good evening everyone I'm the Storyteller and I'm here to help you fall asleep with these horror stories from Airbnb so before we get started be sure to subscribe to the channel and like the video I'd love to know where you're from and what time you're watching this so leave it in the comments when you're ready get comfortable and [Music] relax I'm a fan of travel especially those that I do solo whenever I have some money saved up and a couple of days off I go on an adventure to some this may sound weird but going
on a solo trip is like a meditation for me so after a crazy week at work I decided it was time to take a break however I'm not a big money guy nothing to see I usually travel on a budget so my preferred options are to stay on Airbnb or with local families a colleague recommended a place near the coast that was selling pretty well so I took a look and chose a cottage near the beach the host was an Italian guy named luk who lived there with his daughter he had another house on the
same property and since I had been on this type of stay before I didn't hesitate for a second to make the reservation finally the day of departure arrived and my excitement was mounting imagining how much fun I was going to have over the next few days so I jumped in my car and headed for that getaway I so desperately needed what I love about long trips is that you start enjoying the ride even before you reach your destination and in this case the scenery was incredible with Rusty Hills on one side and the end less
Ocean on the other at one point I had to stop at a gas station because my GPS went crazy that station was like a place out of a horror movie suddenly a guy appeared with a scruffy beard and a smell well very unpleasant to say the least his clothes were full of stains and he looked at me as if he was sizing me up for a mugging frankly it gave me a very bad feeling but I still asked him for the address I needed at that moment he looked at my phone and his face changed
he drew a disturbing smile and told me to take the next exit to the left and then to the right the way he dismissed me saying have fun gave me goosebumps as I followed the road I couldn't help but think that maybe I had made the wrong choice but as I approached the beach house I realized that I had not made a mistake in my choice on the contrary the property was like a dream come true for any traveler the place was really beautiful and it was just as I imagined it to be I honked
the horn as I arrived and a man in his 50s came running out to me opened the door and said with a broad smile welcome to my home on the beach I am Lucas your host I thanked him enthusiastically and when I entered the little wooden house seemed ideal for a loner like me simple but nice and cozy it had a balcony directly overlooking the sea which I fell in love with as soon as I saw it at that moment I felt an enormous desire to leave my things lying around and just dive into the
water Lucas very kindly handed me the keys to the house and invited me to the lunch his daughter was preparing I already had my own meal plans but decided to accept out of politeness and once he left I dove into the ocean with my whole being I couldn't remember the last time I felt so alive since breaking up with my ex floating in the cold water and looking up at the clouds I felt rejuvenated and that burst of energy was just what I needed at that moment after cooling off for a while I decided to
get ready and head out Lucas's house was just across the lawn in the Tranquility of that place enveloped me completely I knocked on the door a little nervously and in a second it burst open but I wasn't expecting what I saw there right in front of me was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen hi you're Jacob right come on in Daddy's in the basement I'm Alisa nice to meet you she said holding out her hand to me with a smile that made me forget everything around me for a moment I shook her hand
gently introduced myself stuttering from nerves and feeling very stupid and Then followed her as she led me inside as if I were in a dream she made me sit at the living room table and went out for for a moment to find her father as we ate lunch I couldn't take my eyes off Alisa she was incredibly Charming I felt lucky to have chosen this place and after we finished I thanked them both for the delicious meal and decided to go back to my room it was the perfect time to take a nap and of
course I dreamed of Alisa before a loud bang woke me up with a start at that moment I jumped out of bed and headed for the porch my heart was beating out of control because I had no doubt that was a gunshot and it had come from Lucas in Alisa's house as I opened the door another shot rang out followed by a scream that froze my blood it was Alisa with trembling feet I began to walk towards the house feeling fear take hold of me I peaked out the porch window and what I saw there
took my breath away Mr Lucas was sitting in a chair half his head blown off his blood and remnants of his brain mass were scattered on the White Walls behind him while Alisa was tied to another chair shot in the arm her face full of tears of pain in front of her two men and black masks were arguing one of them threatened her while the other searched the house that's when I heard a familiar voice it was the guy from the gas station he is here where is the man I gave him the instructions we
will shoot that dog and take everything he has so tell us if you want to stay alive Elisa bravely replied he's not here my dad and I are the only ones but the guy replied well I'm going to trust you even though I don't think your old man is alive to tell I realized that the situation was much more serious than I thought this was the guy who had been at the gas station and had planned the robbery before I arrived I was sickened by the realization that he had wanted me to have fun I
