I don't have enough space here to tell the complete story behind
this, so I will briefly go over it. Back in the early 1980's, while out metal
detecting, I came across and old abandoned cemetery with the foundation of a
homesite or Church or something nearby. While searching around the
foundation, my detector indicated there was something in the ground close by
the southwest corner of the foundation. After digging down about 2 feet my
shovel struck a wooden box that had nearly rotted out. The metal hinges and
hasp were about all that was left of it. I thought I had discovered a
fortune! Boy, did that ever turn out to be wrong!! There were 2 jars and an
old journal in the box. The jars had some strange writing and symbols on
them. While getting the jars out of the ground, I dropped one and it broke. A
black mist or something seeped out of it. I should have known something was
wrong right then and covered the find back up but being young and foolish I
didn't. I left the broken jar with what looked like a candle in it there
where it fell and took the other one (see the pictures) and the old journal
home. What I was able to read in the journal before the pages crumbled made
the hair on the back of my neck stand up! That night, I had my first visit
from what I can only describe as "The Black Thing". While lying in
bed, this "thing" fell on me and it felt like I was being pushed
down thru the bed and the floor, into a pit if you will! I struggled with it
and managed to somehow escape its clutches. Since that time, I have been
attacked twice more and both times the unopened jar was in the close
vicinity. I and others have caught fleeting glimpses of a black shadowy thing
out of the corners of our eyes as it would pass from one room to another. I
finally talked to someone who is versed in these things and was told that the
only way to rid myself of this thing was to pass the unopened jar on to
someone else. Therefore, I am offering to you, if you dare, the "Ghost
in the Jar". With it I am sure you will be getting the "Black
Thing" also. If you are brave enough to want this, bid to your hearts desire! I am going to start the bidding at 99.00
and put a rather high reserve on it so only those with a real desire and want
to will be able to purchase it! What you will recieve
for your money is the jar pictured along with some of the original black and
white photos depicted here and others. You will also recieve
a complete written version of everything from the original finding of the
jars and to the best of my recollection what was contained in the old
journal. I will also tell you what I was able to find out about this from the
person who told me to pass it on. Be advised that once you buy this it is
yours and I will have nothing ever again to do with it! ALL SALES ARE FINAL!
You must contact me within 24 hours of the close of the sale to make payment
arrangements and to arrange for delivery which the buyer is liable for. This
can NOT be shipped thru the Post Office. Either UPS or pay me to deliver it!
Payment must be made within 7 days of the close of the auction. P.S. As to
the photos running with this, please note the one with the what looks like
figures in them at the cemetery. I discovered this after turning them in to
be processed. I WAS ALONE AT THE CEMETERY THAT DAY! This too will be gone
over in the written "Diary" which comes with the purchase.
Remember, DON'T bid unless you are seriously wanting to own this as I WILL
NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS ONCE THE TRANSACTION IS
COMPLETE!

Due to the high amount of emails I've recieved concerning this item, I am going to try to
answer some of your questions here. Number 1, No this is NOT a hoax, it is
real. Yes, I have tried re-burying it but it did not work, it only made
"The Black Thing" more active until I dug it back up. Yes, I COULD
either give it away or sell it for a buck or two....I've
had many opportunities over the years to do that very thing with friends or acquaintices. But, as I said, I want this thing to go to
someone with either a knowledge of these things or to someone who is into the
occult or whatever who might be able to control it or have some knowledge of
what to do with it or do something with it! NOT someone who just wants to
play at it! I feel that the best way to do this is to set a very high reserve
so only someone SERIOUS about it can "OWN" it. As far as more of
the story, the winning bidder will get the entire story, all the details
including encounters others besides myself have had with it and what was told
me about it and what to do to get rid of it! Some of you have emailed
claiming to know what it is and some have called it an evil spirit, some a
poltergeist, etc. I don't care what it is, I just want RID of it! Some of
your emails I will try to answer personnally as
soon as I have the time. Thanks for looking.
