3 Creepy True Hotel Horror Stories (Vol. 2) That Will Make You Question Your Next Stay · True Horror Stories

  Speaker 1: My family lives across the states in a small house.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: I try to visit often, given I usually get a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: lot of vacation time from my work. The drive is
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: something I find relaxing, so I don't mind the extra
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: couple days it takes to get there. Most of the time,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: I try to stay at one hotel or motel along
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: the way, and when I do, I just check in,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: sleep and get back on the road as soon as
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: I'm able. It's mainly because the areas along the drive
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: are bare and run down, usually in the middle of nowhere.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I find it hard to feel safe since I'm not
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: used to being in those kinds of areas. Last year,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I took the same road trip I always did to
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: my parents' house during the holiday season. I started my
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: drive early I want to stay around one or two AM,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: and drove for almost twenty hours straight, aside from stopping
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: for food and coffee a few times. By then, it
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: was eleven PM and I was exhausted and struggling to
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: stay awake behind the wheel. I was just under eight
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: hours away, but I couldn't go much further. I was
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere, so whatever the next possible
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: place to stay at was I planned on taking it.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: About twenty minutes further, I turned off into a small town.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: It pretty much just had a motel and gas station,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: but that was all I needed. I pulled into the
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: mostly empty parking lot and walked over to the front desk.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: An older lady greeted me and made small talk. Then
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: I got a room and headed back to my car
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: so I could part closer to the door. I was
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: extremely exhausted and left all my stuff in the car
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: and just went inside. I didn't care about the room
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: at all. I just went inside and immediately got in
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: the shower so I could get ready for bed as
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: soon as possible. During my quick five minute shower, I
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: heard a few tapping sounds. They sounded like they were
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: from outside, though maybe a tree branch knocking against the building.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I thought nothing of it and got out, putting on
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the same comfortable clothes I was wearing, and then got
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: in bed. I set an alarm on my phone so
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't oversleep, and finally reached for the lamp and
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: turned off the light.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Being at an old.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Run down motel in the middle of nowhere seemed irrelevant
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: compared to how tired I was so I fell asleep
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: without trouble, though I didn't stay asleep for long. I
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: jumped awake, hearing something move in the darkness surrounding the bed.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I sat up, staring toward the front door, but I
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: could barely see anything. I was too scared to move
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and reach for the light, afraid.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Of what I might see.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: It wasn't long before I heard something from the other
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: side of the bed, outside the window. My heart was
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: racing and I could feel myself starting to sweat as
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I was wide awake. At this point, I quickly turned
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: back around and switched on the light. The room was empty,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: nothing seemed out of place until I noticed the closet
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: door was cracked open. Everything was going through my mind,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: trying to understand every possibility.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Hello. I decided to.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Call out, but there was no response. Feeling like I
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: may have just scared myself for no reason, I got
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: up and slowly walked towards the closet. When I pulled
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: the closet door more open, I was confused. A large
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: bag was wedged between the back of the closet and
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: the door, falling to the ground as I opened it further.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Looking around, there was actually a whole stash of luggage, clothes, bags, appliances,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: all clearly belonging to someone, not the typical stuff you
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: would see at a motel. While I was looking at
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: all this stuff, I suddenly heard the window slam shut
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: by my bed, followed by footsteps running away. I shivered
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: and froze, then took this chance to grab my phone
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: from the night stand and run out to my car.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Almost just as I got inside and turned the car on,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I looked up and made eye contact with a man
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: standing right by the.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Door to the room.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: He looked at me for a second, then rushed inside
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and grabbed one of the large bags from the closet
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and sprinted off behind the building. I was terrified and
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: quickly drove closer to the front office, then ran inside
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: to tell the woman what had happened. She contacted the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: police immediately and locked us both inside the office until
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: they arrived. What we found out next was confusing, and
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the information came out over multiple weeks, but I'll try
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: to explain it the best I can. The remaining bags
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: in the closet were identified as they were found to
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: belong to several individuals who were robbed within the past month.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: At several different motel locations in the surrounding area. It's
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: likely that the man was using the room I was
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: in as a place to temporarily stash the belongings, using
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: the unlocked window to access the room. One of those bags, however,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: belonged to a young woman who was reported missing just
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: a few weeks prior, and the officers believed the crimes
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: are connected. But all the parted bags that were stolen
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: were found inside that closet, so the bag that the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: man ran inside to grab was not accounted for. They
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: questioned me on it multiple times, making sure I was
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: confident that I saw him run out with another bag,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and asking me the approximate size of it. In everything,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: my curiosity has really kept my mind from being able
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: to forget that night, as I wonder what he planned
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: on doing when he was outside the window while I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: was sleeping. I knew it was closed when I went
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: to bed, so he had to have opened it while
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I was asleep, which is even creepier. I also wonder
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: what was in that one bag that was so important
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: that he needed to grab it before running off. I
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: don't go on many vacations, nor do I stay at
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: hotels often, but last year I had a problem occurr
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: in my small house that required me to be away
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: for several days for it to be fixed. Given the circumstances,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: I had to book a hotel nearby and stay there
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: until further notice. I wasn't happy about it, but there
