3 TRUE Creepy Stalker Horror Stories

this happened back in 2021 on the Valentine's Day just before the second wave of pandemic 19 most adults were vaccinated and slowly starting to venture out with their masks on sanitizing constantly there was the fear of another outbreak another lockdown and comorbidities it had been a year since I had any sort of human contact I was not in the best place in my life my boyfriend of 6 years had cheated on me in 2019 with one of my best friends when I confronted him he told me that he had already proposed to her she had

said yes and that he was moving out I was completely broken for two reasons I had found the ring a few days ago and assumed it was for me secondly because he had pursued me so vehemently during college that I was convinced that he wouldn't leave me ever even after we got together he kept telling me that you are the one for me I had never been with anyone else my entire life of 24 years and trusted him deeply I was devastated and alone the pandemic added to my misery during the lockdown in mid 2020

I saw the pictures of their intimate wedding held at their apartment with all my close friends and attendance it broke me and I distanced myself from the handful of friends that I had the only Solace of my life was my art my job and the Stray Cat that followed me home while coming back back from a grocery shop I named him Jazz due to his erratic Rhythm while purring I had decided to pull myself together for the new year of 2021 and that this was going to be my year I decided that I needed new

people in my life I could only find dating applications online but when I searched further I found an app called Humpin as in human connection it was in beta phase so free and based on compatibility of your biology especially blood type I was intrigued after reading some articles posted by the app on this topic I was convinced that people of similar biology stick together the application had a welcome page with some harmless personality and health-based questions the reports it generated based on these was astonishingly accurate it categorized me as introverted predicted my food preferences and

even suggested restaurants and bars which would suit me from my city I was gasping at the the accuracy of the predictions and feeling a little queasy when my phone dinged with a notification from the app a handshake from a person named Robbie I read the report on this person they seem to have the same blood group and matched my health profile the app didn't support photos of more than 100 kilobytes and the person had not specified their gender it was apparently a policy of the developers to not base your choice of friendships and partners on

superficial details I dared myself to accept the handshake they were charming and extremely polite while texting on the app I shared my art with them they appreciated my work and said that they could feel the Deep pain hidden in my work I hadn't felt so respected and seen in a very long time they asked if I was comfortable to meet with them on the coming Sunday I checked my calendar and realized that Sunday was the Valentine's Day I hesitated for a moment but I had promised myself to have new experiences this year and I was

partially happy thinking that I won't be alone on Valentine's I said yes after taking my time and they were extremely chill about it they suggested that we should try out one of the cafes that the app had suggested I agreed I was smiling to myself after a long time I imagined them to be an older female who was very caring whom I would become best friends forever with on our first meeting we met at the cafe on Valentine Day evening it was sort of empty I assumed due to co and how far it was from

the city my next surprise was when they removed their hoodie it was a pale tall guy with a very charming smile I was a little disappointed but also sort of happy he was a perfect gentleman he held the door pulled my chair and was considerate while ordering I felt so relaxed around him I was happy that I made this decision the application was not meant for dating but this casual meeting felt like a date as the night progressed I found myself falling for him as it got darker we decided to a walk to a pub

listed on the app on the seaside we walked the streets holding hands like an old married couple he listened intently to all my stories it was so easy to talk to him that I spoke about my previous relationship and break up for the very first time to someone I decided to have a light dinner at the pub while he drank some red wine and sat looking at me lovingly while I continued to talk he offered to walk me back home I felt that both of us were walking slower like we didn't want this meeting to

end when I was about to say goodbye he looked deeply into my eyes and said something all I heard was a sound like the ringing of glass and that he liked me very much I thought it was something from the nearby Diner which was buzzing with lydy couples I had this strong urge to invite him in we went upstairs and started kissing it felt like I was getting Intoxicated by the wine he drank I heard that glassy voice again he whispered into my ear you are the one for me the hurtful memories of my past

relationship came back flooding into my mind and it felt like I snapped out of a days I looked into the mirror and I couldn't see his reflection but when I looked back he was too close to my neck I noticed with shock that how his mouth had sharp fangs and too many teeth I could barely make eye contact it burnt his bright red gaze was melting my insides into mush but not due to love this time I shut my eyes tightly and screamed while trying to free myself his grip was too strong I saw jazz

in my peripheral vision he was standing by the door in attack mode hissing this whole time I screamed at him to leave and save himself but my guardian angel jumped on the monster I freed myself picked up Jazz and ran straight out I sat down under the street light near the crowded Diner opposite my apartment with jazz on my lap Jazz was shaking but in his protective hyper alert mode he intently stared at my bedroom window above a pair of eyes like spots from a laser pointer were looking back at us I had made the

mistake of inviting something not so human into my house I looked down and covered Jazz with my jacket the exert of the night had tired me I dozed off when I woke up Jazz seemed relaxed which gave me some courage to look up I went back to my apartment I felt that he was waiting for the sunset to come back I packed my bags and drove to my parents house I hadn't told them about my breakup yet I decided to make that my reason to come home my mother hugged me tight and consoled me she

made my favorite soup me and Jazz were relaxed by now we had left the monster behind I slept soundly in the middle of the night I woke up sweating I had had a nightmare I got out of my bed and found the window open and there it was sitting on the tree right outside my window staring at me with its fiery eyes it started speaking in its glassy voice commanding me to invite it in it has been 2 years since it still stares at me from the tree every night I try to Shield Myself by

not opening the window blackout curtains headphones loud music and whatnot I work from home now and never get out of my house my parents asked me to go for therapy they think that I am depressed due to the breakup the Humpin app seems to have disappeared Into Thin Air I can't even locate the restaurants it had suggested jazz is always on high alert after Sunset and some nights when the voices are loud he cries with a fervor like he is in pain I cannot take this anymore and now I am getting rash like burn marks

on the side of my body facing the window doctors think it's long Co but I know it is not I don't know what to do should I tell my parents and get help but will they believe me my boyfriend is currently being stalked and harassed by an ex it's clearly stressing him the F out and he hates it he has told her numerous times he does not want to remain in touch with her but she will not relent even claiming that she did not respect his boundaries because they didn't seem fair to her the ex

