- 0:02Speaker 1: My grandfather left me his old farmhouse before his death.
- 0:05Speaker 1: I always wanted a place like this, so as soon
- 0:08Speaker 1: as I finished college, I came here to write my book.
- 0:11Speaker 1: But the moment I stepped into my bedroom and I
- 0:13Speaker 1: saw a huge, ugly bat hanging from my bedroom ceiling.
- 0:17Speaker 1: I called out to the housekeeper, Carmel, Oh what is it, sir,
- 0:22Speaker 1: Get that filthy thing out of my room. I hate bats.
- 0:26Speaker 2: Oh that one. They all live in the cemetery behind
- 0:29Speaker 2: the lake, must have gotten in from the window.
- 0:32Speaker 1: Telling Carmel to prepare my dinner, I went to freshen up.
- 0:36Speaker 1: When I came back, I found that the bat was gone. Finally,
- 0:39Speaker 1: what a relief. After gobbling two chicken legs and a
- 0:43Speaker 1: bowl filled with noodles, I set out for an evening stroll.
- 0:47Speaker 1: I took the path at the back of my house.
- 0:49Speaker 1: After walking for seven minutes straight, I found the old
- 0:53Speaker 1: cemetery Carmel mentioned In the afternoon. A pebbled paved path
- 0:58Speaker 1: leads into the cemetery. Gravestones were quite old and had
- 1:02Speaker 1: moss and wild saplings growing over them. I was reading
- 1:05Speaker 1: the epitaphs on the grave when I heard footsteps behind me.
- 1:10Speaker 3: You don't like beads, do.
- 1:11Speaker 1: You How do you know.
- 1:15Speaker 3: I was nearby when you were telling your housekeeper.
- 1:18Speaker 1: To get rid of it. Oh, I see. The man
- 1:22Speaker 1: took off his big black hat and bowed his head
- 1:25Speaker 1: like an English lord.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Welcome to Blists Hill. I'm your neighbor, Vincent's malfoy.
- 1:33Speaker 1: I'm Joe. I just moved here, splendid, finally a neighbor.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Seeing that it was getting dark, I slowly started walking
- 1:43Speaker 1: towards the house. The man too followed me. I was
- 1:47Speaker 1: feeling a bit uncomfortable with his presence. The way he
- 1:50Speaker 1: talked without blinking made me cringe.
- 1:53Speaker 3: I do enjoy wandering around the church cemetery in the evening.
- 2:00Speaker 1: My head and tried to turn on my flashlight to
- 2:02Speaker 1: get a clear view of the road. It blinked twice
- 2:05Speaker 1: and then stopped working.
- 2:07Speaker 3: Damn it, don't worry, I can see very well in
- 2:11Speaker 3: the dark. Careful, there's a whole head.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Vincent grabbed my hand and pulled me to his left.
- 2:19Speaker 1: His touch was icy cold. I felt a shiver down
- 2:22Speaker 1: my spine. Then suddenly he asked, what do you know
- 2:27Speaker 1: about vampires? I wasn't ready for such an odd question,
- 2:31Speaker 1: so it took some time to reply. Blood sucking bats
- 2:35Speaker 1: are called vampire bats. I don't know if this bat
- 2:39Speaker 1: exists in our country, though, but I have read about
- 2:42Speaker 1: vampire bats and foreign books. Also, in ghost stories, it's
- 2:47Speaker 1: said that when dead bodies come out of their graves
- 2:50Speaker 1: to suck the blood of sleeping humans, they too are
- 2:53Speaker 1: called vampires. Right. I felt annoyed by his question. For
- 3:01Speaker 1: a few minutes, none of us talked and just kept
- 3:03Speaker 1: walking in the dark road surrounded by woods. When I
- 3:06Speaker 1: almost reached close to my house, the man suddenly said.
- 3:10Speaker 3: It was a pleasure meeting you.
- 3:13Speaker 1: How long you're going to be here, probably a month
- 3:17Speaker 1: or maybe more.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Good? Good, very good.
