Known as the Crooked Forest, this pine grove located outside Gryfino, West Pomerania, Poland is regarded as one of the most unusual forests in the world. The nearly 400 trees are widely agreed to have been shaped by human hands sometime in the 1930s, but for what purposes is still up for debate. Each tree is bent near the base at 90 degrees, a form that could possibly be helpful in boat or furniture making, which is one of the most popular guessing for the existence of this grove. However, no matter what reason it is, the forest makes for an ominous spectacle and thanks to photographer Kilian Schönberger who captured its spooky glory and presented to us.
