Tantalus curse


from tantalus, the greek mortal cursed in tartaurus to spend all eternity in a pool of water with fruit branches overhead, but never being able to reach them to take a bite to eat or drink.

used to describe a purpetual streak of bad luck, usually characterized by a sudden upsurge of good fortune that ultimately turns sour when the ‘cursed’ party goes to secure it.
