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.

I just want everyone to know that the person with the other"Ghost in a
Jar" has nothing to do with mine....note the lack of photos...just someone
playing around trying to con you. Mimicry may be the highest form of
flattery but they are just riduculous!
