Izlude Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 It usually happens when I relax. I'll stare at the rug, popcorn ceiling and any textured surface. Suddenly a face appears out of nowhere and is very apparent. After a few seconds, it disappears and I can't find it anymore. Here's a photo i took of one I saw a second ago. Before it could get away, i snapped this pic and outlined it for you to see. Is this common or am I simply just nutty? :p Glassed Silver 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1065650-ever-see-animal-faces-on-the-wall-ceiling-and-carpet/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

shockz Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I remember I used to do notice this when I was younger, now though they never catch my eyes. Probably because I never get a chance to relax.

Charisma Veteran Posted March 22, 2012 Veteran Share Posted March 22, 2012 I see things like that too :D I'm happy I am not the only one! Although shockz has a point--it seems like I don't get to as often as I used to.

spikey_richie Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 We have patterned curtains in our bedroom, and the set on the left has a luck dragon's head which appears when the curtains are closed in a certain way.

Glassed Silver Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I see hearts all the time... Animals rather less often. But there is a frog on our stairs... Might take and upload a picture if you guys want.

TAZMINATOR Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Try this: 1. Go to bathroom then stand in front of the mirror. 2. Lights off. (If you have windows, wait until night time so make sure that the room is dark enough. It doesn't have to be pitch black but make sure that you can barely see yourself in the mirror. It might work in totally dark if you can not see yourself in mirror.) 3. Stare at the mirror as long as you can until you see something changes. 4. Come back here to tell us what you saw.

Dusco25 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Everyone does it.. It is a natural response of our brains to try to make patterns out of things that is why it is always something we see the most... Faces. We can find a simile face out of just about anything we look at :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1065650-ever-see-animal-faces-on-the-wall-ceiling-and-carpet/#findComment-594750468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_K Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 There's a psychology test with faces, one half of the image is kept and the other side discarded, then that part is copied and flipped and you see which side is 'happiest' to you... I was impressed with my exact middle score of 50%, apparently it's very odd.
