what's with the cloaked figure passing by Westminster Abbey? Is the video real? Per NTEB … Geoffrey Grider has an article about it … could be any of these :unsure: Did the Grim Reaper attend King Charles III coronation? From The Jerusalem Post: But only the most attentive viewers noticed a curious incident during the festivities. In a video that was uploaded to Twitter and subsequently went viral, a figure clad in dark robes and a black hood and holding a staff can be seen hurrying swiftly across the entrance to Westminster Abbey during the ceremonies. Naturally, this led to wild online speculations about the identity of the mysterious figure, ranging from people making allusions to the Harry Potter movies, to quips about Megan Markle having possibly found a way to attend the ceremony after all. The Grim Reaper of Westminster Before the coronation ceremony, a coven of witches and pagans had announced that they would accompany the festivities with a ritual of their own, during which they would cast spells for good weather during the coronation and health for the new monarch, The Sun reported. Another angle of speculation led to discussions about the new king’s connections to the Free Masons. “The British Monarch has a long-time connection to Scottish Freemasonry,” one Twitter user alleged. He went on to say that “The Rectified Scottish Rite of Masons uses a black hooded robe in some ceremonies. Their headquarters happens to be in Mark Masons Hall opposite St James Palace where Charles was affirmed as Monarch last year.” Another commenter chose to take the matter more lightly and joked “Britain without Freemasonry is like ham without eggs so what can you expect?” - Fair Use - to quips about Megan Markle having possibly found a way to attend the ceremony after all. I found this one funny. I don't think Megan Markle is so anxious to attend the coronation that she will do whatever it takes to be there. She probably couldn't care less about Charles and his family. If she was there, she would want to show off and steal the limelight. It's all about her. It's interesting that they have an article about this in the Jerusalem post. thank you Geri. Another watcher reminded us the Grim Reaper also visited the 2012 London opening olympics ceremony. :wacko: - Fair Use -
Other comments gave the discussion a darker turn. “Anyone else just notice the Grim Reaper at Westminster Abbey?” one of the persons who had uploaded the short clip asked. Another commenter posted a picture of an explanation about witch rituals, which include the use of black robes similar to the one worn by the mysterious figure and others agreed that this must have been a witch.
