“Something is very wrong here.”
I was into Jesus and wanted to do good deeds.
One day I saw two women who looked rough hitchhiking on the side of I-295 in Jacksonville, FL.
Based on their appearance, I thought they were leaving an abusive situation or something.
I pulled over to pick them up.
I got bad vibes and drove off right as they were reaching for my door.
I felt bad later and beat myself up for it.
What if they really needed help?
A few days later, I saw sketches of them on the news.
It was Aileen Wuornos (the serial killer from the movie Monster) and her girlfriend.
The guy who picked them up after I drove off was murdered and dumped in a swamp.
A minute after doing so a car pulls up next to me on the empty road.
I ran home with my phone ready should they change their mind and come back.
The description matched the car and the guys in it that followed me that night.
I shudder to think what may have happened if I hadnt pretended to be on the phone that night.
Aunt married her second husband and he just gave me the creeps.
She came into the marriage with a daughter who was about 8 at the time.
Something felt really wrong.
Aunt divorced him but hes still around because they had additional kids together.
I see him comment on FB posts of the cousin he molested.
Id love for him to die a slow and painful death, the sooner the better.
The fence was a small chain link fence, so he definitely saw me and stopped.
And I could see him clearly, like 20 years later its still so vivid.
No one had been home all day, so there were no lights on inside or out.
I calmly stop after taking a couple steps and say Nope!
He follows those and sees they are around the entire house.
There was in fact, someone waiting for me to fire up the door that night.
My siblings and I were swimming at a neighbors house with their kid, but the adults were inside.
Randomly a thought came into my head of Wheres my sister at?.
She made a complete recovery and is one of the best parts of my life.
I got an awful feeling in the pit of my stomach and felt nauseated.
I told my father I didnt want him to and he asked why as he thought I liked her.
He already had the ring and proposed straight away.
I got really excited about the engagement, the wedding, moving house, and my impending little sister.
After the wedding she changed.
After my half-sister was born she went batshit.
I had a co worker who used to go to parties In high school.
Several of the parties in her senior year were at some guys farm.
She went to one and bailed right away saying it felt weird.
The guy who owned the farm wasRobert Pickton.
Im a member of a local Facebook group to help moms find babysitters.
He was just arrested for molesting 2 children and possession of child porn.
Bail is set at 2 million.
Its estimated that he sat for over 500 children in our area.
Who knows how many he abused.
When we first moved in I kept waking up feeling uneasy when I shouldve been exhausted.
Id feel nervous and get up check the doors, check closets ect.
My husband said I was being paranoid because I was alone and I thought so too.
But then that same week my husband was away I offered to watch my friends dog.
So I get home from work around 2am and get to sleep around 3-4am.
I wake up around 8-9am to the dog barking and growling like a made man.
Now, because the space was similar to a studio we had no doors on anything besides the bathroom.
He was caught off guard by the dog and I yelled what the hell are you doing?!
I thought the house was on fire or something, and I know the front door was locked.
I always locked it.
He quickly apologized and walked out.
Gregs car wasnt in the driveway but his wife was home.
She was nonchalant about it and replied its his house he can do what he want.
He like to check on things from time to time
I flipped out on her.
We noped the fuck out of there as soon as we could.
Met her stepdad, and instantly my stomach was unsettled.
He was physically aggressive with me one day and I never went back.
This happened a couple of years ago at the church I attend.
One day this young lady in her mid-20s started attending our services.
She was very polite and friendly and seemed eager to be a part of our congregation.
After several weeks she started bringing her brother, who Ill call Brody, along with her.
He was slightly younger than her and seemed nice enough.
The more time I spent around him, however, I began to realize how different he was.
I didnt become alarmed until I noticed how fixated Brody was becoming on our pastor and his wife.
I was instantly creeped out.
Fast forward to several weeks later.
He tells me hes sent his family away to a safe place for a few days.
Apparently Brody had called the pastors wife and had threatened to rape and murder her.
Luckily he couldnt find a car to borrow, or he very likely would have carried out his threats.
It was all such a surreal experience.
A couple of minutes later I notice this couple walk by slowly, staring at us.
My spidey-senses go mental.
I do not like these people for some reason.
They arent talking, just looking at each other.
And that is when I notice her reaching into her pockets.
Turns out she stabbed a couple walking through the park, trying to rob them.
