A person dressed as a 17th century plague doctor has been alarming residents in one U.K. town, by stalking around his local neighbourhood complete with haunting black cloak and beaked mask.
In images posted online by Jade Gosbell, 21, and first reported by the Press Association, the person can be seen crossing a recreational area, dressed in the full garb of the famous doctors whose outfits became a symbol of death.