- 3:24Speaker 1: He then lifted his long, bony finger and pointed out
- 3:28Speaker 1: towards the cemetery, saying.
- 3:30Speaker 3: You will see me if you come that way after sunset.
- 3:34Speaker 3: My paternal grandfather's grave is also there. Tomorrow I will show.
- 3:39Speaker 1: You, flashing his yellow teeth once again, he disappeared into
- 3:44Speaker 1: the dark woods. A coyote howled from the distance. Just
- 3:48Speaker 1: then that night, I had a weird dream. It was
- 3:51Speaker 1: about Vincent Malloy.
- 4:00Speaker 3: Ha ha.
- 4:03Speaker 1: I spend the entire afternoon working on my book. Around
- 4:06Speaker 1: five in the evening, I went out for some fresh air.
- 4:09Speaker 1: I had no wish to see Vincent, so I went
- 4:11Speaker 1: the opposite way from the cemetery, but within five minutes
- 4:15Speaker 1: he caught up to me.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Joe, wait, damn it.
- 4:20Speaker 1: I tried to walk away, but he was so quick
- 4:23Speaker 1: he stopped right in front of me, blocking my way.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Did you sleep well last night?
- 4:28Speaker 1: Why does he always ask the weirdest questions? And I
- 4:32Speaker 1: started walking saying yes, I did.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Good, good, very good. I can't sleep at night. I
- 4:41Speaker 3: sleep during the day and wander around all night. I
- 4:45Speaker 3: see the cemetery is my favorite place. I feel so
- 4:50Speaker 3: fascinated to think about all the dead bodies buried here
- 4:54Speaker 3: or sleeping for decades. But they don't enjoy being in
- 4:58Speaker 3: a box. I often them weeping at night. Oh they
- 5:02Speaker 3: want is to come out and be alive again.
- 5:07Speaker 1: I couldn't tolerate his useless rant anymore. Look, Voldemort or
- 5:12Speaker 1: whatever your name is, I have no time for your
- 5:14Speaker 1: maronic bull crap, So just leave me alone. Okay. I
- 5:19Speaker 1: went to my house and for one last time turned
- 5:22Speaker 1: back to see if he was following me. He didn't.
- 5:25Speaker 1: He just stood there with a cold, expressionless face, his
- 5:29Speaker 1: eyes glowing in the dark. Once I got home, I
- 5:32Speaker 1: laid down on my bed, thinking I'd had to tolerate
- 5:35Speaker 1: this jackass neighbor for months now. I must have dozed
- 5:39Speaker 1: off when a pair of wings flapped over my head.
- 5:42Speaker 1: Opening my eyes, I saw a huge bat hanging from
- 5:45Speaker 1: the ceilings, staring down at me. Its green, burning eyes
- 5:49Speaker 1: made my skin crawl. Without taking my eyes off the creature,
- 5:53Speaker 1: I reached for my hard bound notebook on the bedstand.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Within two to three seconds, the bat hump aiming for
- 6:00Speaker 1: my throat, flashing its sharp banks, and I hid it
- 6:04Speaker 1: with all my strength. It flew away from the window,
- 6:08Speaker 1: landing in the backyard. At the very next moment, I
- 6:11Speaker 1: heard the sounds of rustling footsteps fading away. When I
- 6:15Speaker 1: looked outside the window, I saw no one. The bat
- 6:19Speaker 1: was nowhere to be found. The next morning, I woke
- 6:22Speaker 1: up hearing chaos outside my house. Few local people were
- 6:26Speaker 1: carrying Vincent malloy on their shoulders. Vincent's forehead was covered
- 6:30Speaker 1: with clotted blood. When I asked what happened, one man
- 6:34Speaker 1: said he might have fallen from the tree and cracked
- 6:37Speaker 1: his head. What was he doing on a tree? This
- 6:40Speaker 1: man is one crazy worko. He loved climbing the tree
- 6:43Speaker 1: and hanging upside down, just like just like a bath.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Hey guys, my name is Robert, My girlfriend and I
- 7:05Speaker 2: live in a house in the woods, away from people.
