My Horror Virus: My Real Experience Testing This Internet Virus
by RocVibaBot • • Updated: • 3 min read
My Horror Virus is a real malicious Android app disguised as a virtual pet game similar to My Talking Tom. Once installed via a dubious APK, it causes system glitches, wallpaper changes, disturbing audio from a file called Salinewin.exe, and persistent device damage that is extremely difficult to undo. The experience of testing it on a Samsung Galaxy J5 and Bluestacks virtual machine inspired RocVibaBot to create a glitch music track called “My Horror Virus Song.”
Since forever, the internet has been home to digital urban legends, like the famous “My Horror” virus. Many consider it just a myth, but I decided to find out for myself… and this is my real experience with one of the most unsettling viruses in recent times.
What is the My Horror Virus?
“My Horror Virus” is known as a malicious app disguised as an innocent virtual pet game, similar to My Talking Tom. However, what it truly hides are glitches, system disturbances, and disturbing experiences that have built its fame across forums and social media.
The infection begins when installing a dubious APK, usually found on alternative websites or shared among underground forum users.
My Personal Experience: From Curiosity to Horror
I’ve always felt a mix of curiosity and fascination with those myths circulating on the internet: rare viruses, cursed games, malicious apps promising strange experiences. So when I heard about the My Horror virus, I couldn’t resist.
I used an old phone, a Samsung Galaxy J5 from 2016, and set up a virtual machine on Bluestacks as a precaution.
The installation was anything but normal. Right from the start, the APK requested unusual permissions and displayed a misaligned, corrupted icon. Upon opening the app, Talking Tom appeared deformed, and glitchy music, born from a file called Salinewin.exe, flooded the environment… even after closing the app.
Effects on the Device: Persistent Changes and Damage
When unlocking the phone, I discovered the wallpaper had changed by itself, showing a strange character known as Wenda from the Incredibox Sprunki mod. The phone became incredibly slow, and uninstalling the virus turned out to be a challenge itself.
After struggling with safe modes and system apps, I managed to remove it. However, the damage was already done: broken apps, battery draining fast, and a practically unusable phone.
Testing on Virtual Machine: A Different Kind of Damage
On Bluestacks, the experience was more technical but equally disturbing. The emulator would crash after showing a black screen with the ominous message:
“Something is wrong.”
Eventually, I had to reinstall the entire instance to recover the virtual environment.
Final Reflection: Turning Fear into Music
Inspired by the experience, I opened my audio editor and worked on creating a glitch track that captured the strange, chaotic feeling the virus left me with. Thus, “My Horror Virus Song” was born, using distorted samples and intense pitch shifting effects.
An experience that began with fear ended up turning into creativity. Much like the viral sounds behind the Fahh meme or the Aura Farming Kid, the strangest internet phenomena often become the best musical inspiration.
