Going on the Internet can be an overwhelming experience, and there is a good reason why.
A Netcraft Web Server Survey taken in January 2018 revealed that there are over 1.8 billion
websites on the Internet.
Of course, your purpose for going on the Internet narrows down the number of websites you will
actually visit.
Some people go on the Internet to look for employment, while others are online retailers
or students trying to write a research paper.
And then there are people who are looking for something different outside of the realm
of the ordinary.
What are some websites that can satisfy the need to see something bizarre, strange, or
even frightening?
We will examine some of these websites in this episode of The Infographics Show, "Top
10 Creepiest Internet Websites."
10.
The Occult Museum – theoccultmuseum.com
The Occult Museum is a fairly new website that is packed with creepy content.
Started in 2015, the website states that it is "dedicated to collecting the strange,
macabre and the supernatural."
It covers a wide variety of paranormal topics, including haunted places, supernatural destinations,
and mythic monsters.
It also features true crime articles about topics such as serial killers, unsolved crimes,
and mysterious disappearances.
In addition, The Occult Museum shares true stories submitted by readers.
Some of them are ghost stories and urban legends, but others are firsthand accounts of strange,
unexplained, and/or disturbing events experienced by people such as doctors, 911 operators,
truckers, and morticians.

The Black Vault – theblackvault.com
According to its Facebook page, The Black Vault is "a massive research center archiving
what the U.S. government is trying to hide . . .. from YOU."
Its creator, John Greenewald, Jr., has compiled an extensive database of declassified documents
from the FBI, CIA, and other U.S. government organizations with "secret" information.
There are documents about historical figures such as Adolf Hitler, organizations such as
The Church of Scientology, and weapons programs such as "Electron Beam Systems in Space."
The site also includes celebrity FBI files.
For instance, you can see a Xerox copy of a threatening letter sent to the Beatles in
1964.
In the letter, the sender told the Beatles to cancel their 1964 performance in Denver
or else "I'm going to throw a hand grenade instead of jelly babies."
In addition, there are declassified FBI documents about "fringe" topics such as Area 51
and Bigfoot.
And there's more.
The Black Vault offers case files on recent and past UFO sightings, alien encounters,
cryptozoology, and other paranormal topics.
Other features of the site include a chat room and a radio show.

