The Monkey's Paw
In one of the early volumes Watanuki is cleaning up the store, he brings everything out of the storehouse to do so. A woman appears and wants something of Yuko's. Its a silver case that must never be opened which holds the Monkey's Paw. However, the girl thinks she can beat the Paw. Unfortunately that isn't the case. The Monkey's Paw is overwhelming and the girl loses to it just like anyone else who had it.

- Idiots don't catch colds.
I think there are more rumours told but I'll have to double check.
