The Red Room is a pop-up computer ad that is accompanied by a cute mechanical synth voice that constantly asks, "Do you like the Red Room?" ”

If you receive this ad, please be sure not to close it. Because according to urban legend, this is an advertisement with a curse. If you close it when you receive it, it will die quickly.

So what happens if you try to turn it off?

Once you click Close, the pop-up window will appear again. In the process of repeated deletion, the text on the ad will split in the middle, and gradually other text will appear, with many names written on it.

At the end of the page is the name of the person who informed you of this rumor.

Rumor has it that the person who closed the advertisement the next day would be found in a different place, and the walls were dyed red and turned into a red room.

At the same time, many new names were added to the advertising page of the computer.

It is rumored that a headless motorcycle rider appeared near Okutama in Tokyo. If the bike is overtaken by him, he will die in a traffic accident.

It is said that the headless horseman used to be a drag racing party, but when racing with the mobster, the other party pulled a piano wire on the track, causing his neck to be cut off when he passed, so he became a headless ghost haunting the road.

Japanese light novel writer Yoshigo Narita's urban group portrait "Persona of the Headless Horseman" describes a series of extraordinary stories triggered by the headless motorcycle rider who appears on the streets of Ikebukuro, Tokyo, and the various characters around her. (There is an anime of the same name, which retains the interesting narrative timeline and brilliant characters of the original work, and it is recommended to make up for it!) )

This is the story that happened in the Hirasha student dormitory at the University of Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, and yes, just as every university has its own haunted rumor (dog head), the students in this dormitory also encountered this kind of bad thing.

Many students said they had seen a ghost passing through the walls in the dormitory at night.

The ghost always appears as a marathon runner, appearing from one end of the dormitory building and passing through each dormitory until it runs to the other.

When sleeping at night, sometimes the ghost of running will suddenly appear from the wall, startling the students who have been "stepped on".

Students talk about it. Finally, some of the senior students recalled, "So, there seems to have been such a thing in the athletics department of this university before." A student running a marathon dies suddenly before reaching the finish line, which may be his soul. ”

After hearing the news, one student said, "I have a solution." The next night, he called a few friends into his room. He took out a strap that was used as the finish line for the marathon, asked two friends to take one end, and pulled a finish line in the room.

Late at night, the ghost of the marathon runner really reappeared, it suddenly ran out of the wall, crossed the fake finish line made by the student gate, and disappeared with a smile on its face and contentment.

No one ever saw it again.
