Ammon News - Bewildered motorists struggled to believe their eyes as some slowed down and even stopped to watch a woman cloaked as a nun, parade around skeleton figures by a cemetery.

A woman dressed as a nun was pictured dancing with a skeleton beside graveyard.

A baffled passer-by snapped the bizarre activity which appeared to involve models of a human and dog in skeleton form.

The witness says they were not the only one outside the old Hull General Cemetery to be left confused as other cars also slowed to check they were not seeing things.

Dressed in a cream nun’s habit and coif headpiece, the woman looked to be joyfully dancing with a model human skeleton and playing with the dog, Hull Live reports.

A startled witness who took the snaps from a passenger seat, said: “Literally, she was stood at the cemetery on Spring Bank West opposite the turn off for Hymers school. She was dancing with a skeleton.

“It was clearly attracting a lot of attention with people stopping to watch nearby and people in their cars looking!”

A second person could be seen filming the bizarre scene, suggesting the dancing nun was being filmed as part of a stunt or arts project.

The odd spectacle happened just before midday on Saturday, September 11, on the busy road into Hull.

The Hull General Cemetery has not been used for almost 50-years, although remains one of the city’s most historic sites.

Created in 1847, it was used until its closure in 1972.

It contains a number of key monument and burial sites, including to those victims of a cholera outbreak in the 1800s, and the great and the good from Hull’s prosperous 19th-century community.
