Except from saying how much he loves our blog, David T. sent us this interesting illusion (well, “hunt and seek“) poster from the tv show called “The Fringe”. Apparently FOX states it’s not just a poster, it’s something more like a real treasure hunt! This “Fringe” billboard for second season of the series contains hidden objects from the show’s past and future mythology. All in all – 16 altogether. The use of the hole adds a strong element of mystery. I’ve heard one amateur critic described this poster as “a Photoshop disaster.” But on the marketing side, any ad that keeps you staring at it while giving you reasons to watch the show is well done. When we finish spotting all the 16 hidden mysteries in this one, you can try and solve previous Fringe poster. FOX says there’s actually a hidden word in last year’s “Fringe” poster (located here) that nobody has ever noticed, which hints at a plot element not revealed until later in the season. Not easy to find. If somebody finds the correct word, please comment. I’d like to start this game with revealing what I’ve found in the below poster – just above the words “New Cases” there is a face that appears to be screaming… please no more than 2 answers per comment.
It's not just a poster, it's a treasure hunt!

As for the word in last years poster I see a couple spots the may indicate a letter, but I think it is just here hair.
I played with the levels in photoshop trying to get something to pop up but I didn’t have much luck. Maybe, someone else can play with it in photoshop and have better luck.
Also I’m sorry but I MUST make this comment since I just noticed something now. Over Peter’s left shoulder (the young man) you’ll see the OBSERVER. Fans of the show will understand my excitement and sympathize with me. Sorry for the double post by the way.
Sorry for the double-post, but I’ve just noticed that there are also some carvings on the lowest branch of the tree on the RHS.
and the branches at the top on the LHS look like a spider’s web.
I’ve never seen Fringe before so I have no idea what any of these hidden symbols mean in relation to the storyline :P
Josh nice finds. The RHS tree branch has a frog on it (Fringe material) and while I couldn’t find the spider web you spoke of you pointed me into the direction of the half cut apple(also a Fringe symbol) on the bottom of the branch that is on the F in Fringe.
answer to last year’s fringe poster: http://www.fringebloggers.com/easteregg-olivia-dunham-is-being-observed/
On the leaf by her left leg you can see the outline of a kite
There’s a face on the right side of the poster just above where the branch that crosses the ‘E’ leaves the frame
There is the shape of a head and torso in the grass just at the edge of the hole.
i see a snake coming out of the hole to the right under the red leaf? i see other things as well that other comments include.
i see a face on the right side trees probably close to being parellel with the girls neck maybe a bit under and its kind of a small head
I have noticed that there is orange light’s above the ‘N’ and ‘G’ in similar orientation to the first series poster. I don’t know if that has anything to do with series or not, cause I have never heard of this series before.
There’s a leaf with a triangle in it… (her left leg)
There is a star fish on the bottom right “CAUTION” ribbon.
You can see the six fingered hand glyph on the left bottom of the original poster. In this version it’s cut.
On the previous poster i’m sure the hair just above the word fringe spells theifs, it’s pretty hazy though
Last years poster has FRINGE written her hair
face in the clouds, butterfly in the sky, hieroglyphics on the branch, an object in the sky just under the R, what looks like a bird with no head above the I, an observer, a white flower, a rabbit and a card oh and a claw mark
Is fringe on in the uk?
One alot of people are missing is the face in the right hand side in the gap between the tree leaves, 2/3 up from the bottom.
I see 2 men and a woman, there are some trees with leaves and big letters that say ”FRINGE”.
I know!, Its a skull!: lady’s pants form the nose, the two guys are the eyes and the hole looks like theet… the sky is the head… is that the answer?
Has anyone else noticed the faces in the leaves on the tree overlapping the “e” . They all are devil like in nature.
oh this one creeped me when i saw it… the guy that is knealing down, there is a guy near hes shoulder… in the background… i also see a…ummm i guess maybe the sidewalk is one.. like yer i dunno (:!!OMG THE FLOATING LEAF IS ONE!! THE ONE NEAR THE GIRLS RIGHT LEG!! i no this because on the blu ray dvd cover it has the exact same leaf on it… as well as the sea horse and the frog… happy blogging
there is also a six fingerede hand print on the side wlk i new there was somthing about that!
If you look to the right of the “E” in the word FRINGE the middle cross of the letter points directly to a leaf with a cross on it.
ok u said somthing about a word being hidden in the previous poster and i have found it for you…. one strand of her hairs has been formed to looked like the word… “observed” not convinced heres a link…http://www.fringebloggers.com/easteregg-olivia-dunham-is-being-observed/
There is a frog on the tree on the right hand on the branch next to Walters head.
Jim: (Or anyone). Where’s the Observer?
i see something written, “VEY NO” if that means anything?
It kinda looks like there is a pair of hands playing on the yellow orb above the “G”.
does anyone notice how the lady’s light looks like she’s holding a dagger and the point of it is the end of the her light. or he zipper line could be a sword of some sort again with her holding the hadle of the blade/flashlight.
and on the beige guys ovecoat. where the buttons should attach it looks like the at&t logo. ive never seen the show but perhaps at&t helps fund it…. it most def looks like half the logo on his coat.
There’s some dude behind the man on the ground on his left
There is a picture on a leaf in the bottom left and a rabbit in the bush on left and a flower between the rabbit and picture. I know these are the obvious ones…
This isn’t the complete photo. In the bottom right corner below the hole is a 6 fingered hand print. There is also the word “fire” in the trees to the right hand side of Walter’s head and up a little bit.
Above the word new cases, there is mist that looks like a face guys!
no one has ssaid anything bout the baby in the grass below her feet
There is a card on the left side of the sidewalk.
Check out Walter’s finger placement on the cup he’s holding. I think that may be a nod to Leonard Nimoy…
i can’t believe nobody has seen the screaming face yet.

