Haunting Photos With Ghostly Presences
"A 2009 photo from the Lemp Mansion in St. Louis, MO. Zoom in on the bathroom floor tiles."
Do you see it? Pet ghost? Or a mere trick of the shadows.
"My family member went on a hike, but someone (or something) showed up in her photo."
Did you see it? Is this the ghost? Or perhaps a stranger with a creepy photobomb?
"This photo was taken in 2013, I'm still dumbfounded by it."
"What are your thoughts?"
"Photo taken on the main graveyard (Zentralfriedhof) in Vienna."
What do you think? A floating torso or an optical illusion?
"Photo taken in 2019 in Gatlinburg, Tennessee."
Is that the face of an apparition behind this couple enjoying dinner? Or is this a camera malfunction? Because...what...the hell...is that?
"Ghost or a lens flare?"
"My dad is pretty sure it's a lens flare, but it does look very uncanny. I have shown these pictures to multiple people, and they all think it's a ghost."
"Picture from a hospital CCTV camera shows what appears to be a demon on top of a dying patient."
The scariest part is the photo quality, but whatever that is, it looks like something straight out of a horror movie.
"My friend has recently shown me this picture from 2016 of him and his brother at the front of Blackpool beach at 7 a.m. Photo taken by mother, when they looked at the photo, they saw the figure between the legs and looked around, and nobody was there."
Did you see it? Now you can't unsee it.
"Little girl"
Be sure to wave back at this little ghost if you ever see her.
"Something was peeking at me."
I think someone is keeping an eye...and that someone is on the ceiling.
"Can anyone explain this?"
My man...there's something else in your room.
"Night shift at target."
This brightened image shows that someone, or something, is lurking in Target.
"There was something in my woods last night."
Headlights? Glowing eyes? Something else??? You be the judge.
"My aunt's china cabinet."
Just a trick of the camera, or a reflection from beyond?
"Weird figure captured in the middle of the woods."
Someone — or something — lurking.

The recall affects approximately 302,000 units sold at Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe's, BJ's Wholesale Club, and several major online retailers. Sales took place from February 2021 through July 2025, with prices ranging from $56 to $70. An additional 11,000 units were distributed in Canada. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall after reports of injuries stemming from a faulty safety bar, urging consumers to stop using the product immediately and contact Dorel Home Furnishings for a free repair kit. The Consumer Product Safety Commission warned: "The safety bar can detach or break while in use, posing serious fall and injury hazards to consumers." Newsweek contacted Dorel Home Furnishings' listed press representative and Cosco's recall unit via email on Sunday, outside of normal business hours. Cosco 2-Step Kitchen Stepper.

These steppers were available in white/gray, green, navy, and blue, and feature the Cosco logo molded onto the handle. Model numbers can be found on a label on one of the stepper's arms. The recall was prompted by 34 reports of the safety bar detaching or breaking, including two incidents that resulted in head injuries, CPSC's alert said.

The same day I received it, I was making broccoli, and my hubby doesn't like it in big chunks, so I decided to try to break up the broccoli with it, and it was SO fast and easy!!

And when you're done cooking, the glass cooking dish is also your Tupperware *with* lid. It got 5 stars from me and them. ⬇️ Promising reviews: "It was time to replace my old, tired air fryer. I love several other Ninja kitchen appliances, so Ninja was the first company I looked at. That's where I found the Ninja Crispi. I was intrigued by the glass cooking compartment and its unique design. It air fries my frozen fries and tater tots evenly. I also air-fried three boneless pork chops for 15 minutes, which were so juicy and perfectly cooked! The glass cooking compartment is a breeze to clean, too. I could not be more pleased with this air fryer!" —Babs"I currently have a kitchen with no oven and a very small stovetop. This is a GAME CHANGER. I've used this several times today after receiving it in the mail. Made baked sweet potatoes, air fried chicken wings, air fried fish sandwiches - this thing is AWESOME.

