The Scariest Picture on the Internet

  The other day I became obsessed with Creepypastas. If you don't know what a Creepypasta is I'll explain.
 A creepypasta is an urban legend or a paranormal story that is made up and posted on an imageboard or an internet forum, and is meant to scare the person. Some of these creepypastas include story's such as lost episodes, that cause people to commit suicide or die, such as in the fashion of the movie The Ring. These stories are quite addictive and are best read at nighttime so you get that creepy feeling of the chill down your spine, and the feeling that you are being watched. I will now share with you a creepypasta that is completely false. This one is called The Scariest Picture on the Internet.
  The story is this, in Japan shortly before a teenage girl comitted suicide, she drew this picture, scanned it and posted it online. In korea this story broke out and it spread like wildfire. There are various posts around in korean forums that say that the viewer gets drawn to the girls blue eyes, they say they can detect a hint of wraith and sadness within the eyes. Maybe the girl had died with so much sadness and anger that her spirit haunts the image, or maybe the image provoke sadness, similar to the song 'Gloomy Sunday'.
The freaky bit is this, they say it is hard for a person to stare into the girls eyes for longer than 5 minutes, there are reports that some people have taken their own lives after doing so. People say the picture changes, as you view it there is a hint of a growing taunting smirk appearing on the girls lips or a dark ring grows around the girl or her eyes.
  Now I will debunk how this creepypasta is fake. The story says that the girl who drew this picture of herself was Japanese. Take a good look at that picture. You can clearly see that she is NOT Japanese. She is in fact more Caucasian looking than Japanese. This picture is a CGI drawing by a man by the name of Robert Chang titled "Melancholic Princess" http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/database/art/view.pl?id=9270 That is where the picture originates, However I don't know where the suicide story comes from.
IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!!!!
This is what happens when you open the Ark of the Covenant.
You think that is the scariest picture on the internet? Well prepare to go back to 2005. Remember the Many Faces of Paula Oliveria? She's the girl who has that scary facial expression. Look to the right of your screen feast your eyes upon that.
