These creepy photos from the 1800s and beyond are seriously terrifying. Which is perfect considering Halloween is just a few short weeks away!

Once you take a look at these vintage creepy photos you might wish that you could unsee them. It's not that they're meant to be scary, which might be why these creepy photos are so intense. There's something about old photos with no context to them that can completely freak you out!

The Victorian Era, when many of these photos were taken, had some strange customs when it came to photographs. They often liked to not only pose with their dead, but mothers would do weird things like drape a cloth over themselves while holding their baby so they could have a photo taken without the baby looking like it was being propped up. They also liked to pose with strange puppets and wear gas masks while taking group photos. We don't know about you but these creepy photos definitely do just that...creep us out!