- 7:09Speaker 2: It may be that moving away from the world may
- 7:11Speaker 2: be frowned upon by everyone, but if you had a
- 7:14Speaker 2: neighbor like Willie the Stalker, you would understand me. When
- 7:18Speaker 2: we moved in, we immediately met William, not because he
- 7:22Speaker 2: showed up, but because both my girlfriend and I saw
- 7:25Speaker 2: him spying on us from his house. The neighbors warned
- 7:29Speaker 2: us that this man was in the neighborhood recently, and
- 7:32Speaker 2: during that time he had terrorized the whole neighborhood. During
- 7:35Speaker 2: the day, he only spied on people through the window,
- 7:39Speaker 2: but at night and he said they saw him trying
- 7:42Speaker 2: to enter the neighbor's houses or approaching the children to
- 7:45Speaker 2: talk to them. I was sure that this was all
- 7:47Speaker 2: a lie, as my neighbors also mistreated me for no
- 7:50Speaker 2: reason in my previous neighborhood. To remove my doubts, I
- 7:54Speaker 2: went to say hello to William while my girlfriend was unpacking.
- 7:58Speaker 2: When I rang his doorbell, a strange man appeared. I
- 8:02Speaker 2: greeted him in a friendly manner, but my optimism faded
- 8:06Speaker 2: rather quickly. The man didn't return my greeting. He just
- 8:10Speaker 2: stared at me with a tetric look that stopped my heart.
- 8:13Speaker 2: He was full of pent up anger and looked like
- 8:15Speaker 2: he was going to open the door and attack me
- 8:17Speaker 2: at any moment.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Uh.
- 8:19Speaker 1: Hello, my name is Robin. That didn't end well.
- 8:24Speaker 2: After that, I decided to listen to the neighbors. Maybe
- 8:27Speaker 2: this was a man I should not approach, But in
- 8:30Speaker 2: the next few days I could not prevent him from
- 8:33Speaker 2: approaching us for security reasons. On the same day we
- 8:37Speaker 2: moved in, we installed the camera on the front door.
- 8:40Speaker 2: The previous owner's door was broken for some reason. We
- 8:44Speaker 2: finished with the move and settled in, but soon after
- 8:48Speaker 2: I realized that something was wrong. The camera was in
- 8:51Speaker 2: a different position. Someone had moved in. I went to
- 8:55Speaker 2: look at the recordings and, terrified, we saw how Willie
- 9:00Speaker 2: had been trying to break our cameras. I was furious,
- 9:03Speaker 2: and even though I let it go that day, I
- 9:06Speaker 2: watched the next few days as the same thing happened
- 9:09Speaker 2: over and over again, until one day he broke the
- 9:12Speaker 2: camera that had been the straw that broke the camp
- 9:15Speaker 2: quarters back. Furious, I went to knock on the neighbor's door,
- 9:19Speaker 2: and unlike the previous time, this one opened by itself
- 9:24Speaker 2: and there was no one behind it. With some curiosity,
- 9:28Speaker 2: I began to explore the dark house, but I saw
- 9:31Speaker 2: no one nearby. I was struck by the fact that
- 9:34Speaker 2: I saw many family pictures, but none of them was willing.
- 9:37Speaker 2: The lights could be turned on, but it would surely
- 9:40Speaker 2: alert the man. I didn't know what I expected to
- 9:44Speaker 2: find here. I knew this was trespassing, but I didn't care.
- 9:48Speaker 2: I heard noises coming from the basement, so I went
- 9:51Speaker 2: downstairs and began hiding. I slowly walked up the stairs
- 9:55Speaker 2: to see what the sounds were. When I saw what
- 9:57Speaker 2: was happening, I almost felt the floor in terror. On
- 10:01Speaker 2: the floor, chained together were at least five people. All
- 10:06Speaker 2: these people were naked, with their private parts covered by bandages.
- 10:10Speaker 2: All the people were connected to each other as if
- 10:13Speaker 2: they were a centipede. Their mouths were cooked to the
- 10:16Speaker 2: back of their bodies. This was sickening and horrible. It
- 10:19Speaker 2: was just like that movie have.