has one over his mother works at his workplace inserted herself into the small local deaf Community he is deaf she is not and seems intent on continuing to force herself into his life and he is too nice to do anything but continue asking her nicely to stop fearing what he will have to deal with from his mother who likes her if he is any harsher blocks her number Etc I had a boyfriend who lived 2 and 1/2 hours away he was in the Army and would drive over and get me on the Friday night bring

me to his parents house for the weekend and take me home on the Sunday I was 16 he was 18 we'd been together for about 3 months when I was at his on the weekend and he had spent the entire time on an FPS on his PC playing online with his friend who lived 10 doors down the road if that now he said this was his best friend who was being deployed and he wanted to spend some quality time together I said I understood and that he should have warned me and I wouldn't have come

over he went mental long story short we broke up I made it clear that there were no baxis and I'd been thinking about it before for this latest visit anyway guy drove all the way to my hometown drove around till he found my 14-year-old sister and her mes at the park and plied them with cider so she'd tell him where I was and what I had been up to luckily I was away somewhere and he couldn't find me I found him on MySpace a year or so later and he had a photo of me on

there entitled the one who got away now I'm 23 he's 25 he's married with two children he added me on Facebook book last month this is my stalker story and I lived so far my freshman year of college was one of the funnest years of my life and some of my Fondest Memories Are from that year but it was also the scariest and strangest year to date I'm 31 now this is thanks to one story in particular there are actually a couple more that I might post some other time that takes place over the entire

school year I still sometimes wonder how this really happened and I didn't end up a shut in nut job and it still freaks me out to this day I've only talked about it once or twice since it happened 13 years ago I'm changing names of people and places because yeah August 2001 like most freshmen I live in the dorms at a state party school I opted out of the good school I got into I guess I had a little steam to blow off after graduating from a military and College Prep boarding school plus after a

sports injury I didn't exactly have any specific plan for life that went past Saturday night if you know what I mean a good buddy from military school will Colin bill went to same college and lived a few floors below in the same dorm as me so of course we were getting the party started before my parents exhaust fumes had even evaporated from the parking lot for the most part the first month or so of college was pretty much like that normal I went to most of my classes partied just about every night chased girls around

and that was enough for the moment but things began to change one night sometime in mid-september and college for me would never be normal again my dorm phone landline only Zach Morris carried a cell phone in 2001 get over it rings in the middle of the night hello on the other end I can only really describe the voice as the kind you picture when you think about a computer talking kind of like the early model car GPS's hi will call me Gary how are you today not fully awake I'm just confused at this point who

is this he repeats hi Gary how are you today it becomes clear I'm being effed with so I hang up and chuckle Bill nice one I pass back out I end up forgetting about the call for a few days and never mention mention to Bill or anyone else about a week later I get another call around the the same time of night hi Gary I'm watching you nice very cliche seriously Bill how are you not KNE deep and Ever Clear or a Tri Delta at this hour enough already Cade roommate is going to start getting

pissed I hang up I casually confront my o so clever Amigo at breakfast the next morning purposely not trying to bite too hard to give him a payoff that might incentivize continued calls I also wasn't 100% it was actually him and not another one of my douchebag friends he gives a genuinely confused response whatever so a couple days after second call I come home and see I had multiple messages on my answering machine WTF I barely knew that thing even worked it's computer voice guy CVG message one my machine cuts off first one two seconds

of message which tells me it's a bot set to play message upon answer hi Gary I'm watching ing you message two I thought I asked you to answer my calls Gary message three where might Gary be on a Tuesday night okay so one of my friends is clearly [ __ ] or bored enough to really push for a reaction here the next day I play the messages for Cade who was around during the calls which were apparently earlier in the night when he was still awake he'd been a close buddy since we were in junior

high but we'd sort of Taken separate paths After High School so anyway he's aware I'm a wild child and thinks nothing of the first couple messages by Third he's a little spooked I then walk down to a couple other buddies rooms and casually but immediately bring up the subject NADA over the next couple of days I press all close and semi close friends but get zero answers and zero suspects the calls start coming more frequently over the next couple months starting at once a week then to once every 2 three days up to every day

by Christmas break I don't say anything to my family at that point although I really really should have what started out as a decent beginning of college turned into not showing up for any classes tests nothing grades reflect and I am too busy answering for a 067 GPA to talk about some dumb prank that would likely be dismissed as a pathetic attempt at grade's explanation so it goes uneventful break and back to School determined to become a new man I got to get my [ __ ] together with these grades so I tell Bill I'm

going to have to chill out and focus on school first night back I get my first spring semester call from CVG how is your family in Cypress Hometown suburb okay now this is [ __ ] man what kind of douch Lords am I hanging out with that even have the discipline to drag out a prank this long I get the answer to that question a few days later and the answer is none of them calls become threatening and downright dark I'm very interested Gary in being close to you yeah with kind of the weird sentence

structure like that I have tools I can bring it is going to all be over soon one day I bring Bill and all my other buddies up to hear the messages never deleted a single one for some reason I guess when things happen over longer periods of time you don't really feel the cumulative impact until laying out the complete package of evidence the guys are in shock I guess I should mention that some of these calls got really specific in making sure to note specific details about my parents address as well as the violence they

are planning on doing to me cut open your esophagus Gary with a butter knife and all sorts of other crap that is sort of blurred together through the hundreds upon hundreds of calls I got over the school year a chick friend of mine that I'd really liked in high school goes to a different School hundreds of miles miles away we've reconnected thanks to good old aim and talked from time to time on the phone CVG had mentioned a couple of times your friend and made threats about this unspecified person from time to time but your

friend turned into will call her Lila your friend Lila Lila and I are the only two people ever named in these calls but it did get me wondering if this was a new lead to the source Leila is clueless when I call her about it awesome I know that background was long to read but you'll understand why I had to explain the situation when I tell you about what happens next one night we're all partying and drinking at some Hotel forgot to mention all that straight of crap went out the window as these events progressed

a different buddy Carl has a nice big truck we'd all go everywhere in but he passed out drunk at the hotel after pounding an entire bottle of what Earth FX I'm not really drinking tonight and want to get back to my own bed I snatched Carl's keys to drive back to campus thinking I'll drive back in the morning to get everyone this was one of the few times I'd even driven that year so I wasn't tiptop on my directions I make an early turn and am somehow down a road I've never seen I realized this

pretty quick but I figure I've got the general direction of Campus pegged so I can just continue the wrong road until hitting the familiar Highway that I knew I'd eventually have to hit that is close to campus I'm finding myself in Open Fields paved Road and everything but aside from the road there was absolutely nothing and it was completely black around 3:00 a.m. there's this really strange four-way stop I come upon strange because I'm probably the fourth person in a year to drive on that road unnecessary anyway I trudge along eventually get to the familiar

