In August, homeowners in Henrico, Virginia, woke to find that old televisions had been left on their porches in the night. The eerie delivery only got creepier when home security footage revealed that they’d been delivered by an ominous visitor: the man was wearing a navy jumpsuit and gloves, and masked his face with what appeared to be an actual TV. Before leaving, he turned to the security cameras and waved. Police have collected 52 TVs but are still baffled as to what the motive might have been. |
