The Scariest Mattress Colony


While we have long featured mattress colonies on Sad City, this one seems more suited to Halloween rather than the Christmas season. Since it's the final mattress of 2011 you could also consider this monstrosity the "boss" mattress colony. Found after dark on Babcock Street, this partially shredded mattress colony looks like it is eating itself. Perhaps the mattress colony is trying to fortify itself as Mayor Segarra gets ready to introduce a plan to rid the city of its mattress problem



Whatever might have been going on, the two young gentleman hanging out on the sidewalk sure seemed befuddled as to why someone would stop a car to take pictures of a pile of mattresses as night. "Just some official mattress business folks, nothing to see here."  "Just let us knock of the 2011 boss mattress, save the princess, and make our way to level 2012." This Christmastime mattress colony is the most insidious looking mattress colony we have come across to date.

  9. Some companies provide mattress names that are long lasting but may really feel somewhat awkward. Soft mattresses are generally more comfy.