DiedInHouse.com For a fee, you can receive a report from DiedInHouse.com
that contains information about people who died at an address you enter into the website.
The report also discloses whether there was a fire at the property, if the property was
used as a meth lab, and if any registered sex offenders lived at the address.
You also get a list of registered sex offenders in the entire zip code area of your address.
Currently, DiedInHouse.com can generate reports only for official addresses in all 50 states
of the US.
7.
Vincentcastiglia.com
This website is the online portfolio of American artist Vincent Castiglia.
While his surreal artwork depicting archetypal themes of life, death, and decay is eerie
on its own, the fact that he paints them with human blood adds to the creep factor.
He paints most of his artwork with his own blood, but sometimes he paints with the blood
of celebrities.
For example, Castiglia painted a portrait of musician Gregg Allman with Allman's own
blood.
He is also known for painting Lucifer on the guitar of Slayer musician Gary Holt using
Holt's own blood.
Recently, director John Borowski completed a documentary about Castiglia called Bloodlines:
The Art and Life and Vincent Castiglia.
6.
Summum.org
Summum is a religion that incorporates some ancient Egyptian practices and the laws of
the Hebrew prophet Moses.
The followers of this religion set up a nonprofit organization offering Egyptian mummification
services.
They will mummify you even if you do not believe in Summum.
Summum.org provides more information about the procedure used to preserve your body,
which is (bad pun intended) shrouded in mystery.
You actually have to have your body shipped to their site in Salt Lake City, Utah, in
order for them to perform the mummification.
They even warn you that "once your body is received by Summum, no family member or
any other person will be able to see your body again."
This is because they want to work "without interference" from anyone else.
The process can take several months or longer.
When they are done mummifying you, you are sealed up in a mummiform, a custom-made art
form casket, or a traditional casket before you are shipped back to a final resting place
of your choice.
They also mummify pets.
The high cost of their mummification services will probably scare people more than the mummification
process.
The cost of human mummification starts at $67,000.
The website does not specify whether or not this includes the price of a mummiform or
casket.
And you can't use just any old casket.
Summum requires a "full couch 48 oz. bronze or full couch stainless steel casket."
Pet mummification can range between $7,000 to more than $100,000.
5.
Funker530.com
This is the website of a military veteran organization.
According to its Patreon page, the purpose of funker530.com is "to bring the public
an unfiltered view into conflicts unfolding around the globe."
While it features some news and entertainment stories, the primary content of Funker530.com
is combat footage taken in Afghanistan, Iraq, and a few other countries.
There are also videos of other types of shocking incidents that happened around the world such
as security camera footage of a grenade attack in a Ukrainian night club.
Whether captured on or off the battlefield, the footage in these videos is disturbing
and filled with graphic violence.
At one point, YouTube threatened to delete the Funker530.com YouTube channel and most
of its combat footage "due to the controversial nature of the content."
The Funker530 channel is still up and running at least for now, and the Funker530.com website
will be available if its channel is taken down.
4.
Supernaught.com
This website features an extensive collection of murder memorabilia from well-known and
lesser-known serial killers, cannibals, and female killers.
Some items are fairly mundane such as letters and Christmas cards sent from prison and prison
photos, but others are more creepy.
For instance, you can buy a victim morgue photo for $12.00.
This website is even selling a pair of boxer shorts that Charles Manson wore in prison
for $3,500 and dentures that he wore in prison for $50,000!
These items are disturbing not only because of who owned them but also because of the
fact that someone is profiting from the suffering and death of people who were murdered.
3.
Skywaybridge.com
Despite its cheery name, the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa Bay, Florida, has a dark history.
It is supposedly the fourth popular suicide bridge in the United States.
The purpose of skywaybridge.com is to track the number of people who have jumped off of
this bridge.
The statistics posted on the website include the number of successful suicides, possible
suicides, suicide survivors, and saved jumpers.
There is also a list of all known jumpers, the dates they jumped, and additional details
about what happened to them.
The records date back to 1954 when the original bridge first opened (it was rebuilt after
an accident in 1980), but the website is updated frequently to include the latest jump attempts.
In addition to data about the jumpers, the website openly tries to discourage people
from jumping off of the bridge.
It offers suicide prevention resources to encourage people to get help, and it includes
some gruesome details from a news article about what happens to the bodies of jumpers
when they hit the water.
There is also the firsthand account of a fisherman who attempted to save someone who jumped off
the Sunshine Skyway Bridge.
The emotional trauma the fisherman suffered from his encounter with the jumper is a reminder
that suicide causes pain to others besides the suicide victim: "Not only did he take
his life that day.
He impacted mine forever."
2.
Planecrashinfo.com
As its name suggests, planecrashinfo.com is dedicated to providing data that will satisfy
your morbid curiosity about old and new plane crashes from around the world.
Its database covers plane crashes that happened between 1920 and the present.
You can find out such grim statistics as how many fatalities happened aboard the plane
and on the ground.
Plane crash accident scene photos are also included.
There are some special features on the website as well.
For example, find out about famous people who died in plane crashes and details about
the plane accidents that killed them.
If you can't get enough plane crash information, there are links to plane accident report databases
in Australia, Brazil, USA, and a few other countries.
Perhaps the most creepy aspect of this website is its "Last Words" page.
Here you will find cockpit voice recordings (CVRs) and CVR transcripts from plane flights
that crashed.
You get to hear and/or read what was said before final impact.
Some of the recordings are more disturbing than others, particularly the CVRs of those
who knew they were going to die.

The Internet Archive (archive.org) - The Jonestown Death Tape (FBI No.
Q 042)
The Internet Archive is a nonprofit "digital library of Internet sites and other cultural
artifacts in digital form."
Not everything on The Internet Archive is creepy, but if you look around, you can find
some shocking and strange items on this website such the U.S. War Department's footage of
Benito Mussolini's execution and a 1984 music album by Charles Manson.
One of the creepiest "cultural artifacts" featured in The Internet Archive is a digitized
copy of an audio cassette tape found by the FBI at Jonestown, Guyana.
On November 18, 1978, over 900 members of the Peoples Temple cult led by Jim Jones committed
mass suicide at Jonestown by drinking a cyanide-laced drink similar to Kool-Aid. Jones shot himself
in the head following the death of his followers.
This recording on The Internet Archive features Jones's final words to his followers.
After some of his men killed Congressman Leo Ryan and others who were about to leave Jonestown,
he tries to convince his followers that there is no other way for them to have peace except
to die.
While one person suggests the possibility of escaping to Russia as an alternative to
suicide, others are thanking Jones for giving them the strength to choose death.
Someone even tries to persuade the other followers that they should be happy about death.
The background sounds of children screaming as they are dying are disturbing and haunting.
What makes this tape even creepier is that it has slow, ominous sounding music in the
background that was not played live at this tragic death event.
One expert speculates that all the music on this tape are "all shadows from an old recording"
that somehow leaked into this final eerie recording.
So, is there a creepy Internet website that you think belongs on this list?
