This one is abit of a thinker, feel free to ask questions.

There was this guy who had managed to get completely lost on a woodland trek, walking aimlessly all day he was cold and hungry, had no idea where he was and began to fear the worst. Luckily, as nightfall was near, he stumbled across a wooden hut. He ran toward the hut and hoping someone would be in, he frantically knocked on the door. To his amazment a middle aged white male opened the door, to which the weary man immediately proceeded to tell him of his situation and asked if he could come in to warm up and possibly use his phone. The Homeowner agreed and kindly let the man in, then pointing toward a clothes cupboard said "there is are some blankets and jackets in there to warm yourself up, help yourself" Thankful, the man walked over to the cupboard, opened it and began to rumage and have a look for a something suitable to wear only to find something that turned his body instantly cold, he knew right then that this 'kind' man was going to kill him.

Why, what did he see?

[Iamblue]

A mirror?

[kjc]

was there a mirror in the wardrobe/cupboard so he could see the bloke behind him?

[eyebrows]

a picture of himself with the words "im gonna kill this man" on it?

[daniela31]

why say...'a middle aged white male'?
has this got something to do with it?

[squarebear]

A bunch of dead bodies and an axe?

This could be almost anything.

[eyebrows]

cos if he was black it might make it less believable

[daniela31]

a coffin with 'dracula' engraved on it.....

[Gizmonster]

This could be a number of things ..... here's one - he found his wife's head.

I'm assuming that there is some kinda clue in the wording, which will eventually lead to the correct answer ....

[dustypuss]

the name tag in the jacket said this is the property of

( Mr H Lecter )

[squarebear]

Pah! you forgot to mention that the guy was black.

Did you make that one up yourself?

[bobby3]

Sorry thought that would be too obvious if i did, i mentioned the other guy was white though!!

Ok, yeah not very good. But when i heard this i was never told the mystery mans ethnic origin, yet we got the answer from asking lots of questions. Do you want another? :))

Could just as easily have been that the pile of blankets and jackets obviously belonged to many other lost and weary trekkers?

Reminds me of the time I was hacking off old plasterwork and had put a pillowcase over my (then long) hair like a pointy balaclava. Went to answer the door to the plasterer and whipped hood off just in time, as he turned out to be a black guy - that COULD have been the most embarrassing moment of my life...