felt completely hopeless and helpless and began to look around for anything that might be of use that's when I saw a shovel lying on the ground that gave me an idea I threw a stone onto the porch to distract them and then ran to the back of the house and grabbed the shovel I heard the man yell you stay here I'm going to check the other cabin this girl is lying to me as soon as he came out I took the opportunity to go in through the back window and give the other guy a good
whack with the shovel I hit him as hard as I could and he fell to the ground unconscious I quickly freed Elisa and carried her into the room closing the door behind us you should go you can't save me that guy had a gun and he already killed my dad he'll kill me too Alisa said distraught I can't leave you here I won't leave you alone I replied feeling that connection from the first moment I saw her it's not fair that you are in this you should go she insisted but I didn't listen of course
I wasn't going to escape and leave her there at the mercy of those murderers as I was thinking about how to escape I heard heavy footsteps approaching so you knocked out my partner now I'll shoot you both dead the man shouted and his running echoed down the stairs I knew then that we wouldn't have time but what could I do he had us trapped adrenaline was coursing through my veins as I tried to find a way out of this deadly situation we were in a Race Against Time and I knew I had to be resourceful
if I wanted to keep Alisa safe the guy started banging on the door yelling open up I know you're in there Alisa was shaking and her injured arm was soaked in blood I knew that if we didn't get to the hospital soon she would bleed out so I grabbed the shovel one more time and headed for the door what are you doing are you going to open it she asked me in Fright sometimes the simplest thing is the best best thing so I decided to take a chance with shovel in hand I braced myself and
swung the door open knowing it was hit or Die the man on the other side wasn't expecting that so I wasn't ready to shoot and taking advantage of that couple of seconds of carelessness I whacked him in the head with all my might and he fell to the ground holding his head and dropping his gun I instantly picked it up and aimed it at him without hesitation one false move and bye-bye I warned him and guess what at that precise in the cops arrived at first they pointed the gun at me but Alisa quickly made
it clear to them that the thief was the one in the apartment the officers arrested the two criminals that night and it turned out that the guy was not even the owner of the gas station but the real owner had been killed and robbed by them the most disturbing thing is that the guy could have ended up with me at the gas station but he wanted to play his card shrewdly and it cost him dearly 7 years have passed since that Madness and Alisa and I are now married happy and expecting our first baby I
may not be a great Storyteller but I have an amazing story to tell our son This is How I Met Your Mother I'll tell him it's not exactly a fairy tale but it's a tale of love and bravery that was born in a time of [Music] Terror I'm a 25-year-old guy who used to work for the famous hosting company Airbnb for the few who don't know it's a service where people rent out their house or apartment as an alternative to a hotel sounds great right but there's a problem the legal issue is a bit complicated
you see there are no laws against it but they don't protect you as a renter either if the host decides to cancel your reservation you're out in a heartbeat and could end up on the street or Worse face trespassing charges if it gets serious in short we must be well prepared which is why we are constantly training ourselves it all started when on my way to work I hit treacherous during a snowstorm so temporarily I was forced to use the light rail to get to work good thing I live right next to a station so
it wasn't that complicated I called the office that day to let them know I would be late and to my good fortune they accepted with no problem when I finally arrived the trainer sat me down between two female colleagues who were chatting animatedly rather like guacharacas I tried to calm them down so I could listen but the girl to my left Lily seemed to ignore me completely talking as if she were the only one in the room to my right was Amy doing the same and complicating things but in the middle of this there was
another girl Susanna sitting next to Lily trying to join in the conversation she had the loudest voice but honestly they weren't paying attention to her her comments were stilted and not really relevant you could tell she didn't know what she was talking about which made her look a little bad to the others when the first break came we all went to the dining room and heeding that saying that if you can't beat the enemy you might as well join in I started chatting with them now however the talk turned to everyone's romantic relationships Lily who
was single confessed that she was in love with our coach Amy on the other hand was engaged and I was talking about my girl who I had been in love with since I was 12 and was planning to propose to her soon both girls were really excited for me and we started planning all the details from proposal ideas to things to avoid however in the middle of our chatter Susanna appeared and suddenly took control of the conversation I have a partner too she said with a twinkle in her eye this girl in her early 20s
mentioned that her boyfriend was 38 had a house of his own in a BMW at first I didn't judge her for dating someone older but as we asked questions it seemed like she was making up everything about the guy they weren't malicious questions we just wanted to know a little more about their relationship but she insisted he's not exactly my boyfriend he's married he says he's just waiting for a divorce and as soon as I finalize the papers I can move in with him I was already starting to feel uncomfortable with the conversation the way
