You’ll find only nightmare fuel in #Museum101.

It stands to reason that most museums around the world probably have at least one or two things on display that are insanely creepy, whether we’re talking about a cat with three heads or a clown statue that seems to have been crafted within the gates of Hell itself. Museums are old. They’re musty. They’re creepy. But what is the absolutely creepiest those creepy museums have to offer?

Harnessing the power of the internet to bring all the world’s creepiest relics together, someone launched the hashtag game #Museum101 this week, and the mission was simple: they encouraged every museum on social media to tweet a picture of their most unsettling possession. And lucky for us, many museum owners from around the globe excitedly got in on the fun.

Here’s some of the creepiest stuff we found using #Museum101.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
