[Music] let me start by saying that I really enjoy driving and I often be on the road for hours just listening to music and getting lost some more often than not I will sleep in my car on the side of the country road I don't like it when I'm the passenger though so I always go alone usually I sleep for a bit wake up then go home without incident there's been a couple of times when a deer has startled me or even a person knocking my window to make sure I was okay was met with a scream but what happened last night takes the absolute cake I took my dogs up to a really nice walk I had read about online it was about a five hour drive and I had planned to drive for about an hour at a time explore for a bit then keep going so the dogs didn't get restless or bored I had taken plenty of food and water and was planning to be gone for about a day which I was and was going to a park in a popular parking spot the caravanners and the like tend to stay overnight it was lovely and myself and the dogs had a really good time we arrived at our sleeping destination and found that there wasn't any space to park the bays weren't laid out so you just kind of had to use your common sense and find a spot where you weren't blocking anyone in the parking area was free in could only contain about ten cars or vans without it being too tight I was a little annoyed but hey ho it's a very rural area so I carried on for a little while and pulled into a lay-by to rest before I drove home I let the dogs out to do their business and then went to sleep thinking nothing of it to describe where I had parked it was opposite a little cottage but not directly in front of it and there were plenty of trees so I didn't feel as though I was intruding on the owners in any way I felt very safe for some reason I was having trouble nodding off usually I slept like a baby in my car because it is very spacious and comfortable and as silly as it may sound to some I genuinely thought I had nothing to worry about that was until a long high-pitched scratching sound woke me and the dogs up at about 11 p.m. just after I had drifted off the dogs went nuts as they usually do at the drop of a hat and I was still in a confused days when I saw a very tall middle-aged man dragging what I thought was a key around the perimeter of my car he walked very slowly and didn't take his eyes off of me the entire time he also had a very malicious grin on his face horrified I cranked my chair up and started the car ready to floor it but he didn't made his way to the front of my bonnet and trees were blocking me from reversing this is when I saw that he was holding a butcher's knife he held it up and sort of waved it at me I screamed and laid on the horn and my dogs had left over the back seat and were practically frothing at the mouth and it didn't seem to faze him this lasted about 10 to 15 seconds not long and then he just slowly walked away across the road and into the cottage I drove home without stopping now I'm never never doing that again thanks for ruining it for me genuinely terrifying man and thanks for ruining my paintwork I don't know if he was trying to teach me a lesson for parking outside of his house or what but either way it will probably be scarred for life [Music] one time I went to the bar with one of my friends I had just turned 21 so I haven't bended too many bars up to that point my friend was drinking on the way to the bar so he was already pretty drunk when we got there when I said at the bar a cute girl came and talked to me and my friend she said her name was Candace and I noticed that she had really really bright red hair I assume she dyed it it was pretty but unnatural this girl was flirting with me and my friend she could tell my friend was already pretty out of it to be honest I played along like I was drunk already too since it seemed to be working for my friend I didn't know if she was just trying to get a free drink so I told her we didn't have much money she offered to buy us drinks she kept buying a strengths and I started to get confused as to who she liked between me and my friend my friend went to the bathroom before he came back he was kicked out by the bouncers he obviously went a little too far Candace and I went outside with him she kept telling him to go home with her he was so out of it he could barely answer her I told her he was too drunk and that I couldn't let him go anywhere I didn't want him to wake up hungover in some random house with no car and no idea what happened Candace kept pushing it saying that she would take care of him but I told her no because I had to stay with them I was more sober than him he was my responsibility I told her the only way he was going anywhere was if I tagged along I assumed that she thought that I was jealous or something but my friend could barely stand and lost interest in Candace already at that point she immediately started flirting with me and offered to get my friend a taxi to drive him home and said we could go to her place alone at this point I had a few drinks and I was pretty buzzed so I agreed we took my friend of the taxi and walked to her car I slightly stumbled on the way to her car you're pretty drunk huh she said smiling as she held onto my arm yeah I said I don't know why but I just felt slightly shy and anxious everything was just happening too easy for me so I felt a little uneasy we got into her car we drove down the street want to stop at the liquor store and get some more to drink I'll buy it see I want to worry about paying she offered I didn't want to drink any more than I already did I was already buzzed and wouldn't be able to carry myself throughout the rest of the night sometimes I made myself look stupid when I'm drunk so I didn't want to ruin anything with Candice more than I already did earlier what telling her my friend was too drunk I told her I was already drunk enough but she insisted I didn't want to seem lame so I told her to get me a pint of liquor with some apple juice to chase it she went in the store and came out with a lot more than just a pint I assumed she wanted to drink more also and that's why she got a 5th instead of a pint on the car ride we passed the bottle back and forth but she took tiny sips I tried to take tiny sips but she kept passing me the bottle and telling me to drink I somehow managed to drink all of my apple juice sin pretended to drink the bottle by spitting the liquor in the apple juice bottle I tossed the apple juice bottle full of liquor out the window before she saw it I didn't wanted to know that