It is so worth the money if you plan on making different dishes or just have a family of picky eaters." —Mmperry"There's nothing but good coming from this pan! Yummy, crunchy edges on every piece! I made three different kinds of lasagna in this pan, and all I can say is that there were already plans for the next batch before this one was gone! This pan is heavy-duty, has an awesome nonstick coating, and will definitely stand up to much use. The recipe called for spraying the pan with nonstick spray, but it was completely unnecessary. I've already suggested this pan to others." —sreneeGet it from Amazon for $19.49. A magnetic air fryer cheat sheet in case you're ready to risk it all mixing and matching to create your own air-fryer-friendly recipes. Seems like no matter how many times I make chicken, I still can't remember what temp or time to cook chicken on. Anyone else have that problem?

Easily access your daily go-tos without having to move the ketchup and creamer out of the way several times a day. All you have to do is spin it. A mason jar cold brew maker here to have your *cold* cup of Joe ready when you wake up in the morning. Not a coffee person? Have no fear, reviewers also love to use this mason jar to brew their favorite iced teas or infused waters. A dishwasher-safe garlic peeler that TBH is one of those things that you think you have in the kitchen until you buy garlic, and then you realize you don't have it. You'll never not need it because everything is better with garlic. This includes a ventilated case for review: "This thing is awesome. Made of a thick, quality silicone, it feels like it's made to last. This doesn't feel like a cheap, flimsy kitchen tool. Plus, I like that it has a plastic box to keep it clean. I read a bunch of reviews before buying, because there are a ton of garlic peelers on Amazon for super low prices. I chose this one because I trust Oxo as a brand, have many of their other products, and they've lasted. Plus, positive reviews and a protective case. I'm SO happy I got this thing. I put in 2 cloves of garlic, press lightly on the countertop, and roll it, and BAM. Fresh, clean cloves ready to mince for my recipe. A great kitchen tool to simplify and speed up your process." —AfrobellaGet it from Amazon for $9.99. Or! A Dracula garlic mincer, an unserious yet super helpful kitchen gadget that'll give you another reason to smile while making garlic bread. It's a little ironic, too. A vampire that minces garlic — get it? 😂 A KitchenAid stand mixer duh. If you've ever tried to bake, mix, cook, etc., without one of these babies, you know the struggle. This makes the whole putting-all-the-ingredients-together process so much easier and faster. Promising reviews: "I contemplated buying this for quite a while, but didn't due to the price. My husband finally put it in the cart during sales and bought it for me. I am so glad he did! I love it. It makes the job of baking so much quicker, easier, and enjoyable." —MNShopper"I love that this mixer is so heavy-duty. My kids and I like to bake a lot. The way the paddle blade whips up a bar cookie dough is super fast. I like that I can lock the stainless steel bowl down and control the speed of the mixing process. I've yet to have a tough cookie after switching from my hand mixer to the stand mixer. The wire whisk blade also creates the most fluffy meringue, so light and airy. Once again, being able to control the speed of the whisking action has been key in this process. I also love, love, love the dough hook. I have a sourdough bread recipe that calls for a total of 6 cups of flour. Mixing it with my hand mixer was impossible, and stirring by hand was exhausting. However, this mixer's dough blade attachment did the work in hardly no time at all. I was able to put all the ingredients together and get on with the good part of baking bread much faster and having that wonderful aroma permeate my house." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $379.95 (available in 20 colors). A 4-in-1 chopper, spiralizer, dicer and slicer ideal for meal prepping. You can chop onions and nuts, mince herbs, or spiralize zuchinni. And it's compact, which makes it a great addition to kitchens with little to no counter space. Promising review: "What a time saver. I made Pico de Gallo in a couple of minutes. As for the cilantro, I placed 1/2 a jalapeno on the blades, then cilantro. Chopped beautifully. Works very well, well worth the $$." —Yvette GarzaGet it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in five colors). A crepe maker, in case you've constantly tried to make those buttery, thin, flaky sheets of utter goodness, only to be left with a burnt paper-like bready structure. It stops today! Promising reviews: "This thing is great. You can cook a pile of crepes in half the time it takes using a large pan or griddle, and it's way easier. They're perfectly sized and shaped, too." —MixedProducts"My kids love crepes, and I debated a lot if this would be worth it or not — 100% worth it! Makes crepe making so easy! I taught my kids, so now they can make their own. So happy I took a chance on it and got it!" —JenGet it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in seven colors). A rapid egg cooker so you can boil, poach, scramble, or even make an omelet super quickly. Now, you can finally fit breakfast into your morning routine. You'll get picture-perfect eggs every time — just look at the pictures below. 