There’s more to this creepy image than meets the eye.

A “creepy” real-life optical illusion on an airplane is giving social media users flightmares with many comparing the mind-boggling image to “ET,” per an X post with over 25.6 million views.

“I ALMOST LANDED THIS PLANE MYSELF,” declared the person who posted the trippy pic, which was snapped during an unspecified flight.

The spine-tingling pic shows what looks like a mustachioed passenger in a black hoodie ogling the camera person with one giant googly eye as the drink cart passes.

The bone-chilling visage had X users flipping out.

“WTF is an alien doing on there,” declared one shaken viewer, while another wrote, “WTf is thatttt.”

“I woulda jumped out,” declared a third.

Meanwhile, the original poster analogized the foreboding figure to the alien from “ET” hiding “under the blanket.”

Several social media comedians quipped that the so-called sky-clops was the “not real” passenger that internet star Tiffany Gomas was yelling about during her viral airplane meltdown in 2023.

As some astute X users pointed out, the dark passenger was not an extra-terrestrial stowaway, but rather someone with their hoodie on backward.

Their so-called oversized iris is actually a headphone in their ear.

“That’s a person with their hoodie on backwards over their face and the black thing that looks like an eyeball is a headphone,” one user clarified.

They elaborated, “So it looks like they are staring at you creepily but that’s really just the side of their head with a headphone in the ear while the hoodie covers the face.”

“That’s an earbud in someone’s ear lol, looks creepy at first though,” seconded another.
