A Halloween costume was so realistic it fooled the neighbours. Barrie police were called to Nelson Street after they received reports that a suspicious person was creeping in the night between two residences just after midnight on Friday morning. The person in question was wearing a long black coat and a mask with hair tied back. When police arrived and found the person, it turned out to be a man just testing out his Halloween costume. After police reassured the man that his costume was indeed a good one, officers cleared the scene. It’s unclear what the man was dressed up as.
