This has to be the weirdest Craigslist post I've seen.

Haunted Trade Show Booth

Quote

"The structure was originally built for her dad's taxidermy business. He was one of the greats--his mounts looked like they were truly alive, and many who saw them would jump at the sight. She didn't know it until he died, but her dad had created a very unusual mount for a customer, one she would not at first describe to us. He hid it inside the container that the Trade Show Booth normally was stored in. Maeve found it when she was going through his things. A badger, no, a wolverine, but with the face of a woman! Where he found that face, Maeve didn't know. At first. Then she found the letter. It was a job her dad had done for a wealthy man, who's wife had died, but who he wanted to immortalize through taxidermy. Her dad never delivered the mount because he was so horrified at what he'd done. Maeve thinks the woman's spirit is now haunting the booth because.... she wants to be free. She wants her body together in one grave. But that's impossible. Maeve was so disgusted by it, she disposed of the mount, in a pretty horrible way. She put it in her dad's container of flesh eating beetles. It took awhile, but it's gone now."
