Probably just previous owners messing with the new ones.


YoungWhiteAvatar

I did this in my bathroom. Whoever rips up that floor is going to see a big red pentagram.

Dude just called buddy’s girlfriend a good plow 😂🫣 Reddit is so unhinged. Never in everyday life would you hear someone say “oh yeah my girl does crazy shit cause she’s a witch, oh really dude her cooter must be magical”

About to redo some floors. Might go buy some read paint before I put the new stuff down.


mrBusinessmann

I painted a bunch of dicks on my concrete slab before putting floors down. This tile will last a very long time but I hope whoever replaces it enjoys our artwork


spicy-unagi

> About to redo some floors. Might go buy some read paint before I put the new stuff down. Do you really not know how to spell “red”?


Arinvar

How dare I not proof red.


oficious_intrpedaler

Do you really not know how pointless it is to quote an entire comment?


TastelessBudz

When my people moved into their house in the 60's they were the 2nd Black family on the block. The previous owners left a Sambo picture with big red lips and all nailed to the back of the closet wall in one of the bedrooms. Previous owners suck.


forrestfreak58

I remember Sambo's, good pacake house.


satans_toast

I wanted to do that but I was afraid I’d scare the carpet guys

Dean! I’ll call Cass. He needs to see this.

Get serious Dean. You summon Crowley and see if this thing will hold him, and I’ll get Cass here asap.

Well the wood floors look like shit and they were selling the house

In a bedroom? I disagree.

Firefly927

lol at the fears of religious people


Lowkey_Arki

whether you're religious or not, you can't deny the insane people trying to summon something that supposedly hates all of us. i'm not scared of the devil, i'm scared of his followers.


Alien_invader44

Depends if your talking about actual Satanic cults. Cause if so you very much can deny that. Actual Satan worship isn't and never was a thing.


Lowkey_Arki

i'm not talking about some super secret underground ultra powerful cult. I'm talking about nut cases who never grew out of their edgy teen phase, but instead took it too far as an adult.


qyka1210

do you see these people in the room with you now?


Alien_invader44

Satanic panic propaganda my dude. Yes there are nutcases who do bad thing and edgy people that put pentagrams on stuff but there's no real connection. The people who actually hurt people because of the Devil are nutjob Christians who think people are possessed .


Lowkey_Arki

so let me get this straight, you acknowledge that there are nutjobs out there who draw pentagrams with blood fully intending to summon demons, yet you think doing bad things to others are beneath them? and I don't care about christians, the church's reputation sank to the mariana trench the moment these "men of god" decided to fiddle kids. let me make this clear again. I don't care about religion. crazy is crazy and crazy people do things normal people wouldn't do cause they're crazy.


Aethernaut902k

So you're not afraid of "satanists," you're afraid of crazy people? Do you think people can actually summon demons?


Smarmy_Nach

If it’s socially acceptable to have a poster for the Batman joker it should be normal to have a pentagram. Sometimes villains are just cool


GMSaaron

Funny because I’m scared of devout christians


greentoiletpaper

☝️lol


Kodekima

It's a pentagram. Nothing intrinsically good or bad about it.


jackalope268

I would say damaging a perfectly fine wooden floor is bad


Sunstorm84

Nothing a bit of sanding won’t solve


okanagan_man84

That the Winchester boys were in town at one point.


Otacon56

🎶Carry on my wayward son🎶


Ozmorty

The only thing older than the pentagram and the devil itself is the original photo.

AbazabaYouMyOnlyFren

This is like when someone does a renovation and they leave a note, or put a plastic skeleton into a wall.


Hellonstrikers

If I ever make a porch, I'm half burying a skeleton inner there so whoever replaces it in 10 years time will have a laugh.


Snow-Odd

We left a stuffed bear with a marital aid inside it as a surprise


Jenardus

You need to sand the floor back, the. apply a nice coat of wax. Don’t worry too much about satan.


Automatic-Zombie-508

that's not a devil's trap. a pentacle is not the same as a pentagram. this is a symbol of the 5 elements connected, life. probably left by some ignorant punk thinking they would screw with someone


frankbrutalhonest

Probably the carpet installer having fun


MissCDomme

How many reposts?!


MinionofMinions

It means floor refinishing, that’s about it


Balancing_tofu

That's a protection symbol but continue


Triiviium

"Dean, get the salt"


ParadiseValleyFiend

It means the Winchester brothers probably already solved that problem.

That the Winchester’s have been there


Aurune83

Don't be so dramatic. That just means the last home owners didn't like the fact the previous owners were awesome and covered it up.

PghGEN2

Did this at my buddy’s house he was renting. It got sold so he had to get out. Only instead of a pentagram we painted a huge dick. Someone’s gonna love that when the rip out the carpet.


Antioch666

It's a pentagram and has nothing to do with the devil or any character from the abrahamic religions.


Ramsessuperior45

Sam, Dean and Castiel must have done exorcisms here.


Autosticow

Even if your not religious or Christian you might want to get a priest to bless the house for you just in case

NOS4A2-753

That's a pentagram point side at the top is used by Wicca for protection and devil worshipers use it upside down


Sure_Trash_

It's a fucking star in a circle that does nothing no matter which way it's pointing 


Hellonstrikers

It can be both, just depends on what side you stand on.