I woke up one morning and saw that I was late for school.
Now as Im walking along there was a man who sitting on a chair near the sidewalk.
He stopped me and asked if I was late for school and he essentially started a conversation with me.
I rejected the offer and he kept trying to persuade me to enter his house.
I gave him a BS reason and said I needed to get going.
I feel like I dodged a bullet that day.
I drove myself to the ER and on the way was getting chest pains.
I went in, told them and they took me to the back.
After some tests there were a lit of people around me injecting me with a lot of different stuff.
The doctors said if I had left it any longer I would have been dead.
I had a student in an adult course I was teaching.
She was bright, responsible, and quiet in class.
I had never once spoken to her, and she was obviously not seeing reality.
I tried multiple times to bring her back to the real world and shut her down.
The semester ended, I reported her, but nothing happened and I never heard from her again.
Guess who it was…
The younger kids were playing in the backyard, doing whatever the hell kids do.
While playing, I could SWEAR I heard a crying/wailing/screaming sound, but it was very quiet and distant.
Family friend from my uncles church was on vacation with us when I was around 11 or 12.
As were walking Im getting this weird vibe from the guy.
He keeps insisting on taking pictures of me, I keep getting more creeped out.
Im pretty sure I was almost raped that day.
One day, about two weeks ago, I woke up and didnt feel pregnant anymore.
Just found out today that the baby has no heart beat.
Now he had a bunch of friends hed do it with and had quite a bit of connections.
Now he was introduced to a guy, lets call him Ivan for now.
They quickly became friends but my mother never liked him.
She always had a bad feeling about Ivan.
She tried telling this to my dad but he would just shrug it off.
One day my dad decided to on an expedition.
My mother begged him not to go because she felt a sense of dread over him going.
A day later my father is missing.
My mother being skeptical of him organised a second search group with his previous old friends and family.
Hours later a body has been discovered by the second search group.
Hastily buried beneath a thin layer of leafs and wet dirt lied the body of my father.
The face was almost unrecognisable.
Good thing she did that because the next night she heard keys clinging and scratching against the lock.
She called the police but by the time they got there he was gone.
He also purposefully lead the investigation as far as possible from the real place the body was hidden.
Good thing that the bastard is rotting behind bars now.
A few years ago I was out drinking for a friends Bachelorette party.
I knew I was too drunk to drive, so I called my then-boyfriend for a ride.
On the way home, we were side swiped by a drunk driver in a suburban.
The only reason she stopped was because a cop pulled her over.
She was so drunk she didnt even notice that she ran us over.
My head hit the pavement pretty hard, but his didnt.
If I hadnt been wearing the helmet things would have gone much differently that night.
When I was 13, my mom started dating a guy named…Ted.
Ted was a therapist who lost custody of his own daughter a few years earlier for some unknown reason.
Ted also had issues with the law for illegal gun possession.
I did not like Ted.
But my mom did.
She liked him so much, she let him behave as if he were my father.
While teaching me how to float on my back one afternoon, Ted touched my ass.
It felt wrong, but I didnt have the words at the time to explain why.
What also felt wrong was how often Ted talked about sex.
Like I remember him asking about my periods a lot.
Then one day, Ted disappeared.
My mom didnt say why, just that it was over.
Fast forward about 10 years.
Bored in my apartment, I suddenly feel like googling Ted, and Hole.
Turns out Ted wasnt a therapist at all.
He was a pervert who created his own private practice so he could prey on vulnerable women.
Told my mom about it she had no idea.
Told a family friend about it, he said, I KNEW I didnt like that guy!
Then they both told me Ted had tried to get in touch with them recently!
Both declined to meet him, of course, but my protective instincts kicked in.
I said, if this fool has the balls to pop up again, you direct him to me.
I will confront him and call the cops on him myself if he dares to come near my family.
When my mother started dating her 2nd husband.
Fast forward to their wedding.
From the moment they were married, he turned in to a physically and emotionally abusive piece of shit.
I only realised a few years ago that there was something else up with him as well.
Sit on my bed and give a shot to talk to me with a creepy smile on his face.
Then hed get to about my knee, suddenly stand up and walk out.
As far as Im aware, he didnt do anything to me other than what I said above.
Never saw the inside of a cell.
I used to clean vacant houses for a living.
