Strange Things Happened at Halloween
The emergency number in the UK is 999, but on Halloween this year it wasn't only being used for
the Police, fire and ambulance services.
The British police have reported many calls about ghosts, witches and werewolves.
In one call, a woman rang police to complain her partner was trying to put a spell on her using
witchcraft.
A man dialled 999 to say he was being poisoned by a satellite controlled by witches, while a boy
rang up to say he was himself a wizard.
A taxi driver complained that his wife was a werewolf, and a man called police to ask for the
Ghostbusters because there was ‘something strange in the neighbourhood’.
The police have promised to keep a closer eye on supernatural reports in the future.
