WHAT IS PAREIDOLIA?
It's not unusual to see faces in everyday objects.
Pareidolia is a psychological phenomenon when you see patterns in random stimulus.
This can lead to people spotting human-like characteristics in objects or shapes.
The name comes from the Greek words para, meaning something faulty or wrong, and the noun eidōlon, meaning shape or image.
