The scarier faces of Candler Arts

Facebook ads really do work. Candler Arts can thank their advertising dollars for appalling us into posting these. The ad photo looked like a crazy representation of Bobby from King of the Hill, so curiosity got the better of us, even though we claim to hate that show. Nevertheless, every time we thought we couldn’t find anything creepier, we were proven scarily wrong.

While not the scariest (you just wait), this depicts the "unflinching images of tough New Orleans neighborhoods" according to the description. How much reality do people need hanging on their walls? If that's what this is. $850 to make your guests uncomfortable.

It's a baby, hatching from an egg. Guess they answered the "what would have made Jurassic Park scarier" question. Scariest thing? It was already sold. Bummerest thing? I have no idea for how much.

The description for this $150 on the site is: "A bizarre looking child holding a bizarre looking stuffed animal." We would change it to: "A blood hungry child deviously strokes this inanimate, but still terrified, stuffed creature."

She's bobbly, and wobbly, and scary as fuck with that 70-year-old patchwork face. Some things don't really need to be restored.

Any guesses for the name of this item? If you guessed Fungus Face you would be correct. Seriously. We guessed Abortion Face and lost a bet. Yours for $395.

Really just more peculiar than scary. The mud symbolizes our everyday despair and the inevitability of death - says someone who carved a semi-decent head out of wood, painted it, and decided to cover it with his/her own feces. $400.

Someone took a rusty bunch of parts and affixed an even rustier baby head to it. Is it scarier because it's got no hands, because it looks like it's wearing boots, or because it's positioned to dance a creepy jig? Whoever made this should have just left those ancient parts in the locomotive junkyard where we're assuming they were found. $175

Thank you, Candler Arts, for this seemingly unending bounty of creepy delights. You’re welcome for the free plug.

The scary faces of Etsy

We’ve suspended our craigslist quest for the perfect coffee table because it’s just too damn depressing. Right now we’re checking out some of the more artisanal pieces on Etsy. Here are some of the things we found on the first pass.

This item is known simply as Green Man. For $30 (plus $10 shipping anywhere in the U.S.) you can do whatever you want with him. We're still trying to figure out exactly what that would be. Perhaps most haunting is that he's gazing to his right, like he's expecting something to happen.

$75. For a yarn bowl! This kinda looks like the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland, if you watched it on mushrooms like any normal person. But this cat looks more surprised. Use it to scare babies and drug addicts. Hide it under something and see what happens.

Another $75 yarn bowl. This one irreverently signifies the pending Apocalypse, and looks like a loony Jaba the Hut, too. That's just what everyone wants in the midst of a yarn project.

For those not in the know, a yarn bowl is a container that keeps your yarn. The end goes through the hole so you can work on your yarn project without the skein going all over the place.

It's an urn. It's a vase. It's...Yoda's brother, according to the description. And it's yours for $65. Plus $17.80 shipping...This thing is almost more terrifying than the Apocalyptic yarn bowl.

So far we’ve found several pretty expensive and unique ways to scare people.

It's a Frida shadow box! If by Frida you mean a dolled up Dennis Blunden from that show Head of the Class. What's missing from this piece? Cheek bones. Eyeballs. A neck.

Dan Schneider, who played Dennis on Head of the Class.

"Hey Ray, get the hell outta bed and take a picture with this cup!" Actually, if this guy ever sees this, I hope he knows we mean no disrespect. It's actually an awesome photo and he's our new hero. He's like "yeah, I'm selling this mug, but I don't want to make a big thing out of it or anything." And it's a cool mug, too. Give us a minute while we take our faces out of his butt hole.

Hey, let's just make a piece of crap bowl out of all our leftover clay and call it art. And sell it for $57 plus $15.80 shipping. The precision is appreciated.

They call this a collander. Seriously? It's pretty but it's got less holes than any of us, even the guys. Maybe call it a bowl, with a couple holes that just happened to appear.

More posting disasters from Dregslist

Thanks for prying your coke-hungry nostril away from the table long enough to take a photo of it.

creepy coffee table legs

They're not fucking around. This table really does have legs. How is that not terrifying?

plastic set of drawers for sale!

Why buy a brand new Rubbermaid storage bin when you can buy a used one of questionable pedigree for slightly less? And by the way, why don't these cheap asses donate this to a secondhand store? The greed is killing us.

The search for the perfect coffee table continues. It seems like we’re never going to find it.

The nerve of these people, misspelling things…

How did this happen? Is anyone else's kidney in a twist?

Hey Marin grocer – if you’re going to charge $9 for a wheel of brie, maybe you could cough up a few extra bucks for an employee who knows how to spell words like “triple” and “creme”. Or better yet, maybe instruct your current staff to muster enough brain power to COPY THE WORDS off that packaging right underneath the misspelled sign. RIGHT UNDERNEATH.

Seriously, Craigslisters. Don’t you listen?

We just can’t understand why it’s so difficult to clean off the thing you’re selling! This one is worse than the last:

The cat litter container is upsetting. The overturned coffee mug is insulting.

Even if we actually wanted to buy this piece of shit table that is clearly the site of numerous haphazard projects, we wouldn’t out of spite. It takes all we have to resist emailing this person just to rant about the ridiculous photo.
