'''[[BestGore|Bestgore.com]]''' was a [[shock site]] created by Mark Marek on April 30, 2008. The website published violent, uncensored videos, photographs, and news, similar to [[Ogrish.com|Ogrish]] and [[Rotten.com]].  
'''Jingle Bells Reversed''' was a [[screamer]] [[Flash]] [[animation]] created by Daniel Fowler and was originally found on [[Newgrounds]] in 2004. The original animation was deleted but added to the [[DeviantArt]] [[website]] by the original owner (under the alias: "Fhashstark") with a description claiming that he's the owner of the animation. [[Jeremy Winterrowd]] also featured this screamer on his website: "[[Winterrowd.com]]". A yellow version of this game can be found on Ebaumsworld and was later posted to Y8.com, a popular flash game website.


The site was created on April 30, 2008, by Mark Marek, and immediately started sharing highly graphic videos and photos of events such as murders. With an estimated 10–15 million monthly visits, BestGore was the most popular shock site in the world. As well to real-life footage and pictures, there were also articles promoting conspiracy theories and revisionist histories, such as holocaust denial, with source material from, most notably David Irving and Ursula Haverbeck. The site has been viewed by some visitors and journalists as being racist and having an extremely toxic community.
The animation starts with an excerpt from the famous Christmas song [[wikipedia:Jingle Bells|''Jingle Bells'']] playing forward. Following the first extract, the same song was played backward, and a color-inverted [[GIF]] of Daniel Fowler, the author, making a weird face flashes with a high-pitched, hilarious-sounding scream about three-quarters of the way through the excerpt.
