Ok, 2022 needs to stop.

We still in the midst of a global pandemic, we're on the brink of a third world war, and now this: an ancient Japanese "killing stone" has cracked open, supposedly releasing an evil demon that has been locked away for 1,000 years.


According to ancient mythology, the volanic rock, officially called Sessho-seki, is home to Tamomo-No-Mae, aka the Nine-Tailed Fox, and anyone who comes into contact with it will die!

The rock is located in the mountainous northern region of Tochigi, near Tokyo, and though the rock is something of a tourist hotspot, according to the NY Post now visitors are fearful.

Another person wrote, "Here I thought 2022 couldn't get worse. Now a furious Japanese spirit is freed from its 'killing stone.'"

Officials are now mulling over what to do with the rock's remains, and could possibly attempt to restore it.
