I burned one in a fire once and it started going crazy almost seemed like it was trying to get out and then started talking in that really slow deep voice like when they were shutting down hal 9000 in space odyssey .......it was pretty frightening

mine also started doing that slow slurred speech, as well as eventually just speaking complete, glitched out gibberish.

i threw it in a box and it would randomly yell out for weeks after

I skimmed the title of this thread, and thought it was about furries.

I think the thing that creeped me out the most was when you could "feed" it, and it would go "YUUUUUMMM."

Ok, first of all, the way you typed the title is annoying. Only little myspace kids type like that.

But on topic, yes they are very creepy. We had this one when my and my bros were kids. My younger brother dropped it and then it went insane. When he picked it up, it roared angrily and opened it's eyes wide, then it darted into the shadows. I haven't seen it since, but I have a feeling it has seen me...and may still be watching.

Furbies Are Satan!!! Kill The Foul Demons With Fire!
Heyheyhey, my father isn't that bad
*inside joke*

On topic, what creeps me out more than Furbies is the title of this thread. Seriously, it killed my soul (oh wait, I'm the son of Satan...I have no soul :B ). If you want to be taken seriously, type like you have half a brain, even in the title.

But yes, Furbies are indeed rather creepy. I used to have a couple as a kid, buuuuut looking back, I guess I can see one of the many factors that contributed to me being such a wackjob today (hey, at least I'm a multilingual wackjob that cares about the world).

I'm actually being serious. I was looking at one of the safety cards on my last flight, and the list of banned electronics was like "Radios, cell phones, [other stuff that makes sense], and Furbies."

So yeah.
You could still be being sarcastic, but whatever.

That's hella creepy / hilarious. Whichever one fits the situation more.

Close up of this:



The most probable reason would be one or both of the answers on here. I think you can decide for yourself which one makes the most sense.

I guess that explains why my Furby kept screaming "ME GO BOOM!!" ._. Glad the batteries died.

Wait, are they still making those little creepers? I just thought of that o.o

Actually, when I first said it, I was joking, but if I recall, they might have said it if you dropped them. I was 7, so I don't remember clearly. And I'm as confused as you are as to whether or not they stopped making them. I haven't been to a toy store lately, so I wouldn't know xD

EDIT: Yes, Google DOES sound like a good idea.

Re-EDIT: Holy shiznet, they still make them ._.
