Technically it’s not a Pac-Man ghost, but we’re calling close enough on this Japanese pen that features a built-in ghost stamp.
From the product page:
The design updates the ancient tradition of hanko (a personal seal used for official documents) by combining it with a modern ergonomic writing instrument. Conceived by the renowned Naoto Fukasawa for Shachihata, the world’s leading stamp producer, the pen is brilliantly lacquered, flawlessly detailed, and perfectly balanced.

I used to have a teacher who would spend all day spinning a chained fingernail clipper around his finger. The only time he would stop is when he was actually using it in class. It’s too bad this 360° Pen didn’t exist at that point, as it would have made a great “Please… Stop” gift. Plus he could have used it to assign me another “F”.

These pens will make a ventriloquist out of anyone. The pen can record your voice, and when played back the animal’s mouth will move in synch with the words. All you have to do is stand there like you are trying not to move your lips and let your witty words coming from the animal’s mouths amuse everyone around you. Just be sure you have a good monologue, this technology does not lend itself to improvising.

The Voodoo Pen Holder is not quite as frightening as the Voodoo Knife Holder, but you may have a tough time convincing your HR rep that you have a good reason to keep a set of sharp knives in your cube. Even without the knives, this Voodoo holder should give anyone who is thinking about stealing a pen good reason to prey on someone other than you. Whether they are afraid of a possible Voodoo curse or the mental image of a pen through their head gives them the idea you get violent if your stuff gets stolen, it should push potential thieves to look elsewhere in their search for a proper victim. The holder comes complete with six pens and the stab wounds to hold them.
