World of Warcraft: Corrupted Blood Plague:

This was a cruel little prank that was implemented on purpose when Blizzard released this boss. You may be unfamiliar with this little trick that was played when WoW had a new boss introduced to the game. It had an attack that poisoned anyone who happened to be unlucky enough to be standing the creature. What Blizzard also did was make this poisoning spell contagious.