I was acting drunker than I was she actually believed that was sloppy drunk when I was simply bust I took a couple of more sips of liquor and finished the bottle throughout the car ride I called her the wrong name a couple of times to get a reaction out of her she didn't react to it she just kept letting me call her Carla without correcting me for some reason I thought she lied to me about her name initially we drove up to her house I pretended to trip and stumble into her front door she helped me walk inside by holding me up she opened her front door which was unlocked we walked in her house she closed the front door and then locked it I thought that was strange but assumed that she didn't want anyone walking I told her that I'd to use the bathroom I walked into her bathroom locked the door and looked in the mirror I just felt strange I felt like something was off I felt myself becoming more drunk from finishing the bottle earlier I turn on the sink to make noise and made myself puke up the liquor that I had drank I flushed and went to the sink and started drinking the tap water out of my hands to sober up I just didn't want to be drunk but I still wanted to hook up with Candice so I wanted to pretend to be drunk I turned the sink off and I could hear her talking to someone he's drunk he can barely stand up you do it who was she talking to and do what I walked out of the bathroom and into the living room the moment I stepped into the living room I saw her walking into another room all I could see was the back of her head that strange very bright red hair go into another room I didn't see her face or anything I just saw her kind of walk fast into the room the living room was pretty dark Hey well where are you going ice learned like I was drunk she walked back into the dark living room and up to me let's go in my room she said I looked at her bright red hair and then into her eyes they were different her face was different it was another girl with the same hair that's when I realized it was another girl with the same wig on it was a wig the whole time she had changed it with the girl from earlier for whatever reason my heart felt like it stopped but I tried to look like I had no idea it was a different girl I kind of smiled at her and told her I just needed to use the bathroom one more time and told her that I was sorry that was so drunk she said it's fine just hurry up in there I went into the bathroom and locked the door I heard her whisper something to someone again this time I think I heard a male voice whisper back I honestly didn't concentrate on listening to exactly what she said something sketchy was going on and I had to get out of that house I opened the bathroom window and jumped straight out of it and ran faster than I have ever ran in my life I didn't look behind myself for anything I just ran through the backyard jumped the fence ran through someone else's backyard hit a road and ran toward the main road I kept running down the main road until I saw a star CBS I ran into the CBS and stood straight at the front of the store in front of the camera I called a taxi and went home I try to think what happened that night what was she were they planning that night why did she tell me a fake name why was she trying to get my friend and I so drunk I thought maybe a robbery but she kept spending money on us she kept buying US drinks and even paid for my friend's taxi cab and mostly why did she wear a wig that she gave to another girl to wear who was she talking to what did it mean and what was in that room they tried to lure me into [Music] I live in the valley of Sacramento California a few miles from the American River this particular River is only a short walk from a vintage part of my town where there are absolutely nothing but chickens and family-owned businesses my first job was a family owned coffee shop when I was 16 in that little town to give you some backstory now a lot of homeless folk often flocked to the river and would often wonder in my shop I dealt with the odd bodies on and off almost every day without care however there was one weirdo who I remember vividly enough that it still makes me sit and wonder when I was new to the shop it took some time to get to know regulars and remember their names I had a lot of faces to memorize one face in particular for some reason sat in my mind far above others a stout bald man with a wide nose and thinly rimmed glasses he wasn't quite old but he wasn't the youngest man I met he would stand outside my store for about ten minutes every day before coming in to stand in the back of the cafe and watch me and my other co-workers clean and make coffee sometimes he wouldn't order anything but when he did he would always get a small black coffee and a small serving of potato salad he would always ask for napkins and he would always ask for a pen after ordering he would proceed to write things down in one of the napkins leave his empty coffee cup on the table and take his food out the door where he would stand and watch us pick up his trash I noticed over time that he seemed to look irritated when I wasn't the one to do so every time he did this he would leave small notes and poor and rough handwriting he would then throw away his salad outside his notes were more personal at first I thought of it is nothing more than a sweet thank you I often write small notes to servers on receipts from time to time things like wonderful day thank you slowly became more queer over time beautiful day take a break I'm outside you look lovely today I love your hair my coworkers would make a gag out of the notes if they weren't thrown away before reading once I assume he figured out that the other girls were the ones grabbing them he began to leave them on the end of the counter where my espresso machine was you make me happy keen one of them read I still don't know how he learned my name or who he asked but I presume one of my co-workers on the day I was off and began to get increasingly uncomfortable whenever he would stand outside and watch me work or when he would order from my till I could only smile and thank him as I got his coffee and salad customer service voice and all this next part is where it gets interesting one week toward the end of summer he worked his routine of window shopping before ordering asking for napkins and a pen and going about his letter however he did not ask for a pen or napkins and proceeded to only ask for coffee he left to the restroom I forgot how long he was in there since I myself took my lunch break as soon