tl;dr this woman was hearing creepy phantom nursery rhymes every night and it turned out to be a local industrial building’s alarm system, being triggered by spiders on the motion detectors
which is all well and good but “we investigated the creepy nursery rhymes, and it turns out it’s spiders” is one hell of a true statement
You left out the best part!
The alarm was at some kind of industrial building, and is apparently SUPPOSED to play creepy nursery rhymes, to deter criminals from breaking in in the middle of the night! It was just turned up too loud, and too sensitive, so it was being triggered by spiders.
That’s some creative theft-deterrent there. If you’re breaking in to a place, you kind of expect to hear a burglar alarm. You’re prepared for that, and you’re prepared to grab and go once it goes off.
But if you hear a creepy kid’s voice singing nursery rhymes at a seemingly abandoned industrial building in the middle of the night, you’re going to shit your pants and get the fuck out, in that order.
Give the guy who thought that up a promotion.
holy shit thay video is terrifying i should not have watched that alone
@copperbadge This seems right up your alley. For the retelling anyway.
I have to admit I had seen the headline several times but figured it was some kind of clickbait because what kind of alarm system plays nursery rhymes, but now I understand THE BEST KIND 😀
Animated roast animals. Chickens, pigs, all the way up to cows. The entire animal, roasted whole, moving around and acting normally. You can walk up to one with a knife and carve off hunks of meat, and they don’t care at all. The core of the body is nearly impossible to destroy, and, as long as you don’t do something extreme like strike one with lightning, they stay perfectly animate and continuing to feed and replenish any meat that’s taken. The meat doesn’t go bad or get dirty, and, if you want to change its seasoning, you feed the animal the seasoning you want it to taste like, with a very minor spell on it to get the taste to stay.
Basically, you can keep, like, a small flock of zombie chickens, and occasionally you go out with a carving knife, feed them treats, and cut off your dinner for that day. It’s strange to get used to, cutting hunks off a living, moving thing, but they really do not care. They probably work like sheep and wool, where if you don’t cut pieces off now and then it grows too much and they get kinda bad at walking.
I’ve been posting weekly photo-fiction to my new tumblr, The Shortest Story, and I thought I’d share some of my favorites so far. If you enjoy this, consider reblogging or following on Tumblr, Facebook, Tapas or Instagram!
