The People In The Corner Of Your Eye.

Ever thought you’ve seen something in the mirror that wasn’t there? Something or someone just out of sight catch your eye for a second, but are gone when you quickly try to focus on them. I was just reading this interesting article on the theory behind this phenomena. What’s really scary is how often in life your own brain isn’t really on your side. I find that way scarier than crappy ‘shadow-people’.

If I see one more horror movie where someone’s in the bathroom standing at the sink staring at themselves, and they go to get something out the bathroom medicine-cabinet, and as they close the mirrored door there’s something\someone behind them, and they scream and turn around and no one’s there. If I see that scene one more time in a horror movie, I’m gonna scream. I’m more freaked out when someone opens the medicine-cabinet in a horror movie, and there’s no one there when they close it. This scene should be outlawed from horror movies for ten… maybe twenty years, until it starts being scary again.

Anyway, you should read this article. Because science can be just as scary, and as much fun as the supernatural sometimes.
