The Creepy Things You Do Without Realizing It, According To Your Zodiac Sign

Everyone’s got that one thing that makes them super creepy, according to astrology. If you look to your horoscope, your zodiac sign can give you insight into the kinds of creepy things you do — probably without even realizing it.

You might think you’re not a creepy person, but you are. You most definitely are. How do I know? Everyone is a little bit weird and strange.

No one is perfect (besides Beyoncé). So, there’s no reason for you to think that you’re an exception to the rule. Unless you really are Beyoncé.

But because it’s getting closer and closer to Halloween as we speak, it’s only fair to talk about all the weird things that we love about the season — and ourselves.

I fully believe that we should all be embracing our creepy sides. Even if they are a little off-putting to other people.

You can’t deny that there’s something weird about you. Whether it’s the type of movies you love to watch or how you act when you’re alone, you’re eerie in some kind of way.

The only thing that distinguishes one person from being creepy to a person others should stay away from or not date depends on the level of your dreadfulness.

For example, if you like keeping up with people from school and friends on social media, then you’re just a good friend who likes to keep in touch.

But if you take that way too far and constantly find yourself six months deep into your ex’s Instagram feed (when you’ve been broken up for more than two years), it’s time to reevaluate your life.

And yes, I’m talking to you Taurus. Just kidding, you’re not creepy enough to stay away from, but you really should tone it down on the Insta-stalking — I mean, c’mon.

via GIPHY

You know I’m a little bit right. But anyway.

Taurus isn’t the only zodiac sign on the hook for being creepy. In fact, ALL of the signs are creepy, in one way or another. And I don’t care if you want to keep your creepiest qualities a secret.

I’m gonna share all of the weirdest things about you right here — including my own sign, just so you don’t feel bad about yourself.

And in the spirit of Halloween, I suggest that after you read your creepy horoscope, you embrace your weird personality to the fullest … unless your creepy habit is going to get you in trouble or arrested (lookin’ at you again, Taurus). Why do you have to be so complicated?

Keep reading to find out what your creepiest quality or obsession is, according to astrology. You might just be surprised!

ARIES (Mar 21 - Apr 19)

aries creepiest zodiac signs

Aries has a serious issue with her temper and it’s only a matter of time before she completely loses her cool. She’s often impatient with others, which is why she has such a short temper, but she’s never acted on her feelings… yet.

This is why Aries is SO obsessed with gore and torture. Think of it this way: if Aries keeps to her creepy fascination with gore in the comfort of her own home, then she doesn’t end up going all Saw movie boxset on you.

Don’t let this trick you into believing that Aries is a violent person because she’s definitely not. She is, however, a firm believer in getting your frustration out in one way or another.

The only problem is that her way is pretty creepy. It’s one thing to like gory horror movies, but to go out of your way just to watch the goriest movies and even read about true crime stories that are all about torture victims? Now that’s just weird.

TAURUS (Apr 20 - May 20)

taurus creepiest zodiac signs

Taurus might try to play it off as something else if you ask her, but she is a straight up stalker. She already spends a lot of her free time on social media. She’s known to keep in touch with friends from years and years ago, too.

It might just seem like she’s interested in keeping up with you at first. Of course, not even your closest friends would go back months into your social media feed just to see what you’ve been up to, right? Right.

Taurus will say that she just cares about you and wants to be kept in the loop, but the truth is that she would watch your life like a movie, if she could. If you tell her you’re busy, chances are she’s on your Twitter feed looking for an explanation.

If you’ve broken up with her, she’ll casually bump into you at the grocery store and ask how your new girlfriend is doing … calling her by her FULL name. Do I need to continue with how creepy her behavior is? I didn’t think so.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)

gemini creepiest zodiac signs

While it’s true that Gemini is a compulsive liar, what’s creepy about it is her ability to STILL convince people she knows what she’s talking about, even when they know she’s lying.

