The Haunted Ebay Painting

The Haunted Ebay Painting
In February of 2000, a California couple posted a unique painting on Ebay. The painting was reportedly discovered abandoned behind an old brewery. The couple reported that their daughter saw the ghostly children leaving the painting during the night. The husband, quite alarmed by his daughter's story, decided to set up a camera. The couple claimed that they successfully captured two pictures of the boy exiting the painting.
Even more scary than the imagery within the painting was the public reaction to the photos. After more than thirteen thousand Ebay members viewed the picture, the following reactions were reported to the winning bidder:
* People claimed they were "repulsed".
* Several people became physically ill.
* Some people reported blackouts.
* One user reported hearing a voice, and feeling a blast of hot air.
* Two friends started crying unexplainably and praying for a minute until things returned to normal.
* One Native American became ill, and was forced to purge his house of unclean spirits with white sage.
The winning bidder discovered that the title of the painting was Hands Resist Him, and it was signed by artist Bill Stoneham
.
The winning bidder claimed that no paranormal activity came with the painting, and the original sellers were never identified. However, whether the painting is cursed remains a topic of debate. The artist later reported that the owner of the gallery where the painting was displayed and the L.A. Times critic who wrote the show review were both dead within a year of the show. Coincidence?

if you are certain that you are not easily "spooked" or disturbed by surreal or psychologically uncomfortable images.
