Area woman [livejournal.com profile] tofty discovered upon waking that she was the victim of Mysterious Ruffians, who broke into her home during the night and rifled a paper diorama set up on the dining room table, stealing a "pillow" and scattering books, candles, and an unclothed, hairless clay figurine over the floor in decidedly profligate fashion.

A distraught Ms. [livejournal.com profile] tofty said, "It was such a nice pillow, too -- all stuffed with cotton-balls, and just the right size."

Police were called in, but could find evidence of neither a break-in to the house nor of the Mysterious Ruffians. Early reports suggest that the pillow, considering its low resale value, has been stripped for parts and will never be recovered. And it is unlikely, even given Ms. [livejournal.com profile] tofty's reported list of suspects and a generous posted reward of Whiskas cat treats (crunchy on the outside! soft on the inside!), that the Mysterious Ruffians will ever be arrested and brought to justice.

Oh man, I just stumbled upon a set of miniature postcards of the Winchester Mystery House yesterday while cleaning. My grandmother claims to remember seeing Mrs. Winchester's carriage when she was a little girl in San Jose.

Do you think the English boys in Norfolk suits were ghosts? Did they have plus-fours?
