Nightmare Beach: 8 Severed Human Heads Found on Beach with Disturbing Pamphlets Nearby

It’s little wonder that beaches have been as popular as they’ve been throughout all of human history.

People just naturally appreciate the sun, the swimsuits, the water, the sand, the community — and severed human heads?

That’s the very real nightmare scenario that beachgoers saw if they’ve recently travelled to Ecuador.

In January, reports began to surface that severed human heads were strung up as a warning to gangs and would-be thieves.

While the New York Post originally reported that there had been five heads left on display in January, a more recent report from the Daily Mail noted that there were actually eight spotted on Saturday.
