This picture creeps me out more than it should for several reasons, many stated by others:
- It's an outline of a fist. Probably someone with a pencil got bored and traced their hand on the wall, then got creative.
- The perspective is "off". It's hard to tell what angle this is or what composes the "body". Is it laying down? Are we looking at it from above?
- The expression. It's taken something normally cute and happy and made it a little TOO MUCH so. Like the Cheshire Cat's grin, it looks "wrong"... not as in incorrect, but as in so close to normal- but not QUITE.

Creepy. I approve!
