“The dead roam the streets–to keep the living safe!”
Curves are flattening fattening worldwide but we’ve all got to remain vigilant against resurgences. Politicians and communities are struggling to keep populations homebound as the temptation to leave homes becomes, for many, too hard to resist. One village in Indonesia has gotten creative in their efforts. Inside Edition reports:
“Stay-at-home recommendations are getting some supernatural enforcement in Indonesia. Volunteers dressed as ‘shroud ghosts’ are haunting the streets, encouraging people to stay at home. The specters in white sheets are meant to resemble bodies cloaked in burial sheets. White face makeup completes the look. Researchers say Indonesia could see massive Coronavirus infection numbers if social distancing guidelines are not observed.”
Give the “ghosts” a look in the video embedded at the top of the article. There’s more footage below.
Maybe American communities should employ the likes of Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, and Freddy Krueger to scare folks inside! What do you think? Let us know in the comments below or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram! You can also carry on the convo with me personally on Twitter @josh_millican.
