An American man identified as Tom Reynolds has expressly regretted exploring artefacts from the séance store in Brooklyn, New York after an item he bought forced him to abandon his home.

He bought a scrying mirror which is believed to be used in the occult for predicting the future, however, the event that followed his purchase is one that he never foresaw.

Tom who has a black cat, hung his new black mirror on the wall, with the expectation that it will help him become somewhat of a seer.

Unfortunately, he walked in on the cat standing on its legs and staring into the mirror while making some gesticulations.

This scared him and forced him to move to his friend’s place, leaving his cat and the occult mirror behind.

His friend, Matthew Begbie shared the story online along with a photo Tom took before abandoning his house.

According to Matthew, his friend is currently house hunting and wishes to sell off his former house.
