Halloween on Elm Street, what else would you expect to find buried in a backyard?
A Texas woman had a potential horror story on her property when workers were digging to make way for renovations.
They hit a hard object they at first thought was only a box, but it turned out it was actually a 4-foot-long coffin, KGBT reported.
They also found bags filled with booties, pink bears and bones.
The homeowner was thinking the worst until she talked to a neighbor who told her the story behind the burial.
As it turned out, the coffin contained dog bones and photos of a family pet, KGBT reported.
Diggers also uncovered a toolbox that contained cat bones.
The coffin was buried on the property for about 30 years, neighbors said.
