Hello, and welcome. This file covers some of the bizzare, claimed to
be haunted items on eBay and tells their stories. I do not know weither
they are true or not.




[ THE HAUNTED PAINTING - THE BOY & DOLL ]

By far the most popular haunted item sold on ebay. The haunted painting 
depicts a picture of a boy and a doll (sometimes claimed to be a girl)
standing by a window, in which the window has various hands about in
a dark background. The boys eyes are very odd looking and he has the
appearance of being older in the face than what he is. The girl is a
doll with extremely dark eyes, and the limbs are loosely put together.

The claims to this photo is that the owner's daughter has seen the two
fighting..and apparently came into the room at night. The family decided
to setup cameras and apparently pictures proved that the boy did come
out of the painting in at least one occurance. This is when the person
decided to sell it.

This painting was orignally done by Bill Stoneham in 1972.





[ THE HAUNTED PAINTING - BUSINESS MAN/BLOOD SPLATTER ]

This is another posting of a haunted painting on July 7th, 2002. The
painting depicts a portrait of a business man and "blood splatter"
all over his left shoulder. The business man's eyes look cold and
distant, gives quite a errie feeling to it.

The story goes with a man named Harold and his wife. Apparently in 1996
his wife as diagnosed with multiple-schlerosis. By the time 2001 hit 
Harold's wife was bed-ridden. In Feb. 2001 Harold was diagnosed with
brain cancer, so on march 23rd 2001 he had had enough. Harold killed
"Dolly" (his wife) by shooting her in the back of the head as she was
sleeping with a 12gauge shotgun. Harold then proceeded to end his own
life.

The painting was found sometime later behind boxes in the house, 
there is a supposed second face behind the "blood splatter". The owners
of this house have since had some strange occurances in their house.
Apparently their dog has howled at the painting, while the wife has seen
"Dolly" at the edge of the bed in a wheelchair.
