BRIDGEND, WALES: Mom-of-three Hayleigh Williams, 34, shared a snap of her log burner on Facebook, only to have it pointed out to her that 'Adolf Hitler's face' was staring out of the fire.

After putting her kids to bed, Hayleigh decided to take a quick photo of her TV and log burner to post on Facebook while she relaxed. After the photo was posted, an eagle-eyed cousin of hers, was quick to notice that the infamous Nazi dictator's face appeared to be among the flames. Hayleigh was startled to see that, indeed, the 'face of Adolf Hitler' was staring back at her from the lit fireplace.

Hayleigh was shocked to see a head, eyes, nose, "a very prominent chin" and even a moustache that were all perfectly formed. Since posting the photo to social media on Wednesday, October 5, without making any reference to the ruthless tyrant, other people have also noted the startling resemblance.

The trainee accountant says she'll be watching for other well-known faces in the flames after the warmonger's face showed up in her fireplace.

Hayleigh, who is married to 37-year-old HGV mechanic David Williams, said, "I took a picture to share on Facebook just one of those 'I'm just finally chilling' moments."

"It actually looks like there's a moustache on there and everything and, it has no reason why it would be there based on the layout of the log, it's really weird," said Hayleigh. "Straight away I said 'it looks like Hitler', I was really surprised by it."

Since sharing the spooky snap on social media on Wednesday, Hayleigh's post has racked up more than 100 likes and comments, with many saying they could see the same creepy face. 

"It was my cousin that commented and said 'there's a face in the picture'. I looked and I was like 'Oh my God! There actually is'," she said.
Hayleigh added, "I'll be keeping an eye on the flames, I'll always be watching to see what's going on in there."

The couple has now moved out of their home for reasons unrelated to the fiery discovery, but they still intend to install a log burner in their new home within a few weeks.
