Don’t worry people … Leatherface is not on the loose, but a creepy teddy bear that appeared to be stitched with human skin, was found outside a California convenience store in what’s being dubbed a sick prank!
The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department rushed to a Victorville gas station Sunday — about 2 hours north of L.A. — after someone reported possible human remains … cue the chaos. Cops taped off the lot, and a coroner investigator even showed up to inspect the item … a teddy bear.
Turns out, despite the full-blown police probe, the bear’s not stitched from epidermis — it’s made of latex, and selling on Etsy for $165 … and the artist, Robert Kelly of Dark Seed Creations, is proudly owning his gory masterpiece.
The South Carolina-based artist told PEOPLE he shipped one of the bears to a Victorville customer just last week — and wants full credit now that people are blowing up his phone over the creepy creation.
It’s still a mystery whether the teddy was planted as a prank on someone specific, meant to freak out the whole town, or just accidentally left behind. Either way… mission “mayhem” accomplished!