Highway and Home Free a few days later CVG interrupts his usual depraved threaten ing to mention that specific four-way day and time that I was on it which like I said was around 3:00 a.m. and there wasn't a soul in sight so yeah I now realize CVG is obviously tracking my movements somehow note I later joined the military worked in the intelligence community and worked Special Operations and tracked bad guys all around the world to this day I still can't figure out how this dude knew I was in the middle of those fields on that

date in the middle of the night I never mentioned it to anyone around March this apparent Rendevous became cvg's focal point and he'd make sure to let me know the dayway close the calls were coming in no fewer that 10 or 15 every single day seriously the ringer was now off out of courtesy to Cade and I turned down the volume of answering machine as his phone calls recorded but I finally get the message I'd been waiting for keep in mind I've now become somewhat famous in famous at this University by now because of CVG

people were constantly knocking on my door wanting to hear the messages friend of a friend of whomever I know it was all people wanted to hear about at parties blah blah blah for a split second it was cool because I'm pretty sure I ended up getting laid a couple times indirectly from introductions conceived through interest in the guy with the stalker Don't Judge Me moving right along the daytime location or are set we will meet in front of colan Hall at midnight Wednesday 27 April and we will take our friendship to the next level I

know what you are thinking and yet throughout the year I had considered the possibility that I was dealing with a female hell halfth no fury like a woman scorned and I was definitely that kind of dude when I was 18 19 years old the kind that could attracted clinginess and anger but I started to rule out female for various reasons that only a fellow en would and look it up if you're not tracking I can build profiles with a very high ratio of accuracy to available information this creep just didn't feel like a female to

me it didn't even feel like a peer I was convinced I was dealing with mid-30s white male computer nerd that I'd come into contact with at some point in my life doesn't really matter because what I ended up finding out on Wednesday 27 April which by the way was Leila's birthday interesting I was wrong of course everyone wants to be part of this juicy story and there's a pretty ridiculous amount of testosterone floating around the dorm on game day this was a real life creepster and a legit Horror Story unfolding before their very eyes and

group think will subvert caution if property motivated these guys are ready to defend me with their lives just ask them so while these monkeys are getting all hopped up on Mountain Dew I stay home that afternoon wondering what the FX I was going to do at midnight of course I was going to go but dude yeah I've always been in Al theat in good shape wrestling football and baseball teams yada yada but I'm still a 19-year-old white male good parents grew up middle upper class white Suburbia had a good life in other words I can

definitely hold my own in a street fight but this whatever this is doesn't feel anything like a street fight or any other kind of fight I've been in this is a disturbed violent angry possibly grown ass psychopath that has decided to dedicate almost a full year now of his life to targeting and terrorizing me so yeah I'm a little fraking nervous my home team crowd steadily built up throughout the afternoon and evening with probably close to 70 or 80 guys grouped up at our dorm's common area we were connected to the female dorm at the

first floor smoking cigarettes and talking about beating the SX out of people and getting messed up and all the other generic clich sh's X you can imagine once the party hour approaches though over half of the guys Splinter off into other various propositions that probably included more traditional fun like beer bongs and sorority girls I'm left with about a 1520 member platoon I had decided earlier that I was not going to allow all these Knuckleheads to Shadow me but I could definitely use them in case of emergency I didn't want to risk him spooking out

of the meat so I let them know they will need to stay inside the doors of the common area while I walk out to the meeting spot Coleman Hall was adjacent to our connected girls dorm and about 300 Paces outside door Todo to get to Coleman the witching hour came so I leave the crew to begin the longest couple hundred or so Paces of my life my boys can see me through the glass doors but wouldn't really be able to see much once I get to the Coleman Hall door insert link about 100 PES out

from my spot I observed two things at the same time one some kind of small quick movement in front of the patio walkway that goes all the way around the building and two the movement was in a spot along the walkway where the only normally Uber bright bulb is out I'm not exactly sure exactly how I was able to see him but I suddenly realized someone is crouched behind one of the contiguous cookie cutter bushes outside the patio perimeter against one of the building pillars in dark clothes and Hoodie he is a few feet off

from the p path where I'm supposed to meet him and positioned to where I really should not have been able to see him given the pillar blocking any Shadow plus the burnout I later found out smashed light in fact I could have easily walked all the way to the door without ever have noticed someone down there nope I sort of jump mid-step as this happens and I see him raise up a little thinking I might have seen him I see him raise up and take a step toward me and fight or flight hits I've learned

that my particular particular fight or flight chooses fight in more mild situations flight during intense situations but for SX your pants situations it's scarier to run away with your back to whatever scaries X I'm dealing with so I fight before I realize what I'm doing I'm in a dead Sprint toward this meth who I'm guessing sees what I can't yet which is my platoon busting through the glass doors in Hot Pursuit creepster noes the F out of there running on the patio alongside Coleman Hall toward the park parking lot insert or refer to picture link

again I can tell this isn't the mid-30s computer nerd I predicted creepster is above average height above average Broad and build athletically that's all I could tell really I'm not even sure if he was white because he was at least tan if not Hispanic Middle Eastern Etc I'm really booking it as he right turns on a dime at the edge of the building I realize I'm moving fast enough to catch him but everyone else is really far behind I also realize I'm moving so fast I won't be protected as I turn hard right at the

corner of the building if he stops there I'm toast as I turn the corner I see the van sitting alone in the parking lot in front of me it's running and brake lights flicker on then off park into drive and begins inching forward toward the exit homless is of course heading for the van which for some reason sent this whole new level of fear into me this is it this this is really happening and I'm going to get murdered tonight but I can't stop something keeps me moving forward I guess I'd come this far dealt

with this crazy BS for almost a full year now completely unable to do anything other than try to ignore it I'm not exactly going places academically at this point and my life doesn't quite have all that much purpose to it yet if I am going to get schwacked I will at least know and this crap will at least be over plus I still have a chance to catch this madman before he gets away if I could get close enough to dive tackle I would still be on my own to deal with the creepster his driver

