Cops hunt for person wearing creepy 17th-century plague doctor costume

Cops in the English village of Hellesdon are hunting for an unidentified individual who’s been creeping out locals by lurking around town while dressed as a 17th-century plague doctor, according to a report. The menacing oddball — who sports a black cloak, hat and beak-like mask — has been spotted several times in recent weeks, with observers calling the costume downright spooky, according to the Telegraph.
