the problem with these urban fears is that since they seem to spew from the mouths of COs and the like, they are never in writing and therefore, according to JW apologists like the ones here now, must be horrible apostate lies from Satan.

...and even if true, it's just isolated incidents involving imperfect men. Sheesh... when any other church has an isolated incident involving imperfect men, they're the first to point out how bad that religion is for producing such fruits.
I remember hearing that a child was beaten by smurfs that came alive from the wallpaper.
I thought " This is pretty smurfed up"
I didn't believe in the rumor, but many during service talked about how dangerous Satan is....... Smurfs???
I'm 46, and remember hearing that story when I was 12 or 13....been around a long long long time!
But then, maybe the same smurf keeps getting dragged to a meeting, and keeps running out!
When I was little, I was not allowed to have any smurfs or watch their TV show because apparently Satan used them as tools. I also remember hearing a story about a unicorn poster that came alive and attacked a child or something like that. Needless to say, we couldn't play with those either. (It's no wonder I was so afraid of the dark! There was a time when they focused so much on the demons coming in to homes via TV shows, furniture, cd's, books...) And then came the Furby (Furbie??) era, and from the platform we were warned of those too...
O-kay... I can't believe that "Smurf walking out of the KH" story is true... Even a really demonized toy wouldn't have THAT much energy - or range!!
Waitasec... Maybe it was a MECHANICAL smurf!!

Yeah I heard the same thing.....seems Jehovahs "active force" is powerless on these evil smurfs! The brothers burnt the Kingdom hall to the ground and threw it's ashes in the Murry River!! LOL.
My Mom gave me a stuffed Papa Smurf doll. I guess she hadn't been warned about the dangers of Smurfs. I still have it. Kind of looks like this:
