It’s not uncommon to see musical icons up in the sky. Back in April, people thought they saw Morrissey in the clouds, and now, there’s buzz that the Misfits‘ infamous Crimson Ghost has appeared in satellite images of Hurricane Matthew.
And, for whatever reason, it’s giving us the side-eye. Though that’s probably because we all lost our shit over Glenn Danzig, Jerry Only, and Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein all sharing the stage together for however many years it was at Riot Fest last month.
As the first Category 5 Atlantic hurricane since Felix in 2007, Hurricane Matthew is currently weaving a destructive path of havoc across the Caribbean, and as it makes its way north towards the United States, the skull has appeared.
From ABC News: “A NASA satellite image of the powerful storm looks a lot like a smiling human skull. The ‘sinister’ image was captured by Weather Channel meteorologist Stu Ostro as Matthew hit Haiti on Tuesday morning. Ostro claimed the image came from NASA and was ‘un-doctored,’ in his post to Twitter that has since gone viral.”
Snopes has even confirmed the image.
From this, of course, we can only determine that even Mother Nature wants the Misfits to continue their recent and unlikely reunion. And that Danzig is probably pissed NASA took the Ghost’s photo.
