Dybbuk Box

The Dybbuk box, or Dibbuk box, is a paranormal hoax consisting of an antique wine-cabinet claimed to be haunted by a dybbuk, a concept from Judaism. The box gained notoriety when it was auctioned off on eBay by owner Kevin Mannis, who created a story featuring Jewish Holocaust survivors and paranormal claims as part of his eBay item description. Mannis' story was the inspiration for the 2012 horror film The Possession. In 2021, Mannis told Input magazine that the Dybbuk Box story was entirely fictional.
