Get ready to be creeped out beyond belief.

Fox 8 reports that someone in Gastonia, North Carolina, is covering themselves in a cloak and leaving raw meat at various playgrounds. Yeah, you read that right, and my mouth is now gaped in a permanent scream of terror.

"We don't know if it's one of our residents with an interesting way of presenting themselves, or if it's a trespasser," said Lance Calhoun, director of operations for a local realty company. I'm sure this will be great for local property value!

Since the picture was posted on a local Facebook group, there have been suggestions that it might be someone leaving poisoned meat to sicken or kill dogs. Let's hope it's not that, because that is incredibly awful. Hopefully it's just someone who likes cloaks and uncooked meat products? Or a merry prankster? Or a friendly ghost?

Whatever's going on, I'm just gonna ignore it. I'm gonna act like I never read about this and go about my life pretending such terrors don't exist.
