Another user submitted illusion we got today. It's a little different type than previous Audio Illusion, Shepard's Paradox I posted. Be sure to check Mosquite Audio Illusion too! Def Oksbjerre sent us this MP3 file with explanation:

"This one is so amazing. You have to listen to it with headphones. A shaking matchbox is moved around your entire body. It's so realistic!"

    I was home alone and I listened to that post, but I had to stop because it freaked me out! It sounded like someone really was standing behind me shaking a box of matches. I happened on your site (it was on bloggers main page). I've bookmarked it and I will definitely come back OFTEN. Thanks!

    I've heard this before, it's very impressive. They built a microphone which simulates the human head (it looks like one too) and recorded it using this mic. Very clever.

    Wow, that was amazing! It really makes you want to turn around and find the source of the noise.

    It scared me so much, and My brain kept saying "Stranger doing something crazy! RUN!" and I felt like everyone could hear it...I had to take the headphones off to convince myself....and, when it felt it was moving up and down you spine, I got really scared, and my back had this tingling sensation, and my breath got really heavy