and now I realize there's a third one that was Manning the sliding side door awesome I don't care how badass you think you are when you're a 19-year-old jock your chances of taking down three grown men that are already violent criminals and prepared to victimize are about one and not going to happen buddy my turn is wide and slow due to being full on Sprint and I lose ground I'm probably 20 yard from the lot when he does a flying leap into the side of the van there couldn't have been any rows of seats for

a leap like that creepster three slams sliding door shut as van peels out of the parking lot bangs are right and gone in an instant the relief of not being kidnapped bound and gagged in that van with three psychos who most likely had some pretty horrific plans for me is now just as strong as the dread of the f fact that this is still not over with I was speechless and so was my platoon as they catch up a minute later a few of them caught up enough to witness the parking lot scene but no

one was talking testosterone has now been replaced with genuine and Earnest concern they all just stood there with me catching their breath and making sure I was all right one guy asks if anyone got a plate number not even I did not enough light we finally start walking back and I'm reliving the scene as we retrace our steps as we get closer to the original meeting spot I see something that scares me more than anything else in the entire equation has up to this point on the opposite side of the pillar where creepy mcperson was

crouching there's a video camera sitting on a stand pointed right at the spot I would have been standing at when I should have not been able to notice him it's still recording somewhere around 9th grade I broke up with this boy I was dating who at first seemed normal he had English with one of my friends and seemed to like her until finding out she had a boyfriend that's when he moved on to me he texted me a few times and I only thought of him as a friend however he he thought of it as

more and told everyone we were dating excluding me of course not knowing what to do I just went along with it and broke broke up with him for the first time about a month later he decided otherwise and told everyone we were back together so again I break up with him about a month later except this time he doesn't tell anyone we're back together instead he sends me pictures of his dick what a guy this is 10 15 years ago not my ex-boyfriend but my cousin's girlfriend at the time 's axe he would follow her

everywhere because he wanted to be with her but she wasn't interested her axe didn't like that she was seeing a new man my cousin one day my cousin dropped her off on the front steps of her workplace I think she worked at a bank but I don't remember he drove away and thought nothing of it he later received a phone call from the police that she had been killed on the steps of her workplace by her ex-boyfriend as soon as my cousin had driven out of sight her ex had been hiding in the bushes waiting

for her my cousin hung and killed himself a few weeks later because he couldn't deal with it he felt like it was his fault for not waiting and watching her go inside in all reality though she probably would have been killed by her ex one way or another this was in Toronto I wish I could find an article I may be fuzzy on the details I was relatively Young when it happened I had a friend claim to me that he thought we were dating all through college helping each other with homework hanging out with mutual

friends I was literally married to my current husband the last few months and stalker guy didn't break it to me that he thought I was just hardcore friendzoning him until graduation I told him from the GetGo that I wasn't attracted to him last I knew he joined the military because my husband was in the military he's probably reading this right now and if so I'd like to emphasize to him that sometimes people are just nice to each other and just because I was a woman who was friendly with a man I never ever owed him

anything more than that and that is the story of why I never made friends with a man again oh and also of why I vomit a little each time I hear the term friend zone I will never date a cop again I swear that half the force was reporting on everything I did even after I broke up with him after we split I got a flat tire and saw four cops sitting in their cars watching me as I changed it 20 minutes in my cell rang and it was my exx asking do you need help

with that flat tire cop car is driving down my street too often and always slowed as they passed my house a bug was found in my house phone a cop car was usually behind me as I drove the list goes on and on about eight months after I broke it off I finally told my brothers what was going on I don't know what they did but it all stopped 2 days later what started as a typical New Year's Eve gig at a newly renovated hole in the wall has become something far worse I'm the base

player insert punch line here I'm pretty good too although I only play part-time back in the day I played with velvet on fire you won't remember us we played one gig for six people then our singer Rod Brimstone leapt onto someone's table and urinated talk about game over but I digress my latest group a blues rock cover band called Falling forward was hired to perform three sets of Music the trouble started when the redhead arrived I was at the bar minding my own business when out of the blue a radiant red head clad entirely in

black leather grabbed my ass Whata drinking her voice sounded like an ashay she was tall with emerald eyes and a sleeve of tattoos I did a double take um I gulped whatever you're buying she winked twirled her lip ring then slid her icy fingers between my legs subtlety was not her strength the beer arrived and we cheersed she said her name was Rosetta I introduced myself as Derek the bass player while forcing her hand further north then after some throwaway small talk I sauntered towards the stage more than ready for the band's thirdd and final

set falling forward played a Rocka set Mick the lead singer and harmonica player worked the audience into a frenzy leading the party was Rosetta dancing sexily swinging her hips to and fro fist pumping and Cat calling when the band finished its final set I started loading the gear into mix van I was exhausted with little patience for patronizing drunks pestering me despite this the red head came strutting over next thing I know I'm slow dancing to Every Rose Has Its Thorn via karaoke ug I didn't know which was worse the drunken Out Of Tune singing

or being forced to dance to it her perfume smelled like sweet summer rain but her exploring hands were icebergs we wiggled and wormed along the crowded Dance Floor until finally and thankfully the song ended next came the tequila things get blurry by this point somehow despite the redhead's Relentless flirting I finished loading the gear and Mick drove me home she must have gotten my phone number because the following morning I awoke to a flashing phone and one hell of a hangover hey handsome the redhead texted come over included was a video of her masturbating not

going to lie I was kind of turned on don't judge it had been a while since I'd had sex my hormones got the best of me still I had my reservations Rosetta was a bit over the top for my tastes and that's putting it mildly so I reached out to Mick asking for advice his reply was instantaneous while the kettle's hot and that's exactly what I did Rosetta greeted me with opened arms and Ruby lips her perfume was potent her green eyes sparkling with bad intentions she led me into her bedroom to my dismay velvet

on Fires one and only event poster was pasted onto her her wall below a giant 9in Nails poster I gulped she was one of the six who saw my old band I love music she said Softly between kisses then she got to work I left her apartment thinking I would never see her again unfortunately this was not the case the redhe head was relentless texting me day and night sending naughty pics insisting I come over finally I caved yes I'm weak spare me the lecture this time was different Rosetta was banged up her face a

