If It Be Their Will : The Veiled Mad “Dog” From Rabat



If It Be Their Will : The Veiled Mad “Dog” From Rabat



This is not a picture from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 13 Game Of Death or from The Last



Exorcism.








It is a real one. It happened yesterday.



A veiled mad person with a razor blade is running free in the streets of Rabat cutting deep into



the faces of sweet high school girls.






A mad person is still running free in our streets.





We do not know if it is a man or a woman who is under that horrible veil.

PLEASE SHARE THE PICTURE AND THE POST AS WELL .
