Halloween Zombie Mistaken For Murder Victim
Passengers on a German train mistook a Halloween reveler dressed up as a gore-covered zombie for a murder victim and called the police.
The 24-year-old man fell into a drunken slumber on his way home from a Halloween party in Hamburg, police in the northern town of Bad Segeberg said on Monday.

Traffic stop yields embalmed heads
On the face of it, the truck full of human heads could have been a Halloween prank or the makings of a scary movie.
It turned out to be neither, and a reminder that you should keep your wits about you when you donate your body to science.
"This is in the top five of the strangest things – maybe the strangest – that I've ever encountered," Hunt County Justice of the Peace Aaron Williams said. Judge Williams was called to the scene when a regular traffic stop on Sunday morning by Royse City police turned into a grisly discovery of severed heads in the back of a tractor-trailer.
Police said the truck driver was pulled over for speeding about 2:30 a.m. on Interstate 30 at the Hunt County line. Because he was acting suspiciously, officers looked in the back and saw about two dozen embalmed human heads staring back at them from plastic bags and containers.
The driver couldn't produce documentation showing why he was hauling the heads, so police detained him until his company – which authorities would not name – faxed over the paperwork.
The heads were specimens used in medical training in Fort Worth and were headed back to a company in Little Rock, Royse City police Lt. Jim Baker said. The driver and his heads were allowed to go about 10:30 a.m.
