Facebank swallows souls

Horror: the blankly staring arms, the hungry gumming, the mewling sound of infants dying. All in a Japanese novelty bank!

Ha! That's not what dying infants sound like. I think whatever faker wrote that description probably hasn't killed an infant in a very long time.

That is incredibly disturbing. Off to Cute Overload for a unicorn chaser.

The spooky theremin-esque christmas carols in the background are the perfect soundtrack, too.

"I've never killed a man."

"I didn't ask that!"

"You should."

This idea came directly from a Dr. Who episode! :-)

Saw these for sale at KiddyLand in Tokyo, around twenty bucks.

The same company now makes the larger and creepier "Mega Face Bank".

I watched the video just for the blankly staring arms. Disappointed.
Like the bank anyway.
It eats money. And poops out nightmares.

After three days, I still read the headline as "Facebook swallows souls."
