The Dark Lord rises? Ellen Pompeo posted a rare family photo taken on Halloween this past Saturday, Oct. 31, but the cute snap was photobombed by something (possibly) wicked.
“This is a private family photo that I decided to share because of what appeared in the image…” the Grey’s Anatomy actress, 45, wrote, alongside a pic of herself in a costume with her husband, Chris Ivery, and their eldest daughter, Stella Luna.
The family, all matching in spooky ensembles, pose together in the photo — but what’s seen in the upper left corner of the pic is slightly more sinister. In the shadows of the snapshot, a face with dark eyes and rotting teeth looms over the family and background.
That face was NOT put there by us or the person who took the photo

Another fan posted a horrifying blurry snap of what looked like a hand patting the head of a woman.

Pompeo joked that the face resembled horror movie villain Michael Myers.
@CammiBomb it looks exactly like Micheal Meyers