as the order was done and I returned I was told that someone had left their cup in the restroom and it had been emptied and left on top of the toilet when I went in there and checked it was filled with baby gravy if you know what I mean I honestly don't know if it was him but the timing was too close to not assume I did not see him after that for a while because I traded my early starts for closing shifts the last time I had seen him he came in late I presume he found this out either by stalking or asking my coworkers why I was no longer a morning maid he asked me kindly for a cup of coffee and a potato salad a pen and a napkin I obliged but I was hardly enthusiastic and the routine went normally he drank his coffee satin wrote left on the counter without looking up and walked out into the night he didn't stop to watch he didn't throw away a salad you're lovely every time thank you for the smiles leave the glitter to the blondes I don't even know what that means he also said you're a young flower amongst the sunset keen after that I never saw him coming to the store or lurk outside of the window I don't often lend out pens as much as I used to the story happened almost two years ago it was summertime and I was about to turn 21 even after the fact I still looked as though I was underage for reference I am a female fairly short and baby-faced this particular summer I worked at a truck stop combined with two fast-food chains I worked in one of the fast-food areas something else to mention is that this truck stop was located right next to a very busy highway this meant that we received an abundance of customers on a daily basis our fast food chain was employed only by women particularly high school students as this area did not have many places to find work once it began working there I immediately began to notice that one man stood out every time he came into our workplace this man was in his 40s with black hair a thin stick of a man dressed in all black and wearing fedora no matter what he always wore the fedora as someone who had just started working there I really made it a point to focus on making connections with the customers making eye contact introducing myself lots of smiling basically just trying to be the best employee that I could be the first time this man came in he was straight faced and did not speak much I took his order and when he left my co-workers began to talk about how he was a weird guy the doorman would come into our workplace every single day and comment on my very underage co-workers appearances even go as far as to ask for their phone numbers my co-workers have told him many times that they are not interested underage etc and this did nothing to deter him I was immediately concerned but trying to give him the benefit of the doubt my second encounter with Fedora man was vastly different this time Fedora man seemed eager to see me I recall so vividly how he watched me serve every single customer in line each time he got closer to ordering his smile would grow wider and wider pictured a closed smile turned wide with all of his teeth showing each time he got closer to me once it was his turn the first thing that came out of his mouth was eerily nicer than all the other girls here not once did that creepy smile leave his face I don't think I ever saw him blink I thanked him and continued with his order the doorman thanked me and off he went after about an hour or so of serving customers I was asked by the manager to step into her office and since I'd my manager gave me a heads-up that Fedora man called her gas station to personally let her know that I was a great addition to the team fab doorman also asked for my number my manager hoped that by telling fedora man that I was underage even though I wasn't and this didn't stop him from hitting on my other underage co-workers that this would to tear him from trying to get my number his exact words per my manager were I don't mind a little jailbait my manager left Fedora man know that this was incredibly inappropriate Fedora man simply laughed and hung up the phone as Fedora man had tried asking for multiple girls their number she managed to finally do something about it didn't notify our male supervisor the next day our supervisor approached Fedora man as he walked into the store they talked for a few moments before Fedora man stopped out he did not look happy later on my manager would tell me that our supervisor did not ban Fedora man from the store but rather let him know that he was making us uncomfortable this did not deter fedora man as he returned the next day and specifically asked for me I was nervous but still served him as it was my job this time the doorman asked for my number in person if I wasn't working I would have said no God no but as I was on the clock I politely declined Fedora man continued to smile and show all of his teeth the doorman continued to return every single day and specifically asked for me after a few days of this going on I finally broke down and asked to work in the back of the store every time he came in so I could avoid seeing him Fedora man made me incredibly uncomfortable and I wanted to avoid seeing him as much as possible the last time I ever saw a doorman was a week or two right before summer ended after weeks of trying desperately to avoid Fedora man things finally came to a boil on this day I worked the early shift and therefore began to do the usual stuff turn on machines prepping items etc my manager was the only one with me and she had stepped out for a few moments for a cigarette break usually we don't get customers that early in the morning my guard was down and since I was in the back of the store where no customers were allowed it's a music playing I was singing along to the music and prepping for the day when I saw a black mass start to the right of me I turned off my music and asked if anyone was there no answer as I was already jittery from Fedora man I simply told myself that I was overreacting and turned on my music once more after a few moments I felt someone behind me I turned do you think it was I let out a Yelp and surprised which only made fedora man laugh heartily the doorman stated that he was hungry and wanted some food I immediately began to scold him and remind him that this area was for workers only at this point my manager returns from her cigarette break and sees that Fedora man is in the back of the store she shouts at him to leave in states she doesn't even like you and the biggest voice she could muster Fedora man smiled his toothy