I don't care how creative you think you are. You can't top this for terrifying imagery. "She was chasing children in a cow costume."
I'm sure there is an irrational explanation for all this...

Lieutenant Muterspaw
He knitted his brow
And said Michelle Allen
Was dressed as a cow.
She peed on a porch
And chased after kids
And nobody in town
Could explain what she did.
It's the damnedest thing ever
In North Verity;
There usually ain't cows
In the parkway.
And they usually ain't drunk
And threatening to fight
But I guess Michelle Allen
Was drinking that night.
She'll be spending a month
In the local hoosegow
And that's what you get
When you dress like a cow.

I am so very please that they include a picture with the article.
Also, as written, the sentence could be interpreted to mean that they were all in the costume during the chase, or the the children were all in a single costume as they were chased.
Either one is pretty awesome.

... Elmer left two twenties on the bar and snuck out the staff door by the restrooms. The other bulls told him Bessie was a wild date but he hadn't counted on the near riot that followed her second umbrella drink.
On the slow hike back to the old barn, Elmer had the time to take inventory of who he'd told about tonight's date. Not many. His paddock mates would put two and two together quickly, but they'd back him up if anybody started asking questions. All he'd really need is an alibi and some luck that Bessie's friends wouldn't get too curious...
