13x05: Stalked by a Murderer
Digest
This podcast delves into a collection of unsettling true stories about encounters with strangers, each leaving listeners with a sense of unease and a heightened awareness of potential dangers. The first story recounts a young girl's terrifying experience with a white van that followed her home from school, leaving her feeling deeply unsettled. Another story describes a woman's encounter with a wiry man at a gas station who attempted to open her car door, leaving her feeling uneasy and more vigilant about her safety. The podcast also features stories of encounters in public spaces, such as a woman's frightening experience at a train station in Chicago where a man grabbed her arm and tried to pull her away from her family. The story of two young women on a camping trip in Montana who found a dead deer hung above their tent, its organs ripped out and limbs scattered around, highlights the potential dangers of remote locations. The podcast also explores stories of encounters with vehicles, including a single mother and her daughter's terrifying experience with a dark pickup truck that followed them home from a cancelled flight. The driver turned off their headlights and tailgated them closely, forcing them to seek refuge at the state trooper's headquarters. Finally, the podcast delves into a series of unsettling events that occurred over several years at a farm where a young woman kept her horse. She and her friend experienced strange occurrences, including a mysterious owl, a man lurking in the shadows, and the discovery of rotting flesh in bags. They eventually realized that the person behind these events is a man named Elliott, who was acquitted of murdering his brother-in-law. These stories serve as a reminder of the importance of staying vigilant and reporting suspicious behavior, as well as the potential dangers that can lurk in both familiar and unfamiliar environments.