barrage of bruises her eyes were puffy and red her bottom lips split open barfight she said while sucking my earlobes [ __ ] got the worst of it barfight clearly this redhead was bad news I wanted to leave right then and there should have to then none of this would have happened but it was too late I was trapped she led me into her bedroom we did the dirty then I left having no intention of speaking to her again this time I meant it the redhead kept sending naughty pcks but I ignored them after a

week or so I thought she'd gotten the hint her messaging stopped then out of the blue ding my phone flew off the couch Rosetta's name splashed across the screen I groaned she sent me a song a song which has haunted me ever since I Put a Spell on You not the popular version but a much darker and Sinister sounding one I disliked it immediately I replied saying I was super busy which was true and that we should remain friends which was not true her response gave me chills irine things escalated I work at a local

music shop the following day my boss greeted me harshly he seemed upset look at this he handed me an old velvet on fire poster I gasped then I tripped and fell backwards knocking over an entire row of guitars you idiot my boss snapped that's coming off your pay grudgingly I gathered the guitars and checked for dings but my mind remained on the poster or more accurately the note written on the back of it herine the poster was nailed to the door my boss scoffed shaking his head people these days my mind went sideways the note

was written in Rosetta's Rosy lipstick was she stalking me who would do such a thing make matters worse later that week Mi messaged me with a song request I Put a Spell on You coincidence I told myself but I didn't believe it sometime later I met a lovely woman named Melanie who was cute and timid and polite she dressed modestly and wore little to no makeup she was the antithesis of Rosetta since falling forward were due to perform that weekend I invited her to the show Melanie was delighted as the weekend grew nearer so did

my anxiety this was a terrible idea we were playing the same hole in the wall as before Rosetta would certainly be there how would she react to seeing me with another woman maybe I hoped she would get the hint and leave me the hell alone oh how naive I was Melanie sat up front she seemed in good spirits but I was nervous I kept scanning the bar looking for you know who then as the band launched into I Put a Spell on You a cold shiver slid down my spine the borro room turned cold as

ice the redhead she sat next to Melanie I nearly died during set break I remained on stage acting busy truth is I was panicking how could I be so stupid the last thing I wanted was a confrontation on Q the red head came rushing over with beers she offered me one I said Thank you then awkwardly sat with Melanie who kept asking if I was okay I wasn't my pits were soaked with sweat I was tripping over my words barely able to speak all I could do was Sip my beer and pray something Dreadful didn't

happen the red head meanwhile was tapping the table with her razor like nails staring at me her cold and calculated glare gave me the creeps finally under the weight of the world I excused myself and went to the bar before my drink arrived a pair of icy fingers fondled my private parts hey handsome Rosetta's face was fiery red her lips like blackened cherries pursed into a scowl she cracked her Knuckles twice then nodded towards Melanie who's the [ __ ] her hand reached down cupping my ever shrinking testicles well you see I she squeezed wo

i freed myself then I scooted off to the restroom room away from prying eyes this is nuts I told myself splashing cold water on my face obviously the redhead wasn't playing with a full deck but what could I do about it I certainly couldn't ask her to leave and I wasn't about to ignore Melanie I was exasperated I took a deep breath then returned to the table Melanie was frantic her eyes trembling with Terror apparently Rosetta paid her a visit I could only assume it went poor L how dare you Melanie spat she marched out

of the bar leaving me with the bill and without a date you don't need that [ __ ] Rosetta snickered you're mine her hands booped my buttocks Nick sensing trouble meandered over time to play bro he said the band opened with New Orleans is Sinking a local bar band favorite everyone was dancing and singing along including Rosetta who jumped on stage and started grinding against me plunking the base strings then she tried pouring a full beer down my throat instead she soaked the stage and my base with Suds whooping and hollering she slipped and stumbled

off the stage resulting in a fantastic face plant taking a few patrons with her it was a total debacle a fight broke out soon thereafter she got ejected and the band was barred from ever performing there again the following day I received a long winded text from Melanie apparently Rosetta threatened to kill her if she ever spoke to me again yikes then the redhead went on to disparage my reputation not good Melanie concluded by saying she was busy and that we should just be friends oh Bittersweet irony I was heartbroken and Furious ding the redhead

I Put a Spell on You dang because her mine I responded hastily we are over her in fact we never were to further drive home the point I added please stay away I blocked her things settled for a while life went back to normal then my credit card bill arrived this must be a mistake I cried only it wasn't after an arduous hour chatting with the credit card company their conclusion was concrete someone was using my credit card to purchase pricey perfume clothes leather boots and accessories the redhead I spent the day chatting with the

cops who offered little help the redhead was ruining my life and it was up to me to stop her but how she denied everything of course and scolded me for such ludicrous accusations then she invited me back to her place the nerve of this woman the following week the unthinkable happened I was heading to bed when Dexter My adorable Dalmatian started going berserk he should have been sleeping cuddled in his cozy kennel in the yard not barking cursing The Mangy mut I went out back to check on him the night was moonless and Stark a

chill crept into my bones as I crunched along the yard the gate was open which was odd it should have been locked while locking the gate I detected a smattering of sweet smelling perfume the red hat Dexter calmed down after gobbling some tasty treats meanwhile I scanned the yard searching for intruders then I stormed inside angry and Confused sleep couldn't come how could it my mind kept returning to the red head and what deplorable Deeds she was doing the following morning I went outside to feed the dog my heart was pounding Like a Kick Drum

at a heavy metal concert quickly I panicked something was wrong first off the gate was open again plus Dexter was being quiet too quiet which is unlike him as I inched cautiously towards the kennel the sweet smell of perfume grew stronger when I reached the kennel I gasped my heart sank into my shoes before me was Dexter stewing in a pool of blood and gore on the back scribbled in Crimson colored blood was a note herine I vomited Connor my roommate was glaring at me from the kitchen his eyes searing with suspicion when I told

him what happened he turned ghost white then he called the cops who again were of little help I was unhinged terrible thoughts tore through my troubled mind why Dexter what did he do to deserve such a fate and why me for that matter I'm not a bad guy then with a heavy heart I buried my dead dog Dexter the feeling of being watched was impossible to ignore somewhere close was the redhead taunting me proving this a song wafted through the crisp early morning air I Put a Spell on You dang unknown sender with shaky movements

