These sinister signs may make you feel slightly threatened
Everywhere you go there are so many signs sharing information that you probably don’t notice them all.
After all, they are usually informative at best and harmless at worst.
That’s not the case when it comes to these sinister signs spotted by social media users in North America and Britain and collected into a gallery by Bored Panda.
Among the creepy notices is one on an office door, boasting that the space belongs to someone who is both a veterinarian and a taxidermist.
Another features an image that wouldn’t be out of place in a horror movie: a sinister clown on a carnival ride telling passersby that they have to be as ‘high’ as ββhe is to be allowed to ride the attraction alone.

Meanwhile, another warning tells people that the machine it’s attached to can’t distinguish between flesh and metal – and it doesn’t care.
And then another message, which should be supportive, shows that the important layout is when sharing information. Instead of saying, “We’re all in this together,” because of the gaps between the letters, it seems like it’s saying, “We’re all in this to get her.”

As if clowns weren’t creepy enough, this sign, featuring a somewhat menacing-looking clown tempting little people to drive alone, might give you nightmares
It is difficult to say whether this sign is intended as kind and caring advice, or as a threat
A simple mistake or a killer train literally killing commuters as they reach a town in the north of England?
Whoever wrote this depressing sign seems to want everyone who reads it to be lonely and miserable
This sign on a platform in Britain warns commuters that they must ‘wear a face’ to travel – it would be pretty creepy if they didn’t! We assume it should say ‘face mask’
