BTA: The Unintentional Shining Reproduction
December 27th, 2011
“We were touring our new house while it was under construction in 1989. I was 4. My parents were taking pictures of various rooms and I was wandering. Then this happened in a hallway.”

Horror movie moment anyone?
This pic gave my husband the willies. Planning on keeping it bookmarked. Pretty sure that if I show it to him again, and whisper “Redrum,” he’ll do anything I ask!
Thanks AFP!
Some film director who is making a horror film will see this and make it into a movie poster. I just know it.
Ha ha, the caption would have improved tenfold if it had said: ““We were touring our new house while it was under construction in 1989. I was 4, AND STAYING AT MY AUNTIES. My parents were taking pictures of various rooms and I was wandering. Then this happened in a hallway.”
I really like the blood stains in the carpet; nice touch.
Don’t think those are blood stains. I think it’s oriented strandboard.
Danny isn’t here, Mrs. Torrance. :::shudder:::
If only there’d been two of you…
Kind of reminds me of the photo I took in a hotel hallway in upstate New York, sans scary children. The whole hotel reminded me of the Overlook.
This photo is eerie. I love it!
I saw this photo and immediately said to myself “redrum redrum”. Then I read the caption. Its perfect and awkward worthy.
Scariest.movie.EVAH!
Did they get a Big Wheel?
lol…and the ominous bouncing red ball!
This is definitely creepy…but not sure how this fits as an ‘awkward’ family photo?
It’s awkward BECAUSE it’s creepy. Family photos should not be this disturbing.
that doesn’t make sense—what happened? your parents took a picture of you bring unhappy in the hallway?
It may be impossible to pick up for a real literal, left-brained person. Use your awkward vibe receptors.
It makes perfect sense if you read the caption: The unintentional Shining reproduction happened.
This photo should definitely be in the next AFP book. You are creeping me out.
If only it was video, then we could have seen the door at the end of the hall open up and a river of blood flow down the hallway.
Why the long face?
That is creepy. Very creepy.
What am I missing here? I do not understand what happened in the hallway. Can someone help me out here??
Reference to a scary movie “the shining” where a ghost child, creepily comes up a hallway lit up like that in the photo, very creepy scene!
You should watch The Shining, that´ll clear things up.
Check out the 1980s horror movie “The Shining”, as alluded to in the title.
The Shining was made in the late ’70s.
the photo happened. she looks creepy in it.
Movie version of Stephen King’s The Shining has this scene only with twins.
looks just like a picture from “the shining” by Stephen King…very scary!!
It looks like a scene from a horror movie. The long blank hallway, the soft glow of light behind the angel-faced devil child.
lol your missing the movie “the shining” is what your missing
Nothing literal happened in the hallway. The awkwardness comes from the fact that they tried to take a simple picture of their little girl, and what they got was a perfect horror-movie type shot — shining light from behind, ominous child, all white, slightly blurred… like blood is about to start dripping from that attic door.
Redrum…redrum
Ha ha! My thoughts exactly, and it was before I even noticed the title of the picture!
New house? want happened to the carpet then? yikes
Theres no carpet down yet, it’s the knots in the wood, on the floor!
Blood is hard to get out of carpet.
Yikes, that’s creepy.
Come and play with me Danny. Spooky.
Danny isn’t here, Mrs. Torrance.
HAHA!
AWK-WEIRD!!!! no offense Austin