I was cleaning out the property just fine when my Spidey-Sense went off the charts.
On the corner I saw a weird looking guy that had a nasty feeling about him.
Told my boss that I wasnt going to go back to that property.
I dont really believe in premonitions or anything but thats something Ill never be able to explain.
It was probably the defining event of my life when including everything that followed.
I kept asking him if he was alright but he kept saying everything was fine.
I became very concerned at this point.
We came back in for one day on Friday and my friend wasnt there.
I learned that he was in the hospital because of a heart attack.
Because of this my friend says that I saved his life through the power of our friendship.
About 15 years ago i left work early, like really early, for no real reason.
A kid I didnt see was sitting on a curb surrounded by all the rest.
About 6 years ago, my sister and her family were visiting.
Her daughter 4 months old at the time was napping in the house while the adults were hanging outside.
I went into the house to grab something, and glanced over at my neice.
She was limp and strange looking, like spaced out.
By this time she was back to normal, so we shrugged it off.
I said something like Oh I forgot how babies look when they sleep.
Within 1-2 day, my niece started having 10 seizures a day.
What I had witnessed was a seizure.
She was diagnosed with a seizure disorder.
She has been seizure free for 4 years!
Now she is a healthy, beautiful and happy little lady!
One night during finals my junior year at university I received a text from my father at 1:30am.
My family is not affectionate.
My family doesnt say I love you.
My father does not text me.
For some reason I woke up 3 mins after receiving the text while my phone was on silent.
I called to see if he was okay.
I immediately got in the my car and tore off to my dads place.
He immediately broke down in tears and I held him for what seemed like an hour.
I saved my fathers life that night and have always checked in on him since.
Hes in a much better place now.
I think at some point he stopped waiting for it to be the weekend.
He comes walking in and immediately I know something is very wrong.
Everyone else nervous laughs but I can tell that this is no joke.
The guy he tried to attack was looking over his shoulder for weeks.
This was over a year ago and nobody has seen or heard of him since.
Years ago I was staying the night at someone elses house, maybe an hour from where I lived.
Turns out I should have.
My girlfriend decided to chill at home for it, as she had some work she needed to do.
I called my girlfriend to chat and talk about a few things.
I dont know why, but I got a really sinking feeling when I started to talk to her.
Anyway, the replacement flatmate comes over that night to sign some paperwork for the tenancy agreement.
My other flatmates have somewhat busy schedules, so we had to make an effort to all be there.
While this is happening my girlfriends friends shows up and she shows him to his temporary room.
My flatmate says Really?
and I explain how I was at the beach.
The look my flatmate gave wasnt right, I got that sinking not-right feeling again almost instantly.
I quickly change subjects and finish up the paperwork.
She said Were you serious about about what you said?.
Again, that feeling just comes right back, and I respond sheepishly Yeah.
I confronted my girlfriend about it.
She denied it, the I mentioned what my flatmate said and she broke down.
I kick the guy out, but he had found another place, so just as well.
I break up with my girlfriend after a week or arguing and fighting trying to work something out.
About a month or so later, they get engaged.
It turns out she had been cheating on me with him for about 6 months.
To anyone who spent time out of their day to read this, thank you and stay safe.
Had a man come into the fast food restaurant where I used to work several years ago.
He orders a 3-piece meal, and my friend rings him up while I pack his food.
My friend is an idiot though, and starts prattling about lotions and what not.
I dont do anything though- what am I going to call him out on- being too girly?
We got ourselves a flimflammer.
Im still a little green myself and not sure what to do.
I dont have proof of anything.
By that time I had gone to my manager and tried to make him get off the phone.
It took him a second to understand what I was saying.
Our manager counted the drawer.
He ended up getting just over $200 out of my idiot friend.
A few years ago, I was just getting into our local arts community.
He does intricate stained glass work, and he has breathtaking glass installations in various sections of the building.
The space is really dreamy.
He invited his friend to give me a tour of the place.
The guy made a comment to me about the view from the windows being amazing.
He waved me over and was like come on, come check it out.
He tried to put his hand on my arm to guide me into the room with him.
I said no again and took my hand back.
Him having his arms draped around them just disgusts me on so many levels.
Hes an absolute creep.
Ive told everyone Ive met that hes a predator and to avoid him.
I (F) was just 20, in London on my own, on my OE.
I met a guy (I cant remember how) and we went to a pub for a drink.
