Current Events > did anyone else notice something odd about the lavender town music?

(+) Yeah! (+)

The Lavender Town Syndrome (also known as "Lavender Town Tone" or "Lavender Town Suicides") was a peak in suicides and illness of children between the ages of 7-12 shortly after the release of Pokmon Red and Green in Japan, back in February 27th, 1996.

Rumors say that these suicides and illness only occurred after the children playing the game reached Lavender Town, whose theme music had extremely high frequencies, that studies showed that only children and young teens can hear, since their ears are more sensitive.

Due to the Lavender Tone, at least two-hundred children supposedly committed suicide, and many more developed illnesses and afflictions. The children who committed suicide usually did so by hanging or jumping from heights. Those who did not acted irrationally complained of severe headaches after listening to Lavender Town's theme.

Although Lavender Town now sounds differently depending on the game, this mass hysteria was caused by the first Pokmon game released. After the Lavender Tone incident, the programmers had fixed Lavender Town's theme music to be at a lower frequency, and since children were no longer affected by it.

One video appeared in 2010 using special software" to analyze the audio of Lavender Town's music. When played, the software created images of the Unown near the end of the audio. This raised a controversy, since the Unown didn't appear until the Generation 2 games: Silver, Gold, and Crystal. The Unown translate to "LEAVE NOW".

There is also the said Beta Version of Lavender Town.

It is said that the Beta Version of Pocket Monsters was released to some kids to test the games. This is the video of the Beta Version of Lavender Town: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sOadAaGiq4

this is the story of the day where there was all the blood. a man was walking around and blood started coming out of him everywhere. there was so much blood that it filled up an elevator. he went to the store and there was just blood all over the place! people were slipping in it and they were all grossed out. he tried to go swimming and all of the sharks went nuts adn bittened everybody. he got chased by all the vampires ever. one time the blood got a kid and a dog. at the end of the day everyone decided they would send him to space so that he would stop getting blood everywhere. the scariest part is that the man was you!!! (or he was a lady if you are a lady) and you forgot that this happened.

You forgot to refer to the blood as "hyper-realistic". Also, if the man was me, then who was phone?