she was talking about her situation made me doubt her reality was it all true or was she deluding herself as the talk progressed that uncomfortable air surrounded her and I realized I was getting into something I didn't want to get into the atmosphere became tense and strange for some reason in the middle of her story she seemed to be flirting with me she started hinting at sexual things and every time she did she would give me a sidelong glance and then go back to talking like it was nothing it made me nervous and truth be
told I think for a relationship to work there has to be a spark between two people and I wasn't feeling anything for this girl after the training session I got ready to leave for the Light Rail station but there was at least 2 ft of snow on the ground in light of this Amy offered to give me a ride home because she lived down the road from me I gladly accepted and told her she could fill up her gas tank as a thank you but that's when Susanna came out of nowhere again and asked for
a ride too why don't you drop me off at the train station next to schwarts she said I didn't think much of it at first but it seemed odd that she wanted to get off right next to where I lived there was another station much closer and that left me with a bad feeling so I made up an emergency and asked Amy if she'd better drop me off at my leasing office which was closer I was relieved when she agreed I didn't want anyone to know exactly where I lived I then walked home since it
wasn't too far that afternoon since I didn't want to go out in the snow again and I had lost my car I decided to order pizza it had been a while and the snow wasn't helping with the traffic finally after 45 minutes the delivery guy arrived but not only did he bring the pizza he also handed me a letter that he said was on our doormat I was curious we had just moved in and didn't know the neighbors maybe it was from one of them I thought but I wish I hadn't opened it it was
a letter from Susan with the envelope full of hearts and her initials on one of them how did she know what building I lived in I thought intrigued even my apartment number was in there without thinking I tore the letter into pieces and threw it away fearful that my girlfriend would see it and think what it wasn't looking back I know it was a stupid decision but I wasn't prepared for what would happen the next day when I got to work Susan came up to me with that smile that irritated me did you get the
gift I left you yesterday she asked I almost had a fit how did you know where I lived I replied trying to remain calm I used my admin credentials to access the test list you created yesterday at training I hope you don't mind she said making her best attempt to sound koi however anger flooded through me this is a total invasion of my privacy you knew I have a girlfriend and I'm planning to propose to her soon if I ever see anything from you again I won't hesitate to call the police I shouted full of
Fury then I turned my back on her and walked to my cubicle she didn't say anything after that a couple of weeks went by and Susanna kept showing up every time I was talking to Lily and Amy she would interrupt and make the conversation turn to her life and her boyfriend her stories about her sex life were becoming increasingly uncomfortable I have no problem with other people's tastes or lives but I didn't want to hear their details so graphically especially at work the worst part is that even though we were talking about relationships the topic
of sex had never come up before it was as if she wanted to force her narrative on everyone listening every time Susanna got into the conversation the atmosphere became heavy and I just wanted to get away from her I was stuck in a terrifying rut that I didn't know how to stop it was a nightmare I couldn't handle Susanna kept messaging me on Google Hangouts the only way to communicate at work since personal phones are not allowed imagine we were on the production floor and had access to sensitive data of our users like addresses and
card numbers so Hangouts was our only Channel she would text me things like I'm sorry forgive me I really like you and I didn't know how to tell you can we start over I ignored all those messages until I finally decided to block her but paradoxically instead of calming down she only became more aggressive she started asking why don't you like me is it because I'm fat or something and then she would go on to weird things like I'd let you do whatever you want with me just tell me your darkest fantasy and I'll fulfill
it and most disturbing of all if you don't come to me tonight I'll say you molested me there I was no longer silent and went to human resources to file a complaint about her harassment and the fact that she had used her administrator privileges to obtain my personal information when I got to the HR office I expected them to do something about it but they completely ignored me they told me it was just a girl crush and that I should be flattered yeah right after after all guys can't be victims of sexual harassment right I
was really outraged by their inaction and the little importance they gave to my complaint but there was nothing more I could do I was on my own apparently a month went by and although I was promoted to a level two it wasn't really a promotion as it involved a hell of a lot more work such as mediating between hosts and guests in their disputes the weird thing was that thankfully we were split into teams me and Amy Lily and Suzanne however that didn't stop her Susanna would follow me to the water fountain stand behind me