Im certain he had a bad plan for me and I learnt a really valuable lesson that day.
Edit: OE = overseas experience.
Sorry, Im Australian and the abbreviation is so common here I forgot to be clear.
Edit 2: A lot of Australians are commenting about not being familiar with the OE term.
I didnt realise it wasnt so well known here!
Friend of mine was renting a room from someone.
I was 18, he was 24 but we both looked really young at the time.
I cant even describe the look, it made me feel so skeeved out.
Found a large mirror, dirty matress, a video camera and a bunch of tapes.
We called cps, the police and moved all his stuff out that night.
Edit: this blew up very fast.
I never knew what happened in the end because the phone calls were anonymous tips.
I found the trailer park this occurred at and searched for convicted sex offenders in the area.
His sex offender conviction was for molesting of a minor and procession of child pornography.
This whole story happened in 2005.
Spent 2 years in jail.
His current where abouts are unknown and his Megans law page says noncompliance and absconded.
I lived in the Middle East for about 9 years.
Thats when I thought to myself Something is very wrong here.
I still have the shit stains in my pants even though this happened 10 years ago.
When I first started driving I got the old family car.
After a couple of months, I noticed it had this weird shake whenever I was in Park.
Turns out three out of the four engine mounts had completely eroded away.
Suck on that mom.
I went to the doctor, did some tests, they shrugged me off because they were negative.
Another doctor, same thing.
Finally went to the ER one night because the pain was so bad.
They found a cyst on my ovary that was the size of a housecat.
I had emergency surgery to get it and my right ovary removed and they said everything would get better.
My issues were still there a month post-op and I was having a really hard recovery.
I knew something else was going on.
I insisted something was still wrong.
Finally after begging he sent me to a GI specialist and guess what??
I was diagnosed with severe ulcerative colitis AND a rare liver disease.
But no one took it seriously for 7 months.
Was at a park in a rough area, shooting hoops.
See some transients (homeless) sitting on a nearby bench, talking, looking at me.
One walks over, past me, to a bench that is facing behind me.
So, like a triangle, was surrounded.
I had this regarding a girl the year below me at school.
A really lovely girl, very clever and friendly to everyone.
She did get in to Cambridge to study Philosophy.
She had just started her lectures after Freshers Week when she contracted bacterial meningitis.
I was glad to hear that because she didnt really get along well with her family.
The more the day went along, the more it all didnt sound right.
I asked if they were from him.
That relationship ended right then and there.
I was at the laundry mat with my bf one day.
He had this strange look on his face and immediately my intuition was screaming at me.
Something in my body froze up and everything felt heavy.
We went to the market down the street to kill time before our clothes were finished drying.
As we pulled up to the laundromat there were four police cars out front.
When we walked in there was a mother and daughter hysterically talking to the police.
That skeevy man had molested a 14 year old girl and hit the mom.
From where i was, i couldnt make out a lot of details.
I park and get out of my car.
I notice no one is around me.
They were walking towards the small parking lot at the back of the theater.
They should have been somewhere in my vicinity, but they werent.
I cant shake the feeling something is wrong.
So i start walking towards the alley.
I look down and dont see anything.
I start walking down the alley.
Everything goes red and i charge after the guy, pull him off.
He pushes me back and takes off running.
The Police come and take a report.
The EMT checks out the girl.
Worked in social work right out of college.
I was young and didnt have the life experience to be making the choices I was asked to make.
Had a client who was living with foster parents of 35+ yrs.
They were everyones favorite foster parents in the organization.
It made me, and still does, feel sick to my stomach thinking about it.
I might have caught warning signs earlier than that and not added to this childs long list of traumas.
This happened not to me, but to my mum and her brother.
We live in a block of flats and that day mum was visiting a friend of hers.
My grandfather (her dad) was at our flat that day, too.
Some time later my dad came home along with my uncle.
Then they heard a strange noise coming from the pantry.
Well, when they opened the door, they found his body.
My grandfather had hung himself in the pantry only minutes ago.
My dad had a friend that just had such a bad vibe to him.
Like even if he tried to be nice it always came off as creepy.
Like death was right around the corner.
I decline the offer and he says alright.
I forget about it u til years later I revisit the neighborhood and dont see him around.
My neighbors all get wierd about it.
He was a child molestor.