smile and simply walked to the front of the store I refused to serve him and let my manager know that he needed to be banned from the store I wish I could say that this story had a happy ending but it doesn't I ended up leaving that job a week later and haven't gone back since I occasionally talked to my old co-workers and they've let me know that Fedora man still comes in every day hitting only underage girls there and asking when I'll be coming back to work [Music] Ambala and months ago I started working in a big corporate retail store that specializes in tech mostly high-end goods part time I'm a female six foot tall in my late 20s and a former n-c-double-a water polo player my job at said store was more behind the scenes my primary duties were to answer calls and assist with orders complaints and scheduling via the phones my secondary duties would be to assist the front lanes when lines got long I'm friendly outgoing and loved chat with customers some regulars I joke around with about various topics but nothing unprofessional nothing suggestive and I never expressed interest in any customer all of this happens in a two month period one day a customer older gentleman mid to late 60s six foot five to six foot seven who has become a feud a regular comes up to me while I'm at a register and is making a purchase while holding a coffee and jokingly I ask where my coffee was and he proceeds to offer to get me a coffee I declined his offer several times with oh no I was joking thank you though and go about my day over the next couple of days I am noticing the sky more and more and I'm doing quite a few checkouts for him and there is small talk as most customer service agents have with regulars but he starts to mention highly personal details about me that I have never brought up in conversation I don't discuss my personal life with customers unless it is relevant to the conversation at hand these comments include my route to work what kind of car I Drive and the stickers that are on the back of my car the college I went to what apartment complex I live in and what types of decorations I have outside my front door in the first couple of times these tidbits are brought up I brush them off as slip-ups or he must have overheard me saying something to someone but then he starts asking for my phone number I decline giving him my number stating it's against policy so he starts insisting I take his number and call him again it is stated that this is against policy I will add I specifically say it is against corporate policy for me to take customers information and I don't hand out my information not to customers I'm sorry as the day's progressed he starts catching me as I come out from behind the register to run over to another department in our store for something again I am neither a shorts nor small woman and I do not physically intimidate easily but this guy who towers over me repeatedly places himself in front of me and demands I give him my number this happened three or four times each time and day he's getting closer to my personal space demanding my phone number and information so he can call me when there are times he doesn't get me as his checkout associate he gets angry and irate physically attempting to insert himself into my space to demand my information and there are several times co-workers have to remove me physically from the situations because he is causing such a scene and getting so close to me they are worried for my safety at this point I'm starting to get freaked out and I'm feeling unsafe in my work environment so I bring it up to a couple of my supervisors who just laugh it off and say I'm being paranoid my dad is getting calls from me almost daily telling him about my encounters and what this guy said or did so finally he says I need to go talk to the police and see what they suggest I do since my supervisors aren't doing anything about it I go and talk to the PD explain the situation and end up in tears and shaking because it is finally hitting me that this guy is stalking and harassing me and I feel helpless they fill out a report and tell me to take it to my supervisors to see if they can get pictures and information on the sky so the police department can contact him and issue a trespass banning him from the property I bring the case number to my supervisors who start to do some digging I will repeat my primary job is behind the scenes in a cave and I am barely out at the registers during my shifts they find that in a 30 day period I had processed over 17 trans actions with this one customer and that he had been coming in four to five times a week sometimes twice a day to buy $10 gift cards from our store after taking pictures of his license plate an info from work the police were able to find out that this guy lived over an hour and a half away from the store and he was driving almost three hours every day just to make a purchase then the security footage is looked at and my supervisors noticed they have no clear image of this guy he knew where our store security cameras were located in pointing and hit his face and actual height by hunching over from the cameras they also noticed that there were a points were he would be in the store for about 35 to 45 minutes at a time just looking at the front registers waiting for me to appear so he can make his purchase with me if he didn't get me the first time he would come back an hour or so later right as I was about to get off of work because he knew the generics of my schedule with no clear picture the store had to wait on me to see this guy and point him out to the supervisors so they could issue the verbal trespass to him he was able to come in and continue to harass me and threaten me for my information a few times because nobody really knew what he looked like and by the time I had called for a supervisor he had left or they didn't know enough about the situation to trespass him it took another two weeks before I was able to get a supervisor to trespass him from the store he had cornered me again and had harassed me for my number and to check him out at the register but I was able to slip away and the supervisor approached him saying he was trespassed for harassing employees he flat-out denied that it was him and said that they were mistaken when the police department called him telling him the boundaries of the trespass and asking for his side of the story he told them I was just a girl that never told him no to a date and that it's my fault for not telling him no he insisted that he shouldn't be banned