Pennsylvania police claim they were called to a Home Depot on a report of “disorderly people having an exorcism” in the lumber aisle.

The exorcism was for the dead trees and the would-be wood exorcists were escorted out of the building, according to a now-viral post from the Dickson City Police Department.

The incident was described in only 27 words, part of a long list of the small-town department’s daily log of calls – but the post has drawn attention due its bizarre quality and had been shared more than 550 times as of Thursday.

Are we sure they were attempting to exorcise the spirits of the dead trees and not the spirit of poor customer service that haunts Home Depot? :P

Babylon Bee stuff????

They probably should have waited until the wood was made into an Ouija board before doing the exorcism.

I was hoping they were getting the evil high price demon out of the wood.

Do we need to look?

What are their houses made from?

With what do they heat them?

Just Askin’.

Was that wrong? Is that knot allowed?

[EvilCapitalist]

I see what you did there. ;)

Title has undead potential.

[BenLurkin]

You nailed it.

[caww]

[Larry Lucido]

You mean you “saw” what I did there.

The mentally unstable are a dime a dozen these days...

Ben Franklin wondered why people built their houses out of the same fuel they cooked food and warmed themselves with.

Maybe the lumber spirits did it for excitement-—they were board.

I thought it was about how expensive lumber has become. Now you tell me “gods of wood and gods of stone”. Should i put a bone through my nose?

550 times shared. Hmmm, must some conspiracy. Did anyone investigate the potential of UFOs there? Probably not. There is nothing else in the world I can think of that the NY Post should be investigating and reporting.

[EvilCapitalist]

That too.
