"This sword is from the 1700s. I got it at an antique store in my memaw's home town back in 1984. The person who sold it to me told me to be careful because there is a 90+% chance that it is cursed. Since it's been in my house my life has descended into pure chaos. My knitting group came over and they all said they could feel a strange energy in my sword room (I have a collection of over 100 swords. This is my only haunted sword). Since i got this sword, about 3 times a week a crucifix will fall off of my wall for no reason. I am 76 years old. I cannot have this cursed item in my house anymore. Please take it off my hands!!"

But if it is a +2 curse you need a saving roll before you cast remove enchantment.....

Since this is from the 1700s, I suppose you may be interested.

Crikey! All I can say is that if you’re right, Ahnold hasn’t aged well at all.

If you have a haunted sword, you had better hide all the cereal. Haunted swords love cereal!

DANG!

[Slings and Arrows]

Chiles, probably. Very popular for decoration in the Southwest.

They knit with steel wool and spun lead?

Headline should read “Reproduction Sword with Fake Curse - $150

THAT would add up.

This story caught my attention because my father has a real antique sword collection, most of which are hanging on a rack in my bedroom at his house. Last week I was laying on the bed trying to get my son to sleep and looking at them, and wondering if any of them had ever killed anyone. Pretty spooky!

[Bulwyf]

1700s, most swords had gone to the rapier style or saber. That style would of been far older. This story doesn’t add up.

Me at home.

That's a regional nickname for "grandma."

Old Lady: "You'll dry up and turn into a skinny, decrepit wreck of a man with bad breath, a wrinkled butt, and a lousy love life!"
BtD: "Whoa! It's working!"

Old Lady: "Yep. I bought this last year when I was only 35."