from the store because if I really didn't want him to bother me I should have told him so I saw him around my complex for a couple of weeks and a few months later I quit retail because I didn't feel comfortable there I loved working there but I'd rather just never meet this guy again I'm a 24 year old female that moved from Orlando Florida to 18 miles outside of Faldo stage Oranje middle of nowhere to my family farm never had any issues in Orlando but I got divorced and had to move in with my mom it was my two small boys and I we moved into one of the old farm houses of my family's farm and it needed a lot of work it was a bedroom SAN a mother-in-law suite when we moved in we only had two rooms cleaned up and worked on the rest of the house over the course of nine months and across the streets we will call Jay was very helpful from day one he would come almost every day as he was feeding up his animals and helping with anything I needed over the course of nine months I never had any issues and thought he was just a friendly middle-aged man I never felt he had any ill intentions the farmhouse was in a u-shape the Ramon shows had windows in the courtyard area this was the middle of the house Jay had fenced in that area when I first moved in so I could let the boys play the farmhouse was in the middle of the farm and set off the road so I never had any worries of being watched mostly as my bedroom windows are in a fenced area in the middle of the house so I didn't put curtains on my bedroom or bathroom one day my son was playing under the carport and Jay pulled up in his truck he was going to look at my car for me Jay didn't make it to the carport before my eldest son says to me hey I seen him in my window last night later than nights I talked to my son and he told me he did see him out a window I asked him if it was the kitchen window because you can see his horse pasture and he stops to feed them every morning at night chalking it up to that I didn't think much else of it but other things that happened I guess you could say I wanted him to be the person I thought he was so I hope looked a lot my favorite candies somehow appeared in my fridge one day after school my mom told me she remembered me telling Jay it was my favorite someone sent me flowers every Friday for a couple of months I thought it was my ex-husband or possibly my boyfriend at the time neither man would admit to it my boyfriend jokingly told me it was Jay the next day I came home from school and my mom had the boys playing under the carport and Jay was working on my car my air suspension had a leak and Jay offered to look at it before I took it all the way to Tallahassee for the expensive repair I got out of my mom's car and he asked if I wanted to see the leak he had found as I bent over the hood Jay stepped back when I turned around I commented jokingly on his 90s era cell phone he had it in his hand that's the type you don't see anymore like a very early camera flip phone later that night we came inside and my mom told me she could swear that Jay had taken a picture of me on his phone I know it sounds crazy but I didn't believe her this man was seriously always friendly never any weird vibes from him if I offered to pay him it was always at cost and that was rare as he would not accept my money I should have known that people just aren't like that these days I guess I was very naive a couple of weeks later I was mowing my courtyard he was grown up pretty bad and as I got close to my window my heart literally sank into my butt I had a newly placed center block outside both windows in my bathroom window I can't tell you how but I knew at that point that I had made a huge mistake and everyone was right about Jay I called my friend and neighbor Josh to come look at the center blocks he ran home and got a deer cam attaching it to a tree outside my window and this was at 3 p.m. in the afternoon that night I came home around 6:00 and was unloading the boys when I turn around Jay was standing behind me he said hey didn't mean to scare you I heard your mama was out of town I said yes sir I knew he knew because there are friends on Facebook he told me to call him if I get scared or needed anything I got the boys inside and we got snuggled into bed they fell asleep in my bed when I realized that I had missed Sunday's episode of Game of Thrones it was a good one so I went to my mom's bed to watch I was lying there talking to my ex-husband about the boys send the show when Josh called I clicked over and he asked if my boyfriend was over I told him no this is about at 9:02 p.m. he told me a man is outside my window the dear cam snapped the first picture at 9:02 my boys are in my room sleeping Josh told me not to worry he was already coming up the driveway and to meet him outside on the other side of the house fear and dread literally drained through me I slowly walked in my room and calmly scooped up I'm boys I shut that door and sprinted through the house as fast as I could we sat in Josh's truck until the police arrived the dear cam snapped photos at 902 922 and 9:30 he stood outside my window that long waiting for me to come back the police walked back into the field and could see where he was parking but he was already gone behind the house is a massive produce field and it was a tractor road for tractor access I showed them the photos and ided Jay he was arrested at 2:00 a.m. that morning and when they went through his phone nine months of pictures pictures of me mowing pictures of me playing with my kids pictures of me in my bathroom sleeping bending over the hood of my car he was watching me the entire time I couldn't and didn't sleep for weeks he ended up getting out of jail the following weekend and came into my mom's post office she's a mail lady to tell her that he found my dead dog and he buried it for me and even after that only received five years probation and a restraining order he still lives across the street I stayed for maybe three months and moved on to Fort Walton Beach a lot of people who know me will recognize the story I often find myself telling it because of the absolute chaos of it all I'm a female living in New England to add another detail this took place in a decent neighborhood we weren't white trash or anything but here goes several years ago the day before my tenth birthday I was arriving home with my mother and little brother from a soccer game my brother had we were arriving in our house when my brother noticed a yard sale next door this house was run down apparently some police