Have Ghost<\/strong> accidentally hexed an NBA franchise? According to at least one employee at Orlando’s Kia Center, the answer might be yes\u2026 or definitely yes, if you believe this one person on the Internet. Not me, this other person.<\/p>\n

In a moment that feels ripped straight from the ’80s-era Satanic Panic, a now-deleted Reddit post has gone viral after proposing that the Orlando Magic’s recent struggles could be traced back to a concert by Tobias Forge<\/strong>\u2013led theatrical metal giants Ghost<\/strong>, who played the arena earlier that week.<\/p>\n

The post surfaced shortly after the Magic suffered a home loss to the Charlotte Hornets on January 22, and while it didn’t last long on Reddit, it was quickly preserved and shared by The Noise<\/em> on social media.<\/p>\n

Teased with the headline “Kia Center Needs Holy Water,” the anonymous author claimed to work at the venue and expressed frustration not just with the team’s performance, but with the lingering effects of Ghost<\/strong>‘s show.<\/p>\n

“So I work at Kia,” the post read. “The night before we got blown out by Charlotte there was a concert there by this rock band called Ghost<\/strong> & I’m not even exaggerating super satanic vibes.”<\/p>\n

The employee went on to describe the concert’s visuals in less-than-enthusiastic terms, citing “devil imagery, stained-glass church setup, chanting ‘Lucifer,’ all types of weird shit I’m not into at all.” They added, “I was mad as hell I was forced to sit through that lol.”<\/p>\n

From there, the theory took a sharp turn into sports-mysticism territory. As if this wasn’t ridiculous enough: “So my theory is that whatever energy they left in the building carried over into the game because there’s no other explanation for how bad we looked,” the author continued. “Is this a valid excuse or are we just inconsistent af?”<\/p>\n

While Ghost<\/strong> themselves have yet to comment on their alleged new career as NBA curse-bringers, they don’t need to. You know they cursed that stadium. What a bunch of bastards. Go see Ghost curse some other shit on tour. Get your tickets here.<\/p>\n
