Most suburbs have an abandoned Kmart or Joann Fabrics that sits dormant for nine months . . . and becomes INSANITY for the other three when it’s a Spirit Halloween. But this craziness is next level.
A pet monkey got loose from its owner inside a Spirit Halloween store in Plano, Texas . . . and spent more than 30 minutes swinging from rafters and poles.
At first people weren’t sure it was real, because most things in Spirit are not . . . but there was apparently one dead giveaway: It was wearing a diaper.
Witnesses say the monkey got spooked by an animatronic display inside the store, and got away from its owner. Employees weren’t able to corral the monkey, and the police were called.
Eventually, the monkey’s owner was able to bribe it down with a COOKIE, and regain control of it. The monkey was not hurt, and neither was anyone else during the chaos.
Officers say no humans were in danger, although a few customers did BOOK IT out of the store while this was happening.

(Coincidentally, these reports came out right as we heard about three lab monkeys from Tulane University escaping after the truck that was carrying them crashed in Mississippi.)
