black eyed kids/haunted painting on ebay???????

[loopylou6]

hi ive just been having a look through threads and found one titled the same as the title for this thread, i was wondering does anyone have a link so i can see this picture?

Here it is. It's very creepy, but if you look at some of the other artwork by Bill Stoneham - they are just as strange.

Ohhh I'm gonna have nightmares looking at this tonight

oh goodness - this bothered me when I saw it. But there isn't any evidence the painting is haunted really is there? The pictures used to sell it make me

Still, when I told my dh about it he said "how silly" but when I showed it to him he said "Don't let the children see it!"

clever marketing ploy - nothing more.

I really want to see it now. Just how scarey is it? I'm easily spooked but incredibly nosey. On a scale of 1-10 anyone???

thanks roses, im still gearing myself up to look at them, i keep hiding my face under my cardi loooool.

I can't see anything scary about it.

earl ive only looked at them from the corner of my eyes at the mo LOL but thety do look pretty nasty

it isn't scary at all

When I look at it nothing much happens.

Not sure whether it genuinely has anything to do with BEKs (black-eyed kids) which are thought to be mysterious children who try to trick people in to letting them into their house or car. Usually the person notes something odd about them before realising they have black eyes.

eh, am I missing something? whats so scary about it?

So, are they black eyed kids looking spooky, all huddled together? Just preparing myself And TheWoman, if it's a marketing ploy, what is it marketing.

Sigh. This is from the woman who finds (yes, very odd I know) looking at maps/aerial photographs scarey. Especially on a screen.

OMG why the hell did i look at that.

The painting is horrible and disturbing and painful.

I want to know what it looks like, without actually looking.

im scared

Rosylily - what do you think it means?

NM, please tell.

earlgrey - it is a piture of a boy and he is standing with a black-eyed doll.

No, it's not haunted. It's just freaky is all.

It is not overly scary IMO.

you have to scroll all the way down to get scared, tis rubbish but still freaky (but then i am all alone!)

To me it means the painter is lonely and sad. I've experienced waking up and still hearing the many voices speaking incomprehensively in my dreams. At that time I was very sad and lonely and some of my paintings were disturbing.
I don't like to look at that kind of work or producing it now I'm in a different place.
Looking at someone elses pain is disturbing.

Can't imagine anyone wanting that pic up on their wall though!

Don't see it as haunted at all. Let me ask you, if the painting was described as something else, would you still see it as haunted? It has been tainted by that title. Even the painter himself is alive and well and puzzled by the furore.

It's a spooky kind of picture but that is all.

I'm thinking I should try to sell my picture of Morticia on Ebay and see how many people claim bad luck because of her!

boy standing looking kind of scary and a girl doll next to him wiht blacked out eyes.

It is probably not as scary as you imagine.