activity went on before I was born but that was over now right so a man walks up to us as we come over and he introduces himself we'll call him ray now ray was renting from the woman next door basically this woman had a house with four rooms one for her one for her disabled son and two for whoever paid money to live there for an amount of months ray seemed nice they played a bit of soccer on the sidewalk with my brother and spoke nicely with my mother he looked a bit trashy but I didn't care I just wanted to go inside my house and play Minecraft so I left not thinking much about the ordeal and that was October in late January a few months later I was barely awake when my dad picked me up out of my bed and carried me to the master bedroom where my mom and brother were the master bedroom is the farthest room away from the place where Ray was I didn't like being disturbed so I ran back to my bedroom my dad yelled saying there were police next door and I should go back in the other room I did as I was told it was so scared apparently Ray's ex had gone over to the house to pick up some of her things she brought a new boyfriend along ray started stabbing the boyfriend and police were called guns and all I thought it was a one-time occurrence I thought it'd be safe after that March my mom picked me up from school as usual my brother was staying after school for good our lessons she'd get him later I threw my backpack in the trunk and why there were so many suitcases in the back she cheerfully explained that we were staying at a hotel we drove around town and finally she said my dad will take me back home that we wouldn't be staying at a hotel I came home with my dad I noticed that there was police tape around our lawn my dad said that they had found drugs in race house that comment really didn't settle until later the full story was Ray was doing PCP on his front steps someone noticed and called the police police came half chased ray into the next town over half investigated the house an officer picked up a package with drugs and immediately begins to have a bad reaction hazmat was called and they find a drug lab thinking it's a meth lab the police advised my mom to evacuate which she does turns out it wasn't a meth lab so we could come back but he was manufacturing PCP my mom arrives home with my brother a few hours after I did and that's when reality sets in I had an anxiety attack couldn't heat and sat behind our couch using it as a makeshift bunker I didn't sleep that night a bit later ray newly released from jail does more illegal things but the evidence room was tampered with so he couldn't be convicted meanwhile my family has bought a new house a large dog security cameras and plenty of weapons my brother and I already attended therapy but now our sessions happen more frequently we were moving in two months meanwhile ray would watch us from his back porch just sitting there my dad confronted him once and ray started shouting death threats the day we move ray let his pitbull loose it was in the evening and he didn't know we had already left he just knew it would be around the time we would generally walk our dog finally one month later the big one hit Ray's strolled into a local food store high on PCP he picked up a small child and tried to run when the parents noticed ray dropped the child and tried to hide but the police found him he was fully released from jail a month later because the cells were too full no transfers nothing it was like he was acquitted although I'm not sure what the outcome of the whole ordeal was if he was capable of kidnapping and what would have been done to me what about my brother Ray I helped you overdose on your stupid PCP I gave you a chance and you gave me and my brother childhood trauma so this happened about three years ago I was 22 at the time and recently dumped so my best friend and I went to our favorite bar almost every night he was an Irish pub in downtown it was really homey and chill and we made good friends with the bartender's I went to mention that I'm a female and my best friend is bisexual male there is absolutely no romantic interest between us my friend and I were two or three drinks in so we were feeling pretty good and then this guy who looks to be in his 30s or 40s walks in and he has a very strong Irish accent my friend and I are talking and I mentioned something about the new shirt I was wearing and then here coming from the other end of the bar yes it is an absolutely stunning blouse on you he looks to the bartender and says isn't she absolutely gorgeous with that blouse tell her tell her she's stunning the bartender gives me a weird look and ignores him he deals with creepy guys on the regular about 10 minutes past and the creepy Irish guy comes over and sits down next to me usually I avoid talking to creepers at all costs and leave but we were the only ones in the bar my friend and I were just having so much fun laughing and giggling and I knew nothing bad was going to happen inside the bar so my friend and I made conversation with this guy we were all laughing and I forgot we were talking about but he then goes yeah I'm actually in the process of buying this bar we thought it was so weird cuz we knew the bartenders and this was a family-run bar I didn't think the owners were even thinking about selling it to some random I didn't question it though and we kept talking about his ideas for the bar and how he was going to expand it he then gets up and says oh wait for me for about 20 minutes I'm gonna go get my cousin from the hotel across the street after he left we forgot he was even coming back and we were just drinking and laughing like normal when the guy does come back he comes back with a super attractive woman my friend had not been laid in quite some time so once he saw her he was fixated on her even though she was older in her forties he was really into the older girls I told him he could get it then he would be a god so anyways I went outside for a cigarette out leaving my friend with the super hot lady I was incredibly drunk at this point not to the point where I couldn't walk but tell my safety precautions were out the door the guy sits next to me and he asked if he could give me a palm reading he grabs my hand and starts kissing it okay weird he says he comes from a long line of gypsies so he's closing his eyes rubbing my hand and kissing it and starts telling me some nonsensical fortune it was vague and it had absolutely nothing to do with me anyway we kept talking and he said that his cousins are looking for