Oh yeah, we all get annoyed when we can't view what we want to see on the net because its server is being configured or you typed in the wrong letter or numerical code or it's simply playing tricks on you. Whatever the reason, they wouldn't tell you why, instead there are these websites that has creative 404 page to entertain you and somehow delay your boiling point.

Speaking of tricks, this is actually an effective way to tease and entice viewers to stay around or come back to their website because it draws interest and curiosity. My first encounter with a creative 404 page is in wulffmorgenthaler and almost every minute I would come back to check if the page is working already. lol

I found a gallery collection of creative 404 pages in Smashing Magazine:
