It’s a true story. (Source: am sister.) The extra funny and terrifying part was that I had been asking for a while in faux fear, “What’s in there?!” and he kept predicting “Nothing” and he was right… The severed head joke was just to mix it up! We didn’t have internet spoilers back then.

Also, it burned this moment into my mind when me and my sister were playing Myst for the first time, exploring Achenar's room.
Her: Wonder what's in that wooden box?
Me: *guessing* A SEVERED HUMAN HEAD.
Her: Get real.
Then we opened the box, saw a severed human head, and freaked the fuck out.
