(rooster crows) (animal roars) (wheel spins) – Oh, look at that, gifticality. – Welcome to Good Mythical More. – That means we’re donating $1000 to Action Against Hunger to aid in their efforts of treating and preventing malnutrition as well as a global goal to eradicate life-threatening hunger within this lifetime. Please join us in giving to ActionAgainstHunger.org. – ActionAgainstHunger.org – [Both] Thank you for being your mythical best. – And for joining us here for more stuff. – We’re gonna look at more eBay items. Some eBay items. And then we have to guess, just based on the description whether it was just a really good deal … – Yeah. – Helluva deal. Or if it was actually described as haunted, because like, haunted things on eBay, it’s like a whole category of things that are sold. Lots of things are haunted. Before we get into that, speaking of haunted, you might remember, we wrote a book last year called The Lost Causes of Bleak Creek. – Oh, it’s a haunted novel. Well, it’s scary. – If you haven’t read it yet, you should. And if you don’t read, you can listen to it on Audible. You can go there and download it. – Listen to it when you’re driving, when you’re jogging. – Don’t read when you’re driving. You know those people, you’ll be like, on the highway and they’ll have like, a romance novel on the steering wheel? Have you seen this? – You’ve seen this? – Haunted (laughs). – This doll. This doll. This doll. There you go, show me that doll. That’s nice. I’m just messin’ with you. Oh they’re fightin’ over there. It’s okay guys. – That’s why you did it that way. That’s why you did it that way. – We’re just here to have fun. – That’s right. – It was really my fault. – I’m not even gonna look over there. – [Woman] We’re having a blast. I’m not even gonna look over there. – (laughs) – I’m only gonna look at this doll. – Let’s look at the first one. – Shall we? – This doll… – That woulda been … There’s another way to do it. Instead of saying “this doll” over again you can be “Let’s take a look at the first one, shall we?” – I know. I did it to mess with them. – Wouldn’t you like to? – And then I looked over there and they were, they were at each other’s throats. – (laughs) – (laughs) It’s like (mumbles) (laughs) – Woman – We know how you feel. – (laughs) I’m sorry, it is my fault. This doll … Let’s just skip to the next one. – No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you gotta read that one, that one was really good. – Okay. This doll has a very active and powerful demon in it. Her eyes follow you on Fridays. – Mmhmm. – It’s crazy, yeah. But just on Fridays so far. – (laughs) – She seems very, very mad and I can’t control her. Maybe you can. She swings her sword rapidly just after nightfall, every night. Please, buyer beware. – I mean if this is not haunted, then I guess I don’t understand haunted. – Well… – But it’s whether or not they said it was haunted in the description, right? – Or, if it was what, written by us? – [Stevie] So yes, the descriptions that you’re reading, some of them are real descriptions that are attached to the items that you’re seeing, and some of them are written by our writers. – Thank you for clarifying how the game works. – That’s really funny. So does that mean that… – That means that- – … Our writers are funny, or that somebody on eBay is funny? I’m gonna say this is real, haunted. – I think our writers are funny. – Yeah I don’t … Sorry writers. – I’m going with helluva (laughs). – [Stevie] I both think our writers are funny and that this is a haunted doll. – Ohh. – So I was right, but I do apologize. – So that’s for reals. [Stevie] Yeah, and she’s priced it 39.99. – On Fridays, see there’s some incongruity here because her eyes follow you only on Fridays, but she swings her sword every night, at nightfall. – Hmm. – So it’s … They say it’s haunted but it’s not. You wanna read one? This doll. – [Stevie] You’re adding an extra element to the game, which is your own opinion but … – This doll. – I was sold these snakes at a flea market by a very old man with a beard. Hmm. Well that’s kinda weird when a bald man and a lot of bad has happened to me since then. – Hmm. – So please be safe if you choose to buy this. Consider this a warning. That’s kinda weird. Lot of bad stuff. That’s pretty not specific. – Yeah which rings true as a true eBay description. – An eBay description. – So I’m gonna say this is also an actual eBay description of haunted. – You know what? My