Sunday Simulacra - Version 6.4

Prolific Simulacra Hunter and skull creator, Tom Adams, has added two more to our collection.

He wrote: “You know its going to be a great night when your day ends with this beautiful skullset. The whole family noticed this one while driving home from dinner out.” 

Next he said: “I haven't checked in in a while so when I saw this the other morning I had to stop and get a picture of it.”

Frequent C says:

Anyone is welcomed to participate, it's fun and it's easy- if you see a simulacra skull, photograph it and send those pictures in to our submissions address with a little something about what it is really and maybe a little about you.

Sunday Simulacra - Version 4.10

It's Sunday again, skull lovers, and that means it's time to display the hidden skull treasures that our readers have managed to capture.

Fiona found this evil looking moth in her back yard in Saluda, Va. She's, "Not sure if it's an actual Death's Head Moth, but it's definitely got some 'skull and crossbones' action going on."



M@ was sharing a tender moment when this spooky skull made an appearance.



Lora Ditko "spotted this skull turret at the Great Lakes Medieval Faire."



Thanks for sharing these. It seems to be getting harder to catch these sneaky little skulls these days. If you find one lurking about then submit it to us so we can proudly display your prize as well.

Sunday Simulacra - Version 4.7

It's Sunday again and our avid skull hunters are still on the prowl and catching us some great simulacrum.

Enrique Camacho did a stellar job snagging this pic. "Attached is an interesting picture of a butterfly/moth(?) I took while visiting the community garden in the Potrero Hill neighborhood of San Francisco, CA."


Daniel made his discovery during a family moment. "My little sister was playing with some water, making designs on her shirt. As soon as she showed me this one, I noticed how it resembled a skull. Skull-A-Day instantly popped into my mind."


Wendy Ott captured this pic of a wooden skull. "I took this on a dock. Cool huh?"



It looks like the skull hunters have returned from another successful hunt. Don't forget to look for those hidden skulls all around us and submit them. Be sure to get them....before they GET YOU!

Sunday Simulacra - Version 3.8

Today's round of simulacrum comes via the insect world. There are many bugs out there that can resemble skulls and some of our readers are here to help out:

Dwayne Carpenter from Richmond, Va. found this creepy looking fellow


David Jaskiewicz from Perth, Western Australia overcomes fear to bring us this moth. He tells us, "Here is a photo I took a couple of years ago from the inside of my kitchen window. Just letting you know I have an unexplainable phobia of moths (however - totally love skulls), so I had to work up the courage to photograph this moth, which appears to have little skulls on the underside of its wings. Thought you might like it.


Long time viewer and first time submitter Jax Easton found what was most certainly a bug at some point. "This is a splotch of bird poo on a park bench outside the Kelvingrove art gallery in Glasgow...It hasn't been modified at all, and was taken by me."


Plus, a bonus this week from Colin Greenleaf to help remind us about the current contest. "This natural coral rock was found on the beach of the Big Island of Hawaii off the Kohala Coast. The black lava rock called A'a (ah-ah) made this white treasure stand out clearly. As soon as I saw this piece of skull booty, we knew it needed to be found on your website. My wife and I are huge fans. Keep up the good work!" Colin took Skull-A-Day with him on his vacation to Hawaii. Thanks, but next time Noah, Citizen, and myself would prefer actual plane tickets. Just kidding. Thanks for sharing everyone!


If anyone knows what type of bugs these are then feel free to leave a note in the comments. Thanks.