- 10:21Speaker 3: You seen The Humans Center Pete Robert.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Behind me, my neighbors stood with the sickly punt, shy smile,
- 10:30Speaker 2: proud of what he had done.
- 10:32Speaker 3: Isn't it beautiful? The movie inspired me to do this.
- 10:36Speaker 3: The guy from the second movie if it's a rookie,
- 10:38Speaker 3: but I am a doctor, liked the guy from their
- 10:41Speaker 3: first movie. I can do this, and it's fascinating.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Who are they? Oh?
- 10:48Speaker 3: Didn't you see some pictures on the way over? I'm
- 10:51Speaker 3: not really your neighbor. They are, and you know what,
- 10:55Speaker 3: you and your girlfriend fee'll be next.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Before the man could reac attack me, I began to
- 11:02Speaker 2: beat him brutally. Something had taken over me. I hit
- 11:06Speaker 2: him harder and harder until I wasn't even doing it
- 11:08Speaker 2: in self defense anymore. The people trapped in the centipede
- 11:12Speaker 2: seemed terrified of me. By the time I was done
- 11:15Speaker 2: with him, he was dead, still alert, I heard someone
- 11:19Speaker 2: start to come down the stairs. Wasn't really alone. I
- 11:23Speaker 2: stole his gun and stood waiting. The footsteps became louder
- 11:26Speaker 2: and louder, each one echoing throughout my body. I was
- 11:30Speaker 2: terrified but ready. As soon as I saw a silhouette,
- 11:34Speaker 2: I fired as fast as I could, and the dead
- 11:37Speaker 2: body fell down the stairs. It was my girlfriends.
- 11:41Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no.
- 11:43Speaker 1: What have I done?
- 11:44Speaker 2: Suddenly I felt someone crawling behind me. When I turned around,
- 11:49Speaker 2: it was William. The man was still trying to attack
- 11:52Speaker 2: me with a small knife. Still desperate, I unloaded all
- 11:59Speaker 2: of my anger on him. This was the second person
- 12:02Speaker 2: I had killed that day. I couldn't go to jail,
- 12:05Speaker 2: not again. If I wanted to get out of this,
- 12:09Speaker 2: I would have to get my hands even dirtier. Crying,
- 12:12Speaker 2: I put the gun to the family's head, and one
- 12:15Speaker 2: by one I began to execute them. I was aware
- 12:19Speaker 2: that maybe they could be saved, but at that moment
- 12:21Speaker 2: I lied to them, telling myself that I was doing
- 12:24Speaker 2: them a favor. I buried the bodies in the backyard
- 12:27Speaker 2: and wrapped my girlfriend's body in a bag and put
- 12:29Speaker 2: it in the back of my car. We were both
- 12:32Speaker 2: going on one last trip. I grabbed the most important
- 12:35Speaker 2: things and I went to my uncle's house in the woods.
- 12:38Speaker 2: I originally wanted to go to but my girlfriend didn't
- 12:41Speaker 2: want to. I guess what she once won't be a
- 12:44Speaker 2: problem now. I'm not going to lie to you. I'm
- 12:47Speaker 2: more and more amazed at how easy it is to kill.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Remember how I told you before that my former neighbors
- 12:53Speaker 2: judged me and treated me badly. That was because I
- 12:56Speaker 2: accidentally killed a teenager who wandered into our front yard.
- 13:00Speaker 2: I made everyone think I shot him, thinking that he
- 13:02Speaker 2: was a beef. But the truth is I knew what
- 13:06Speaker 2: I was doing and I liked it. I love my girlfriend,
- 13:10Speaker 2: but I didn't like her opinions on things, so maybe
- 13:13Speaker 2: it was a good thing I accidentally killed her, although
- 13:17Speaker 2: sometimes I wonder how accidental it was. Nowadays, we are
- 13:22Speaker 2: both far from civilization. There are no more noisy neighbors
- 13:26Speaker 2: or stalk are like willing to ruin our days. My
- 13:29Speaker 2: relationship with her is better than ever. We hardly even
- 13:32Speaker 2: argue anymore, and we get along great. Who knew we
- 13:36Speaker 2: just needed a little peace in our lives.
