Have you ever had a decorative piece that seemed to bring more than just aesthetics to your home? Join my sister Mandy and I as we unravel the tale of the infamous ‘Crying Boy’ painting, a popular piece by Giovanni Bregolin. This seemingly innocent artwork of a tearful boy has left a trail of mystery and destruction, as homes displaying it catch fire while the painting remains untouched by the flames. 

Our family has a haunting connection to this painting, which mysteriously disappeared from our home during a move in the mid-80s. As we dig into our family history, we explore the eerie possibility that even copies of the painting may carry the same ominous power. We also discuss our mother's psychic abilities and ponder whether she could have sensed danger from the painting. Mandy and I share our spine-chilling encounters and an uncanny story from her childhood that might explain why the poltergeist in our home had a peculiar aversion to pointy objects.

We reveal the darkest chapter of our family history, when a poltergeist turned our home into a house of horrors. We had to call in a minister to perform an exorcism, a traumatic experience that left no physical injuries but had a profound psychological impact. Join us on this fascinating journey into the intersection of art, mystery, and the supernatural. Discover a side of the art world that is as eerie as it is captivating.
