Deer’s head and upside down cross found on centenary stone in New Forest

[maximus otter]

A New Forest resident has described the “appalling” moment a rotting deer’s head with an upside down cross next to it was discovered on a centenary stone, in an incident seemingly linked to the occult.

Chris White, a retired police officer who works in Shappen Stores in Burley village, removed the grisly object after member of the public came into his shop to report it on 8 May.

Some shooter having fun!
It's not one of you guys trying to liven up a boring day is it?
Time to call for Chris Packham to investigate, he hasn't had any publicity for a little while!

Burley is well known for its witchcraft and all the shops sell witch themed tat.

Deer head represents the horned god, Herne the hunter. Upside down cross represents devil worship
