Has anyone seen these reports? For the last year or so, a creepy gnome has been terrorizing Argentina.

This article came out in October 2008, detailing more sightings.

Here's a full video.

Any thoughts; new species, alien, or a dumb prank by someone who was bored?

I have to admit, that is pretty real looking if its a prank.
I'm waiting for someone to shoot it. Then we'll see.
It's pretty old news though and I'm guessing it is fake

This is not looking good for Travelocity.

Even if it's not real, which I have to assume, its still creepy as hell

Probably just a local drunk

LOL, that must be a hell of a beverage than. He's so tiny, he's like 2 feet tall!

As Republican said, this may hurt Travelocity in Argentina. They may kill the business people there if they ever set up shop.

Not to worry he was arrested.

Apparently he had a falling out with the kebler elves, a fight broke out and a few dishes were broken he was later found drunk stumbling around the 7 dwarfs house making cat call outside Snow whites bedroom window at 3:00 am Witnesses said he was seen earlier that night pan handling for beer money after his girlfriend kicked him out of the shoe for surfing midget porn

I love that pic, LOL, great story!

LOL! Reminds me of a scene from Puppetmaster!

I'm not sure why this was posted in the Aliens/UFO's forum. Is the Op suggesting that maybe it's an alien?

IRM

Could be an alien, the news in Argentina has suggested it. Could go in the paranormal studies forum too, I guess. Anything is possible in this world, right?

Looks like a grunt from Halo.

One of the most talked about topics of last year in the crypto forum.

It was debunked as a hoax, if I remember correctly, because the same person uploaded two videos of the same scene, one edited with the gnome. Not entirely sure though.

Here is just a selection of the pre-existing threads:

Gnome Video
crazy gnome filmed
Creepy Gnome Terrorizes Town in Argentina
Gnome caught on video in south america
Creepy Gnome terrorizes S.American town
Gnome From Hell in Argentina

Ah you beat me to it. Thanks for doing the work for me. I was feeling lazy and was thinking about just linking the ATS search engine.

Anyway, this gnome has been discussed REPEATEDLY on ATS. As fooffstarr said, the links are just a small selection of the threads already in exsistance.

I hope this doesnt come across as rude to the OP, im tired and feeling kind of grumpy. I do apologise if thats the case, no offense is intended.

Peace and love

Throw a beard on your new avatar and it could be you Bob!
pointy head and all

Speaking of gnomes, this reminds of an Australian woman (I think, maybe British) who had one of her garden gnomes stolen, and photos of it from various landmarks around the world were posted back to her.

The gnome was later returned.

In either case, they just give me the creeps...

NOW HANG ON A MINUTE!

Gnomes are real to the Irish & Celts, regarding folk law.

My parents and the neighbours had a heap the front garden but never had any attack me as a kid.

But shoot a few with my BSA under leveler Air Rifle and a few cats LOL

I dunno but I'd bet it was this guy walking home from a party...
I read something about the people who saw the *creepy* hearing dog like noises...



Gnome Stealing!

A Regent resident is afraid for her safety after gnomes of great sentimental value were stolen from her garden while she slept.
Colleen Cheak has not had a full nights sleep since thieves stole the priceless ornaments – some taken from outside her open bedroom window – on January 16.
"They are just absolute mongrels. I hope they are haunted for the rest of their lives," she says.

Bob-Down-Under, Slayer, do you two have something you want to confess to ATS?
Where were you two on the night of January 16...



peace

Looks pretty dang good for a fake imo.

Cant keep and intelligent debate past one post huh ATS makes me sick to see people joke on others fear.

For one the dam thing looked injured. Why else would it walk sideways if it was fine..

Maybe it got jumped by a dog or something.

Gnomes had to have been modeled after something.....

Hahh i dont know if santa is counting his elves.

Sorry, didn't know it was debunked. Still a little new here
