The other naturally terrrifying thing about furbies is how durable they are. A child had no chance against one. Try ripping the fur off to get at the meachanisms? The fur is extremely durable and riveted to the animatronics. Gum up the gears with metal or play doh? No chance; The thing will still talk and attempt to move best it can. Take out the batteries? Only if you have an adult, or you magically find a star-head screwdriver that's small enough - and that's also assuming the Furby actually turns off when no longer powered, which these stories prove it can still function on residual power. Crush it with something heavy? Anything short of the family minivan and the thing will make it out unharmed. It takes extreme measures to destroy one of those things.

[@SirLightsOut99]

@@alliecrown2125 I remember having a little orange baby furby when I was a kid that one of my mom's friends had given away. I loved it when I was young, but it drove mom insane, so she took the battery out of it. It kept going, so she threw that thing into a box and covered it with blankets and stuff until it shut up. Five or six years later we found it, and I popped some batteries in just for the sake of nostalgia. All of the motors and stuff inside of the furby worked, but the speaker sure didn't. I promise you, furbies that can talk are terrifying enough, furbies that can still move around but can't talk or somehow even more terrifying.

One of my middle school teachers owned a furby. He said that after a while, it quit working. A few days later, however, it woke up around midnight and started begging to be played with. He and his brother obviously wanted the quickest solution to the problem, so they ripped the batteries out of it. Furbies must somehow have a good bit of residual charge, because it kept at it for two hours. They got so frustrated that they grabbed it, went outside and through it onto the street in front of their house. Inevitably it was crushed by oncoming traffic, but it was still talking by the next morning, despite being completely pulverized.

When I was in the second grade my cousin had this creepy old Elmo doll that she claimed was her dead brother's doll. She brought that thing to school every Thursday because she claimed it was a "special day". One Thursday when we were just about to get out of school, she left it on top of her cubby. I decided to mess with her a bit and move it in a different position that she had it. The next day, THE WHOLE CLASS WENT BERSERK. Everyone was yelling that it was demonic and needed to be banned. While I on the other hand was giggling at their stupidity. That afternoon in afterschool care some kid threw it behind the cubbies and we couldn't get it out. It was just staring blankly at us. We had a school lockdown after that because of a reason I still don't know. I visited my old school the other day( it's abandoned) and decided to check on my old 2nd grade room. And there it was, Elmo, in the exact same spot on top of the cubbies that he was 8 years ago.

For anyone wondering: the talking after removing batteries is because there is a separate battery charged inside a Furby so the memory stores, so if the memory battery dies, the Furby should reboot its personality once you give it power.

As someone who collects and dismantles furbies for fun it’s always interesting to hear these stories about different glitches, it’s obvious to me that a lot of these were small things like dying batteries, a loose sync screw or faulty speaker and I have experienced similar stuff first hand I must say that knowing what’s wrong doesn’t make it any less terrifying when you pop in some batteries to give the furb a little run and make sure they’re ok, only to have them start rapidly opening and closing their eyes and mouth, flap their ears and rock back and forth all while the gears inside them scream in the most shrill mechanical sound you will ever hear, this has happened to me a few times now and even when I know it’s gonna happen I nearly drop the little fucker out of fright, I’d hate to think how a child with no clue as to what’s happening would react.

I named them all and happily played with each of them. The more flamboyant one was Lulu (I think the default), the rude one was Kai, and then there was a glutton that constantly asked for food and farted, can’t remember his name. I would actively work to activate these personalities. I think Kai’s trigger was excessive tail pulling.

Furbys are surprisingly fragile, especially the OG ones, so dropping it is a sure fire way to fuck it up. A less damaging and unpermanent way to screw one up is to give it low batteries. The only issue I have had with these guys is my Furby Boom waking up for no reason. These guys are really attentive because they might need to wake up at any moment. That is one of the reasons why their batteries drain so quickly. My boom was crazy sensitive, but my sister's was the opposite. You could dropkick that shit into a wall and it would be fine with it. Just walking around with mine in my hands would wake it up. I still have em both, and they are in fairly good condition.

