A Canadian man recently became trending after his bizarre experience at his home in Ontario. The person gained the attention of social media after he published a set of images that contained sinister-looking entities standing just outside his property.
The figures, later identified as large ice shards, bear stunning appearances similar to the grim reaper and the Christian crucifix.
Lake Eerie's Ominous Figures
Ben Tucci, a 65-year-old Ontario resident, was responsible for taking photographs of the haunting sculptures. The tall figures captured in the images appeared in Lake Eerie just outside his lakehouse in Dunnville.
Upon seeing the mysterious figures, Tucci immediately felt fear, suspecting that the standing bodies outside by the lake are supernatural beings.
All of the figures that Tucci photographed seemingly wear floor-length white cloaks that add spine-chilling effects to anyone who sees it.
From a perspective, one figure appeared to be either a spiritual angel or archangel with wings spread from its back part, reports The Sun.
As Tucci got closer, the figure's appearance resembled more of the Christian crucifix.

The vision Tucci experienced was dubbed by his social media followers as "the stuff of nightmares." Among the most noticeable figures that one can observe from the sculptures is the fictional grim reaper.
Tucci explained that awe was among the mixed emotions that hit him upon discovering the figures. The lakeside resident could not believe his eyes when he first saw the ominous bodies outside his premises.
At first glance, one of the sculptures, which was supposed to be a grim reaper, was initially associated by Tucci with the figures of "Jack Frost, Old Man Winter, and Father Christmas."
Alongside the grim reaper was another figure not far from it. This sculpture, according to Tucci, looked like an old sea woman that posed as if it rejected and walked away from the reaper.

Icy Lakeside Lamp Post as Cloaked Individuals
Despite his creative imagination, Tucci believed that there was a scientific explanation that could answer the mysterious formations standing outside his house.
A figure much nearer to his neighbor's property was a lamp post splashed with lake water, which allowed the residue to form large icicle structures, resulting in an alarming cloaked figure.
In a terrifying twist, Tucci's daughter said that the figures are not just frozen lake waters but spirit-like individuals who visit her when she dreams.
Tucci confirmed that her youngest daughter did bring up subjects from her dreams in the past. The constant nightmares manifest when the kid sleeps in a bedroom nearer to the lakeside, reports Mirror.
When Tucci presented the images to his daughter, the kid was surprised and scared at the same time. Fortunately, the daughter did not experience trouble while sleeping after the family moved to a new home.
Ice formations in lamp posts and other outside objects in extreme freezing weather are normal. They occur due to the presence of water that eventually freezes due to the environment's temperatures that scale below zero degrees Celsius.
