I wouldn't sit in that chair, but I'd wear the Hope Diamond every dang day if given the chance. Of course I'd have it smudged, then blessed first. Just to be safe...

BTW, there's a haunted chair in a house called Baleroy Mansion in Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia. Apparently the gentleman who owned the house had to keep it roped off because everyone who sits in it dies very shortly after. I wouldn't sit in that chair, either. It has already claimed at least four victims. Why tempt fate?

You know, I am really a lot more superstitious than I think I am.

Here's the link to the Baleroy Mansion story. I was sorry to see that the gentleman who owned the house died. I wonder who owns the house now? It would be an amazing place to investigate!

I read a story about that place a long time ago- I wish I could remember where I read about it. I started reading books and articles about hauntings when I was just a little kid so I lose track. I vividly remember the part about the brother's reflection being a skeleton and then dying shortly after. Still sends chills down my spine.

As for if I'd sit in any cursed chair- No way. I'm not a gambling woman.

Wow ... you know how many years of bad luck I should have had, with all the mirrors I've broke??? Wow I think I should be 'dead' ... /blink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

Curses are subjective ... it's like the gal in another forum who was told by a Tarrot Reader: Something "bad" will happen to you within the next three months." Well guess what? Yup, you guessed it - something bad happened every month! But the last day of the 3rd month - she was convienced that all the other 'bad' built up to this. She had a fender bender.

She all but psyched herself out over this reading.

Doesn't matter if it's cars, chairs, rings, mirrors, salt, pepper, a penny ... it's all mind over matter. If you pay it no mind, it won't matter. If you give it thought ... well .... 100% of these curses are self-filled prophecies / curses.

Why would anyone want to willingly believe in a "curse"?? Never made any sense to me ...

As to the electric "death" chair....that thing creeps me out every time I see it in pictures or on TV. I cant explain it but *shivers* ugh.

As to the balory house. Thats creepy. And not only would I not sit in that chair, Im not going in that room lol. At least not alone and overnight.

Well, really it's no different than any other chair. 100% of people who sit in 100% of chairs have or will die. Life is terminal.

Agreed. But who wants to volunteer to go sooner than necessary? Would you sit in the chair?

I hate to sound supperstitous, but I'm not sitting in that chair. O.o (or touching the hope diamond lol)- although I did get withen a foot of it once.

Y'know - if you think about it, everybody who sits in every chair eventually dies. Maybe it's sitting that kills us and all of the chairs are cursed. /unsure.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':unsure:' />

The only cursing chairs do is making your butt huge from sitting on them so much. /laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

That reminds me of a Texas death row inmate they used to call "Ballpark Frank".

He really plumped when they cooked him... /tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />

Note the footprints around Ole Sparky! I wonder if the

J&G of GH were there and threw out some flour?

Also we have a chair like that in Texas called Old Sparky that is even more famous.

That guy looks like an anorexic john candy

Especially when there are cats sleeping on the porch.
