    This was an interesting read and almost made me subscribe… And then I saw the rest was “the worst pedophile” “serial killer” “possible cannibal” aaaand I’ll just nope myself out of here.

      Like you, I’m not into the entries you mentioned. So, I try to post “oddly fascinating” articles as much as possible, and even tweaking the premise of this community on the sidebar to cut down on comments saying that it’s “not creepy”.

      Some of my favorites are: Shell Grotto, Wooden Spoons Museum, HitchBOT, Fremont Troll, Kryptos, Michael Larson, and Georgia Guidestones. There’s more on our pinned list.