and then sit down after I left it was like she was always stalking me and it was driving me crazy 2 weeks later I got a call to go to HR again I thought that maybe finally this was all over but I was wrong I was told that Susanna had filed a sexual assault charge against me insisting that I tried to rape her in the bathroom I was shocked I asked them what proof they had and they replied that they didn't need it their word was enough why would you lie about something like that said
the female graduate who I later Learned was a leader of the feminist movement in the city and in her opinion Susanna was the brave victim who was daring to denounce while I was the suspect I was outraged but when I tried to leave the office security blocked my exit they pushed me back and I yelled at them that they knew they had no evidence that they couldn't do anything to me until I can walk free I'll be at my desk I told them Furious finally they let me go and I ran back to my desk
hoping that by blocking Susanna on Hangouts at least my messages wouldn't disappear I knew I had to do something before this all got out of hand I had to proved that she was lying but how could I do that when everyone seemed to be on her side with each passing day the situation became more oppressive and I felt more and more trapped fortunately I wasn't arrested I had been saving screenshots of all the things Susanna had been sending me for the past 3 months so when the two cops arrived about 10 minutes later I was
ready to yell at them look at my computer screen everyone on the production floor some 250 people immediately went quiet most suspended calls with customers just to find out the gossip of the day one of the cops sat down at my desk and started checking my messages a few minutes passed it felt like hours and finally he got up and told them to let me go then they brought Susanna in and the same officer looked her in the eye and asked I want to know the truth did this guy really rape you she simply nodded
and the policeman surprised replied really then explain to us this message you sent 2 months ago where you said you would say he raped you if he didn't spend the night with you having been found out Susanna started crying and tried to change the story claiming that it was me who harassed her but thank God the officer did not believe her he told her look we have all the evidence we need to disprove what you say but if you insist on accusing him we can investigate just be careful because if you're proven to be lying
you'll be in worse trouble than he was even so she maintained her version insisting that he had attacked her in the women's bathroom and so I was formally arrested and taken to the police station for questioning they made me a rape kit and asked for a DNA sample which of course I gave without hesitation I spent the next two days in jail and informed my family but I told them they didn't have to spend money on my bail because I knew I was innocent on the third day I was released they didn't press charges because
Susanna finally confessed that it was all a lie the cops asked me if I wanted to sue her for false accusation but I decided to refuse I was relieved that she had been fired from her job and given a restraining order however my girlfriend decided to break up with me she said she could never trust me again even after I was found not guilty I guess the silver lining in all of this was that I was able to return the ring I had bought to propose to her and use it to buy a new car
EV eventually I managed to leave that place and moved across town I got a new job at another Airbnb office and started over praying every day that I would never cross paths with Susanna again the experience had been terrifying and had left deep marks on me but I learned to move on and to value my freedom as for my ex I guess that's the only positive part that situation helped me realize that she was definitely not the one after finishing High School my sister and I decided to take a getaway to the country booking an
Airbnb seemed like a good choice for a little more Comfort even though Riley was only a couple of years older than me she always acted like she was the oldest and therefore the one who had the last word sometimes her manner would get on my nerves but the truth was that she really cared so I didn't argue with her about it on that occasion we chose a small and cozy cabin in the middle of the forest and the main reason for choosing that place was that it was right next to a beautiful waterfall we thought
it would be an ideal place to disconnect and relax we were driving through those wide corn fields while the birds were singing and that really calmed me down I opened the car window and let the Cool Breeze ruffle our hair and then Riley put on his favorite music and we started chatting laughing and having a great time after a bunch of turns we finally came to a dusty trail surrounded by dense forest and the shade of the Big Trees created an eerie Atmos atmosphere around us Riley turned down the volume of the music and asked
me if I could hear anything yes the sound of water I said excited we close he told me I sped up a bit anxious to get there and when we saw a fork we consulted the GPS to confirm that we needed to go right it took about 15 to 20 more minutes and at last we arrived the cabin was exactly as it looked in the photo on the website Tall Pines all around and a trail leading into the forest on one side when we got out of the car we called the owner who told us
we would be alone and that the key was hidden under a mat Riley opened the door and was the first to enter we were both amazed the cabin was cozy and very organized it had a small living room connected to the kitchen on one side and two bedrooms on the other we saw that one overlooked the hiking trail while the other offered a beautiful view of the trees I chose the second one because waking up to the sunrise Sun through the trees seemed like a good plan the only drawback was that the bathroom was outside
