People left 'unsettled' after spotting 'ghost' hidden in group photo - so, can YOU see it?
Reddit user who goes by the name CursedEmoji posted the snap online - saying their friend had sent them a picture of their trip to Chile.
Upon first glance, it may seem as though there are a group of six people - four women and two men - posing for the snap while trekking in a forest.
However, a less obvious, much darker looking face appeared to be lurking in the snap.
After being shared online, people were quick to share how they were 'creeped out'.
One wrote: 'Oof. That definitely made my heart jump when I finally found it.'
Another penned: 'I thought it was about the top of a head behind the guy on the right. Oh yeah, I saw the witch too!'
A third said: 'It was a completely normal picture before zooming in. It's a creepy picture with a very clear ghost face.'
A fourth commented: 'Looks like someone's grandma is travelling with them,' while a fifth chimed in and added: 'Nah that actually scared me a bit.'
Upon first glance, it may seem as though there are group of six people - four women and two men - who are posing for a selfie while trekking in a forest - but on further inspection, there appears to be a spirit lurking in the picture
However, others questioned whether the picture was real, with some theorising that it might've been a camera glitch or even Photoshop.
One wrote: 'Creepy! Seems a little too good to be true, though.'
Another penned: 'That's absolutely Reagan from the exorcist photoshopped in, things like this sadly dampen paranormal photography.'
A third said: 'Looks photoshopped to me, just too obvious. I saw it pretty quickly.'
A fourth commented: 'Looks like a digital error of some kind. Face looks similar to the dude on the left.'
This comes as a professional exorcist debunked movie myths and revealed which people are most likely to get possessed by 'demons'.
Ralph Keeton, a medium and exorcist from Hull with more than 25 years of experience under his belt, went on the People Are Deep podcast to share his stories of apparently communicating with spirits.
The interviewer on the show spoke about the 1973 supernatural film The Exorcist, which follows a young girl who has become possessed, after playing with an Ouija board.
In one scene, she is filmed sitting up as her head spins around and she is also seen throwing up green vomit while having a violent fit - but this is an inaccurate depiction of a possession, according to Ralph.
He said: 'It's much more of a natural phenomenon. On a very rare case is someone lifted or moved around a property.
'Most of the time, it's more physical things happening to a person. So it's like an object hitting you or a lesion coming onto your skin or mental breakdowns.
'It's things that are more common. That case with the film, I've never witnessed anything like that.'
Ralph gave an example of one of his rarer cases where he dealt with a woman who had 'a sexual ghost attacking her'.
He said: 'When you see fingerprints on skin, legs being pulled apart and lifted up and dragged, you can't tell me that's her doing it because we couldn't physically stop it.
'It was a case of me getting hold of her and then deciding what we were going to do.
'It's a hard concept for anyone to get their head around, because this type of stuff exists in CGI and films and things like that. When it's happening in real life, it's a whole new ball game.'
During the chat, Ralph revealed that 'weak' individuals are the most likely to apparently get possessed as they will likely allow the spirit to take over their bodies.
He said: 'You've got to be quite weak-willed for it to happen because you need to let someone take control of you. In most cases in life as a human being, you naturally go against that.
'I don't know about you, but when someone says "No" to me, I say "What do you mean, no?" But they will try and take over you.'
The experienced medium said that it can be challenging to get rid of an energy once it has taken over someone's body.
'Once an energy is gone, it's like a bereavement. In half the cases I've dealt with, a lot of people are half expecting it to come back,' he added.
'Well if you're half expecting it back, you're half bringing it back again.

