spoiler:





the ghost is a real person with scary makeups, not a drawing or anything, so its more scary!

It got me a little, despite expecting it. That music is key, I think. ;)

Now I'll be debating with myself all day about whether or not to show it to my gf... (the last such thing was the clockspider, which I didn't end up showing her -- spiders freak her out something awful).

Speaking of these things....there was a link to a picture (of a living room or something) and after like a minute it screamed and flashed something on the screen....i can't find it anymore though...it asked what was wrong with the pic (so you leaned in really close looking for it).

I even think I posted in that thread but can't find it. Oh and the car one was AWESOME on my wife :)

Ahh! I hate that one! I've seen several of these scary flash videos (where's waldo, some sketch drawing one...), but this one totally shook me up. I turned up the audio to hear the creepy voice, then AHHHH! It was late at the office too, so everyone was gone. Plus, they were doing construction upstairs and there would be weird noises. I decided to leave...just to walk right into a hall draped with several semi-transparent sheets (for the construction). Man, that was creepy.

Yeah, wasn't it like a ghostly looking woman?

LMAO. I just played that for my kids and three of their unsuspecting friends that are visiting and every last one jumped back and some shouted. :D

i hate when i jump out of my seat watching something like this and so i send it to a braindead coworker, telling him it's freakin awesome. He watches it and doesn't even flinch. Then he's like "you think that was scary??" And i'm like "Umm...no, not at all....i just uhh...wanted you to see how that COULD scare people if it was...uhh....more SCARY...."

That's why the only people I would show would be my mom or my gf. While I'm pretty sure that it would startle or scare any normal person, those are the only two people I know who I can guarantee a good scream from.

Good stuff, keep it coming.

I remember there is another one, like a Chinese one where it's a sketch of a boy sitting on a hill with pleasant sound, and then bam!

Anyone has a link to this?