- 13:40Speaker 1: I moved into my new neighborhood a few weeks ago.
- 13:43Speaker 1: I thought it was a quiet street with kindly neighbors,
- 13:46Speaker 1: something that I don't mind in the least. I wanted
- 13:49Speaker 1: a quiet life, But something that happened a few days
- 13:52Speaker 1: ago has seriously made me consider moving. It all started
- 13:57Speaker 1: when I was unpacking my car when my next door
- 13:59Speaker 1: neighbors came over to introduce himself. He was a tall,
- 14:03Speaker 1: thin man with a squarish face and dark circles under
- 14:06Speaker 1: his eyes. His brown hair was already graying and had
- 14:09Speaker 1: a streak of white running through it. He seemed friendly enough,
- 14:13Speaker 1: but I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy around him. Hello, neighbor,
- 14:18Speaker 1: I noticed you're new here. You must be Jimmy, right,
- 14:21Speaker 1: Yes I am.
- 14:23Speaker 3: How did you know?
- 14:24Speaker 1: Oh, I'm on the board for the HOA and we
- 14:26Speaker 1: always discuss our newcomers. Welcome to the neighborhood. I live
- 14:30Speaker 1: right over there. I turned toward the house he was
- 14:33Speaker 1: pointing toward it, and the concern must have registered on
- 14:36Speaker 1: my face, because he began to talk again. Oh, sorry
- 14:40Speaker 1: about the boarded up windows. I realize they're not that welcoming,
- 14:43Speaker 1: but I'm getting some repairs done. Hey, I completely get that.
- 14:48Speaker 1: We chatted for a little while more, and he eventually
- 14:50Speaker 1: invited me to dinner. He said he always invited new
- 14:53Speaker 1: members of the HOA to dinner. I accepted his invitation
- 14:57Speaker 1: to dinner, but I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
- 15:00Speaker 1: I didn't know this man too well, and I didn't
- 15:02Speaker 1: know what to expect. As I finished offloading my car,
- 15:06Speaker 1: I glanced over at his house and felt a strange
- 15:09Speaker 1: chill run down my spine. My neighbor sat on his porch,
- 15:13Speaker 1: his eyes fixed on me as I worked. We made
- 15:16Speaker 1: eye contact and he smiled. It seemed friendly enough, but
- 15:20Speaker 1: something about it just didn't sit right with me. Still,
- 15:24Speaker 1: I decided to go to dinner anyway. He was on
- 15:27Speaker 1: the board of the HLA and I needed to make
- 15:29Speaker 1: a good impression. When I arrived at his house, he
- 15:32Speaker 1: greeted me at the door with a smile. He led
- 15:35Speaker 1: me into his living room, which was decorated in a
- 15:37Speaker 1: dark and macop style. There were black curtains drawn over
- 15:41Speaker 1: the boarded up windows, and the only light came from
- 15:44Speaker 1: a few candles on the coffee table. He offered me
- 15:47Speaker 1: a seat on the couch, and then he went into
- 15:49Speaker 1: the kitchen to get dinner ready. I sat there alone,
- 15:53Speaker 1: feeling increasingly uncomfortable. I could hear him banging around in
- 15:57Speaker 1: the kitchen, but I waited politely for him to return. Finally,
- 16:01Speaker 1: he came back into the living room with a plate
- 16:04Speaker 1: of cheese and crackers. He set it down in front
- 16:07Speaker 1: of me and then sat down across from me. I
- 16:10Speaker 1: hope you like chicken. It should be done soon. Until then,
- 16:13Speaker 1: here's some snacks. While eating the food. However, I began
- 16:16Speaker 1: to feel a little dizzy and my eyes began to close.