in the back the thought of having to leave the cabin in the middle of the night to use it scared me a little but there was no other option so I went to take a shower while Riley organized the kitchen we had brought everything we needed when I got to the bathroom I turned the faucet and the shower started spewing cold water but as I was shampooing my hair and humming I suddenly felt a strange sensation it was as if I was not alone in that bathroom I had my eyes closed because of the shampoo
so I couldn't see anything but I tried not to think about that I just concentrated on washing my hair since I was wearing it long and with the breeze on the road it had become too Tangled but suddenly my hand brushed the back of my head and surprisingly I felt another hand on me at that moment all the hairs on the back of my neck stood up and I rinsed my face as fast as I could then opened my eyes but there was no one there with me I checked the lock on the door and
it was fine so I told myself it was just my mind playing tricks after a long trip when I got back to the cabin I saw Riley cooking lunch she smiled and asked me how everything went did they call you or something I asked trying to sound nonchalant no I've been here cooking the whole time why is something wrong with you I laughed trying to disguise it though my smile felt a little forced I had freaked out a little in the shower I said don't worry you'll get used to it Riley said trying to reassure
me I know the bathroom is a little weird a lot of cabins have this setup but if if you're scared to go alone at night you can always wake me up I'm your big sister so I can protect you she told me with that teasing twinkle in her eye I looked at her with a mixture of irritation and laughter and said shut up and cook your food I didn't want to wind her up anymore especially since she was already making fun of me for scaring her anyway after a nice lunch we decided to go for
a drive before the sun went down since we didn't want to risk a trail hike after dark we went into the woods full on as we walked I noticed some sort of tower in the distance what's that I asked pointing with my hand Riley followed me frowning pushing aside branches and bushes as we went as we reached it I noticed some sort of strange Monument the tower was a gray color that made it look most somber it looked like an Epitaph a marble Tombstone is it really a tomb I wondered feeling a shiver run through
me Riley walked over to read the inscription here lies my beloved wife Ed it I hope she rests in peace he said in a low voice I stopped dead in my tracks processing what he was reading why didn't the owner mention this to us I asked somewhat annoyed it's not nice to find out there's a grave near where we're staying and why should he tell us he replied imagine telling new guests that there's a cemetery next door no one would want to stay here Riley laughed at me for getting on my nerves but it really
unnerved me as I looked at her I couldn't help but remember what I had felt in the shower something in the back of my head told me we shouldn't be in that place how could she have died I muttered as Riley began to Circle The Headstone and then I followed her a few minutes later the sky turned red and orange from the sunset and birds could be heard returning to their nests I felt a shiver run through me as I read the last part of the inscription I hope she rests in peace now what did
that mean did she have a hard life why the now I was deep in thought when suddenly I heard a rustling behind me I turned quickly and nearly jumped in Fright boo yelled Riley laughing at me it's not funny Riley I said angrily as I started walking towards the cabin okay sorry he apologized laughing at his silly joke we walked into the place and after a while I decided to let it go and forgave her it was for the best because her insistent apology was already starting to annoy me night finally fell and we started
to have a drink to relax relax and forget about the grave Riley when drunk wouldn't stop talking especially about our ex partners and all the bad stuff that had happened most of the time I would just nod opting not to get involved in that drama eventually we both got carried away and before we knew it we were pretty dizzy after a while I got the urge to go to the bathroom so I grabbed a flashlight and went outside seeing that Riley was already sound asleep even though I was scared I didn't want to wake her
up so I just walked to the bathroom and as I sat on the toilet the noises of the forest became clearer and clearer owls hooting and coyotes howling in the distance could be heard but just as I was about to finish my work I heard a rustling outside I tried to convince myself it was nothing so I closed the door but just as I was about to leave I noticed a nearby Bush then in the dim Moonlight I saw a woman standing next to it I couldn't quite make out her face but even in the
darkness her eyes glowed in a very haunting way who are you I asked feeling my heart pounding but I got no response from the woman and in the midst of my drunkenness I began to think that maybe it was all Riley's joke Riley I'm tired of your jokes I yelled but instead of her the woman took a step toward me and there the Moonlight illuminated her figure then I realized two things that it wasn't Riley and how huge her belly was what the hell why is there a pregnant woman roaming the woods at this hour
I yelled are you okay lady do you need help but she just stood there there staring at me with those weird eyes that glowed in the dark at that moment I remembered I had a flashlight in my back pocket so I pulled it out and pointed it at her but when I did it was gone where did she go I thought looking around full of confusion there was no sign of her just me in the middle of the darkness I rubbed my eyes several times trying to make my mind clear the madness and then went
