wtf.help please

I deleted some pictures that I previously downloaded a while ago. Last night they randomly apprleared again in my gallery. How is this even possible. I have a galaxy s4 that is a little more then a year old. HELP.

Deleting isn't really deleting...it's just telling the phone that that storage space can be overwritten. Try a Soft Reset, and clearing the Cached Data.

Thank you! Why would the phone randomly do this?

I'm sorry, I don't know. I don't find smartphones easy to understand, but trying to understand them and to fix problems when they occur is part of the enjoyment!
