If the blue, fiery-eyed demon Bronco statue just outside of Denver International Airport wasn’t enough to unnerve passengers streaming down the airport’s concourse, a talkative gargoyle may do the trick.<\/p>\n

“Wha’. Ah. Oh. Damn!” a woman replies as she backs away from a gargoyle that had just come to life and addressed her.<\/p>\n

“That’s a little too close for comfort, lady,” the gargoyle statue had just told her as its lips started moving.<\/p>\n

On our 24th bday, DEN not only got wiser, we also got a little weirder. Our gargoyle friend is giving travelers his 2 cents, & surprising them with smiles & plenty of laughs. Who knows, maybe we’ll see our friend again. #DENFiles<\/a> #conspiracy<\/a> #denver<\/a> #gargoyle<\/a> #illuminati<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/TVuCuR8Pfu<\/a><\/p>\n
