He was, in fact, the killer, Derrick Todd Lee."
to the folks over atr/AskReddit.
And, ZERO surprise here, the stories are the things nightmares are made of.
Check it out:
Warning: Graphic content ahead including mentions of rape.
They had money, and the house was a massive, pretty cool place.
They even had a full-time maid who had her own ‘flat’ at the back.
It was all a mess missing TVs, furniture, broken stuff… you get the picture.
They went to check on the maid and her flat was empty, all her belongings were gone.
And that’s what everyone believed for a week…"

“My aunt fell asleep on her couch one night and my uncle was asleep upstairs.
She woke up around 12 a.m. to a random man staring at her while she slept.
He said, ‘The guy upstairs was sound asleep.’
She told him to leave and somehow by the will of god HE LEFT.
He slid out through the back door… We live in a relatively safe area!
Craziest shit I have ever heard.”
“My high school girlfriend called late one night after I was home and in bed.
She said that something had happened and asked if I could come over.
She was clearly shaken and not full of details.
So I told my parents and drove over to her house.
At the top of her subdivision, I was met by a cop with lights on.
He asked where I was going and I told him about the call from my girlfriend.
They watch me pull up and get out of my car.
My girlfriend ran out of her house and met me in the street.
She explained that someone had broken into her neighbors house and started beating her with something heavy.”
I have regulars, of course.
“I was around 10 years old.
I assumed my mum booked it for me as she can’t drive.
I cleared up my stuff and got my bag.
I was just about to leave when I remembered my jacket in my classroom.
I rush to get up and head out for the taxi.
The office woman told me I was too late and the taxi had gone without me.
I just returned to class but panicked my mum would be angry at me.
School finishes and my mum is waiting for me at the gates.
I burst into tears, apologizing for missing the taxi and thinking I was in big trouble.
She never ordered a taxi and had no clue what I was talking about.
She ended up not making the doctor’s appointment.
No one ever found out who ordered the taxi, or who the driver was.”
I’d go over and have snacks, and she had a Mr.
Potato Head I played with that was her (now adult) son’s toy.
He came home one day, in his twenties, from the Army I think.
I don’t remember much about him, but he asked about taking my older brothers camping.
My mom said no, she had a weird feeling about him.
He said he got them at the creek.
I asked her why, and she told me about her personal experience.
This happened almost a year after she passed her test.
She had a knife to her neck and was told to drive.
They gave her directions to an alleyway.
They dragged her out of the car and raped her.
After they were done, they left her in the alleyway and stole her car and purse.
It took her a while to get help.
But the guys were not caught.
“World War II, the Pacific theater.
My great uncle on my mother’s side fought at Okinawa.
He was the only member of his platoon to make it off the island alive.”
“My grandfather was a British FEPOW in Japan in WWII.
Luckily he survived and came home in 1945.”
“My uncle was in a bar one night and started talking to this random guy.
He described him as ‘a really nice guy.’
He met him a few other times in the same bar.
They drank and talked about random stuff.
Soon after, my uncle stopped seeing the guy at the bar.
IDK how long after that, but my uncle got notified sometime later that he had jury duty.
He showed up and found out what it was for.
A serial killer and the killer was his friend from the bar.Derrick Todd Lee.
My uncle was promptly dismissed from jury duty for obvious reasons.”
“My college girlfriend called me one night.
So, my roommate and I drove over and filed in line behind her and the truck.
She lived on the LSU campus so I assumed it was a student prank or something.
She parked at her aunt’s house, and the truck stopped one house short of her aunt’s.
We pulled in behind her.
I explain I’m going to diffuse the situation.
“In the 1990s, a nurse in New Jersey killed hundreds of hospital patients.
Sometimes, he would sneak into patient’s rooms at night and inject them with fatal medication doses.
He was accused several times.
Some patients pointed him out before they died.
Some staff thought he was creepy and dangerous, and refused to work with him.
He kept getting fired from hospitals.
So they just fired him, and didn’t call the police.”
“My grandfather’s village was razed by the Nazis.
He had nine siblings.
Most young men fled before they arrived.
The men that were in the village were lined up against a wall and shot.
“So when I was around 18, I went to town to drink with my friends.
We went all in and by 2 a.m.
I was completely wasted.
Couldn’t see, walk or think straight.
One of my mates remained sober to drive us back home.
We went to the parking lot and I could hear a voice whimpering in the dark.
I turned around and saw two guys carrying a girl to a car.
I got closer and now I could hear her voice.
Adrenaline kicked in and I became sober instantly.
I screamed at them and immediately called the police.
They got in the car and drove off.
The whole scene was so terrifying.
This was in Germany.”
This is one of the reasons I hate football, especially where I am (England).
Riot vans, hundreds of police, etc., are always around every train station and football stadium.
Sad little men willing to take a life over a bag of air getting kicked around.
“Up to this day, I’m still looking for a logical explanation to this.
This happened in 2003.
I didn’t feel like it so I drove them and waited in the car.
“The legend of Bearman.
So people think of that oneSouth Parkepisode with ‘ManBearPig.’
No, its not even close to that.
So, there was this camp I used to go to during the summer.
There were probably around 500 kids there for a week straight.
The older person was around 1718 watching 1316 year olds in the cabins.
So now that you know the setting, lets get into the legend…”

“I lived in a basement suite with my younger brother in a quiet neighborhood.
One day, I got word while I was out that my place had been robbed.
This means they watched us for a few days and monitored our patterns.
“My mom is from El Salvador, and she lived there during the height of the civil war.
He had twin daughters with extremely long hair.
