Strongsville police followed up on a disturbing report of a cult-like gathering Dec. 23.

An overly suspicious neighbor called the police, according to Strongsville Patch, after noticing nearly a dozen people wandering around in ghostly black robes. “She said they regularly host meetings and she believes they are involved in some kind of cult,” Patch’s Debbie Palmer writes.

When officers arrived, they found their time had been bountifully wasted. The cultish family was, in fact, hosting a Christmas party. They were garbed in tuxedos and black dresses.

Note to neighbor: Put down the Harry Potter. And the bong.

  1. I grew up in Strongsville back in the 60’s and 70’s……seems like it’s gotten weird there……what a tragic shame………..

  2. And here I always thought having a black tie event was considered classy. I guess it has becomes officially weird to dress up and not look like garbage all the time. Unless you’re a hipster, I guess that’s okay too.
