Dagobahn Eagle Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 It pauses itself to make you lose, it talks to you while you play, and it does some other weird things. Your cat is terrified of it, and your girlfriend convinces you to sell it on E-Bay. Behold: The haunted Nintendo "Entertainment" System that supposedly belonged to a passed-away boy (how utterly respectful to dead people to degrade them into ghost stories... If my best friend died and someone started a rumour that she was haunting the [insert room or place here], I'd beat the guy up). As for this console, I say scam, and a successful one at that: The highest bidder got the NES for a good-looking, fine-smelling $200+, enough for a cursed PlayStation and poltergeist X-Box, evil memory cards included. For the record, I do actually believe in ghosts. But a haunted NES? Fat chance. Why would a ghost, even if it is the ghost of a boy who loves video games, haunt an NES anyway? For more info, read the first post of this thread: Link. And here's the URL of the NES on E-Bay: Link. It's a nice, spooky, chilly story. Unbelievable, but chilly. PS: Can anyone point me to other haunted E-Bay items? There are the haunted teeth, but other than that I don't know of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jed Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 I call bull****. If I wanted to haunt something, I would not haunt an NES. I'd haunt my copy of Half Life ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tags Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 yeah, big bull**** there. but I wonder why people still pay so much for it? Do they believe or are they just dumb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagobahn Eagle Posted March 20, 2005 Author Share Posted March 20, 2005 I don't know about paying $200 for a console, but I'd bet you $200 that it mysteriously lost any and all supernatural attributes once it got sold:D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alegis Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 clearly that elmo doll aint haunted, it's only 3 bucks. If it really was haunted one would charge 300$ It's called stealing from the dumb. What else would they do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagobahn Eagle Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 I saw the doll, too. Clear logic hole in that story: If that woman committed suicide, how on Earth do we know what she saw in that closet?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurgan Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Cool and sad at the same time. On the other hand, you could argue that if it was REALLY haunted, that you'd have to cut the price down, because nobody would WANT it. Then again, the James Randi's (though he's got bigger fish to fry) and Spook Sleuths of the world and the curious you'd think would really want to check stuff like this out and run some tests on it. So it could go either way. What will they think of next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Sitherino Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Oh man, I remembered about the Jesus doughnuts from a year or so back. Anyone remember that? It was a box of donuts that had little "jesus" figures punched in the donut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeskywalker1 Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 *** PLEASE NOTICE *** Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee what you will or will not experience with the System. Obviously, if this is what myself, as well as others believe it to be, the supernatural is something completely beyond my control. Do not bid if you do not acknowledge and agree with this. We welcome your questions and we will answer them to the best of our ability. That really is sad. Most people just got it because it was a NES. Good times.. I guess, I never had one, lol.

El Sitherino Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 If someone actually believes it, they deserve to pay for it. But no, it's not illegal. Because technically we can't disprove that it's haunted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