instinct is to go with you, but maybe I can tie it up if you happen to be wrong. – Did you make this up? – [Stevie] This is not haunted. – Oh. – Yeah! – [Stevie] It is Craig’s recurring nightmare and it’s selling for 49.99. – 49.99. – 50 dollars. – All right, we’re tied up. – That’s not really a great deal. – This telephone. This telephone. This telephone. I’ve been looking at it the whole time, is 100% haunted. So if you’re into that kind of thing, this is the phone for you. The spirit of a woman named Doris lives in this phone and she seemed very angry. She’s out for revenge, but I don’t know for what. P.S. this phone doesn’t work to call people, it’s just possessed. I’m showing you this to let you know that I am not making up any of this. – I don’t think that- – But did they? – I don’t think people’s spirits can … Can they get into phones? – But that’s not what we’re talking about. What we’re talking about is is this an actual eBay description of something which probably, yeah, doesn’t happen? – But can a person’s soul get trapped in a phone? I think maybe you can get like, associated with a phone. But get inside the phone and not be able to get out like a genie in bottle? – Yeah that’s just a stupid lie, but I think it’s a lie that’s made by a real person on eBay. – I think that because everything on eBay is true… – Mmhmm. – … that, what am I trying to say? – [Stevie] Yeah, wait, Link did you answer the wrong- – Yeah, he did. – [Stevie] Okay. – Yeah, yeah. Thank you, thank you. – That means the writers made this up. You confused me and then I was confused myself when I looked at the paddle. I think it’s a helluva deal. – [Stevie] This is not haunted. But that’s a really good idea for a horror film. – The woman in the phone? – [Stevie] Yeah, just like, no, like, the main, the protagonist thinks that someone’s actually calling and they’re talking to someone but the phone doesn’t work, it’s just a spirit inside the phone that they’re talking to named Doris. – But spirits can’t do that, Stevie. – Yeah that’s the problem Stevie is that that’s physically impossible. – [Stevie] Oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Yes, thank you. – Now they can get inside baby dolls. – We have another, we have another eBay, we have another eBay … – (laughs) – We have another eBay thing here and this one says… – (laughs) I’m Ed McMahon. – This one says, this one says I … “I … But I totally regret that.” – (laughs) – Open the envelope, read that. – I’m not gonna attempt to do an Ed McMahon impersonation beyond a really non-discreet laugh. – You’re not drunk enough. – This unicorn… – Bunch of old reference jokes here. – Yeah. How many of you in the comments know who Ed McMahon was? – Flash. – Ed McMahon, what did he host other than- – Star Wars. I mean, Star Trek. – The others said Star Search. – Star Search (laughs). – He hosted Star Search and then he, but he was also- – Welcome to Star Wars. – … Johnny Carson’s sidekick on The Tonight Show. Ever heard of that? Kids! – Woman – [Man] Didn’t he do Publisher’s Clearing House? – Publisher’s Clearing House. – Yeah and he was the Publisher’s Clearing House guy! – Carrying a big check. – Is he dead now? – [Man] Yeah, he’s been dead. – Ed McDead. – Woman – [Man] Wow. – Dead McMahon. – (laughs) – That’s better, Dead McMahon. That’s better. We all die. – (laughing) Dead McMahon. You have really one-upped that joke. – (crowd laughs) – What did I say? Because I hope that comes back and really works as a punchline. Anybody remember what I said? – [Man] Not regretting it. – And I don’t regret it. K, go ahead. – This unicorn has been with me for a long time. She is a brass unicorn named Cherry, and she loves to sit in the sunlight. She has aided me with many good luck and fortune spells. I feel that it’s time that someone else should have a positive spirit to aid with the spells or help bring in good luck and fortune into your home. Ask … Any questions, just ask. She does look like a good spirit. – And I don’t regret it. I think … So, I guess- – Why would you sell this though, if you were getting good fortune and good luck- – Well, here’s what I’m realizing. You know, people attach a story to things they wanna, crap they wanna get rid of in order to sell it. I mean it’s just, it’s a long standing principle of marketing that you just make up crap. – Right. This unicorn has not helped with any good luck or fortune spells, but it does love to sit in the sunlight, I believe