back to the cabin upon arrival I opened the door and crawled into bed feeling quite groggy so I decided it would be best to sleep and tell Riley what I had seen in the morning truth be told I don't remember when I fell asleep but around 3:00 in the morning I was awakened by a knock next to me the room was in complete darkness so I moved my hand across the space beside my bed something told me someone was there I thought maybe I had wandered into Riley's room during my drunkenness after all she was
too close almost leaving me no room I tried to move her without waking her but suddenly I touched her belly and felt something wet Riley did you pee yourself or what I said gez why the hell babies when you can't handle this I reproached her as I turned on the nightstand light then I jumped out of bed as I noticed my hands they were soaked in thick blood the smell turned my stomach immediately I looked down at the bed for the person next to me and almost had a heart attack there was a dead woman
lying on the bed her throat was slit in a gruesome way that made her vocal cords hang out but what really froze me was seeing her open belly where her baby's tiny hand was peeking out it was the same pregnant woman I saw before I can't describe how terrifying that was but the worst was about to happen just at that moment when I felt my heart was about to burst out of my throat the dead woman looked at me and blinked twice that was too much I collapsed to the floor in a panic screaming as
if my life was at stake Riley heard my screams and ran to my room and there he found me passed out on the floor I never told him what I saw that night it was too horrible but luckily it didn't happen again as time went on I became obsessed with finding out what had happened in that cabin so I did a lot of research even contacting some people in the area to get the truth out in the open and what I discovered was chilling it turns out that many years ago a couple lived there everything
seemed to be going well until the husband began to suspect that his wife was unfaithful in anguish one night the husband decided to end her life she was 8 months pregnant and after killing her he not only disposed of her and the baby but also made a grave for her right next to the cabin I don't know if the man is still alive but I still have nightmares about that night and I keep fighting with the B&B owner for offering a Haunted Cabin a couple of years ago my partner and I decided to leave the
east coast and move to the Pacific Northwest arriving in this new city we didn't know anyone but I had saved up some good money and was excited so we hopped on a flight and honestly having looked back the idea was to stay in hosts and budget hotels until we could find work and a place to live the truth is that finding a job was a piece of cake only a week after landing we already had jobs but finding a place to stay was another story The search was a real hassle for the apartments we checked
the requirements were quite demanding such as very high credit scores and minimum Income At first we tried more serious sites but after 2 months of jumping from hostile to hostile in MO motel to motel we started to get desperate so we decided to try Airbnb truth be told most of the options we looked at gave a lot to be desired but one day I found an ad that made me suspicious the description said the guy had a big house in a nice neighborhood and was renting a 500t room for $500 a month including utilities it
was suspiciously cheap also his ad looked like a cross between a room rental ad and a letter where he was defending himself against accusations of being a cre guy now if we hadn't been so needy we wouldn't have jokingly considered contacting this guy but at this rate we were out of money so we decided to take a chance and call him on the phone the man sounded quite normal he even suggested we meet in a public place to chat about the room and quoted us at a restaurant near the hostel where we were although we
didn't tell him our location of course he arrived late and was surprised to see us then sat down and started talking non-stop more him than us he talked about about his life how he felt everyone in town was chasing him he introduced himself as an artist and collector repeating that the locals don't understand his passions the funny thing was that he never mentioned to us what exactly it was that he collected only focusing on the fact that the room he was offering was currently occupied by his collection and said that if all went well he
would need help moving it into storage before we could move in in the middle of his talk he suddenly got up and ran off to the bathroom at which point we took the opportunity to discuss the odd situation it was already clear to us that he was probably not a very sane person but the possibility of being left without a place to stay weighed too heavily so we agreed that we should see the place at least to see if everything was as strange as it seemed when he returned to the table he came in sweating
and very nervous but we wouldn't understand why until later then before we could say anything he blurted out I want to show you the apartment now we were stunned we had talked about going to see it but he had beaten us to it so we agreed and I asked him to text me the address and we would arrange to get there by public transportation but the guy insisted that he would take us in his truck since we didn't have a car truth be told we were hesitant to get in even he seemed to realize our
distrust but desperation got the better of us and we were pretty sure he wasn't going to hurt us so we got into the front seat of his rusty old pickup truck my partner was pressed up against the door while I sat uncomfortably close to the driver who kept going on and on about how the city had gone downhill and how the people he once considered friends had left him behind at one point I whispered to my girl to get ready in case we needed to make a run for it but the wind was howling so
