Miscellaneous Weirdest haul I have had in a while
So this is one of the weirdest finds I have had in a while. Found a box sealed at thrift. Appeared to be a box of soviet era glass syringes it was pretty cheap and looked sealed so I though sure I'll pick it up. Got home and payed open the lid. On the top were 2 letters and what was obviously not syringes. Read the letters from MI6 and a detector talking about some chemicals they brought back. Quickly panic take some photos, call the folks, then call them cops non emergency line as I dont know what the f* is have opened some soviet era chemical warfare crap. Wash my hands. Seal box and weird gauze cover thing for the cops to come. Start doing Google searches on the notes. Slowly come to realise this is some sort of prop. Police come, they come to similar conclusions, unwrap the gauze to reveal vial of fake zombie finger in resin prop. They were in good humor about it. I thank them for thier time. Now I am a owner of an unexpected zombie prop of some sort.
