People are getting spooked by an eerily accurate optical illusion that claims to determine your greatest personality trait - all by what you spot first.

Optical illusions are a great way to sharpen your eyes and brain, but also a great way to delve deeper into your mind and reveal some hidden truths. By tricking us into seeing things with the use of colour, light and patterns to generate illusions, we can find out more about how our minds work.

The spooky photo, shared by US website YourTango, shows a black and white Halloween-themed illustration, made up of three images - a young girl, a skull and an eerie woodland.

However, the meaning behind it is much deeper than a simple child-like illustration. If you spot the little girl first - this means your greatest strength is optimism. You find it easy to confront issues and it's in your nature to thrive in situations that other people may feel unsettled by.

You can overcome obstacles with ease and you don't crack under pressure showing signs of resilience and youthful perspectives. However, if your first sighting was something more sinister and you spotted a skull don't panic - as it's not as bad as you may think.

The connotations that a skull conjures up may be negative at first glance, but it's believed that in this image, it actually shows your intellectual abilities. The power of your mind means you can handle almost everything and are determined. Another of your greatest strengths is your ability to think deeply and considerately.

Finally, if the scenery is what you noticed first, this means you thrive in panic, and you are confident in your judgements. You can rely on your gut and make the most appropriate decisions based on those gut feelings.

If you enjoyed this optical illusion, why not check out this one too? It can determine if you are 'strong-willed and stubborn' or 'caring and likeable'. The image depicts both a set of forks and a wine glass, and similar to the previous optical illusion it's said that what you see first offers a telling sign about your personality.
