A granda has revealed his embarrassment and horror after police officers woke him up asking to ‘look inside baby’s coffin’. Antiques collector, John Long had the child sized coffin as part of his weird and wacky collection at his home.
A self confessed horror lover, John said he was struck with fear when neighbours told him that police had been knocking on his door looking for him. However, John, who has three grandchildren, revealed that he was mortified when he discovered someone had reported him for having the innocuous coffin in his room.
The 68-year-old said: “I’m a collector of antiques and I’m a huge horror fan so I have lots of different things in my house. Some people may say I shouldn’t have that kind of thing in my house, but no one usually sees it but me.
