Pareidolia is an interesting psychological phenomenon which makes us see familiar shapes in random things.

The results of that ranges from the funny to the scary, as you’ll be able to see in the pictures galery I selected.

Some cases got famous… for the skeptical, almost all ghost, spirit and alien photos can be considered pareidolias.

Smiling and crying faces on faucets, trees, doors, and random things are also part of this.

And finally, Jesus face on a door, the Virgin Mary on a toast, and random saints appearing on trees, on the light that shines through a window, and other things like that.

I made a small gallery of pics:
