Well, the 7 things you’re about to read about did happen to people in real life, and they’re so disturbing they could easily be plot lines for horror films.

“My ex-neighbor had her daughter killed by her husband so he could fund the filming of a horror movie.”
“He had a guy wait in his garage and killed his wife when he got home. The point was for insurance money that would fund a horror film they were making.”
“From personal experience: Buddy of mine and I were hanging at his family condo up in the Ozarks. Throughout the day, we kept hearing bumps, footsteps, and scratching up in the attic. We thought it was rodents, so we checked it out.”
“No rodents. Instead, we found a disheveled elderly woman up there. Turns out 2 days before we arrived, our next door neighbor locked his wife in his attic. She managed to tear and claw through to our attic, and she couldn’t have been any younger than 70.”
“How she did that, and without food or water was something incredible, but my god that was a horrifying sight to see in one’s attic. Not to mention her husband’s actions.”

“There was a bus stop by my jr. High where I would catch the bus to go home. In the house 20 feet away, there was a man kept in a garage being tortured and eventually murdered. The owner of the house used to sit on the front steps and wave to us as we walked by.”
“I only found out because years later I saw a documentary of the case. Blew my mind.”
“Early 80s I was visiting my cousin in Cincinnati. We played with the neighborhood kids all summer. The week I was leaving the family that lived two houses down from my cousin, the husband came home from work and killed his family with an ax. There were 4 kids, his wife and he took himself out with a shotgun.”
“There was a family a few towns away from mine that was caught abusing a little boy that had never seen the light of day. I do not remember all of the details completely as it’s been decades since this happened.”
“And I’ve searched for news articles and have never been able to find them. I think it happened far back enough to be print only. Before the turn of the century (mid-80s).”
“I have one friend who lived in the community and said it was the most horrific event she’s ever heard of. She went to elementary with the girl. It was a small town so it rocked the community pretty bad.”
“It was mom, grandma, a daughter, and the boy. Apparently, mom and grandma hated men so bad that they felt the need to take it out in this little boy. The young girl went to school and apparently seemed as normal as any other school kid.”
“When they found him, he was duct-taped from head to toe, with a mouth and eye holes…He had burns up and down his body from having been in contact with his own waste.”
“He had other burns as well that were from lighters or matches. Bruises up and down his body, severely malnourished, and had the mentality of a 3-year-old. I believe he was 9 when they found him. There was a rumor that it took weeks to get all of the duct tape off because it had melded with his skin.”
“I can’t remember how they were caught, but I believe it had something to do with the little girl saying something at school.”
“The mom and grandma were both convicted and sentenced to life. The girl went into foster care and no one in the community ever knew where. The boy was put in a care facility at an unknown location as well.”
“I still get sick whenever I think about it.”
“I used to be a fairly prolific member of a very well-known internet forum. A fellow member, likewise fairly prolific, had recently watched his wife die very, very slowly from a chronic illness; like, it took two years when they were both told it would be over in months.”
“A year after his wife passed, he met somebody else, and we were all overjoyed for him. We watched from afar as he fell in love, got married, and took the trip of a lifetime around the world with her, frequently posting photos of the beautiful sights and views that they were seeing together.”
“Except they weren’t. He’d met her, married her within six months, then brutally murdered her after a week of marriage, dismembered her corpse, and burned her body in the furnace of her own home.”
“She was devoutly Jewish, so he had literally desecrated her corpse. He then took all of her savings/inheritance and went on a trip around the world, even going as far as to log into her email account and send her parents emails “from their daughter” FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS to allay their suspicion at a severe lack of phone calls.”
“Police found an email from him to her, unsent, written after he had murdered her. “It said I had planned for it to be quick… I never expected you to be so durable.”
“An adult man would dress up in a suit and tie to look his best for my mom who was 13 at the time and my grandmother would encourage him until he started calling in the middle of the night and that got annoying so then she told him to leave her alone.”
“One winter day my mom was walking uptown to go skating and he shot her (luckily only in the arm she survived and had to do physical therapy and still has problems with her arm) one of those if he can’t have her nobody can situation.”
“This happened in a small rural town so the guys in town loaded up their guns and literally hunted him through the woods like you would a deer and held him at gunpoint until the police got there many conversations about civic justice were had.”
“He went to jail but for released not long after when he got home he placed one more call to my mother and left an apology note to his father then laid under a car and kicked the jack from under it and crushed himself to death.”
