The Crying Boy Paintings

The Crying Boy Paintings got widespread popularity due to the coverage they received in the British newspaper The Sun. The paintings were a series of 65 different paintings of tearful boys that were painted by Italian painter Giovanni Bragolin. No one knows why he painted them and where they came from or who the artist even was, but in the 1980’s there was a report in the paper that there had been several devastating house fires that claimed lives, and while the entire structure burnt down, only a picture of the crying boy remained unscathed.

Whether it’s a coincidence of the pictures are haunted, we’ll never know, but I’d be inclined to avoid putting this thing in my house.
