TU Tuesday - Classified

Bally pinball. Used but in excellent condition. One small wear spot to right of magic trunk.

On Monday, April 30 my life was changed forever. When I woke up on that fateful day it seemed just like any other day. I woke up as usual to the birds chirping and slowly dragged myself downstairs and into the kitchen to make breakfast. Then when making the coffee I noticed something strange in the living room, a pinball machine. I figured that Dave must have purchased it the night before and brought it home. I slowly approached the machine and inspected it. The machine was a pinball machine and the theme was magic. All over the machine there were pictures of magic things such as trunks and rabbits coming out of hats. After inspecting the machine it seemed in very good condition except for "One small wear spot to right of magic trunk." After inspecting the machine for a little longer I went back to the kitchen to finish making my breakfast. An hour later Dave woke up and I questioned him about the machine. Dave said the last night he had purchased it after a night of drinking and he admitted to not remembering most of the night. Dave said the man he bought it from had said that it was "Used but in excellent condition." After our conversation we shrugged it off and went on our own way. Then about an hour later I was watching TV and suddenly the machine turned on and started playing it eerie music. I walked over to the machine only to find it wasn't even plugged in. Frightened I went to get Dave to show him but by the time we got back to the living room it had turned off. This occurrence repeated several times throughout the day and by the night time I was practically crying of fear. That night was the most unrest full night of my life; I couldn't sleep because I kept on hearing the music. The next morning I took matters into my own hands and went online and wrote up a classified ad for it. This brings me to where I am today, waiting and hoping that someone will come and take the pinball machine away from me and take the curses as well.
