Prospect Park’s Hobgoblin Clan Demands Solar Phone Charging Device

The Breeze Hill clan of hobgoblins has filed a demand with the Prospect Park Alliance that a solar phone charger be installed on or near Breeze Hill, threatening “tricks n’ shenanigans without ende” if their demands are not met.

Park Alliance Public Relations Manager Elena Sokolov believes that the hobgoblins, usually among the friendliest of the Park’s goblin communities, heard about these devices from the Jamaica Pond hobgoblin clan in Boston’s ‘Emerald Necklace’ chain of parks, where they have been installed for human usage by MIT.

“Normally we take this type of request very seriously,” said Sokolov, “But in this case we don’t think it’s necessary. Hobgoblins don’t even use cellular telephones—they just love human stuff. If we did install one for them, they would just be sticking branches and feathers in it, pretending they were phones.”

When asked about the “shenanigans,” Sokolov advises caution on Breeze Hill, but not to worry too much. “They’re always up to something anyway,” she said. “Heck, my shoelace comes untied every time I walk through there as it is.”
