25 Signs That Have No Business Being So Terrifying

by Kylin

Rules are usually made because of the undesired actions or consequences of another person in the past. And generally, that reasoning extends to posted signs in various places.

I, for one, would much rather learn from someone else's mistakes than do it myself. Like being mindful that there are poisonous varieties of mushrooms in the area if you’re foraging, or that a popular national forest has the “worst weather in America” so you’d probably not want to do much exploring if the weather isn’t looking perfect.

Someone already did the hard work of finding out about dangerous things that encourage enforcement of rules or posting of warning signs. It’s not only beneficial to us but also polite, to heed any warnings.

While it can be shocking, surprising, or generally a bummer to see signs that warn about the darker realities of life, like “drowning risk,” “encephalitis causing mosquitos in the area,” or “tick area”, these signs are only doing us a favor. It can be a nice feeling that someone, somewhere, cares enough about you and me to try to keep us safe.

Or maybe they are just covering their asses for liability or having to be responsible for finding any remains. It may forever be a mystery but for now, you can scroll to check out 25 signs that are inherently creepy.