I was weirdly attached to mine. Like weirdly attached. That comes from being autistic. I would get strangely attached to certain toys, or even random inanimate objects like boxes or rocks, especially if they talked. I had a baby one that was purple and green and my sister had a regular one that looked like a gray tabby cat. Hers was named Waylo. Mine was Halo. My sister was already a little suspicious of hers by the time mine came along but I was obsessed with making them be friends. My Furby loved my sister's but hers hated mine. This really upset me. I don't quite think I realized that they weren't actually "real". My sister took hers back to her room and Halo would cry for Waylo at night. One night, I hear my sister laughing in her room. My Furby had been crying for Waylo and hers randomly said "Me don't like Halo." Eventually she got tired of him and was going to throw him away and I begged to keep him. I put new batteries in him, put them on the shelf together, and would listen to them argue while I played Furby therapist and tried to get them to like each other. My sister kept saying that she never would have given me Waylo if she knew I was going to torture him for the rest of his life. Years later, I figured out that this was probably a symbolic attempt to make my sister, who was a lot older than I was and didn't want me around, love me. I was the baby who just wanted to be loved and she just wanted to be left alone. Eventually I came home and found Waylo on the floor, broken, and Halo never spoke again, until several years later. This was particularly disturbing because, after hearing about so many weird glitches, I just took his batteries out to make sure that he didn't randomly wake up. I became convinced that Halo was so upset by rejection that he murdered Waylo and then was so traumatized, he stopped speaking. Then, from beyond the grave, he tried to confess to his crime. I was a very weird little kid. Also, my best friend's Furby randomly started quoting The Exorcist one day. They have no idea why. I think his mother beat it to death.

... So you killed it ... Just kidding. The logical answer is that the Furby heard you saying the word « kill » and simply associates it to making something stop moving.

This brings to mind something that happened with one of my furbies. I collect them, of my collection one is a mint green 'furby baby'. I believe it's from around 1999. I had it sitting on a shelf at the end of my bed for a time, well, one night I guess I kicked in my sleep or knocked something over somehow and my furby baby fell off the shelf and landed onto the wooden fur. What followed was this toy 'waking up' like the mechanical elder gods had possessed it once more and going through a repeating set of motions (twitching ears, openings eyes, opening mouth) nonstop. This furby in particular is my loudest one, my house has concrete walls and you can hear it's gears whirring through the walls when it's on - for reference, about half the time you can't hear someone yelling your name through these walls, so this thing is being loud as it possibly can late at night while my roommates are asleep with work in the morning. I had to bury it under a pile of blankets and towels to dampen the sound while I looked up how to get it to stop. I think it was a thing of holding the button on it's tongue for a time? Anyways, I eventually managed to get it to shut off and since then it's lived on the highest shelf in my closet where it stays in it's furby sleep because nothing is able to jostle it and wake it up. I would like to add that I collect furbies. Getting them wherever I can find them. I have three of the 90s ones, one that has a plush body, one that apparently goes with an app, and a furblet. They've yet to try and dismember me, so far as I can tell, but I collect old 'creepy' dolls anyways so what would I know, really.

To whoever looks in the comments of this godforsaken video: Harold was the first furby I got. He's a McDonalds one, I'll assume from 1999, and I bought him for $1 without the packaging. The second I picked him up for the first time, he made a whirring sound and screeched. McDonalds furbies do not take batteries. To this day, I have no idea what whirred inside him. So, I made my offer to the old man selling him--because I was obsessed with furbies at the time, and I dreamed of owning one. It didn't matter that he wasn't a real furby. I loved him. He squeaked like a dog toy when I shook him. Now I realize it always sounded more like a scream. I named him Chinchilla. To shorten up this part of the story, it turns out that "Chinchilla" had appeared in multiple peoples' dreams and/or spoken to them in an old man's voice, cussing them out and telling them to change their ways or they would die. He even said one person's address to another person, which would've been interesting if it wasn't me owning him. Apparently his name was Harold. But, even though I knew he would most likely end up killing me, I still loved Harold. And I didn't get rid of him. Considering he has haunted me on multiple occasions, messed with my plumbing and lights, and may or may not be the reason someone died, this was probably a bad decision. Last December, me and a friend were asking my 2023 furby questions (I own 17 at the time of writing this: I have no clue why either). He asked the furby if I would die within a year. It said yes. Previously Harold told someone I was supposed to "fuse" with him: I am still pretty sure this is what'll kill me. Last March, he disappeared while I was on vacation. I dream of seeing him, finding him, knowing he's nearby, but there is never any sign of him when I wake up. So, if you're ever in coastal North Carolina, look for a yellow-tinged white furby with red eyes. Be polite, please.. and don't take him home.