Emmerdale fans hit out at dullest villain in soap's history
Meanwhile, he then found Owen Michaels (Simon Haines) unconscious during a home visit, but left him to die, as he came up with a plan to attempt to frame him for Nate's death. Instead of calling an ambulance and getting help, John wrote a note on Owen's laptop, 'confessing' he killed Nate. 8 Most Iconic British Soap Characters of All Time Emmerdale fans slam 'boring' villain John Sugden on ITV soap But viewers don't seem too impressed with John's tactics as many on Reddit claim he is the 'most boring 'serial killer/villain' they've ever seen'. Someone's post on the r/emmerdale subreddit said: 'I know this sounds super morbid but c'mon, am I alone in thinking we've been waiting ages for him to get really 'villian-y'?!' They added: 'I've been waiting for this man to go full-on psycho, otherwise, we've just suffered along with this boring story for close to a year now to watch him squirrel around the village with rolled up sleeves 24/7, act like a weirdo, and talk about how great of a medic he is??' This fan agreed: 'You nailed it! He's BORING.' Another wrote: 'I think he bores himself, hence the need to feel that high of bringing folks to the brink of death and then playing hero to revive them.' One person commented: 'His rolled up sleeves are the most interesting thing about him.' While this profile responded: 'Yes, he is so boring easily the dullest and most uninteresting serial killer in soap history.' However, some disagree and think John is an 'interesting' character. This viewer explained: 'The weird need to be a saviour, the fact you can tell he feels guilty about his actions (especially Nate) yet can't bring himself not to do it again or hand himself in. Soaps That Have Won the Most Awards 'I've enjoyed the slow burn and seeing how his actions have managed to go undetected so far. 'I'm very much looking forward to seeing the truth come out and how he reacts and how the rest of the village will react too.' Also in agreement, one viewer shared: 'I enjoy him! He's a quieter, calmer, different kind of villain'. They revealed the character is better than the 'usual' sort of villain the soap has become known for, 'with dramatic murders, unrealistic kidnappings, and over-the-top hostage situations'. The fan continued: 'Of course I say this and John's probably going to kidnap somebody at some point. Hopefully not though. 'But I enjoy that they're playing it like he's just a desperate guy who does kind of bad things for selfish reasons. I think the hero complex angle is quite fresh for soap. 'We are getting a decent insight into his guilt and feelings and such through the helpline calls and just his whole haunted demeanor, which adds to the complexity. I guess it's just not that engaging for some people. 'Maybe it's missing a bit of backstory to tell us why he's like this, I'm not sure.' Recommended reading: This person, who is also a fan of John, said: 'I like him. He's not written or acted like your typical soap villain, which makes him interesting to me. I think if he hadn't been paired with Aaron - who brings down every character he's tied to - his reception would have been better.' Someone else who enjoys John's character chimed in: 'I like him, think he's quite nuanced and layered - hate him but that's what makes him enjoyable.' How do you feel about John Sugden on Emmerdale? Let us know if you think he's a good soap villain in the comments below.

Bride left furious after sister-in-law wears 'wedding dress' to her big day
A bride was left fuming after her sister-in-law wore a 'wedding dress' to her big day. Taking to the popular Reddit forum Wedding Shaming', an outraged guest shared photos of the woman in question, revealing a white, floor-length gown with floral detailing. Looking uncomfortably like a bride, the rebellious attendee claimed she was wearing a sage green dress in accordance with the dress code, which was 'pastel chic'. But the disgruntled bride was not happy, especially as her mother-in-law had already put in a request to wear white, which was denied. The poster wrote: 'The dress code was summer pastel chic, so think Easter colours. 'The girlfriend of the groom's brother wore a sage green (wedding) dress that in no way, shape or form appeared to be sage green, or any other colour. 'The veil she's carrying was the flower girl's (her daughter). This was after the mother-in-law had asked the bride if she could wear a white jumpsuit to the wedding, to which the bride obviously said no.' Aside from the colour, the design of the dress appeared obviously bridal - complete with off-the-shoulder sleeves and a romantic, figure-hugging silhouette. To further undermine the claim that the dress was 'sage green', the sister-in-law is pictured wearing sage green shoes, with which the white dress starkly contrasts. The post racked up thousands of comments and sparked a fiery debate, with many shocked on behalf of the bride. One commenter wrote, simply: 'Wow, that's very bridal,' to which another incredulous user responded: 'Yeah this is straight up a wedding dress.' Another comment dished out some seemingly obvious wedding guest advice, writing: 'To be safe, you should never wear any white dress to a wedding that is not yours. 