eBay item - Haunted Nintendo Entertainment System - Paranormal NES
by Rattle at 2:45 am EST, Mar 15, 2005

] When I purchased this Unit I asked the owner of the shop
] about who brought the System in, and what he actually
] told me was that a gentleman had donated it that same
] morning and said "It was just sitting in his attic", and
] according to him, it supposedly belonged to his son who
] passed away years ago.

] I brought this System home, and on the first night of
] playing, about 10 minutes into the game, I began hearing
] sounds similar to human voices, mumbling to the
] background music of the television.

] On 3 separate occasions I've had the game 'Pause' by
] itself, without having my finger anywhere near the 'Start'
] button of the controller, and the really suspicious thing
] about it was the fact the timing of the Pause always
] happened to be during an intense moment of a game,
] as if the intentions were made for me to lose.

] And not only with me. I've invited close friends and family
] members over, and some but not all have witnessed
] something strange happen, like the one time the 'Arrow
] icon' on the Main Options screen of a game actually moved
] down to 2 Player Mode, all while the controller was out
] of my hand.

] Even my cat won't go anywhere near this System, unless
] she's 5 feet away and hesitating to sniff at it, and not only
] that, she's been running back and forth through the house
] in the middle of the night during the past few weeks, and
] that's something she's never done in the entire 8 years
] that I've owned her.

] I sincerely believe there may be some form of strong
] connection or attachment between this system and its
] previous owner.

Currently priced at $152.50. This has Laughing Boy written all over it.

Booga-Booga!

NES??? thats so 1988. Why couldn't it be a haunted X-Box??

P.S.
There are so many "haunted" items on Ebay, word has it they will be starting an entire subcategory for the genre...

P.P.S
Sounds like he ought to invest in a can of electronic switch cleaner. :)

No way! The 8-bit Nintendo system was the most elite game console ever!