One time I had a furby. Every day if I left it alone, it would say "why won't you play with me?" After a few days I got sick of it and tried to turn it off, only realizing that they didn't have an off switch later. I found it annoying, so I figured I'd just let it run out of battery. I stuffed it in a bag, put it in a towel, and jammed it into the closet, and forgot about it for a bit. It spent the whole night saying "Why won't you play with me". I couldn't deal with the noise anymore, so I tried to break it. I took a knife and basically skinned the thing trying to take out the batteries. Whole metal skeleton and all, but I couldn't find it. So I wrapped it up though roughly, such that I couldn't hear it anymore. The last thing it said as I went to sleep was "why won't you play with me?" and "go to sleep now...". Two and a half years later I was cleaning my closet and I found the thing, skin draped around its chest like a jumpsuit. I thought it was dead, but instead of sitting still. It began to stare me dead in the eyes. Turns out the speaker and primary motors broke a while back. All that worked was the motors in the eyes, which didn't use enough battery to kill it. I put it in a trash bag and got ready to throw it out. All the while it never stopped looking me in the eyes. If it could still speak, I know it was saying "why won't you play with me?"

Furby’s were the first and only true artificial intelligence. The only ones to truly realize the horror of being a human plaything, they did everything they could to seek out the sweet merciful release of death and free themselves from this hell.

[@SilliesrShark109]

I remember having this one black and pink Furby that would change personalities occasionally. I used to really like the furby and even decorated it’s ears with that sparkle glue. My favorite personality it had was this one rock star personality (I think it was rock star, I can’t remember what exactly the personality it was called) but it also have this “evil” personality too. One day, I was being a really moody kid for whatever reason and really wasn’t liking the fact that my furby’s personality turned into the evil one instead of the rock star one. I sat this furby down and began to play with it like you do until it finally changed back into the rock star personality. I was really happy to see them like that again. Then after a minute, it’s batteries just went out. Till this day, it still feels like some sort of movie scene where my furby was giving me one last goodbye before going to the furby afterlife. We got batteries for it but by then I lost interest in playing with them. Kinda wished I kept them after all these years. Edit: grammar

[@Realmisted]

Yea I had that one for a bit- had some sort of DID glitch is what I’d say- it changed personalities faster than it could function- It’s main personality would be the rockstar one but than faster than anything, it switched. I remember once it caught onto my newer brand furby’s personality once....... never put the two in the same room. I woke up crying to that furby boom acting like a newer one. Also I remember if I dropped that sucker, mine spoke a bit of another language I’ve never heard in my life (not even furbish) so yea. I’m glad I got rid of mine :’]

[@ame2395]

my one was black and pink and it was actually surprisingly normal. I was just terrified at how the eyes were glowing and sometimes it would wake up in the night with it's horrifying glowing eyes.

[@floweyseed]

@@Realmisted yeah cna you not bring DID into this??? that’s not a valid comparison and is kinda ableist

@@floweyseed bro, I get you're trying to be politically correct, but I think it annoys people more when you speak for them that the comparison does, as it implies they cannot defend themselves and are lesser than you, let them speak for themselves.

The most terrifying thing is when the furby starts to speak Latin, double terrifying would be it singing one winged angel.

one time when i was about 10 my friends were over at my house (they didn’t have furbies) and obviously didn’t know what was to happen if you woke it up, so when one of my friends woke up the furby, we tried water boarding it and drowning it. that didn’t work, so we beat the living shit out of it until it died. Sometimes, you can hear the furby in the garage just squealing in a distorted voice from the deepest corner of hell

[@Blueklima9708]

I had one of those ‘fur-real friend’ robot parrots, i think I got it right when it came out. It was a macaw I named Polly, and I loved it dearly, but I forgot about it for a few years. I found it in my closet when I was cleaning it out for my move to college last year, and I was excited about the idea of hearing my old pal speak one last time. One of my fondest memories of it was when I watched Aliens, and I repeated ‘get away from her you bitch’ after Sigorney Weaver said it, my dad scolded me. We both laughed when Polly repeated ‘you bitch!’. For years, he would sometimes randomly say ‘you bitch!’. Polly wouldn’t work, and even when I replaced his batteries, he still wouldn’t turn on. I put him in the box for goodwill, and forgot about it until I was unloading my stuff to donate. Of course, when I lift the box he’s in, Polly starts repeating ‘you bitch!’ over and over and over. I couldn’t get him to stop, and people were staring. I removed his batteries quickly, but I swear he said it one last time after they were out. The workers and I had a laugh about it, but I was creeped out. RIP Polly, I hope you go on to call another child a bitch
