An EMPTY locked safe.

As is tradition.

Expected treasure, but safe contained a live panther; would not buy again.

apologies to XKCD

Empty save for claw marks on the inside, and the creepiest doll you can find.

There was a post on that other site a few years back where someone found a locked safe and posted about it. I wanna say they were asking for advice about how to open it (I'm fuzzy there), but it turned into this whole thing where it felt the whole internet was hanging on a cliff edge, waiting to see what was in it. People were guessing, making bets, giving advice, promising first born etc.

Nothing. There was nothing in it. It was empty the whole time. A little piece of me died that day.