I found my phone and shrieked on my phone was a picture of me burying Dexter ding or next I raced into the house and locked all the doors grief held me in its terrible grip while I wept this was all too much too fast ding sign I looked down and nearly died I Put a Spell on You my phone read Because or mine I had a guy who showed up in my college in between my classes we went to colleges in two different cities and this was only 2 3 days after the first date he

managed to figure out my entire class schedule from things I mention offand like oh I have to wake up early tomorrow for my 8:00 a.m. class or my French has gone downhill I'm going to do so badly in that class reading my school's class requirements to figure out what the Freshman required classes are going through every post on my Facebook wall to read posts from friends that gave him more clues on what classes I'm taking sneaking through my bag when I went to the bathroom while we were on a date and to check out what

I was reading when he arrived huge nerd I carry study material everywhere the fact that I asked for Cal help and he found out I was taking Cal 3 for engineering students and it was a more advanced class than what he was taking going through my University's class list and map to figure out likely class combinations I nearly screamed when I saw him there creepy guy wanted to dump him on the second date but he pulled the I'm depressed card and I was young enough to buy it at that time lasted three painful months [Music]

I was going to drive from DC to Charlotte North Carolina alone I figured why not post in the ride share section to get some company and gas money a guy messages me saying that he's interested in joining me for the ride but he lives in Richmond Virginia no problem Richmond is on the way I respond with some information about myself and my interests seeing as though I'm planning to spend sever several hours with this guy he replies asking if we can drop off a duffel bag in Petersburg Virginia it sounds a bit suspicious but sure

I tell him no problem we're 3 days away from the day we're supposed to leave he messages me saying that he's not sure if he can go anymore because he's still waiting to hear back from his probation officer he then goes on telling me how much of a [ __ ] she is for making him check in and that he shouldn't even be required to notify her before he leaves the state of Virginia I didn't reply [Music] I was on a flight back from Thailand we were flying to Detroit via Toronto well a major storm

had us stuck in Toronto for a day and a half every flight it seemed like we might leave then at the last second we wouldn't I got to talking to a few people because we kept seeing each other for every possible flight out finally I tell this guy I've been chatting with man of this we're only a few hours from Detroit I'm renting a car he said yeah me too I said well if you want to save money we can just share a car I could see from the look on his face that his butthole

puckered hard enough to make diamonds he no doubt thought I was bringing in drugs and would land him in prison for life obviously we drove separately he was sort of Vindicated for each possible flight we had to go through customs each time which meant I had what looked like about six trips from United State to Canada in 2 days with tailand thrown in as well you better believe they searched the living [ __ ] out of my car at the border like 4 hours of searching when I female was 19 I was looking for a

room to rent in the city I was moving to for college it was about an hour away from my family I wasn't having much luck and my mom started helping me look for a plate she found an ad on Craiglist for a room for $300 in a house everything included the homeowner was a man and he rented the additional rooms upstairs to other women while he lived in the finished basement the ad stated he rarely ever saw the other roommates because he had a kitchen and his own entrance downstairs and that he preferred women because

he had issues with male roommates in the past partying and causing damage we decided to take a look since it was the cheapest that we could find in the area my mom and I went to the house to view it decent house decent neighborhood he opened the door and was very welcoming he was middle-aged and the kitchen and living room were furnished nicely and clean my mom loves to talk and get to know people so they were engaged in conversation while I stood there quietly and observed the place he then said he would show me

my room we we head towards the staircase to go up as I thought since he said on the phone my room was upstairs with the other roommates but he opens another door and we follow he takes us down to the basement and opens a door to a very small room no closet and no windows he proceeds to say this is my room and I will be sharing the bathroom in the hallway with him and his bedroom did not have a door on it I was definitely thinking absolutely not this is weird but they were so

deep in conversation that I couldn't interject he then leads us to the upstairs and shows us the other rooms which the door doors were open and says they are currently rented he then starts telling us elaborate stories about the other women not very nice stories describing drinking problems my mom was listening intently but I took the time to investigate further I looked in all three rooms in the bathrooms there was Furniture but not a single item in there that looked like it belonged to a woman no clothes or anything only men's clothes in one of

the closets he had no problem with me creeping around his tenants rooms without their permission I then heard him tell my mom that he has some of his stuff in their closets but they don't mind and I'm just like um why the hell would a tenant pay you for you to use their space as storage I was feeling really uncomfortable and started moving them back downstairs as they talked my mom had mentioned when we arrived that her and my dad were going on vacation the next week but I couldn't go because I had to work

he brought it up again and that I should come by the next week and have dinner with him and the roomies to see if we would all get along I said sure and we left as soon as we got in the car I told my mom I would definitely not be living there she was dumbfounded I had to explain to her not only did he lie about the room I would be in that I was not supposed to be in the basement with him as well as share a bathroom with him and he didn't even

have a damn door but also did she not notice how no one else even lived there she still didn't get it and thought I was just being paranoid and thought he was nice and it was a cheap deal I had to explain it to my stepdad and get him to tell her by no means would I'd be living there I tried to report the post but by the time we got home that day he removed it I think he planned on murdering me at dinner or abducting me and holding me hostage in that basement room

that had no way to escape I hope that guy hits a tree with his car one day edit some details have been coming back to me since I've been answering all of your questions this happened in 2011 so it's been quite a while when he took us upstairs there was a wide Landing that was surrounded by the rooms as soon as we go up there he motions towards one of the rooms and started this long intricate story about the woman who lived in there and talking about her alcoholism and a crazy ex he was very

exaggerated in how he talked with a lot of gestures my mom stood there listening to him I don't know if it was sheer distraction or she didn't want to be rude not listening but either way I don't recall her ever having a good look around those rooms I went and looked all doors were open had neatly made beds with dark wood bed frames bureaus with mirrors and nightstands there were sliding mirror closets and they were empty except for onead men's clothes hanging pushed against one corner nothing was on the nightstands other than a lamp and

nothing on the bureaus I went into the bathrooms and there was nothing on the vanity and the other than hand soap I looked in the showers too but nothing other than bar soap the bedroom on the left had an empty suitcase laying open on the middle of the bed this was one of the rooms with the empty closet after seeing all this I came back onto the landing and started slowly heading down the stairs they were still talking and absent-mindedly followed me down to the living room that's when he mentioned dinner and we left shortly

