Most of us are probably already aware that some people out there spend thousands of dollars for the craziest things. But these items take the cake—with lots of money spent on things that are allegedly haunted, cursed, or linked to crazy deaths or happenings. Some are just incredibly creepy looking.
It's unclear why some people pay this much money for things that others would gladly get rid of, but their stories are surely interesting to read. These 10 incredibly scary items are worth far more than any sane person would spend on them.
10. The Cursed Artwork Painted With Blood
The existence of the oil painting officially known as The Anguished Man was first revealed in a story from Northern England. Sean Robinson claimed that his grandmother had kept this painting in her attic for 25 years and had reported a ton of paranormal phenomena occurring in her home.
She saw a dark figure of a man and heard weird noises, including crying. She also reported that the man committed suicide and used his own blood in the painting alongside the oils.
After his grandmother died, Sean got the painting. It stayed in his basement until strange things started to happen—the same weird noises and crying that his grandmother had experienced. She had warned him that the painting was evil, but Sean and his family weren't prepared for this much.
Although the painting couldn't be brought into your own home, you once could buy it for a whopping £1,500. Supposedly, it is no longer for sale.
9. Doll Haunted By A 20-Year-Old Woman's Soul
This creepy doll was found on eBay of all places. The seller claimed that it's haunted by the spirit of a 20-year-old woman called Diana. The doll goes by the same name. Although the vendor claims that the experiences are mainly for entertainment and aren't guaranteed to work for everyone the same way, it's still very creepy and quite expensive, too.
According to the seller, the doll is constantly causing multiple weird phenomena, such as neighbors seeing "phantom children" and swings moving on their own. Supposedly, Diana is a huge fan of different feminine accessories and products.
Although this is anecdotal evidence at best, you'd still have to be extremely brave to buy this—or any creepy porcelain doll for that matter. At $1,250, the temptation may not be that high.
8. 1:1 Annabelle Replica
Here's another one from eBay. Although this incredibly good—and expensive—replica is said to have no paranormal qualities, this prop is based on The Conjuring and Annabelle movies, which were inspired by real stories from Ed and Lorraine Warren. They were real-life demonologists who dealt with the actual Annabelle doll.
Although the real one looks different from this prop or the one in the movies, it's undeniable that this one looks much creepier. It still has that scary, mysterious vibe that you just don't want in your home. Given how the real doll was said to appear in different places in the house and to be one of the most haunted objects ever to exist, we'd probably pass on this doll. The almost $2,500 price tag is an extra reason for that.
7. The Psycho Pot
A pot?
Yes, a pot—an old, metal one that belonged to a man named Ed Gein. He was a famous serial killer in the 1950s who reportedly murdered people, skinned their cut-up body parts, and turned them into clothing items and furniture. The pot in question is what he used to hold those parts of his victims.
Ed Gein's story was used as the basis of plenty of Hollywood horror classics, including The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Silence of the Lambs. Although Gein became a great example of a psychopathic serial killer in the eyes of film directors, the little pot here isn't a movie replica or prop.
