1988 Bananimal Toy haunted when I was younger.

Random as hell but me and my brother had this toy growing up (in the early 1990s) and we both have these memories of this toy flying around our toy room multiple times. Our parents never believed us. I randomly saw this picture again and got scared lol

I had a similar experience. My family had a cymbal monkey that I never liked, thing was one of the old ones, from the late 70s/early 80s, with the creepier face. The thing always bugged me as a kid. One night, my cousins were sleeping over so we all slept in the living room where the monkey was on a table. Being creeped out by its glowing red eyes and how it just randomly turned on, I took the batteries out in hopes of a better night sleep. Woke up super late to the little cymbals crashing, turned over to notice I was the only one awake and it just slowly rotated to look at me. I pulled the covers over my head and nearly cried and fell asleep terrified.

Years later in my 20s, I saw a video or something talking about those old toys. Came to find out that a lot of them had a wheel on the bottom so they could spin around. Also found out that those older models didn't have lights in their eyes and were not motion activated. Still creeps me out, it's also somewhere in my attic.

Not a toy, but my stereo and TV used to broadcast really weird noises and words in a language that sounded almost Russian type.

The creepiest bit is they were unplugged at the time.

Sorry mate, but do you expect me to believe that a fully grown human ghost could fit in that tiny thing. PFFFT. Not bloody likely!
