Places for fearful things to hide under

You fear the scarecrow is like Harold and will turn you into a skin suit.

For me corn fields are really comforting but that's why I like the idea of them being scary. Good horror takes things people find innocent and comforting like children and dolls, and makes them scary

I don't think they're unnerving at all - I love crop fields! All of that food, just waiting to be grabbed up by whoever has a container!

That said, opening up ears of fresh corn only to find pic related under the leaves has made it so that the act of harvesting is somewhat of a jimmy rustler.

Because retards tend to find a lot of things scary.

Children are not comforting.

The risk of being sprayed with cancerogenous roundup from a low flying crop duster.

I personally find these of any kind scary, there's just something about it.

They're common in horror/thriller movie chase scenes, so just by this association they're unnerving. A huge swath of land to run through with zero chance of finding help. You can't hide anywhere. All you can do is run until whatever is chasing you catches up. If the stalks are tall, then there's the added scare factor of your pursuer popping up in front of you unexpectedly. Similar to hedge mazes. Those are scary for the same reasons.
Plus, fucking scarecrows.

It's and endless sea of crops with the horizon offset only by a humanoid stuffed doll that's effectively keeping all of the other organisms that could be anywhere around there away.

As noble as wind turbines are in purpose I can't help but think they are hiding something.

They can be quite comforting, anon. Try seeing them as a symbol of rebirth.

Your autism is showing. You should probably hide it.

For some reason, they remind me of the tripods from "The War of the Worlds".

Now that's just rude.

>>17537400
I used to hang these all over the country, even did the ones close to Guymon(sp?) Oklahoma where the Texas, and Oklahoma panhandles meet.

In the Midwest we also put most of them up in cornfields incidentally.
