Marissa was 23 years old when she matched with who she thought was a 25-year-old guy from town named Luke the two were chatting on Tinder and seemingly hitting it off so they exchanged numbers after texting for a while talking about music and sports the chat shifted to a more sexual tone Marissa was on Tinder looking for casual sex and when this topic came up Luke said he was looking for the same thing after chatting for a while longer Luke suggested Marissa come to his house and see has the place to himself interestingly Luke didn't give an address until after he asked Marissa what area she's from and when she did he gave an address that was conveniently close to her walking distance as a matter of fact before agreeing to come over to Luke's house though she requested they have a phone call First the two had a phone call and Luke sounded like a normal young guy they joked around on the phone for a bit until Marissa was comfortable enough to agree to go over deciding to go early just to pass the house and scope it out first Marissa walked about 10 minutes through the neighborhood until she got to the block it was late at night so a Read More

lot of houses had their lights off and there were no cars out on the road Marissa passed the house and noticed two cars in the driveway and a car parked in front all the lights were out it didn't look like a house with just a guy alone this was already a red flag so she went back down the block and texted him I'm almost there he replied oh you're early almost ready walks slow Marissa was getting bad vibes so she started slowly inching back in the direction of her house at a pace that allowed her to stall a bit longer for a reply from Luke confirming that she was okay to come in but suddenly Marissa heard a car approaching the intersection down the block behind her she turned to see a white van with no headlights on turning onto the street Marissa ran to hide behind the side of the house and she watched as the van parked on the side of the road the van just sat there and nobody got out it was parked a few houses away from the given address then Marissa got a text from Luke saying okay I'm ready let me know when you're on my block I'll come out Marissa turned and started running down the block inconspicuously though making sure to stay close to the house as she passed
True Stories of Hauntings
and not on the sidewalk or close to the street she ran most of the way home and blocked the number also reporting the Tinder profile just to be on the safe side Marissa and her mother went to the address the Luke person gave and the woman who opened the door denied even having any sons Marissa and her mother went to a police station to report this incident just so that the authorities could be aware of it and link any future reports to it as well by the sound of it due to Marissa's cautiousness she narrowly avoided being abducted by the driver of that van this was the Tinder match between a guy named Chaz and who he thought were two girls around his age this is how the conversation went my friend and I think you're really cute I hope your friend is also a girl LOL she is silly well I'm glad to hear that where are you ladies from then they share their locations which aren't far the other profile asks are you busy tonight yes I am I'll be hanging with you twoo yes want to come around 10 yeah where do you live wait actually our parents are both home want to meet at the park we can find a place to hang there I guess we can do that my parents are home too damn what time
should we meet there tell yes okay what are your numbers let's just message on here until we meet damn I I see how it is got to earn your trust yes we're heading over now okay okay Sam I'll probably be there like 1010 okay perfect where exactly in the Parks you want to meet you can meet by the statue on the dirt path it's like a dog walking path no one will be there this late then we could find a better spot from there together okay I looked it up I think I know how to get there I'll message you when I'm there okay okay Chaz then arrives to the destination in the park and he sends a message saying he's here he follows it up with this is kind of creepy are you guys here this was the last message he sent the profile before it unmatched him and then he was left alone in the woods in the park on a dirt path completely void of any people Chaz knew at this point that he had been tricked but he didn't know just yet if he was just pranked or if he had walked into a trap but then he started to hear noises in the woods like the snapping of twigs and leaves on the ground indicating he was being watched he already had his phone out using it as a flashlight to navigate his
way to the agreed Meetup point so at this point he decided to start recording for his own protection this was the footage he captured in this footage you can easily see that as he pointed his light into the woods where he heard another sound it revealed someone in the woods who then started to run out from the trees and chase after Chaz while running Chaz stopped recording to turn off the flashlight then ran into the trees to hide he started recording again when he thought he had lost the person chasing him he kept recording the rest of his way out of the park and back to his car to have video evidence of anything in case of a worst case scenario luckily Chaz made it back to his car and Home in one piece he tried reporting the profile to Tinder just based off the screenshots he took but Tinder got back to him saying they're unable to find any profiles that match the description or pictures Chaz was obviously not wise to enter a suspicious situation like this the other profiles refusal to give their number as well as meeting anyone for the first time in a park by the woods at night
where nobody else would be around are two major red flags that this was some kind of trap he was lucky to have gotten away the girl who submitted this to me wasn't the one to match this profile rather it was her friend Maddie the profile was titled invincibles and it claimed to be some guy or rather a pair of people including this Chelsea person who would pay someone to kick the man in the picture in his groin this is the story in the girl words one of my best friends a girl named Maddie was on Tinder one day when she stumbled upon this account it was supposedly dedicated to finding people to kick a guy in the groin for a payment of between $50 and $100 of course my friend needing money because of the pandemic and such swiped right on him he quickly messaged her back that there were several people involved in this including a girl named Chelsea we're not sure if they were even actually real to this day we live in a small town in Pennsylvania and this account was listed in a couple couple Towns over in Clearfield my friend Maddie was of course a bit skeptical about this so she messaged me so that she could come have some sort of backup
when she went to do this the account stated that they were doing this for a YouTube video and the guy who was being kicked had lost a bed at a bar a couple weekends before I agreed to accompany my friend because I also was a bit skeptical but I had enough confidence that I could protect her if things happen to go south the next day after my friend agreed to meet with the people we set off towards Clearfield the address the account gave us led to a random hotel in Clearfield which already sort of creeped us out the whole setting seemed off and I'd better include that my friend Maddie had never mentioned that she'd be bringing anyone with her we arrived at the hotel and sat for maybe an hour if not a little less waiting for the person to get back to us they ended up saying that they would be a little late and to sit tight after the prolonged waiting the person eventually mentioned that they were back in town instead of meeting at the hotel they suggested that we just come straight to their house instead already I was feeling a little off but I had confidence that I could defend my friend against any harm that may have came her way so we set off to this guy's