a fun night and thinks that we could show them around town etc I told him that my friend and I were pretty out of it and we were thinking about going home soon he then says oh it looks like your friend isn't going anywhere I look in the window and I saw his hot cousin rubbing her foot all up and down my friends leg my friend who isn't entirely ugly but doesn't usually ever get a chance with a woman like her I could tell he was red in the face and was acting bashful I started to think wow he is going to get it after all but then I got a feeling that didn't sit well with me even in my drunk state I went back inside and sat next to my friend and asked how everything was this is where my memory starts to get fuzzy so there are circumstances that Norm leading up to how it got a little crazy Holley remembers this guy starting to speak louder and more aggressively towards everyone once I mentioned that maybe we should go home the guy started giving my friend and I more shots and he was demanding the bartender give it to him for free cuz he was going to be the new owner of the bar bartender says he didn't hear about this so no free drinks for him this made the guy so angry he started throwing stuff over the counter I then screamed that I didn't need to drink anymore I was already too out of it a guy gets in my face telling me I'm going to drink what he gives me literally shoved it in my face and I actually did drink it guy demands more drinks bartender says no and the guy says fine here's $20 and throw a $20 bill at him then all of a sudden something clicks and my friends drunk horny brain and he just realizes that we could be in danger while the hot chick the Irish guy and the bartender all distracted and screaming my friend grabs my arm and we bolt out of the bar we ran all the way to my apartment locked the door we were like wait what literally just happened we were scared to go back to the barn Casey actually did own it two weeks later we'd decided to check it out we see the owner and ask him if he's selling the bar to the crazy Irish guy he then goes oh wait you were here for that yeah that guy was a con artist he stayed at the hotel across the street and was demanding a free room cuz he found drugs in the room and his kids could have gotten the drugs this guy didn't even have kids with him we never heard of the strange man and his cousin never again I have a few theories as to why they were trying to manipulate my friend and I into coming with him my first guess was robbery but I thought of everything to murder also I looked up Irish gypsies and there is a whole thing about them traveling and stealing stuff if anyone has a story like this or knows about what kind of stuff goes on with this group of people let me know because this event has bothered me for quite some time as someone who has grown up on an infamous haunted plantation I have never actually been scared of ghosts curious and intrigued yes but never scared in fact I have gone through a lot of trouble just to go to a haunted house or location I live in Virginia so there are a lot of places to check out there has only been one incident that has scared me so bad I'll never go stunt again and it wasn't even anything paranormal when this particular incident happened I was about 19 years old my boyfriend at the time and I were very explorative and we made it into a thing to go out at around midnight and go ghost hunting at random places he lived in Williamsburg Virginia so there were lots of places to go we would go around the Newport area as well some famous places that we visited often were old house woods Crawford Road Roswell house etc one night we decided we were bored and wanted to get our group of friends together to do some ghost hunting we got three of our friends on board and got ready to head out for the night usually we would smoke on the ride and when we were nice and toasted we would go to our destination on this night we decided to check out Roswell and then on our way back home we were going to take a detour through Crawford Road the night started out really fun we basically couldn't stop laughing the entire night one of my friends on the other hand couldn't shake this bad feeling he was having he insisted that we go home or go get some food at a fast food place he was also insisting that we skip Crawford Road because it was too out of the way from their apartment complex me and my boyfriend were very insistent that we checked out Crawford Road and since my boyfriend was driving my friend didn't get a say in the matter we jump back in the car got some McDonald's and headed to Crawford Crawford bridges just this little bridge on a very desolated creepy Road if I remember correctly the road was about ten miles long the bridge was where they would go to hang slaves so that area had a common report of ghosts when we got on Crawford Road we decided that when we got to the bridge we would get out to get a better look and take pictures need I remind you that this is about 1:30 a.m. my boyfriend and I were not scared but I guess the idea of that scared the crap out of my friend who was already freaking out previously at the time I thought my friend being scared all of a sudden was extremely strange because he usually loved doing this stuff he kept on just saying he had a bad feeling he had a bad feeling and he always trust his gut we should have listened but we were stubborn and we were almost to the bridge right as we came around the corner to see the bridge we saw a car he just parked on the side of the road as we got a little closer to the car the car came on and so did the lights we assumed that it was some teenagers checking out the landmark like we were but as we were passing them I saw the outline of two older men and I did see that they were both bald it sent chills down my spine so I told my boyfriend to keep driving and he agreed that we shouldn't stop or get out we passed slowly but when we were about to turn the corner for the bridge to be out of view I saw that car slowly turned around turn on his high beams and start following us at first we were a little freaked out but you know coincidences happened about two miles down the road this car was right on our tail we decided to go faster than normal to lose him the speed limit on this road was between 30 to 40 miles per hour we were going 65 to try to shake this car the whole time the car was so close to ours it was almost touching at this point we are all officially freaked out my friend who was originally freaked out was now in tears we officially