OMG!!! I just came out of a trance. WARNING! WARNING! Looking into the eyes of the older girl for more than three seconds will cause you to go into a trance.
The younger daughter looks like the doll Talky Tina from the Twilight Zone episode “Living Doll” with Telly Savalas (memba!?) Even the DRESS! (“You better be nice to me”. “I don’t like you.” “I’m going to killll you!”)
This must be the long lost nephew of Barnabas Collins…. (He scares me.) And the older daughter looks ecactly like Tuesday from the Addams family – and the younger daughter looks like Talky Tina from the Twilight Zone episode “Living Doll”. (You better be niice to me! I don’t like you. I’m going to kill you..)
She DOES look like Talk Tina- that doll gave me nightmares! Because of that episode, I NEVER asked for a talking doll as a gift. All my dolls had closed eyes, that’s how scared I was of Talky Tina….
They say CHEESE to the camera man to make it look like they are smiling. You know, “SAY: CHEESE!!!” Apparantly, they are allergic to cheese and are angry and depressed when the photog brings up cheese, and they are so upset they cannot enjoy the gooey-gooness of cheese they look like that.
Around 150 years ago people would rarely have photos taken but sometimes would when a family member died. They would include the family member. As often the pose would be long and the camera technology was fairly poor the the pics would sometimes have a blurry effect as the family members couldn’t help but move a little during the pose. All except the dead one, they’d be clear as a bell (as they obviously didn’t move).
That gruesome bit of knowledge is the first thing I thought of when I saw this photo.
I wasn’t placing the “I’ve Seen This Before Vibe” until I read your comment! lol Now if we could just get one of our photoshop trolls to add Grandma’s creepy floating head!

And the family would never speak again of the drifter buried in the backyard…

Now we know what happened to Tuesday Addams when she was placed in foster care after Gomez was caught torturing ‘Thing.’
instead of paying the power bill they decided on a family photo session
The Adams family (snap, snap)
I’ve always wanted to know what a family of serial killers looks like….
They’re known as “The Others”
it looks like something out of the godfather
The younger daughter looks like the doll Talky Tina from the Twilight Zone episode “Living Doll” with Telly Savalas (memba!?) Even the DRESS! (“You better be nice to me”. “I don’t like you.” “I’m going to killll you!”)
I love that episode of the Twilight Zone.

They were probably getting ready for the picture, when the photographer told them he had one shot left…………….”Oh No i accidently hit the button.”
Just another “Life changing Angelo Moment”
“Evil has a Last Name”
That’s a really pretty picture. I like the seriousness of it. So cool.
they are very pretty, all of them.
maybe they just dont like smiling without proper reason, i admire that.
like I have always been told”the family that smiles together-stays tog-”- ”oops,never mind”
This is a really sad photo.
Older sister looks a like a deer in the headlights.
I hear a Bach fugue on the pipe organ when I look at this picture.
Hmm. Dinner time must be a blast with a portrait like that on the wall.
Haha! agreed
Haha! agreed
oh, man, that cracked me up. *cackles* xD
Yikes! That little girl looks like she might try to do a zombie-walk right out of my TV.
I saw halloween decorations that when you move the picture it shows a skeleton/vampires underneath. This photo would be perfect for that.
Okay, somehow I am missing what “allergic to cheese” refers to… little help, anyone?
say cheese! (click)
Oh, THAT cheese! Got it. Thanks!
Thanks for clearing that up! I wasn’t getting it.
yea..i thought maybe the fact that they were all yellow had something to do with it…
Is this from the movie “The Others”??
little blonde girl reminds me of poltergeist
This photograph exudes joy!
Dark Shadows movie poster.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Timothy Olyphant has seen better days.
WIN! Yes, He looks much more like TO than Johnny Depp. Good call!
And doesn’t the dark hair girl resemble a young Christina Ricci?
That’s an amazing mullet on the youngest girl.
I didn’t notice it until you pointed it out….if we could actually see the other girls hair, I would bet she has the same cut.
“Allergic to cheese!” that has GOT to be the best caption on AFP yet! WTG!
Exactly!!!!! Most awesome caption!
Not NEARLY as good as some of these comments!
I really want to, but I don’t get it.
They say CHEESE to the camera man to make it look like they are smiling. You know, “SAY: CHEESE!!!” Apparantly, they are allergic to cheese and are angry and depressed when the photog brings up cheese, and they are so upset they cannot enjoy the gooey-gooness of cheese they look like that.
Or it could be a reference to how this Debbie Downer family is “allergic” to smiling.
If I were mom, I’d be alittle bit afraid. lmbo
Wow, happy looking family, aren’t they….

Did they ever take photos of entire dead families, like this one???
Bahahahahahaha!!
It was called Memento Mori.
The Corleones tried to blend in to suburban life but once they had their portrait done, their mob ties became obvious….
….. creepy …… I can’t unsee it .. I might be sleeping with a nightlight tonight … *shudder*…
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
The hair if the girl next to Dad blends in with the dark background and makes it look like her head is floating.
They’re creepy and the’re cooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
The’re all together ooky,
The Adams family.
Unfortunately Cousin It wasn’t avialable for the photograph.
The man looks like Johnny Depp and the girl next to him looks like Christina Ricci.. Creepy
Creepy!
Was totally thinking either Addams family or Ansel Adams.
How about “The Ansel Addams Family?”
Love it!!
SWEET WN!
da na na na *snap snap* da na na na *snap snap* da na na na, da na na na, da na na na *snap snap*
They’re creepy and they’re kooky…
Mysterious and spooky…
They’re all together ooky……
The Awkward Fam-i-ly.
snap, snap.
This looks like an ad for Transylvanian Stool Softerners.
Ha!!
WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
American Gothic!
This picture was taken 20 years after they were already dead.
WIN!
HA!
Is the man Johnny Depp?
Johnny Depp or John Dillinger.
Now why did they have to take the picture in the dark? Vampires?
That was my question too.
Vampires don’t show up on film, Duh. And everyone knows vampires aren’t real. These people are obviously flesh eating, brain hungry zombies.
Creepy! And they paid for ‘em! LOL
This looks like a V.C. Andrews cover…just missing a creepy old grandmother in the background.
Thank you! I’m glad that I’m not the only one that had the thought. Truly creepy.
My first thought exactly!!
Omg V.C.Andrews! What a perfect name-drop. And completely on par with this photo. I giggled out loud reading the name V.C. Andrews!
Yes, Flowers in the Attic
A win!!
I wasn’t placing the “I’ve Seen This Before Vibe” until I read your comment! lol Now if we could just get one of our photoshop trolls to add Grandma’s creepy floating head!
Hahahahaha! *I’m scared…*
Yes! I was just thinking that myself. Good call.
That was the exact same thought I had!
I was thinking the same thing! Bwahahahahaha!
Scary.
Terrifying!
The girl standing next to dad looks like Wednesday Addams …
Exactly my thought!
Thats what I was going to say
