The magic combination of a haunted castle, a stranded orchestra and some wolves went straight into the headline Hall of Fame
What do you get if you cross a Bolivian orchestra, a ghost and some wolves? This absolutely fantastic headline.

“Bolivia closed its borders — and the group was stranded at the 600 acre estate surrounded by 23 packs of wolves and haunted by the ghost of Frederick the Great.”
Beat that! Where are Scooby Doo and the gang when we need them most?
The 2020 headline provided a welcome distraction from the bad news of the time – not that it’s much better now – and the funny comments rolled in.

This BOLIVIAN orchestra just inherited the Estate of a lifetime, but only one can be the true heir, to find out they will have to spend Quarantine together. But wait, what’s that creeping into the Foyer.. could it be the GHOST of the Manor?! No it’s a PACK of bloodthirsty wolves!

The castle owner should take the orchestra across first, return for the wolves, drop them off and pick up the orchestra again, go back and swap them for the instruments, then finally make one more return for the orchestra. Or the orchestra could go first and then just run for it

We wholeheartedly agree with journalist Michael Moran, who knows a thing or two about headlines.
I don’t know if a better headline *could* exist https://t.co/wzIfimhks9
