  An overview of recent searches for exotic signatures using the ATLAS detector
at the LHC is given. The results presented use data collected at center-of-mass
energies of $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV and $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV, for datasets
corresponding to a variety of integrated luminosities. Resonance searches using
leptons, photons, missing transverse energy, and jets are performed, as well as
searches requiring custom jet and track reconstruction. No deviations from
Standard Model expectations are observed.
