How does an empty cable become Haunted by the Ghost of a Decapitated Keyboard?
It's very simple. You start on a Full Moon.
Then you take an ordinary USB keyboard and plug it into a computer with the date and time set to 6:66pm on October 31st. Now comes the hard part.
While loading up a text by H.P. Lovecraft, you must suddenly unplug the USB keyboard while invoking the name of HID (the many-tentacled elder god of corrupted device drivers) exactly at the stroke of midnight.
Then precisely at the moment the connection is broken but before the keyboard loses all power, you must decapitate the keyboard by cutting through the cable - preferably with a rusted multitool, but a mail-order ceremonial dagger is acceptable. Don't worry about making a clean cut. In fact, the messier the better.
The ghost of the keyboard becomes trapped inside the cable at the moment of "death", causing it to forevermore haunt aNY MACHINE iT is co nnected to with phANTOm keyb oard signals...

And that is how a Haunted USB Cable is made!
