Most 'creepy' Storage Wars find ever was worth $6,000

People are flocking to social media in horror over one of Storage Wars' Barry Weiss' 'best' but 'creepy' finds.

Professional storage-treasure hunter Barry Weiss once spotted an unusual wooden statue on an episode of Storage Wars and quickly nabbed it, much to viewers' horror when they finally saw exactly what it looked like.

While it may not be the most expensive find ever discovered on the A&E reality programme, it's worth a whole lot more than it first looks. Whether you'd pay for it, or even put it up in your own house, is up for debate - take a look for yourself:

Before even entering into the storage container, Weiss peers through immediately interested in the object, questioning what he can see poking out of a box.

He says: " I can only see somebody's mouth that's open, with teeth.

"And that's all you can see, but I want it."

And just wait until you see what the object turned out to be.

Barry Weiss caught sight of the object poking out the side of a wooden box.

Bringing the item out of the storage locker, Weiss resolves the piece has 'got to be a one-of-a-kind'.

"The teeth appear to be actually really dentures. They're real glass eyes," he says. "Look at this, there's a whole scene going on in this guy's head. This is something real special."

While we certainly hope the wooden head is one-of-a-kind - given how terrifying it is - Weiss ultimately made the right call in picking it.

The storage hunter later found out it's worth a whopping $6,000 (£4,700) 'and maybe more' - Weiss having paid a mere $1,525 (£1,202) to win the bidding on the piece of art by Mike Medow.

However, rather than selling it, Weiss decides to hold onto the wooden head, baffling viewers.

One YouTube user wrote: "It may be special but it's still too creepy. I would freak out if I saw it in the dark while walking through my house."

"One of my favourite episodes in the series. That head is one of the eeriest objects I've ever SEEN!" Another added.

A third commented: "Okay that thing is creepy AF."

And a final resolved: "I can never unsee that."

It gets even creepier if you look at the window in the back of the head.

Others flooded to the clip from season two episode five dubbing Weiss as one of their firm favourites on the show.

"Barry was the best 'player' I miss him," a user said.

A second wrote: "BARRY is my favourite from Storage Wars."

Another commented: "WE MISS YOU BARRY."
