Yo, Prospect Park: Stephen King Is Calling, and He Wants His Creepy, Mysterious Animal Butchery Storyline Back

photo: Brooklyn PaperChicken heads, necks, and bloody piles of entrails....its just another beautiful day at Prospect Park.

Some freaky deaky shit is apparently going down in our lovely park, and no one knows who (or what) is responsible. But lately its been looking a hell of a lot like a Pet Cemetary...or a ritualistic crime scene.

And someone(thing) keeps piling all the guts and gore up in pretty much the exact same spot in the SW corner of the park near the lakebed:

“Everybody wants to feed the ducks, and there are chicken heads floating around. They need to come and rake this stuff out.” “Maybe [the intestines] could be left over from a voodoo or Santeria ritual?” said another park goer.

AYFKMWTS?

Dub tee eff, people?

I was so, so , so happy to see this Daily News story about Sugar finally being reunited with her family!

After all this ransom B.S. some dude found her tied to a bush in Prospect park.

Whatver, we're just glad the bitch is back!

Yay!

Watch Out, or Your Bitch Might Get A Ticket

This just in from FIDO:

"In response to 'supposed' repeated complaints to 311; the parks department has sent forth its enforcement arm to ticket anyone off-leash, beginning at 9:01 am!

On Monday, January 11th, several people in the Long Meadow got tickets immediately after off-leash hours expired from enforcement on foot. So be warned..."

I assume they mean any DOG off leash at 9:01, rather than anyone, but you never can be too safe!

The picture above is an *actual* photo of our dog Oliver in Prospect Park Friday morn...without his leash on. Like FOR REAL.

[Deep breaths. Deep breaths].

This might not seem like a big deal to you, but trust me: it totally fucking is.