after I think that's why my mom didn't notice a lot and didn't believe me at first she didn't take more than a quick glance upstairs and when we were in the basement he was just as as talking do a commenter on here who works with law enforcement pointed out this was probably a sex trafficking situation the bedroom in the basement is where a victim is kept drugged and abused until broken and then trafficked I honestly think this is more plausible with the situation as well as my city is actually a hot spot for that I'm

so grateful we got out of there and I hope my experience could help someone one day notice the details and get out of the situation safely stay safe and blessed people could use a throwaway but it's also not really a big deal I thought I was bisexual for the longest time because I always had an interest in guys since high school not in any other way than I wanted to try giving head well sure enough I took the good old Craigs List to find a Suitor for my request found a guy texted and he drove

down and I met him in his car that wasn't really anything but a simple transaction just a blow and go type Arrangement but I realized as soon as I put it in my mouth that I was without a doubt 100% undeniably straight the thing is he didn't take too kindly to me not finishing him and said that he had put the child locks on the door and I wasn't allowed to leave thankfully either he forgot or was bluffing but I tried the door and booked it into someone's backyard I wasn't so much frightened as I

was trying to get the taste in my mouth sold an iPhone on about 3 years ago and met the buyer in a grocery store parking lot the dude looked precisely like one of the cousins from Breaking Bad even down to the boots he told me if there was anything wrong with the phone there were ways of finding me he then tried to give me $75 less than what we agreed to when I corrected him he stared me down for about 15 seconds then handed the remaining money to me after that show of Bravery I immediately

changed my number deleted that email and haven't been on Craigslist since trust me when I tell you this don't use Craigslist I know that may be obvious it's not ideal meeting up with a stranger and giving them money and giving them your address or going to their house about a week ago I decided I needed a new phone I chose to look on craigslist I found the perfect deal a new iPhone 12 for only 400 bucks what a steal I tried to contact the person that is selling the iPhone but he didn't respond well that's

weird but I didn't think much about it over the next couple of days I continued to message him but he still didn't respond but finally he did he only sent me his address and only his address which was weird when I responded he didn't say anything after that so the next day I decided to go to this guy's house which was a really stupid move looking at it now when driving down the rocky Street it seemed like nobody lived in any house on the street but ignoring that red flag I went to his house seeing

the house it was dark the wood was old and uneven but once again I ignored that as well when walking to the front door I noticed the grass was uncut and rough it went up to my knees when I approached the front door it just swung open which startled me hey what the hell I said almost falling on the rocky floor do you want the phone or not a man said in a deep and dark voice uh yeah I have $400 in cash is that what you want I spoke yeah that'll work he said I

walked up and gave him the money he snatched it from me and slammed the door in my face I started to yell hey man what the f I said angered he didn't open the door for what it seemed like hours but when he finally did he just stuck his arm out with the phone after I grabbed it and thanked him after I said Oh by way what's your name he paused then he said John John Smith after that I turned around and walked away but I didn't hear him close the door when I turned on

my car I looked at the door I saw him I saw him still staring at me creeped out I put all my weight on the gas pedal and floored down the street when I got home I was way too tired to actually set up the phone I I fell asleep once my head hit the pillow when I woke up and I turned the phone on but I noticed something strange something unusual I noticed that the phone was still signed in with the last person probably the creepy guy that sold it to me so feeling a

little nosy and curious I opened the phone what an idiot I said laughing that guy didn't even have a password this is too easy I thought after opening the phone and going to the homepage I immediately went to the photos app after opening the app there was nothing there were no photos in the camera rule weirded out I went to the photo albums and then when I found something the photo album was titled a fun night with a winking Emoji at first I thought the pictures or videos in there would be very different but they

weren't there were only two videos both with a black thumbnail then I did something I regret I played the first video when the first video started to play it was a black screen the only sound I heard was soft rain after a few seconds the camera quickly panned up it made me jump it was so quick and sudden the camera was turned to look at a car outside the camera stayed fixed on that car for more than 30 seconds what the hell is this I thought to myself confused then a woman actually opened the car

door and got out of the car I did not know this woman nor have I seen her after the camera wouldn't move away from her a man started laughing in a maniacal tone then he said can't wait to have a fun night with you he said in a scratchy voice that's when I stopped my breath I knew that voice that voice was the same as the man that sold me this damn phone thoughts began racing in my mind was he a murderer I thought is this video a prank after the first video ended I went

to the second video I noticed this one was exponentially longer than the first one while the first one was 2 minutes long this one was 7 Minutes the same thing happened like in the first one it started out as a black screen with rain in the background but the difference was it was in an abandoned warehouse then around 45 seconds in I heard soft quite crying cries of a woman shut your mouth the same man yelled she stopped immediately the camera panned to look at the woman he stood the camera up against the wall of

the warehouse she was the same woman that got out of the car I started to become light-headed because of this is this a sick joke I thought did he actually kidnap her then the man reached his arm out to caress her knee she started to whimper like a sad dog then right after she started to cry he slapped her right in the face shut up I said in a loud and demanding tone once again she stopped the man then grabbed a knife out of his pocket and cut the rope around her mouth she started panting

and breathing really heavy the man then said in a man maniacal tone I want to have a little fun in one swift motion he pushed the woman down and brought the knife up to her chin he moved the knife around her jawline blood started to leak out under her chin then he dropped the knife and started to choke her she started to turn purple then she became lifeless he then picked up the knife and started to carve a wide smile in her face after he finished the smile he grabbed the camera and showed her wide

and bloody smile he started laughing and said wasn't this fun after seeing this I jumped out of my bed and drove to the police station after I gave the police the phone they figured out the man and the woman in the videos for legal reasons I will just say their first names the man's name is Dale and the woman's name was Jesse the man was convicted of murder and is now in prison for life the woman sadly died from blood loss like I said in the intro don't use Craigs list I was selling a used

washer and dryer on Craiglist after the house I bought already had a washer and dryer so selling the old ones I brought from my apartment I had them for $100 each which was a steal for the make and model of each with just a single year of use I sent additional photos for one buyer and we agreed on $90 each if he bought both he shows up in his truck and I'm foolish enough to help him load them in the back of his truck before getting paid the moment he closed the tailgate of the truck

hey man will you take $70 each I told him we already agreed on a price but he got angry with me for holding him to it saying he already loaded them and did not want to unload them I opened his tailgate which made him begin to shout for me to not touch his truck I ignored him and began undoing the ratchet straps before he pulled out the full $180 in cash paid me and drove off shouting at me in front of my neighbors dozens of great experiences on Craiglist some tried to haggle on arrival but

