Japanese Girl’s Suicide Drawing
The story is this, in Japan shortly before a teenage girl committed 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.

Mhm. Especially near where I live in Northern Ireland…
i live in peterborough mahahahahahahahahahaha know i am scared.
She was great artist,sad that took her own life,though.
just a pretty picture in my opinion… you may think otherwise
thats what i thought too. just a girl who knew how to draw and a beautiful picture.
i like her drawing.the details are amazing
I see her breathing and sorta nodding no, like she’s upset with me. I might be paranoid. It might also mean I can see beyond.
I saw her breathing too!! It scared the crap out of me so much that I ran to my mom.
yup… i look at her eyes for whole 6 minutes …. nothing actually happened.. maybe there are some optical illusion that made me think its moving but no bad effects for my personality.. no suicide
I saw her breathing and I think I saw her start to smile a little, but I looked away on my first minute. My friend said she saw nothing, so it different reactions may come from different people.
…Dude, why are you smirking at me?? O_O Don’t kill me!
Whatever happened I SWEAR it was not me!!!!!!….:(
What?!?!?!?!?!?
she wont kill you and i have been hauted now and then it dont really matter.
This is on a computer, the light plays tricks with peoples eyes. I stared at it for a lot longer than 5 mins and all it did was hurt my eyes. the only difference I saw is that her eyes turn brown
Weird…..i saw this drawing on youtube and wanted to know what it was about…i was going to look at the picture, but im kinda too scared to now /: lol…

Wow, that picture is actually very realistic. Such a fake story though
That was the best 5 mins or my life -__-

wow thts sux well thts wat happens on the internet
i want to try it soooooo bad but im scared ! >.<
If a child drew this photo of herself, her work should be hung in the louve. The drawing can almost be mistaken for a live person. I just wonder if the story about suicide is a hoax to make the photo seem more mysterious. To my knowledge there has never been any official report which listed this person’s name.
As for not being able to look into her eyes for 5 minutes, try staring at your thumb for that long, or anything else. It takes tremendous concentration to stare at something for one minute, much less five.
A clever hoax in this author’s opinion – beautiful girl though.
It doesn’t always have to be a hoax. There are mysterious things in life, right? I’m totally trying it! (but I probably can’t, I have an extremely short attention span.)
CAME FROM A 10 YEAR OLD.. BEWARE. I AM IN 4TH GRADE AND I CAN SOMETIMES FREAK OUT 6TH GRADERS! ( WHEN I WAS IN 2ND OR 3RD GRADE I TOTALLY TRICKED 6TH GRADERS INTO THINKING I WAS A WITCH! THEY STILL AVOID ME! HA! )
If i look at her eyes, her body moves. Otherwise its just a beautiful picture
O.o I drew figure 8 around her eyes on my iPad, entertaining
Simple look – Very nice and beautiful.
Look close and careful – VERY SPOOKY…
I’m even frightened myself! The picture is like looking deep within your soul. The background is also spooky too… If you know what I mean.
i started to get a headache after looking at it for maybe 2
her eyes are moving..look carefuly…
omg!! i saw her left eye move as if she had a lazy eye i also so her chest move like she was breathing but not softly she took deep breaths it was a little creepy
I was staring at her and she started to look more and more tired but then I looked away because my friend called me. When I looked back she looked back to normal. :’( I’m scared now.
@hannah ferreday-
LOL! I know ^.^!!
creepy though, you think?…
Interesting Statistics:
Japan has one of the lowest homicide rates in the world while maintaining one of the highest suicide rates worldwide.
THE MORE YOU KNOW…
I saw her breath 0.o
It looked like she was grinding her teeth to me.
She looks like to me that she starts to frown
Her painting is gorgeous. I feel sorry for her and hope she’s happy wherever she is now.
SHE LOOKED TO THE LEFT AND WAS BRETHING
i have looked into her eyes and you can see her ghost it is tought to keep your eyes of her and then i may be haunted for the rest of my life so dont look at her for ten mins because her ghost will follow you where you will go
I’m to scared to try it!
just do it its not scarer
it’s not moving or anything. You can stare at any other picture. It would look like it’s moving but actually it’s not.. It’s just your eyes is getting fuzzy for staring for a long period of time.
I was look the picture in whole 30 minutes and did not see her move after that i was see her breathing and her eyes move up and other one down and she said what
I noticed something else… Lolz it might sound cheesy but oh well.
When your screen is straight/normally how it sits, she looks like a normal person. When you tilt your screen back (or at least when I do), she goes very dark, her lips go red and her “smirk” is more apparent. Slightly creepy.
When you tilt your screen forward, her skin is highlighted and looks much more melancholic and angelic; you can see more sadness in her eyes.
Wait…what do you mean ’tilt your screen back’? I wanna try
OMG I tried and she moved! I was staring so hard at her, and then I swear I saw she squinted her eyes a little then smirked. After 5 mins, I fell off stairs
But then, I tried again, and I kinda had this theory. The reason why we saw her moved is because our eyes it selves. You know that our eyes can’t really stare at one point for almost like +1min, so then I guess you can make your own conclusion with this. Tell me what you think
Oh and, may the God bless her soul…
mmmm i took a 1 second look ndd now im scared o.o
i look at her eyes longer then 6 mins. i though the story wasnt real.. but when i try to look again i see a black ring at her eyes and she is breathing like shes alive…it makes me scared so i stop looking at her.. may god bless her soul!
My (sadistic and cruel) friend decided to go to YouTube and look up scary crap knowing I hated this stuff. Lets just say we found this video and while she saw her getting old, I actually DID become attracted to her eyes and say dark smudges forming around her eyes. Longer, I saw her mouth move. Not lying, I am in full paranoid mood right now. Call me a baby I am sleeping with lights ON.
And then I decided to look the story up. Hey, maybe it’s not true. Now I see other people having same experiances. No, I don’t feel suicidal or depressed, but I DO keep thinking back to the eyes. Very pretty eyes….ANYWAY, long story short I drove back home after checking twice to see if anyone was in my car and then still kept my eye on the mirror. No, it says she doesn’t do anything you just kill yourself but still. Paranoia is bad with me….Very VERY bad. I hate it. DX
maybe its just an eyes illusion, but still creepy.
i noticed that different people had different reaction from the painting?
This is really creepy. I saw dark rings on her eyes, she smirked, her eye color changed and black blotches appeared on her face. I believe in this legend. I have always believed in Japanese legends. That’s were my name comes from. A japanese horror film. Kayako Saeki is the woman ghost in The Grudge or in Japanese terms, Ju-on. My real name is not that though. I just go by it now. My real name is Yoko. Creepy thing is that Yoko is a character in the American version of The Grudge. Yoko’s jaw gets ripped off by Kayako. She is the first one seen to die in the movie. Anyway, I have always believed in my culture’s legends and always will. So I think this is a true story, and am sorry for her family.
I looked at this picture… she stared into my eyes and i stared back… i couldnt breath. her face deformed
it isn’t true that she commited suicide.I saw this on deviantart.com but it is sorta creepy.
