Black Eyed Kids / haunted painting on Ebay

[Socci]

I found a story by a US journalist about some strange children he came across one day who had completely black eyes and tried to get into his car - he was very disturbed by it. I also came across \link{http://www.surfingtheapocalypse.com/haunted_painting.html\this} information about a painting that was sold on Ebay, apparently. What do you make of it??

Is this a joke site? I've been sitting in front of my computer for at least half hour, next to the radiator, nice and warm. Just looked at those pictures, and I'm now freezing. The air is really cold and I've put my DS's floor blanket round me to warm up! That boy is SCARY. What did you make of it?

can't open it. My computer, nothing wrong with link.

I have a headache from looking at it but I don't know if that would have happened anyway iyswim. I wanted to know if others feel the same or if it's my mind playing tricks...

I've posted on the other thread to this. I've not opened this link but I'm assuming it's the same as the one on the other thread.
I don't believe in the story about the boy and girl wandering about at all, but there is something just so horribly disturbing about that painting. It's beyond creepy, and I've gone cold as well.
I don't normally get bothered about so-called weird things, but I really wish I hadn't seen that picture at all.
Would certainly not be keen to meet the person who painted it!

Apparently he painted a sequel too.

I've just shown my DH the picture and he doesn't think it's scary at all!

i don't get it... it's just a picture

oh yeah, i;ve seen that one before.

Lordy lor - it's just a bad painting.

Nothing strange happened to me at all, looking at that. It isn't a very nice painting (the children look creepy, yes ... but then I think dolls are creepy) but I don't see how the photos show the boy 'left' the painting ... the light is different that is all.

i didnt look at the other pictures, i was freaked out by then! are they bad?
