A seemingly ordinary group photo has sent people into a frenzy after an unsettling hidden face was discovered, leaving many feeling creeped out.
A Group Photo That’s Far From Normal
The photo, which shows a group of six hikers posing during a trip, has been circulating online, causing quite a stir. It looks like a typical outdoor snapshot at first—people enjoying a hike with trees and greenery in the background, and other hikers visible further away.
However, once you spot the hidden face, you won’t be able to unsee it.
The photo was shared on Reddit by a user, who explained that a friend had sent it to them. The caption read: “A friend of mine sent me this picture from his group of friends in Chile.”
The Hidden Face
Here’s the eerie part: there’s actually a seventh person in the photo, but they’re not immediately visible. It’s not until you take a closer look that the unsettling detail appears.
If you’ve been staring at the photo without seeing it yet, here’s a hint: focus on the bottom left corner.
Between the two women standing on the left, a mysterious face seems to emerge from the shadows. It’s right there, but it’s so subtle that it’s easy to miss at first.
Once you spot it, you may feel a chill down your spine.
The Reactions
Once people noticed the eerie face, the reactions were intense. One Reddit user admitted, “I’m not exaggerating when I say that when I finally saw it, I got goosebumps and felt genuine fear. Wtf. I believe in ghosts again now.”
Another commenter shared their shock: “My dumbass was looking at the red thing in the bottom left corner. I thought it was just someone who had been cut out of the picture… then BOOM, I saw it. I ran to hide under the covers.”
Some users tried to explain the phenomenon more rationally. One said, “It’s just a person who’s also in the group, but their face is hidden by the shadows of the two people around them. The intense blue filter makes it look creepy, but you can see the top of their head and hair in the normal daylight.”
A Creepy Mystery
Despite the logical explanation, many users were still unsettled. “It gave me chills, for sure,” one person commented. “Usually, I laugh off these things or assume the photo’s been altered, but this one is different. Once you see it, there’s no unseeing it.”
Another user pointed out the oddness of the image: “I tried to make sense of it, thinking maybe the guy’s jacket was bunched up or the hair from one of the girls was part of it. But nothing else fits. This is clearly something, or someone, that doesn’t belong there.”
