Halloween Party Mixup!

If you plan to dress up and drink - watch out!

A guy in Germany dressed up, drank and passed out on a train in Germany. In an area that doesnt know much about Halloween. That's when other passengers spotted the man, and thought he'd been murdered!

Here's the story from Reuters.com:

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 Monday.

Believing his hands and face were smeared with blood, passengers alerted police after getting no response from him.

A first aid team called to the scene soon cleared up the confusion. Police told the man to remove his make-up after which he was allowed to continue his journey.

"Bad Segeberg is in a rural area and Halloween isn't very well known there," police spokeswoman Silke Tobies said. "So people weren't expecting anyone to be dressed up in the train."