👇🏽 Promising reviews: "This little device speeds up cooking of soft, medium, and hard-boiled eggs by at least 10 minutes because I don't have to wait for water to boil in a pot first. Water starts steaming very quickly. The alarm isn't super loud either. Put the eggs in an ice bath afterwards, and they peel easily. Comes with a measuring cup that also has a pin on the bottom to puncture the eggs before cooking. Excellent instructions, too. It also makes poached and small omelets too." —D.G."This is the best kitchen appliance I have bought in a long time! Super easy and quick to use. I have a busy schedule, and I make egg salad a LOT to take with saves me SO much time and effort. Set it and forget it, but the super loud, continuous buzzer/alarm will NOT let you forget it, which is a nice safety design. Takes exactly 16 minutes to boil eggs, and they are perfect. They're also REALLY easy to peel! I've never peeled eggs so easily before. Huge plus that I hadn't even considered. This little contraption is also pretty small and stores easily. Even if you only boil eggs once in a while, it's worth it!" —Jaime BGet it from Amazon for $17.94+ (available in nine colors).Check out our Dash rapid egg cooker review for more deets! A double breakfast sandwich maker because yes, one would probably take up less space, but you know you're gonna want another, so let's not pretend. Or, you can make two because you know your partner is going to see how good yours looks, and instead of sharing, you can hand them their own. Promising reviews: "I have had this for six months now and use it all the time!!!! Need an easy supper idea…breakfast sammiches!!! Need a quick breakfast!!! Four minutes is all it takes! No more babysitting an egg on the stove and messing with a toaster hoping it melts your cheese…. I'm ordering a second one so I have one for camp and one for home!!!" —Amazon Customer"My husband loves a great breakfast sandwich. This was fun, and quick, and gave us lots of yummy ideas. The quality was actually amazing and really elevated breakfast and lunch. High performance at a super cheap price, well worth it, and will be buying more for gifts. It's quick to clean and stores easily away. The plates are great quality and it's super stable. My kids love it for a quick meal on the run." —Michelle JurichGet it from Amazon for $38.49. A two-basket Ninja air fryer that'll let you cook just about anything you want from the comfort of your dorm. You won't even miss your oven back home. With the double baskets, you can cook two different foods at the same time. Promising reviews: "So I had the original air fryer with one compartment and I was just fine with that. But getting this opened me up to more possibilities. You can cook double the food at separate temperatures much faster. It's got a bit of weight on it but it's sturdy. A little quieter than I expected, too." —UncleNahshon"I have 3 kids and this speeds up dinner time by A LOT. It's one of, if not the best, kitchen item I've purchased." —David GarrisonGet it from Amazon for $159.99 (available in different sizes). A mandoline slicer because, despite the number of tutorials you've watched, cutting even, symmetrical veggies just isn't your strong suit, and that's completely okay. Promising review: "This mandoline has made my life a lot easier when it comes to cooking. It is incredibly sharp, can be adjusted to slice even the most paper-thin slices, and I really like the attachments for salads/garnishes/pickle making, etc." —Angeline"I really have enjoyed using the slicer. I do a lot of raw foods, and it certainly speeds up the process." —Sheila LarsonGet it from Amazon for $30. A set of stainless-steel measuring cups (and spoons!) for quickly portioning off your ingredients so you can get all your ducks in a row before it's time to combine them all for your secret marinade or cupcake batter. Promising reviews: "Simply love everything about the measuring cups and spoons. The extra measuring markings on each cup surprised me and make my 'baking time' go so much faster! Now I can free up drawer space by discarding old plastics with unreadable markings. Thank you for a great product!" —Kricket"This is my second set. I just wanted an extra set to help speed up time on big cooking days. Love them!" —BethGet a 12-piece set from Amazon for $42.99.

This thing was SUPER easy and not messy at ALL!! 5/5 review from me! Get yours NOW!" —Bobbi Ocker"I saw this on Instagram and had to get it. I am pretty much happy with the product. It's very easy to use. Really, anyone can use it, and it doesn't make a lot of mess. It can be a pain to clean, but just a little. Make sure to thoroughly clean. And make sure to have no lumps at all, or you will find the batter difficult to dispense. Overall, I am satisfied, and it speeds up the process." —Jessica it from Amazon for $24.99.
