Zoe Elliott-Brown bought the portrait, which features a young girl in a red dress glaring into the distance, from Hastings Advice Representation Centre (HARC) shop in St Leonards-on-Sea.
The owner of a 'cursed' charity shop painting has insisted it has 'enchanting' powers reminiscent of the Lord of the Rings, claiming it has 'transfixed' her mum, who had begged her to buy it.
Bizarrely, the mother and daughter have now said their lives have been turned upside down, with strange events starting to happen soon after they brought the painting home. Then Jayne, 68, began to suffer from hot flushes, turning shaky and having to wear four jumpers to keep warm. 'Any mention of getting rid of it… she got really snappy. It's like some family heirloom she's become protective over. My mum was point blank refusing to get rid of the picture.
'I've got a picture in the house of my mum in it and I stroke her cheek and I did the same to the girl because she just seems unhappy.'There were a few odd things, someone kept tapping on the door and there was nobody there. The following days more strange happenings began to occur - with Zoe coming downstairs one morning to find her mother 'stroking the cheeks' of the painting.
'I didn't clock that it could be anything to do with the picture but then I've never ever been chased by a dark figure in a lightning storm.Determined on ridding herself of the 'curse', Zoe drove back to the charity shop the following morning to return the painting.She warned the charity shop manager to be careful who he sold it to before walking out the store.