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: wasn't anything I could do and nowhere else.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I could stay.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I looked for the absolute cheapest hotel in the area,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: trying to save as much money as possible. The one
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I went with was twenty five minutes away, but was
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: half the price of the ones closer. Although I knew
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: it was because the hotel was located in the lesser
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: part of the town, the extra money saved more than
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: made up for it in my mind. That was until
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I got there. The place was disgusting, at least on
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: the outside. Trash was everywhere, and the building was very
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: clearly not taken care of. The pictures online only showed
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the rooms in the lobby, but they looked clean and
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: somewhat nice, so I was a little bit confused. I
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: grabbed my small suitcase from my back seat and walked inside. Immediately.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: When entering, I was relieved. The lobby was very small,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: but it was nice, and I headed for the counter
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: to check in, but nobody was standing there. I stood
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: patiently for a minute looking around the main room. It
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: was very quiet and not a single person was anywhere.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: It was only four pm, so I assumed people would
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: be walking around or hanging out in the lobby. I
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: took a few steps further into the hotel, looking down
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: the main hallway leading to the rooms. At the very
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: end was a man standing right outside a room door.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: After watching him for a few seconds, it was apparent
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: that he was just facing the door, not moving or anything.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Feeling uncomfortable, I backed up to the front counter again. Finally,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: a man came from outside and walked behind the counter. Honestly,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: he looked dead inside. He asked for my name and
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: gave me the key card, then walked away. I glanced
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: at the cart, seeing the room number written with a
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: marker in the corner. Given the low number, I knew
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: it was on the first floor. I walked over it
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: to the hallway I was just at and looked at
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: the directions for where the rooms were, and my stomach
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: ached a bit when I realized it was down the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: hallway where I'd seen that man. Even worse. As I
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: started making my way down, I realized it was at
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the end of the hallway, right where the man was standing.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I couldn't tell if he was standing outside my exact
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: room or not because of how far he was when
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I saw him, but it was creepy either way. Although
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I hadn't been to many hotels previously, I do remember
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: the annoyance of the thin walls allowing you to hear
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: every noise from every room. What was strange as I
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: walked down the hall was that there was no noise
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: coming from any room. No TVs were on, nobody was talking,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: no movement, nothing. It gave me chills, but when I
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: reached my door, I quickly scanned the card and headed inside.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Given everything, it was actually in good condition. It was
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: very small and was clearly old, but it was exactly
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: what I expected of the cheap room. I laid my
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: suitcase down on the floor, then took a look into
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: the bathroom to make sure it was good, and finally
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: locked the door and sat on the couch, not at
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: all surprised. The TV didn't work, though, so I was
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: left with just my phone. After an hour of trying
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: to keep myself occupied, a knock came from the door.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: It startled me given it was just a single knock,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: which sounded more like a hit. The door had no peephole,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: so when I got there, I flicked the safety latch
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: over just in case, and opened the door a crack.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: That same man from earlier was standing in the hallway,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: only a foot or so from the door. We made
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: eye contact through the crack in the door.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Hi, did you need something? Yeah?
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: I paused, waiting for him to tell me what, but
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: he just stood there like he was waiting for me
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: to say something.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, man, what do you need? Then?
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I said, in a way to show that I was
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: clearly bothered by him. The strange man responded, claiming he
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: was the previous person staying in my room and that
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: he had accidentally left something important inside one of the drawers.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I said okay and told him I would grab it
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: real quick, and began closing the door and turning round.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: But the man pushed the door back, slamming it against
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: the safety latch. I looked back at him, my heart
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: starting to race as I was getting a really bad
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: feeling about this. It's in the top dresser drawer. The
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: man muttered to me, then backed up, letting the door close.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I turned back around, heading to the dresser and opening
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: the top drawer. Inside there was actually a small sized
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: box taped shut on the top. Picking it up, it
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: was fairly light, though I mean like it felt empty.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I walked back over to the door and opened it,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: seeing the man still standing.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: There. Is this what you were looking for? I asked.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: The man nodded and held his hand out. I went
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: to slip the box through the crack in the door,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: but it was barely too big. I tried every possible angle,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: probably looking like an idiot, but it was just slightly
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: too wide on every side. The man looked impatient, and
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: while I really didn't trust this place at the moment,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: I thought the guy had told the truth about leaving
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: something behind, and I did see him standing by the
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: door before, so I figured it'd be fine to open
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: the door for a second, just to hand him the box.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: As soon as I moved the latch over, the man
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: rammed his body into the door, knocking me down and
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: pulling a gun on me. He yelled at me to
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: back up into the living room and stand against the wall.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I was actually stunned at how loud he was screaming,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: thinking surely he would alarm everyone in the building. He
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: grabbed my whole suitcase and continued looking around while holding
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: the gun at me. Then, just when he was about
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: to leave, he walked up to me, put the pistol
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: just inches from my face and stared me in the eyes.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I was shaking in fear staring into this man's rage
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: filled eyes. But after a few seconds he backed up
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: and ran away with my stuff. I stood in that
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: same spot for probably a whole minute, staring at the ground.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: It happened so fast it almost didn't even seem real.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: When I finally got myself together, I went outside my