copy-paste the link. i circled the face in red.
ubove the F in fringe there is a screaming face of a woman
Above the leaves on the orb above the G is a leaf that looks like a butterfly.
Anyone see the seahorse?
It’s on Olivia’s zipper :)
The twigs on the F seem to say hj and possibly R
The rabbit also looks a bit like a part buried skull.
The leaf on her leg has a triangle on it.
the cut apple is really tiny: start from the top of olivia hand and go straight left – you can see it hanging in the tree on a twig.
okay,this is so weird! I see three fingers engraved in the cement; kinda lke when someone gets dragged from someone and their fingernails leave 5 long lines….it is by the lower caution sign
above possibilities….there is a butter fly made out of leaves
This images provides all the anwsers:

for the first poster, a clue is looking at all the bubbles, some resemble letters, find all the letters and arrange them
heyy theres a playing card under teh leaf below bishop jr.
Idk about anyone else but it looks to me that there is a zombie like figure formed by the branches on the bushes on the left side
Sorry about last mistake, i ment the tree branches
Not sure if these have been mentioned – probs have. a rabbit in the bottom left corner as well as a playing card in the bottom left corner.
I see so much in this! I see a face to the write of the “e”
The man kneeling down, theres a guy behind his right shoulder. The bunny, the playing card.
The girls, zipper is in a weird shape on the jacket. Theres a daisy. The left next to the girl floating there, has a triangle on it. The beautiful, and if you look to the right of the man drinking the slushie, you can see a frog carved into the tree
above the f in fringe there is a faint face above it in the scream position look about a few cm around
Hey does anyone notice the what looks like a picture in the leaves on the bottom left corner or is it just me?
There is a six hand fingerprint on the other side of the hole
there is a piece of newspaper covered in leaves next to the hole
Woah!!! it creeped me out!!! the face at the top of the word “NEW CASES” creeps me OUT!!!

http://blocs.lamalla.cat/media/assets//1534/FringeS2PosterCluesFull.jpg
There are butterflies near the scraming face of the lady.
I looked at last years poster and found the word “Bleed” above the word Fringe.
theres a family photo on the left side of the hole in leaves!
i see a rabbit in the left bottom bushes
the guy on the right is sucking a brain out of a cup
the clouds in the background look like wings for the girl
I see a rabbit, a white daisy, a boy behind the guys shoulder and a butterfly.
Apart from what has already been said, i see a black and white photograph in the lower left corner, a butterfly above the word “impossibilities”, a person in a suit behind the guy sitting and three small yellow lights (which i dont find very suspicious tho)
I saw in the top left corner i saw like a pirate or something
i see wat all u guys see!!
lol!!
but i dont get the point?!
if you look in the cloud’s just above “new cases” there appears to be the outline of a screaming face.
its the most obvious lol but not tryna b rude !
oh and also just above the man behind that crouching guys shoulder there is an airplane. looks like it might be crashing into one of those buildings?
omg! i see a picture by the hole :o
multiple ppl say they see a picture in the bottom right corner by the whole but to me it looks like a king or queen or jack of hearts