'That being said, not all white dresses are wedding dresses. This is absolutely a wedding dress.' At first glance, the images tripped many commenters up before they realised what they were looking at. One said: 'I was like "Cool, so what does the sister-in-law look like?"' Another chimed in: 'Exactly what I was going to say. The poster clearly included pictures of the actual bride for comparison then forgot to add pictures of the offending sister-in-law… nope.' A third felt the same, saying: 'My thought before I read the title was, "wow what a beautiful detail shot of the bride and the tablescape"... some people are insane.' Although the rule of avoiding white on someone else's special day seems obvious enough, it is often broken. 'To be safer, as a bride, bring a paintball gun to your wedding,' advised one person. 'No white dresses but the bride. 'This policy will be enforced by the bride via paintball gun. If you do not wish to be painted, please do not wear a fresh white canvas.' Some eagle-eyed followers were quick to spot the difference between the sage green shoes and the supposedly green dress. 'I like how her SHOE was sage green,' said one. 'Like, she had a perfect example of what the color is supposed to look like. 'Instead she went about as white as you can go on the color wheel. Wtf. Who thinks this is appropriate?' A second joked: 'The dress looks like the smell of the color sage from another room.' While holding the flower girl's veil, the sister-in-law's nuptial look goes even further. The poster wrote: 'The flower girl is her daughter, but as a cherry on top: the daughter was also the ring bearer and was too nervous to walk down the aisle so guess who walked down with her? Mommy dearest.' The majority of commenters could not believe the 'insane' decision to wear 'a full on wedding gown,' but others sided with the guest. '"Summer Pastel chic" is simply asking for trouble,' wrote one. 'Honestly yes,' another agreed. 'So many pastels photograph white or look white under some lighting.' A third shared their own story, writing: 'I wore a bright yellow floaty pleated dress with a belt to a friend's wedding. It was so clearly bright yellow, I thought it was a safe choice. Nope! 'A lot of the evening photos were black and white. My dress looked like a wedding dress.' While the memo could be to blame, the comment section is unanimous in their belief that there is no lighting that could redeem the sister-in-law's poor outfit choice.

I'm a teacher and I was left fuming by my end of year gift – it's borderline insulting & so cheap
If you're looking for end of year gift inspiration this is not the place to find it LESSON LEARNT I'm a teacher and I was left fuming by my end of year gift – it's borderline insulting & so cheap Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WITH schools across the country breaking up for summer this week teachers are set to be in for a treat with a deluge of end of year gifts. However, one educator was left less than impressed by their gift with people describing it as 'insulting.' Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 A teacher was left insulted by a very lacklustre gift Credit: Reddit Taking to Reddit the teacher shared a snap of their disappointing present, captioning the image 'What my school gave its teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week.' Much like the end of term in the UK, Teacher Appreciation Week is celebrated in the US by giving staff gifts as an acknowledgement of their hard work. But in this case the teacher would rather they hadn't bothered at all. The teacher revealed they had been given a total of seven Starburst sweets for being 'the star of our school.' But that's not all, they were also handed a sheet of bubble wrap with the instructions to 'pop every hour' as a form of stress relief. Fellow Redditors were equally baffled by the lacklustre gift, sharing their thoughts in the comments. One wrote: "This is so insulting.' 'Not even a whole pack though, how cheap can you possibly be,' added another. A third chimed in: 'Here's some left over Halloween candy and the packing material that came with something we wanted.' It comes after a mum-of-two named Lou took to social media to ask teachers what gifts they actually want to receive. I'm a mum of two and made Xmas gifts for my kids' teachers for £6, using bargains from Asda, Lidl and B&M The content creator shared her short clip with the caption 'Primary school teacher gifts help?!' Alongside her video, Lou then asked: 'Primary school teachers: What makes a great gift? 'I don't want to just get a mug or a key ring. 'Tell me something you actually WANT to get?' The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @lemon_squeezey, was posted just three days ago, but has quickly racked up 242,600 views, 566 likes and 916 comments. Teachers eagerly flocked to the comments to share the gifts parents should buy - with many suggesting gift cards. But there's also a free item that takes minutes to do and isn't a handmade card. One teacher shared a free idea that is so simple but really effective: "An email to the headteacher saying how amazing we are."