most have been cool when I refused worst I've had thankfully in college my girlfriend at the time and I needed to find an apartment for only one semester which was impossible to find affordably in a college town we ended up looking on Craigslist and living in a tube row with this guy let's call him Dirty Dan Dirty Dan was in his early 30s he was pretty much a stereotype nerd really tall and chubby a gross beard and really long gross hair love Dungeons and Dragons and video games and stuff like that but he seemed nice

and he had a fully furnished apartment and the rent was low Dirty Dan became a terror to us here are some of his traits his nice demeanor turned out to be the stereotype nice guy Behavior he was low-key an [ __ ] and thought that acting polite entitled him to female attention he didn't go to school or work because he received social security for some undisclosed medical problem which meant he never left the house ever which would be one thing but he never left the living room despite having his own large bedroom he spent all

of his time in there including constantly falling asleep on the couch for hours and snoring we basically could not use the living room unless we wanted to hang out with him which we didn't because he drove us crazy when we had friends over and did use the living room he would just sit there awkwardly and silently on his computer while we were hanging out or watching a movie with them then he would try to watch let's play videos on his laptop with the volume up and no headphones while we were all there or he would

fall asleep while we were all watching a movie and snore he also only laid down never sat up so he always took up half the count he would invite himself to things we were doing like we would be leaving to go somewhere and he would just leave with us and invite himself he got into some polyamorous relationship with two incredibly annoying girls they would always be over in the living room too and they spent most of their time discussing their sex life loudly or looking at BDS and porn on his ya internet browser he acted

super creepy to any female friend we brought over and as soon as they left would try to friend them on Facebook and hit on them he would drink all or alcohol he was super passive aggressive [ __ ] and paranoid he became convinced that we were legitimately going to try and steal his cats after we made a passing joke about it he was totally filthy wor the same like thermal man leggings and t-shirt every day the bathroom and fridge were disgusting when we moved in and if we didn't diligently clean them he would let them

become disgusting again we grew to basically spend all our time in the apartment in our room and absolutely hate having to interact with him he had no social graces at all and was passive aggressive [ __ ] and I heard more about his mountain troll sex life than anyone should kill Dirty Dan had just bought an old house needed some roommates to help pay the bills it was preg GFC and I doubt the bank would have lent me $300 plus on a $35 scal today the few people who responded included a girl who wanted to

know where she could put her five wardrobes and another girl who wanted to know what equestrian facilities I was offering even though I kept telling her that its only equin link was that there were horses in a paddock on the other side of the road okay but do you have Arena how many seats does it have eventually I was forced to lower my already very low standards and took on some very subpar housemates housemate one was as skinny as a rake and took my hay I'm cool you can smoke whatever in the Big Shed if

you want to mean hey why don't you and all your mates spend every night in the shed blasting Metallica Through tiny speakers leaving bongs everywhere and using my jars of nuts and Nails as target practice housemate to seemed like a better candidate he was unmarried morbidly obese in between jobs but was qualified former chemical engineer with no pets only he wasn't firstly the day before he moved in he admitted that he had a malti terrier and had intentionally not mentioned it because he hadn't been able to find a place that would let him have a

pet I hate yappy dogs but to credit it was pretty chill later I discovered that qualified chemical engineer code for once worked at a paint factories then he started bringing very young boys into his room at random hours who he introduced as his nephews even though they very clearly were not as if that wasn't disturbing enough they actively avoided me and did not look or talk to anyone else in the house as if they had been instructed to stay quiet he and his dog would spend the entire day sleeping in his room as in he

may emerge once or twice a day to use the bathroom or kitchen but that was it the dog had a bowl which he kept full of food at all times which brought in mice from outside I asked him to feed his dog by putting food in it once a day and he informed me that it wouldn't be possible as the dog likes to snack I told him that the mice had to go and if that meant his dog had to go then so be it he took the bowl away predictably this made him get even

bigger he must have been more than 200 by this stage but it wasn't caused by him sleeping all day he blamed it on the chemicals at the paint factory he once worked at in fact he was trying to get a Disability Pension so he wouldn't have to work again eventually the arguments between Metallica housemate and lazy housemate over The Late Night music got to the point where lazy housemate took out an Avo against Metallica housemate because he threatened to stab his dog when he shouted at him to turn the music down I decided the drama

wasn't worth two X100 per week so I kicked them both out a dear friend of mine who has since passed away hired a gardener through Craigslist The Gardener robbed him when my friend went to a different state for a wedding and kidnapped my friend's roommate Gardener stole his car drove his stuff and the roommate to another state dropped it off with Gardener's Brothers where the roommate was held hostage for a day the stuff including plasma TV was fenced during this time my friend gets home from his wedding and his garage door is open other car

is gone and no one in sight he walks inside to find his two dogs locked in a closet having eaten pillows for food they needed surgery later he calls the cops later that evening the roommate calls my friend for a pay phone he was released by The Brothers after all the stuff was fenced but the gardener took the car and led police on high-speed chase the gardener spent some time in jail and sent my friend a Christmas car that year apologizing this story is completely true and if anyone wants more Deets I can answer questions

it was told to me by my friend I miss him very much at a restaurant in what I considered to be the greatest story ever told to me it came up because one guy at the table was talking about how great Craigslist is and my friend said well actually let me tell you a story in a really bad place of my life meet a girl off Craigslist dated whole thing turned South pretty fast but being in a really bad place in my life ignored all the warning signs broke contacted moved away moved on with my

life couple months later she sent me a text saying I know what you did at the felony the cops will come after you now being afraid this women I called her and said wood F apparently someone posted a video of her onto one of those revenge porn sites I told her I never did it and I'm happy now and don't want to be dragged down by her because I was happy now hung up and thought nothing of it fast forward two weeks and she sent me a long text message that she was the one that

posted it there and was hoping it would be the attention she needed to bring me back into her life that's when I changed my phone number depression and Craigslist dating do not [Music] mix was looking for roommate somehow this person thought I was a girl kept sending dpics and I kept texting I am a dude he was like sure girl the things I would do blah blah finally I had enough told this guy come to my house idiot shows up with flowers I come out and tell look at a dude not a chick he tells