that part. – Well, I just believe that somebody wrote this in order to sell something they actually didn’t care about. So we’re both saying- – We’re both saying haunted. And we’re both 100% correct. – [Stevie] It’s haunted. – Yes! – [Stevie] And the seller’s asking $250 for it. – Get it, get it! Ya’ll gettin’ it? – Haunted, very active coins. The charm helps you focus on your wishes. These are fun and spooky. Have been known to move around, shoot off bright sparks around you and open your intuition and your psychic abilities. Wonderful, unique gift. Let them know it is haunted though, or put powerful Z-zeer energy in each piece for protection and psychic ability. Z-zeer energy. – Listen. You all made this up. I mean, this is so- – You get a raise. – The way that it’s written is so well. Look at this, look at this. – Doesn’t make sense. – It just says “Haunted, very active coin. “The charm helps you focus on your wishes.” Like… – Right. – That doesn’t- – Doesn’t make sense. – I mean, the sentence doesn’t make sense. This is a great description for an eBay item. You made this up. – I hope you guys wrote this one. – [Stevie] Those are your final guesses? – So you need to change that. – No, no, I’m saying it’s haunted. – Oh, so you’re saying they didn’t write it. – I’m saying that- – You’re falling for it. – Yup. – I’m not falling for it. This was written under this roof. – [Stevie] It’s haunted. – Oh really? – Yeah. – [Stevie] One of them can be yours for 3.99. – Z-zeer. – Z-zeer energy. – What is Z-zeer energy? – Let’s knock these last two out so that I can catch up with you. – It sounds like a drink. Had a ton of activity in my house before cleansing it with sage. – Hmm. Hmm. – Is sage a person? – Woman – You know how this works. – Was told by the medium that it was used, that the spirit was an is contained in this jar. I do not want it in my house. This was evil and manipulative. It comes with a warning. To those who open this, I will not be responsible for the outcome. He goes by the name of Luke. Peace, love, and light.” – So, Luke the ghost is in that jar. (sighs) – This is too … too good. – I think somebody could sell Luke in their jar. – I think ya’ll made this up. Luke. Luke in a jar. Peace, love, and light. – All right, we’re locked in. – [Stevie] It’s haunted. But guess how much it’s going for, or it’s listed for. – $100. – Well it’s a person. I mean, this is a former person. This is a spirit, I mean… – [Stevie] Yeah. – $1800. – [Stevie] $5,000. – Well, peace, love, and light. – You can list anything on eBay. We’re only stupid enough to buy it. What are we, I mean… – But what if you list 100 of these jars and then then just one idiot buys it, it’s worth it then. – Yeah. – That’s a good business. – Look at Gwyneth Paltrow. – Right. – This doll contains the spirit of Tabitha. And Tabitha is, good gosh that’s scary, a vengeful spirit. We don’t know how old the spirit is or what they want but it’s definitely not good. This doll, should you choose to buy it, should be sitting on the shelf facing the wall because she’s not to be trusted. This doll is violently possessed and only people who are trained to handle demons should invest. – Trained to handle demons? Nice try. – You know what? I think this is real too. Look at … eh. – I mean it has a knife. – Who’s winning? – [Stevie] Um. – By how much? – By one. So you better be right. – I gotta stick with this. – [Stevie] Okay, so what I have here it says, “The seller of this doll was warned by many people that Tabitha is haunted based purely on her looks, but the seller does not seem to believe that. So on a technicality, no, she is not haunted. But she’s selling for the seemingly haunted price of $666.” – All right, so we tied up. That’s all I really learned. – Well hold on. – Right? – [Stevie] No, Brett won. – It’s not haunted but it is a real listing, and that’s really- – [Stevie] No! – Well even if we tied, I’m still up by one. – [Stevie] They’ve all been real listings but some of them have fake descriptions. – What? – [Stevie] It’s okay, we played the game. – That’s being sold on Ebay. – I know they’re all being sold. – Was that the last one? – [Stevie] Yeah. – Okay, I win. – All right, fine. He wins. – I’ll take the frogs. – I’m just creeped out. Oh, you want my frogs? – Yeah. – [Link] Signed copies of our New York Times’ best-selling novel, The Lost Causes of Bleak Creek are available now at mythical.com. – [Rhett] Get ’em before they’re gone.