She has this uncanny ability to persuade just about everyone, which is impressive, yes, but wildly creepy, too. You can almost guarantee that if someone mentions Gemini in something that already sounds sketchy, chances are she has something to do with it.

Gemini doesn’t use her persuasion powers for bad all the time, but she does know how easy it is for her to manipulate others. The only thing missing are the strings she’s using to control her puppets.

She’s an indecisive person to begin with, so persuading others to do things for her and lying about her intentions not only gets her out of making a mistake, it also proves just how creepy she can be when she puts her mind to it.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)

cancer creepiest zodiac signs

Cancer has some much love in her heart to give that sometimes, she doesn’t know what to do with it. And the next best thing to showering you in gifts and texting you emoji hearts all day is showing you just how far she’ll go to prove that she loves you. This sounds pretty harmless, right? Expect it’s definitely not.

Ever seen a horror movie about someone who kills everyone in someone else’s life because they don’t want to compete for that person’s affection? That’s Cancer… except as a PG version.

Cancer wouldn’t kill for your love – at least, I don’t think she would – but she does go above and beyond; to the point where her actions are borderline creepy all the time.

She’ll ask your mom what your favorite cookie is so she can surprise you with them at work, she’ll wait for you in your house with a home cooked meal (wait, how did she get a key?), and she’ll load up your phone with a music playlist because she figured out your password and that’s not creepy at all.

LEO (July 23 - Aug 22)

leo creepiest zodiac signs

The creepiest thing about Leo is definitely her narcissism. Sure, we all know she loves spending money on herself and she’s definitely her own best friend, but does anyone really know how far this self-love goes?

She’s the type of person to fill her house with mirrors so she can always keep an eye on herself and have more pictures of herself on social media and in her phone than friends and family.

Some people don’t find this as creepy as other types of behaviors, but narcissism can be a very dangerous thing if it goes too far. I mean, just read the story of Narcissus. But more than being so obsessed with yourself that you can’t function as a normal human being, narcissism can be fed by social media and the constant need for validation.

Leo is already always glued to her phone (and we all know how she can get when her posts don’t get enough likes on Instagram), so this creepy obsession with herself is something that should probably be closely monitored.

VIRGO (Aug 23 - Sep 22)

virgo creepiest zodiac signs

Virgo is a very analytical person in her everyday life, but when it comes to her private life, she tends to go a little crazy. And when I say private life, I mean so private that the only people who know about her behavior when she’s alone is her and the government (because they definitely watch our every move online).

Why is the government so important in this situation? Because the creepiest thing about Virgo is her Internet history.

Virgo loves looking at weird, creepy stuff on the Internet because it’s private — to an extent (think: ask a friend or Google it?) — and because it still feeds to the part of her that loves to research new things.

The only thing is that if she’s ever caught up in a bad situation, she’s going to have to have an airtight explanation for why her Internet history looks the way it does … Otherwise, she’s going to be in a lot of trouble all because she was curious. Luckily for her, she hasn’t had the guts to check out the Dark Web yet, which is probably a good thing, knowing her.

LIBRA (Sept 23 - Oct 22)

libra creepiest zodiac signs

Libra’s creepiest quality is actually more like a very intense love-hate relationship … with celebrities. She admires the confidence and gracefulness that she sees in her favorite celebs.

She constantly tries to incorporate that into her own personality, even if it makes her look fake to the people who already know her. Sometimes, Libra wishes she were more like someone else to the point where she’ll change her look and her attitude so that she feels more like that person.

This isn’t even the worst of it, though. Libra can also be self-pitying, which means at the back of her mind she knows she’ll never be anyone but Libra (a truth she doesn’t want to face). This is where the “hate” part of her creepy obsession with celebrities start.

She might never act on it, but when she realizes that she’ll never be the celeb she once admired so much to the point of obsession, she starts hating them with such a passion that you worry she’s going to turn into a mix between the movies Bling Ring and Carrie.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21)

scorpio creepiest zodiac signs

Everyone knows that sex and Scorpio go together like peanut butter and jelly, but does anyone know that if Scorpio doesn’t limit herself with sex, things can get ugly? And that’s not just limited to person-to-person contact, either.