loudly that he couldn't hear me one of the windows was broken which added an even stranger air to the vehicle suddenly the guy started talking about how romantic we were and how much he envied our youth the guy talked Non-Stop and went from one topic to another without any context it sounded like a badly tuned radio we finally arrived at his house it was a matter of minutes up to that point he seemed pretty honest and the neighborhood looked decent his house was a large one-story Ranch but it struck me that all the windows had
bars on them and the front door had several locks upon seeing him I felt chills but he noticed and mentioned that his collection was very valuable and he was just protecting it from thieves when he let us in I made sure to hurry through so he wouldn't lock the door behind us as soon as we walked in we noticed three things his art was strange his collection was all over the place and a pungent smell filled the air his art of which he was so proud basically consisted of taking things that looked innocent like dolls
stuffed animals and ceramic figurines and adding dildos and various adult toys to them yes as bizarre and creepy as it sounds one of the most shocking pieces was a ceramic horse whose head had been cut off and replaced with that of a doll he then added a huge clay limb sculpted as if it were the Horn of the supposed unicorn can you imagine his collection also included latex clothing plastic and gas masks the place was so crowded that there was only one path in each room that you could walk through without tripping over his art
or stepping on piles of fetish clothing and other weird stuff I must say that the atmosphere felt increasingly unsettling and a warning alarm was sounding loudly in my mind although I didn't quite know what to do next this guy clearly didn't care about cleanliness the place rre of mold and old Rubber and the carpet looked like it hadn't seen vacuum cleaner since the 1970s as we walked through the kitchen he suddenly declared that he loved cast iron pans because he didn't have to wash them and in that instant we realized that all the countertops were
cluttered with Rusty pans full of burnt food debris that looked decades old I know we should have gotten out of there immediately but we followed him silently for the rest of the tour as he occasionally stopped to show us his favorite artwork repeating that the room was filled with his most beloved things he meant that moving was fun but he wasn't saying it to us he was saying it to his artwork finally he opened the door to the room we wanted to rent and exclaimed voila my girl and I were dumbfounded the room was about
500 square ft but every inch was crammed with hangers all were filled with shiny latex clothing and plastic pants with dildos sewn to the front it was a truly disturbing sight we were trying to keep our composure taking in all the weird stuff in her house fearing a violent reaction from her if it was too obvious that we were horrified however I began to notice that he looked disappointed that we weren't surprised as he expected I think he got a thrill out of surprising people with his odd collection but in this case it clearly wasn't
working out the way he wanted it to we told him that the room seemed spacious enough and that we needed to go back to the hotel to think about it and he showed no great reaction but agreed to take us back however on the way back to the car as we passed a darkened room I noticed how he reached into his pocket pulled something out and threw it through the open door I immediately panicked thinking it might be his car keys so I used the light on my phone to look inside as we walked past
and my God that room was a mess it was full of used condoms and sperm balloons as my partner later called them later we speculated that he might have been you know giving himself affection at the restaurant and filled the condom before taking us home and that was just what he had dumped in that filthy room as we hopped back into his truck we had a long and otherwise comfortable ride back to the restaurant where we met as he rambled on more than ever he passed the same place three times which made us lose our
patience and when he finally stopped at a red light we frantically shouted this is great thanks it was nice meeting you bye and we practically jumped out of the car I was barely able to add his number to my contacts as Mr Creepy pantis the next few days he started texting me asking if we had talked about that place I wanted to be polite so I replied that we had decided not to but appreciated the offer he then responded with you've been graving and said it over and over again like a broken record about 30
times I was left wondering why I was still trying to be polite to him after that but the truth is I didn't want unnecessary conflict so when he finally stopped texting I replied that no his collection was lovely but so large that we didn't dare ask him to move it it took him a couple of days to reply but he took it better than we expected he said yes I really didn't want to move it thank you for understanding then matter of factly he suggested a local burger place to see us again after that I
blocked his number just to be safe better safe than sorry I thought though the experience still left me uneasy but relieved to have escaped that [Music] Madness my name is Martha and right now I'm at the airport waiting for my flight out of this country and truth be told I don't plan on ever going back don't get me wrong Vietnam is a beautiful place I came here because I love the food the culture and I'm always willing to try new things but this trip has been a total disaster for me and my husband and it
