Bezold Effect

2 optical illusions with Category: Zombies

The human brain is remarkably good at recognizing faces and bodies, but it can also be fooled by shadows, unusual lighting, and partial information. Add special effects makeup or an unfortunate camera angle, and a perfectly healthy person can suddenly appear terrifying. That’s exactly why zombie-themed optical illusions work so well—they exploit the shortcuts our brains normally use to recognize people.

This fungus is named Xylaria polymorpha, but more commonly known as dead man's fingers. This example is a perfect illusion, with 5 digits and more shaped like a hand than other specimens. It really looks like a zombie is going to rise up from the ground.