One of the creepiest things about Scorpio isn’t just her obsession with porn; it’s the type of adult films she’s into. Like, stuff that she wouldn’t even be proud to own up to if asked about by her best friend.

Of course, she’s always careful to erase her browser history when she’s done exploring, but it’s still totally weird what she’s into. I’m talking any kind of stuff that involves gross body parts, weird costumes and role-playing, and even animated films.

Hey, some people like those things, but when you find out that’s the only type of adult film she’s into, you can’t deny that it’s pretty creepy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 - Dec 19)

sagittarius creepiest zodiac signs

Sagittarius’ weird thing isn’t necessarily as creepy as it is bizarre. Anyone who knows Sagittarius knows that she plays by her own rules and doesn’t like adhering to anyone’s schedule but her own.

Of course, she doesn’t really like adhering to her own schedule, so it’s not uncommon for her to flake out on her friends. Yet, even though people expect her to do exactly that (flake out on them), she’s still able to get away with it time after time,

Of course, telling her friends that she’s going to be there for dinner and then not showing up is one thing. But Sagittarius’ behavior takes “bizarre” to a whole other level.

What makes it so weird is that she is able to get away with having absolutely no responsibility or consequences for her actions. She can total her BFF’s car or skip town and disappear for months, only to turn up later and shrug it off, and she somehow NEVER gets called out for it.

Because that’s Sagittarius? No one’s sure, but it’s almost as if she has some spell over the people in her life that frees her from all accountability. Way creepy.

CAPRICORN (Dec 20 - Jan 19)

capricorn creepiest zodiac signs

Capricorn has such amazing self-control that it only makes sense that her imagination would be a little messed up and a LOT creepy.

She knows that she has to be disciplined and not let the little things bring her down (even though this discipline can turn her a little controlling), so she acts out situations the way she wishes they happened in her head.

I guess now wouldn’t be the best time to tell you that her obsession is with death and murder, huh?

While Capricorn would get in sooooo much trouble if she murdered someone, there’s nothing wrong with reading about murder and watching horror movies depicting it; it’s actually how she relaxes.

Meditation and calming words have never helped her, so pretending that Freddy and Jason are going after someone who pissed her off makes it easier to be grown up about when she has to confront someone later about what happened.

Yes, I know it’s super creepy to look at it that way, but it does make sense.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 - Feb 18)

aquarius creepiest zodiac signs

Aquarius’ creepiest quality is her obsession with the paranormal and supernatural. Yes, we all know that she believes in aliens and that she’s not kidding when she says she saw Bigfoot at Coachella last year, but it still feels like a joke.

It’s only when she goes on a conspiracy theory documentary binge courtesy of Netflix that you wonder if she’s even all there.

What makes this obsession even creepier is that it’s not just an addiction she has, like some people are addicted to comic books. It’s that she can get so far removed from reality that she starts acting like an alien herself.

And when you get too far down that rabbit hole, reality starts playing serious tricks on you. And Aquarius isn’t going to be the first to admit she has a problem (or addiction) … EVER. So when her creepy behavior starts to surface again, it’s probably best to stay far away from her.

PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20)

pisces creepiest zodiac signs

When Pisces has her head in the clouds, it’s usually all unicorns and rainbows. But that doesn’t mean that her imagination is rated E for everyone. In fact, her imagination is the one place where she can be herself without judgment.

And when she’s left alone with the thoughts in her head, she paints a pretty creepy picture. You might not ever hear her talk about her imagination, but just know that it can get really dark.

Pisces’ imagination ranges from creepy movie scenes she’s watched to wondering what it would be like to set her apartment on fire and run away. Her imagination has always been vivid, so just be thankful that she never acts on these things.

Because I can assure you that she’s been imagining some creepy stuff for a while now and if she ever did decide to go through with it, she knows exactly what to do to NOT get caught.