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: room and went straight to the front desk. The guy
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: there was just casually standing there, like he didn't hear anything,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: and nobody else was in sight. To sum everything up,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: nothing was done. He got away with all my stuff,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: and honestly, every authority figure I talked to didn't seem
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: scared or surprised in any way. They kind of just
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: looked at me like I didn't even belong here anyways.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: I guess it was just normal and they expect you
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: to look out for yourself. The box was in fact empty, though,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: and the whole thing was obviously just an interesting plot
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: to rob.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Those who stayed at the hotel.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Those last moments before the man ran away, though, are
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: what I keep thinking back to, the rage in his eyes,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: holding the gun up like he was ready to pull
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: the trigger without thinking twice. Why didn't he My only
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: thought was that maybe he knew that if it was
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: just a robbery, then nobody would come looking. I don't know,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: but I definitely won't be staying at a cheap hotel
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: in a bad neighborhood ever.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Again.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: This happened while I was on a work trip. I
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: work for an insurance company and we can win trips
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: to our other two big locations, one of which happens
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: to be in Miami. I won the trip and went
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: with my boss and a few other people in the company.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Most of the trip was spent doing work stuff during
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the day, and then at night we were left to
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: do what we wanted, like go to the hotel, pool
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: bars in town, and all that other stuff. It was
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: the second to last night I was there, and I
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: didn't have much to do the next day, so me
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and a coworker went out to a cool looking bar
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: on First Street. We took an uber and got there
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: around eleven p m. Miami is a party city and
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: the night life there is amazing. The bar was packed
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: and it made me feel like I was in college again.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I wasn't that old, but I'd.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Been out of college for a few years now. My
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: coworker gets us shots, and throughout the night we have
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: some more, and he ends up inviting two girls to
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: the table and buys them shots as well. He hits
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: it off with one of them and the other one
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: seems to take a liking to me. I'd been single
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: for quite some time and work had taken over my life,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: so I was honestly just excited someone was showing interest
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: in me. Plus I was on vacation and she says
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: she was too, so neither of us were expecting anything
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: serious out of this.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I thought she was really cool.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: And extremely attractive, and throughout the night I offered to
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: buy her drinks, but she bought her own, which I
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: thought was really cool too. It was around two am
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: now and she asked if I wanted to go back
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: to her hotel, which I found out was only a
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: fifteen minute walk from mine. I agreed, but honestly was
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: pretty nervous. I knew this girl was way out of
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: my league, but I decided to have fun and take
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: a chance.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: We ubered back to her hotel.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Which was insanely nice by the way, and.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Got to the room.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I'll spare you the details, but events occurred and afterwards
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: we ended up talking for a bit. After a while,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I noticed she was starting to get glued to her phone,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: so I went to the bathroom to clean up and
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: get dressed. But while I was in there, I heard
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: a key card open the door to the room and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: was confused. She never mentioned that she was here with anyone,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: and I didn't see anyone else's stuff in the room either,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: And that's when I heard a man's voice. My heart
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: dropped to my stomach. I quickly got dressed and checked
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: if I had everything. I had my phone and wallet,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: which were in my pants pocket, but my shoes were
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: still out there. I decided i'd have to leave them,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: as I could not deal with whatever this is right now.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: While I was waiting for my time to slip out,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: I heard him ask why there's men's shoes by the bed.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: That's when I knew I was screwed. By the time
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: I made the decision to make a run for it.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: There was a pounding on the bathroom door. It was
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: one of those doors that slide open and doesn't really lock,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: so of course the cheap thing revealed me behind it.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: This guy was huge.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: I could not have been more unlucky if I tried
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: the cherry on top was. He also had a gun
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: and was pointing it right at me. He told me
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: to get my shit and get out, in the most
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: calm voice that made everything ten times scarier. I grabbed
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: my shoes and left my heart beating out of my chest.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: He closed the door behind me, and then silence. I
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: didn't hear any fighting or yelling or anything, which I
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: thought was weird, but I wasn't going to stay to
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: find out. I got in the elevator and took my
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: wallet out to get my key card, and what do
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: you know, all my cash was gone, my credit card,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: my debit card, even my gift cards were taken. I
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: don't even know when she had the time to take
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: all this stuff and how I didn't notice. I tried
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: thinking back to the bar and going into the room,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: but the night had turned into a blur. I spent
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: the next hour canceling my cards, pissed that for the
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: rest of the trip, I would have absolutely no money.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: The next day I told my boss and co workers,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: who sympathized but also found it funny. And now that
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: it's been a few years since that incident, I can
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: look back and find the humor in it. But what's
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: stuck with me was one of my friends theorized it
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: might have been a setup that might not have been
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: her boyfriend at all. She could have taken me back
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: to the hotel, stole my stuff, and waited till I
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: went to the bathroom for the guy to come in
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: and scare me off before I noticed the money was gone.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: If that's the case, it would explain why I didn't
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: hear any fighting after I left, and why the guy
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: wasn't more angry. I try not to think about it
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: too hard, and anytime I go out, which isn't much anymore,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I try to keep myself safer and make better decisions.
