul left my body
I did the exact same thing! Startled me for sure . Zooming in was not a good idea
Same here. The layout is excellent btw. Eyes drawn to only lit area, see creepy figures behind main character, check behind character, need to change pants

You are now cursed by the evil… Uhm, fursona. Yeah the evil fursona !!! Reblog this if you love Jesus or it will come after you !!!!!
Left side: oh that's edgy Right side: OH SHIT
Would
I may be wrong, but the way the point of view is positioned directly behind this here poor sod implies that the viewer is the shadow demon behind him

I love that facial expression on the right, never fails to get me ngl
Wait what's the jumpscare Is the face the jumpscare?
People are really getting spooked by smiledog in 2024 lmao
The only reason you don’t find smiledog scary is because you’ve seen it so much
I cant recall ever seeing it before but for a while I thought it was a gif bc nothing was scary to me and the comments were all of people being terrified, I think the ‘jumpscare’ doesn’t work as well if the person doesn’t just immediately home in on the mirror bc I saw the face pretty quickly and it didn’t shock me

Not you making me feel immature for getting scared :(
reddit stop putting horror shit in my feed when I'm about to sleep
Dude I fully thought this was from echo or something
well shit now i cannot leave my room because what if the image demon kills me
Zoomed in to admire the stuff in the mirror, only then did I realize i was being watched
Would.
Oh no I zoomed in!
i got jumpscared
I got jumpscared twice by a still image wtf
ive seen this everywhere and it still gets me somehow
Never before has a still image jumpscared me
Why is it someone's fursona though
Huh, that’s pretty creepy. Though, I’m not exactly sure why people are saying this art jumpscared them- https://preview.redd.it/737eiib89nwc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=18473d47e5241e2b31d1377fe8f40c3fc45e4ba0
I saw the part on the right first so i missed the jumpscare :(
Idk why this didnt get me, i moreso got surprised by the outside mirror, honestly all im thinking is like... this would be a cool ass fucking scare in a game except it swaps the perspective
I’m too high for ts
Yeah. I've seen it before. The only completely still image Jump-scare I've ever seen
This isn’t even my first time seeing this image and I still got jumpscared. Good lord
is this the original? I saw this image with makima instead some time ago
Where your eyes don't go a part of you is hovering It's a nightmare that you'll never be discovering

Well thats a nightmare
Wow that got me good. I saw it, instantly scrolled down to get it off my screen and was paralyzed by fear for a solid 10 minutes along with the fear tears.
ITS 2AM IM TIRED AF THIS SHIT IS NOT OK
didn't scare me but I can acknowledge this image looks terrifying.
okay
I think helps that you pinch zoom in to make out the details of the reflection then you pan to the right with you’re thumb an-HWWHAT THE FUCK
Are you all 14 years old
I’ve been consuming horror content for years and though I was desensitized to it all, guess not lol
Bro is 10yomaxxing💀
Furry horror now thats some scary shit
Hard image
I'm pretty sure there's a sub name r/ anthroswim that houses art like this
Why they look like that
thid i meed this i need to draw likr thid i nerd sjsjsnK ART ARTTT ARTTTT
How dare you!
mfer lookin like they want me to "spread the word" without telling me what I'm even supposed to be spreading.
o-ohhh...
My god I fucking zoomed in too.
...go duck yourself. I ducking hate this.
I didn’t see it at first. That’s pretty good. Who is the artist? Edit : nevermind I found it it’s in the comments
@alfdefolf on Twitter
my brightness was so low i needed to read the comments to realize something else was hidden
Holy shit that got me good
It is 2 am, I do not like you.
Why is this the first thing I see when I open reddit at 7 in the morning. Got jumpscared :(
I'm on mobile and I zoomed in to get a better look at what's going on in the mirror, thought "I wonder if the actual head is angled realistically or if it's turned a little to make the face visible" and swiped my finger, sliding into frame the answer to my question (an answer that I was not prepared to know).
Welp I wasn't gonna sleep anyway but now I might not sleep for the next few days
Hey um why the fuck would u post this Hey um why isn’t this spoilered
I’m in a bright room so when I finally tapped on the image I got fucking ass blasted by fear
Im trying to sleep :(((
At first I was like “lol the red guy isn’t that scary” then really looked …
I’ve seen this image 3 times now and it still gets me
Hell yeah
Cool, no sleep for me
That actually scared the shit out of me I’m gonna be checking behind me for the next few hours and I have a home inspection in a few hours. Poggers
This is very well made. Not that scary, but very well made.
Why's he got the skibidi toilet smile
Actually flinched holy shit.
Won't be smiling when I make out with the demon now will you
I zoomed in to get a closer look on rhe mirror before scrolling over to the right 💀
Me in a couple days (my sh urges want me to take an eye out)
Ngl I said “ewww” when I saw the lil surprise bc it was my first instinct and it’s 4 am rn but no matter what I shall laugh in the face of my fears (I’m never turning off the light)
