That, would scare me shitless. Real or not.
When the guy killed them and himself, it was reported I think.
Another time was with my brother. We use to live in this giant building with a giant garage in the bottom and the house like a couple of feet at the top. My brothers bed was by the window and he use to see these little skeleton animals in the trashcan in the alley.
The one he saw and came into our room was a skeleton dog. I was only like 4 so I don't remember much lol.
