Weird BUT true

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy — but not with this gig!

A company wants to pay one lucky horror-movie buff $1,300 to watch 13 scary flicks while monitoring his or her heart rate.

FinanceBuzz, a Florida financial-advice Web site, created the pulse-pounding dream job to study whether high-budget films are scarier than low-budget ones. The lineup includes “Amityville Horror,” “A Quiet Place,” and “The Blair Witch Project.”

These “leftovers” were worth saving.

A California couple wrapped their entire cabin in aluminum foil as a forest fire ripped through their town — and it was the only structure left standing when the smoke cleared.

The foil reflected thermal radiation and protected the home in Sierra-at-Tahoe from catching ablaze last week.

Five zebras have been on the loose in a small Maryland town for more than a week, baffling officials who can’t seem to catch them.

The equines broke free from a private farm in Prince George’s County and have been hoofing it through neighbors’ yards, according to officials who have tried with no luck to corral them with grain.

An Illinois airhead falsely claimed there was a bomb on a plane because she missed her chance to board the flight and wanted to slow it down, authorities said.

The plane was taxiing on a runway at Fort Lauderdale International Airport when the woman, 46, allegedly claimed there was a bomb in a suitcase on the plane. No explosives were found, and she was quickly arrested.

They’re looking for a grim keeper.

A coffin museum in Birmingham, England, dedicated to final resting boxes is looking for tour guides.

Coffin Works, which started in the 1800s as a cabinet factory before taking a darker turn, sees the macabre museum as a path to discussing and learning about death.
