Crazy Ghost originated on a Korean site, myhome.hananet.net/~crazyghost/goto.htm, as early as January 2002. Upon opening the page, the website would open a pop-up containing the image accompanied by a scream.


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 fullscreens itself, 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 g.wav, 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").

Crazy Ghost (Japanese: クレイジーゴースト, kurejī gōsuto), also known as Red-Eyed Woman (Japanese: 赤目女, akame onna) is an image of a pale-faced, red-eyed woman that is used in many screamers. In China, the image is known as 一只可愛的女鬼寵物 (Pinyin: Yī zhī kě'ài de nǚ guǐ chǒngwù, “cute female ghost pet”).

Origin and spread

Korea

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: 

殺生簿
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://myhome.hananet.net/~crazyghost/goto.htm">
위의 테그를 복사하여 테그가 실행되게 게시판에 써넣으시오. 그것이 한번이라도 실행되지 않으면 더욱 끔찍한 것을 보게 될것이다.


List of Victims
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://myhome.hananet.net/~crazyghost/goto.htm">
Copy the code above and paste it on the bulletin board for the tag to be executed. If not, you will see something even more dreadful.

The code exploited HTML injection vulnerabilities to immediately refresh the page and redirect the sender and anyone viewing the thread to the screamer.

China

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.[1]

Japan

Kyāko-san, the moe version of Crazy Ghost

In 2009, the image was reprinted on a Japanese website called 魔を祓う部屋 (ma o harau heya, "Room for Exorcising Demons") under the name クレイジーゴースト.[2] A moeified version of Crazy Ghost, called キャー子さん (Kyāko-san),[3] was posted on Futaba Channel.[4][5]