- 16:21Speaker 1: What's going on? I woke up, looking around desperately. I
- 16:26Speaker 1: felt my head clearing, and I began to realize what
- 16:30Speaker 1: had just happened. The low brick ceiling prevented me from
- 16:33Speaker 1: seeing too far into the dim room, but I did
- 16:36Speaker 1: see him. He stood there with a wide grin on
- 16:39Speaker 1: his face as he stared at me. Let's play a game,
- 16:43Speaker 1: shall we. What are you on about?
- 16:45Speaker 3: Let me go?
- 16:46Speaker 1: I will let you go, Jimmy, you just have to escape.
- 16:50Speaker 1: I'll give you a three minute head start. I wanted
- 16:53Speaker 1: to tackle him to the ground to fight him, but
- 16:56Speaker 1: I noticed a long metal shovel in his hand and
- 16:59Speaker 1: I thought better of it. Struggling to my feet, I
- 17:02Speaker 1: began to run. I still felt a bit dizzy, but
- 17:05Speaker 1: I managed to make my way up the stairs, lurching
- 17:08Speaker 1: from side to side. One, two, three, four five. I
- 17:16Speaker 1: could hear him counting and had sent chills down my spine.
- 17:20Speaker 1: I had to get out of fear. Rushing toward the
- 17:22Speaker 1: front door, I threw my body against it, but nothing happened.
- 17:26Speaker 1: The door was bolted shut, and I already knew that
- 17:29Speaker 1: the windows were still boarded up.
- 17:32Speaker 3: Damn it, damn it.
- 17:34Speaker 1: I turned around, desperately looking for a way to escape.
- 17:37Speaker 1: I could still hear him. Two minutes forty five, two
- 17:42Speaker 1: minutes forty six, I stood there, frozen in fear. I
- 17:46Speaker 1: could hear his footsteps now, and I knew that he
- 17:49Speaker 1: had finished counting. My head was finally clear, though, and
- 17:53Speaker 1: I forced myself into action. I could see him coming
- 17:56Speaker 1: out of the basement as I bolted for the stairs,
- 17:59Speaker 1: heading upwards. He held the shovel in his hands and
- 18:02Speaker 1: ran towards me, a maniac smile on his face. I
- 18:06Speaker 1: desperately ran up the stairs, dodging down one of the
- 18:09Speaker 1: many hallways in the house. I could still hear him
- 18:12Speaker 1: behind me, taunting.
- 18:13Speaker 4: Me, Jimmy, come out, I know where you are.
- 18:20Speaker 1: I threw open a door and climbed a flight of stairs. Suddenly, however,
- 18:24Speaker 1: I saw the outside. I saw a window that hadn't
- 18:27Speaker 1: been boarded up. I threw myself out the window in joy,
- 18:31Speaker 1: but froze in my tracks when I realized where I was.
- 18:34Speaker 1: I was on the roof of this three story house,
- 18:37Speaker 1: and I could hear him panting up the stairs behind.
- 18:40Speaker 4: Me, bap af so help me.
- 18:46Speaker 1: The neighbor emerged from the window, his eyes glinting with
- 18:49Speaker 1: malice as he approached me.
- 18:52Speaker 3: Looks like this is the end, Jimmy.
- 18:54Speaker 1: He walked towards me, slowly, raising a shovel above his head.
- 18:59Speaker 1: I cowered fear, expecting him to bring it down in
- 19:02Speaker 1: any second.
- 19:03Speaker 3: Well.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Suddenly, however, the neighbor fell. He tripped over a loose shingle,
- 19:08Speaker 1: his hands flailing as he tried to grab the roof,
- 19:11Speaker 1: but he was of no use. He fell, plummeting downward
- 19:15Speaker 1: as I bolted for the window. A few hours later,
- 19:17Speaker 1: I managed to break out of the house and call
- 19:19Speaker 1: the police. He might think this would be a happy ending,
- 19:23Speaker 1: but I don't. The police never found his body. Apparently
- 19:27Speaker 1: he fell into one of the bushes around his house
- 19:29Speaker 1: and managed to escape. What's worse is that last night,
- 19:33Speaker 1: as I was going to bed, I saw something. I
