Because I'm addicted to em.

[Malibu Sally]

You know those things? Like a short video clip or flash picture where after 20 seconds or so, some hideous screaming face appears for a second and scares the crap out of you? I love those things.

What I want is to collect as many as I can. Please post some links for me. Thanks. :)

[Belabras]

There was a really good one from the weebls (made badger badger) folks awhile back with an alien invasion theme, but I can't find it now.

[Tsarmina]

I think I remember seeing a bunch of em over on Liquid Generation. (I think)

[MikeKAY]

This one is pretty creepy, may or may not be what you are looking for though.

Thanks Mike. SOme good ones there. Like this one:

[MikeKAY]

Heheh, that's awesome! :lol:

[Malibu Sally]

Hmmm... along with all those scary pics and vids, are a few that show other people reacting to them:

Kid dupes his brother into watching. (http://www.fazed.org/video/view/?id=103)

Dad scares the boys. (http://www.lookatentertainment.com/v/v-1440.htm)

Some buddies this guy has. (http://www.funnyclipcentral.com/content/reaction.php)

The second one is the cruelest. Those kids are going to on the news someday I think.

[Tsarmina]

Stupid *kick* work computer *kick* won't let me *kick* watch any movies! *kick kick kick* :mad:

[Bari Jon]

That dad is pretty cruel... he actually forces their heads ahead to watch the video at one point... nice.

[Malibu Sally]

Nice one, Joe. Thanks.







I'm sure Poison will say the pop-up was more attractive though. :P

[The Widowed]

Well, since it received a mention in that one reaction film back there....

Hmmm.... the startle value is ok. Maybe if the screamy thingie was in better focus, it would be scarier.

[The Widowed]

By the way, I had collected and emailed links to a bunch of these shocker videos to all my friends and family a while back, and the video in Sally's third reaction clip is an oldie but goodie:

http://www.deecee.de/Fun/whatswrong.swf

This may not be the original link that I had emailed out, but I probably still have that list of links in my Outbox. I'll look around for it and post some more links if I find it.

[Joe Schmoe]

I'm sure Poison will say the pop-up was more attractive though. :P

We all know he's lying ;)

[Poison]

Not more attractive, but definitely better looking. :P

[The Widowed]

Jackpot! :D

it turns out that these are called "screamer" videos, for obvious reasons. As always, our trusty Wikipedia pulls through for us. Enjoy the collection. :D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prank_flash#Examples_of_screamers

[The Widowed]

Yay, I killed another thread!

*thinks*

*starts working on a new avatar*

[The Widowed]

Well...that didn't take long. :D

Maybe I'll do an animation of the whatswrong.swf screamer next. Too bad you can't add sound to these things.... :lol:

Bah Dammit Widdy Beat Me!

[The Widowed]

Caught you Wiki-ing, huh? :D

[Got]

I remember a couple of years ago I got a program from somewhere (I forget now) but basically when it was run a lot of text jibberish would pop up with an exit button at the top. And considering it was jibberish and didn't actually do anything you'd click exit, it would disappear and you'd assume the program was closed. Essentially, when someone sent you it and you ran it you didn't know what the hell it was and you'd assume it was bugged.

HOWEVER, my God, it still scares me when I think about the first time, the program wasn't closed at all it was just running in the background biding it's time to fill your monitor with a ghostly woman and deafening scream. It had a timer of like 2 or 3 minutes. And the thing is once it was run, even though you could close it in the task manager or whatever, it would still run itself on start-up which is what you don't realise until you actually use your computer next and **** yourself all over again.

I sent it to absolutely everyone I knew, it was genius, they hated me for it (but inevitably sent it to everyone they knew).

I wish I could find it again.

[The Widowed]

http://www.jkcinema.com/
So what am I looking for with this one? I can't find anything. O_o

[Druid]

Taken (http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/taken/)

Haha, scared the **** out of my sister with this one. She hated me for weeks.

[Druid]

oh nevermind, seems I arrived to late and two people posted all of them. Oh well.

[Kurai Inago]

Gah... I hate things like this... and I know saying that will get 80 Billion of the damn things mailed to me... And Got, that thing you described would probably make my heart explode, I saw the Ring and I'm STILL freaked out.... Not that my phobia of white noise on TV's before I saw that helps at all... And Wids, Your avatar isn't really creepy, but it is kind of annoying....

[The Widowed]

And Wids, Your avatar isn't really creepy, but it is kind of annoying....
Creepy? Annoying? I was going for funny. :(

[The Widowed]

I swear, I keep seeing that "Your avatar is too big" pseudo-avatar all over the forums. When did they put that in?

Anyway, you all get to help me choose my next avatar. Which do you prefer?

This one...

...or this one?
http://tritonius.com/tmp/ScreamQueen.gif

Need input. :D

If and when someone figures out what this thing is... Please, send it too me. :D

Normally I'd go with the classic "ghost running through the picture" but "gruesome faces at a dining table" has better shock value :D

[The Widowed]

It would have even more shock value if the admins hadn't shrunken the avatar file size. I had to reduce the dimensions of the images and chop out four frames just to compensate for that. :(

[Kurai Inago]

Thank god for Firefox's Ability to Block Images.. that new one is creeping the everliving crap out of me.

[The Widowed]

Mission accomplished? :cool:

Of course, if it bothers you that much, I can always nix one of the faces and replace it with a picture of a flower or a bunny or something. Just pick the face, Sir Strongheart. :D

If that doesn't make the avatar pleasing enough, maybe I can make it spell out Christmas lyrics, like "O holy night, the stars are shining brightly. It is the night of BLARGH!!!"

Okay, I'm hobbling off now. :P

[Kurai Inago]

Nah, you don't need to change it cause I'm a pansy. Just sayin.

[Yin]

LMAO! I love these things, too.

I remember looking at one on Ebaumsworld, and I jumped out of my seat, knocked the desk over, and crammed my toes against the headboard. Yeah. Those are hilarious to prank others.

[The Widowed]

Nah, you don't need to change it cause I'm a pansy. Just sayin.
Okay. I won't. And you are. :P

Oh, look! It's my latest attempt to create an omnipresent staple image with a message, like the one with the bunny with the pancake on his head! Or the one with the soldier drinking a nice, tall glass of STFU. Stuff like that. Let's say hello to the What's Wrong face again, everybody! :D

http://www.tritonius.com/tmp/BLARGH.jpg

Now to figure out what kind of forum chat response would invoke this image. Hmmm.... :think:

*double take*

Why do I get the feeling that those hands in the pic belong to somebody else? :think:

*thinks some more*

[Malibu Sally]

It's not as scary without the scream.

You crack me up. Now quit defiling your Barbies. :D

It was the only image I could find that has not been used already.
