Crazy Ghost appeared on myhome.hananet.net as early as January 2002. Upon opening the page, the website would open a pop-up window with the image. It displayed the following text on the main page: | |||

Copy the code above and paste it on the [[wikipedia:Bulletin_board_system|bulletin board]] for the tag to be executed. If not, you will see something even more dreadful. | |||

The code exploited [[wikipedia:Code_injection|HTML injection vulnerabilities]] to immediately refresh the page and redirect the sender and anyone viewing the thread to the screamer. | |||

In October 2002, the image was published to two subpages of a private website belonging to a Chinese university student blog host, vip.6to23.com. Upon accessing the gui.htm page, the website immediately enters fullscreen mode, and open mm.htm as a popup. Upon opening, a dialog box that read 音量调到最大了吗?? ("Is the volume turned all the way up?") appeared. | |||
After clicking the OK button, the page displayed the Crazy Ghost image, and played an audio file consisting of a female scream. The page opened another dialog box when the user attempted to leave the page, which read 哟,怎么你的胆量还可以啊 ("Well, you've got a lot of nerve"). Unlike mm.htm, gui.htm had no image or sound file in its source code, and was likely designed to to redirect the user to mm.htm.<ref>thetuburo.com/2021/12/28/crazy-ghost-gazou</ref> | |||