were being chased down by these guys I felt a lot of relief when I saw that there was a turn on to a highway up ahead there were almost no cars on the road so we didn't even stop at the stop sign we ran right through and so did the car behind us we saw a 7-eleven up ahead and we thought that if we turned into it they would just keep going and leave us alone but no they followed us right into the 7-eleven parking lot we would be the only ones in the parking lot together and at that time I don't think any of us wanted to come face-to-face with the mysterious bald man my boyfriend unexpectedly punched it out of the parking lot followed by the mysterious car at this point we honestly thought we were all going to die we had no idea what the intentions were of these people but we knew that it obviously wasn't good and we have been specifically targeted once we got on the road we were flying I mean we had a hundred miles per hour easy we were all screaming and I managed to call the police but I was in hysterics going a hundred miles per hour in an area that I wasn't as familiar with with a car chasing us at some point the car got from behind us and got into the other lane this was a two-lane highway and there was no passing allowed on this road I looked over but I saw a flash of something metallic come up to their window possibly a gun and then all of a sudden my boyfriend slams on his brakes and the other car keeps going a hundred miles per hours we quickly try to turn around when I look back I see them stopping and also trying to turn around by the time they turned around we were already flying in the other direction somehow I'm not sure how but we lost them we tried to find the most populated area we could and so we found a random apartment complex we stopped the car and we all started crying my friend who told us we shouldn't go was yelling at us he was going on about how we needed to be more careful and start trusting our instincts let me tell you I have never not trusted his gut feeling again things could have gone a lot worse that night tend I'm very thankful it didn't later that month I had learned that the area was known for gang activity unfortunately I learned the hard way that anything could happen at any time it was very stupid and stubborn back then all those times we went ghost hunting not once did I think that there could be a murderer there waiting for a group of kids stupid enough like us to come by I was and still am an extremely shy person I'm the person with the headphones in hoodie up ignoring most people that girl with the stutter and shy mumbling apologies I don't speak out or draw attention to myself but that tends to attract the strangest people and the scariest guys I had a huge crush on one of the really hot cool guys in school sweet talker and a nerd I hung out a lot with him and he introduced me to his group of friends that's when I met him tall perv he was the strangest guy in the group I mean they were all pretty weird but he stood out he was very tall had a flash drive around his neck 24/7 and he was very touchy-feely with his hands nickname tall perv I just met tall perv and he was already acting strange around me the bell rang for us to go ahead back to class after lunch but tall perv had other ideas he decided to pick me up by my breast and had me standing up I don't speak a lot but I shrieked he dropped me and said that it's okay because I'm cute don't worry I didn't mean anything but it could if you wanted it to I ran back inside terrified and confused my crush pushed him away and was yelling at him neither one of them came after me I still hung out with the crush again but he was still hanging out with tall perv than his short friend on another day so I went up and tried to talk with my crush I was overhearing tall perv talk about terrible things in public he bragged about his flash drive and how it was full of inappropriate images and videos he also wore a flash drive crush looked annoyed but jumped at the chance of being with me many months later I was heading to a class that was in a different building when suddenly I felt a hand on my bottom it was tall perv laughing like it was a game I had a textbook in my hand and started hitting him with it as hard as I could yelling and screaming at him his face fell and he took off I thought I finally got rid of him I did and then he graduated he never touched me again but it doesn't end sadly he found me on Facebook years later at this time I forgot his name and face he didn't have a pic of him in his profile so I added them like ah someone from high school cool after I broke up with my boyfriend not crush but someone else guess who popped up on my phone tall perv same day he began texting me every day saying how he missed me and wanted to hang out I got onto Facebook and saw that 90% of my terrible memes he had liked and commented I posted a ton of memes daily and he liked almost all of them all my notifications were from him messages and likes I looked at the profile and I recognized him it was tall perv he was begging to hang out and one day out of the blue he started sending me nude pics I was shocked and kind of scared so I decided to block him on Facebook in the end nope I get a text message from my cell phone very very few people from high school had my cell phone number hey it's me tall perv you want to hang out come on I miss you well you can come bake and cook at my house I know you like sweets we can make a cake I know you live in a certain part of town it's not that far he was correct but how did he know where I lived please let's hang out I can buy you lunch I ignored his messages until he started calling me he was crying and saying how lonely he was he wanted me to go to his house and comfort him he spammed his address at me I finally blocked him on my phone one year later I get another message from him on a different number block that one too he was a perv and definitely still is but he went to a whole other level with the stalking and begging remember this one on three years a close friend of mine recently warned everyone on his Facebook page about tall perv because he picked up a scared female friend from tall pervs house he'd apparently lured a girl to his house and attempted to assault her she fled before he could grab her she has not filed any charges that I know of and if I ever see that guy again it better be a mug shot hey friends thanks for listening be sure to subscribe and click that notification bell to be alerted of all future narrations if you got a story be sure to
