Curse and Legend
The "Curse of the Crying Boy"
Around 1985, a series of mysterious house fires were reported in which everything was said to have burned, except for the painting: The Crying Boy. This remained undamaged. In the years that followed, around 40 to 50 cases were recorded in which a house fire destroyed everything except the painting in question. The phenomenon became known as the "Curse of the Crying Boy" and made headlines around the world. The painting itself was a portrait painted by the Italian artist Giovanni Bragolin. It was said that his studio burned down and the boy was later killed in a car accident. This painting was one of the first to be mass-produced, but the curse also seems to extend to all copies circulating around the world. It is said that the curse only takes effect when the owner of the painting becomes aware of it. It is also claimed that the painting is possessed by the spirit of the boy depicted. One eyewitness reported that he had such a copy hanging in his house for 15 years. Although it never burned, he never liked it and it always sent a shiver down his spine when he looked at it. But that was a long time ago. Nevertheless, he wondered who might own the picture now. But one thing was certain, he himself would never hang the picture in his house again.
The "Cursed Doll"
This story is based on true events from the 1970s. Donna Bernard was given a doll for her birthday. She later reported unusual occurrences involving the doll. There were reports of the doll moving, disturbing written messages and the appearance of blood. Demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren examined the doll and came to the conclusion that the doll was possessed by a demon and performed several exorcisms on it. The doll is still kept in a locked display case today. It is still assumed that the doll is still possessed by the demon.
Der "Slenderman"
This modern legend is based on events in Scotland. In 1986, fourteen children disappeared without a trace on a playground there. A photo taken a week later went down in history. A large, blurry figure was visible next to a tree - the first picture of Slenderman! He is described as being up to 4 meters tall, with long, thin arms and legs and no facial features. Long tentacles are also said to be able to grow from his back. He usually wears a black suit. To this day, there has been no trace of the children. According to a myth, he prefers to stay in dark forests or wooded parks at night. He moves silently and has the ability to teleport to different places in a flash. His victims are followed for some time before he catches them and impales them on trees, disemboweling them. Many disappear forever without a trace.
The "Necronomicon - Book of Death"
The Necronomicon, also called the Book of Death, was written around 700 AD in what is now Yemen. According to legend, it was made from human skin and written in blood. The book tells of the cults of the demon gods Azathoth, Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, Shub-Niggurath, Tsathoggua and Yog-Sothoth. The Necronomicon not only deals with their origins and history, but also contains numerous magic formulas and rituals for summoning these demons. Overall, the book contains symbols, curses, the hierarchy of demons, incantations, magic formulas and portals to other dimensions. To this day, no one knows the whereabouts of the Necronomicon. If this book falls into the hands of a person, just reading a few lines could have devastating consequences and summon numerous demons and spirits.