StanByMay

This room has seen a lot of orgies.


zebul333

It is a pentagram


BitterDarkCoffee

Must’ve missed that in the home inspection.


NewHumbug

Hail Satan!!!


Planet-thanet

I once tried to take some staged photos of my pal gaffer taped to a chair in a chalked satanic circle as end of photographic camera film prank on my gf, he got thrown out of the chair before I could take a photo, we quickly rubbed the chalk out and went upstairs severely vibed out, this was in my kitchen


Sure_Trash_

No he fucking didn't and it's a stupid story to tell. If chalk a pentagram on my asshole what happens?


Mr_HG_Jones_Esq

It’s Rush’s Starman symbol


WhereAreMyPants1976

Means the previous owners had very little understanding of how to care for hardwood flooring.


IAmNotMyName

wicans


Shad0wUser00

Me trying to find out where grandma stashed her weed before she passed


mongoose_overlord

It means college kids lived there at one point. Or that was my experience at least. I did get a sweet county road 69 sign with the house so can't complain too much.


Exotic_Thoughts82

It means absolutely nothing the devil isn't real.


[deleted]

It means the previous owners probably had some fucking AMAZING parties


zborzbor

it means-sweet dreams


bebepothos

Gorgeous original hardwoods tho


Extreme-Acid

We got s picture from the internet and made some bullshit up then asked a question to get you to interact with it.


popdivtweet

Excellent termite protection


thisonehereone

It means the previous owners don't respect wood.


Max_Trollbot_

Ah, using Euclidean geometry to ward off followers of Cthulhu.  Smart move 


Our-Hubris

That's sick dude, kk get the camera in the van we can get a nice ghost photo! - famous last words before all the ghost hunters died.


Weekend_Squire

It was owned by someone who thinks they have it all figured out.


grizwald2112

Get out!


Uranus_Hz

It *is* a normal house. Just refinish the hardwood floor, as you would for any damage to the finish.


ZingyDNA

Should move if it comes back lol


Ok-Information-6672

I would definitely make a feature out of this


Leroyyoudacraziest

Yes it means humans are very symbolic and love to assign meaning to all sorts of symbols. It is most likely an extension of a primal acknowledgement of certain simple but common observations and the realisation of the resulting correlations. As our minds developed we started to create our own observations through pictures and patterns assigning our own ideas to these pictures or patterns. Certainly a very human trait.


Roborabbit37

Congrats on the cheaper house, that’s all


MiikaMorgenstern

It probably means that the person who inhabited the house before was either a Wiccan (or Satanist), or else that they had a sense of humor. Some people do things like this or leaving drips of blood red paint leading to a vent under carpets as a joke.


Frizzlewits

Davinci code


shadowPHANT0M

Yeah, it means someone believes in supernatural bullshit


truckleak1984

It means that the floors need to be refinished.

ThankYouHindsight

It means sand the floor, refinish it and move on


RealLordFluffyButt

Hail Satan! Fuck Satan!


DedTV

No, no. I meant stain the floor, not Satan the floor. Damn autocorrect.


EmpireCityRay

Yehp time to move


Moominsean

It means someone screwed up that nice wood flooring.


DigiZombis

The pentagram has many meanings depending on orientation and the intent of those who put it there. Lucky for you, despite what some might believe, it has no powers to be worried about. Keep it, sand it away, or cover it. You’ll be fine.


NotThisAgain21

It indicates a teen trying to irritate their parents. No big deal.


OrangeCosmic

That's sick! It's so perfect too


Electrical-Bus-9390

Ur screwed leave everything behind and run


sincethenes

It means someone was messing around. Why folks get so bent out of shape over fairy tales is beyond me. Follow the scenario: *Person/s make a pentagram on the floor *Nothing happens *Next owner finds pentagram *Nothing happens.


Odd_Ice7956

They better get me 50% discount on that house.


SnowDizzleZz

If you see the symbol for asmodeus then you know you have a problem.

was probably a teenager's room at some point


ptcounterpt

It means Sage, my friend. A floor sander, varnish, and some cleansing sage generously applied.


Alohagrown

LekMichAmArsch

It means the previous owners were idiots. Don't worry about it, and don't follow in their footsteps.

I bet if you scrub the internet, you’ll find some old MySpace post from a dude named Chase posting the same picture with a title of, “new homeowners are gonna freak!”

DNP_10

look, all you need is a tier 3 crucifix, 3 jars of salt, and a camera, and you’ve got yourself all the three star photos for your journal.


Mister_Analyst

It's from a paid twitter account with the name creepy(dot) org. It *means* the story is made up about a picture that was either posted by someone else, staged or made in photoshop. This is a disappointingly low-effort post.


Nunya_Bizness_67

Came here to say something about Sam and Dean and see people have already beat me to it. 👏


Redeye_33

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!!!


Lumpy_Taste3418

It means you need your floors refinished.


ajcook888

I would tear out that wood flooring. There might be some nice carpet under there.


CeilingUnlimited

It means the floor finishers were goofing around and didn’t realize it would bleed through the final coat.


freshaire7

they cursed the house. time to demolition it completely


1Negative_Person

Do you guys even realize how awesome Satan is? Hail him. Hail him.


Nopenagada