all comes down to our Airbnb experience we were only in Vietnam for a few days but we wanted to make the most of our time so we decided to rent an Airbnb instead of staying in a hotel while browsing the app I saw an ad that caught my eye hey Tom come check this out I said to my husband what's up love he replied as I flipped the laptop screen to show him the pictures of this beautiful house it was an old traditional style place that was only being used as an Airbnb it's beautiful but
why is it so cheap he questioned I don't know maybe because it's so old I replied with a shrug in the end I didn't much care why it just looked amazing and was within our budget so we booked the place and soon after I received a message from the owner confirming our reservation the days passed quickly and soon we landed in Vietnam we took a cab to the Airbnb address and when we arrived the house was even more impressive than we imagined the place was huge and boasted a large and beautiful garden upon entering we
were blown away by the interior it was luxurious and smelled wonderful we were greeted by the owner an old man with a strange smile perhaps because his eyes looked a bit wide he didn't speak English very well so I didn't understand much of what he was saying after showing us around the house he said goodbye mumbling something about having to run some errands and as soon as he left Tom turned to me and said so what do you think I think this place is amazing I can't believe we're so lucky I replied yes I want
to see the bedroom again that room was especially beautiful with high ceilings and a huge bed we were both exhausted so we decided to sleep early I settled into bed and in a moment I heard Tom snoring next to me but I wasn't that sleepy so I grabbed a book from the nightstand and started reading it must have been about 30 minutes when I heard a weird noise a scratching like something was crawling across the ceiling I ignored it completely thinking it was an animal but the sound continued finally I decided to get up and
look out the window I saw nothing when I did so so I sighed and went back to bed soon falling asleep however I was awakened again this time by a loud thump as if something fell on the floor below Tom I exclaimed and he startled awake what was that I don't know but I'm going to find out I replied I'm coming with you he said as he got out of bed and reached for his phone to use as a flashlight we were both a little nervous but curiosity won out over fear so together we left
the room ready to face whatever was going on the windows were completely darkened and I couldn't make out anything and the only light there was the bright screen of Tom's phone but there was something about his expression that made me uncomfortable hey love did you update the time on your phone before we got here sure why I replied your phone says it's 8:00 a.m. I frowned as I looked at the screen then looked back towards the window half expecting it to be daylight already and the birds were singing in the bright Sunshine but it was
still dark outside that's weird isn't it maybe the time was adjusted during the night or something my voice trailed off as I realized how long we had been asleep suddenly I turned to the window and tried to open it as I had last night but when I tried I realized it was boarded up from the outside I looked at Tom and saw in his face that he had noticed it too letun try the door maybe they're doing maintenance I suggested we went downstairs and when we got to the door we discovered that it was also
bricked up at that moment I almost forgot about the noise we had heard earlier but suddenly it rang again a loud noise as if something was crawling but this time it wasn't coming from the ceiling it was coming from our old room I lifted the phone towards the stairs Illuminating the darkness and that's when I saw it a pair of huge yellow eyes glowing in the Gloom a long forked tongue flicked out tasting the air and a huge coiled body blocked the staircase it was a snake but a giant one blocking our only Escape my
husband and I were frozen with fear not knowing what to do but suddenly the snake began to descend the stairs slowly approaching us run shouted Tom and we both darted in opposite directions I ran towards the kitchen thinking I might find something to defend myself but as I looked around I noticed that all the knives had disappeared leaving the drawers empty at that moment I heard Tom screams coming from another room help somebody help me without thinking I ran toward his voice feeling my heart pounding in my throat flinging open the door I shown my
light and there on the floor was Tom's motionless body with a snake coiling and squeezing his corpse I wanted to scream to cry to do anything but I was paralyzed my mind went blank it was then that the snake turned to me hissing and showing its tongue finally my body reacted and I ran upstairs to the bedroom I could hear the hissing of the snake getting closer and closer I reached the bedroom and slammed the door shut pushing a chair against it as a barricade at that instant I noticed an attic door in the corner
of the room I saw light a distant light but it was light at last so I ran there not knowing how I had gotten there but I didn't care I just wanted to be alive I finally managed to get out and got into the car we had rented I drove quickly to the police station and as I drove I looked in the rearview mirror it was then that I saw the old man standing in front of his house his face was twisted into a strange smile and he waved at me it was chilling when I
finally got to the police I told them everything that had happened they got in their patrol car and drove to the house but after inspecting they told me they had checked the whole house and there was nothing out of the ordinary so they refused to take any legal action but I know what I saw I came here with my husband and now I am alone the reality hit me hard I knew I was facing something very dark and now I am waiting for my flight to return to my country as soon as possible
