Freaky gnome stalks streets of Argentina

Petrified locals in the Argentine town of General Guemes are living in fear inside their homes at night after a string of sightings involving a mysterious and highly freaky ‘creature’ resembling a gnome.

”No joke” : Local teenager Jose Alvarez filmed the “gnome” on his phone when he was hanging with his friends in a poorly lit street in the town. He said that it wears a pointy hat and walks sideways like a crab.

“Suddenly we heard something - a weird noise as if someone was throwing stones,” Mr Alvarez was quoted in London’s Sun Newspaper.

“We looked to one side and saw that the grass was moving.

“To begin with we thought it was a dog but when we saw this gnome-like figure begin to emerge we were really afraid.”

Interestingly, the video cuts as soon as the teens let out a deep shreak when realizing what they are seeing. The report appearing in the Sun newspaper does not stipulate what the teens did in the aftermath.