house and in under 10 minutes we eventually made it there at first I felt relieved as the address he gave us led to a big normal looking house right next to the main road but upon further investigation there was a creepy looking shed behind the house with an even creepier looking man peering from out the side of the door to the shed my friend Maddie parked in front of the shed and she told me to wait in the car which immediately screamed the worst things to me but I trusted her to read the situation and know what she was doing after all getting paid money to kick some random guy in the nuts it sounded like a dream the guy left his shed looking even creepier than before he was skin and bones with hair hanging past his shoulders he also seemed nervous and Twitchy not at all like the guy in the Tinder profile I heard her ask him hey I brought my friend along just as a precaution is that okay and in that instant I watched his his expression drop which screamed another red flag to me he stuttered out yeah that's fine I guess so I got out of the car and followed her knife in my pocket in a
hurry and we stepped inside the shed to which point I immediately began to regret mine and her decisions up until that point the shed was filthy it was cluttered with random items and boxes with a toilet sitting in the corner the guy who I quickly realized must be an addict by the way he was acting very nervous and Twitchy was now standing solemnly in the corner setting up his laptop to record this event we made some very awkward small talk as he was doing this at which point I noticed something else that bothered me this random guy had Snapchat installed on his computer which is what his friend Chelsea was messaging us from I could just be paranoid but something about this told me that he was actually Chelsea and he needed another device to Snapchat her on to make it seem like he was someone else after he set it up to record he seemed angry and tense as if he didn't actually think he was going to get kicked in the groin that day he turned around and my friend went about her business with him and promptly after he asked in a shallow voice so what are you guys doing tonight do you guys smoke referring to weed we both quickly replied no and that we had other things going on despite the fact
that we both do smoke Maddie quickly collected the cash from him and we left now this might not all seem off to a regular person but I can't help but feel like if I wasn't there then something bad would have happened after we left my friend had mentioned that before we got there the Chelsea person had offered to rent a hotel room and buy her Pizza I don't like to think about what would have happened if I wasn't there but deep down I know that something way more malicious had been planned based off the girls recounting of this event it's safe to assume that the man in the picture wasn't the same guy that they met in the shed and that this Chelsea person didn't exist Maddie and her friend were smart to go into the situation together as there's always more safety in numbers this last one is is another example of why you can never be too careful with online dating this was submitted by Jeremy and this was his Tinder match he matched with a girl named Mia who was in the same high school class as him their conversation went as follows hey long time no see I know hey how have you been not bad and you I've been good just working a crap
ton you still talking to anyone from high school no not really I was happy for high school to be over same it's funny we only ever really spoke a few times in school yeah I know maybe we should make up for lost time maybe we should do you have a snap from here Jeremy gives Mia his snap and they continue their conversation there Jeremy didn't take any screenshots from the snap conversation but basically from there they continued to talk about life After High School then they escalated to talking about linking up somewhere and chatting in person they agreed to meet in a nearby parking lot behind a strip mall where nobody goes at night Jeremy was ready to go basically right away not needing much time to get ready Mia on the other hand said she wouldn't be able to get there for another hour and a half at least she claimed she was with friends and couldn't just ditch them so they set up a Meetup time for 12 behind the strip mall it took Jeremy only 5 minutes to get there as the lot is in the same town that the two live he sat there in his car waiting for her for about 20 minutes receiving apologies for being late every few minutes on Snapchat
eventually headlights appeared from around the corner and approached slowly then stopped not tooo far from Jeremy's car Mia snapped him a picture of his car saying I think I see you so Jeremy stepped out from his car he then realized the car looked to be a small Honda or Hyundai when in reality the car that was posted all over Mia as Instagram was a Jeep Cherokee immediately Jeremy went back into his car and went to DM Mia on Instagram meanwhile the car outside was honking at Jeremy he opened snap and messaged her hey step out from your car and let me see you first second they opened it took half a minute to reply then said I don't want to it's so cold out what's wrong at this point Jeremy knew something was off so he got in his car and started driving home but the car was following him honking the horn Jeremy decided to get on the highway at which point the car behind him tailed off and disappeared Jeremy pulled to the side of the road to block the Snapchat account but they had already beaten him to it he went home and by then he had gotten a DM back from the actual Mia this is how their conversation went Jeremy opened with this hey this may sound really really
weird but did I match you on Tinder she says hi know why Jesus long story I matched someone catfishing as you and we talked for a while about high school I really thought it was you I met up with a person running the account in a parking lot but it was some random car not your Jeep so I drove away then he sent screenshots of the conversation on August 7th 2014 warina Wright and Gable tosy matched on Tinder Gable wasn't her usual type looking like a man who spends way too much time on his appearance but he reminded her of Sam Winchester a character in Supernatural one of her favorite TV shows Gable opened with a runchy and aggressively forward message saying you look delicious I want to do dirty things to you to which warina responds does that usually work Gable then sends can you be a freak in the sheets to which she says probably not depends Gable says what does it depend on and warina responds what I've had to drink lol Gable keeps the conversation sexual by replying Let's Get Drunk Together I'm a porn star after a few drinks warina gives Gable her number after the two exchange a few more messages and a week later they meet
for the first time in the cavil mall they spent the night together heavily drinking and CCTV footage from multiple establishments showed them meeting walking into a nearby beer garden then purchasing a six-pack of beer at a nearby bottle shop and after their night out together they ended up returning to the Avalon Apartments where Gable lived alone on the 14th floor six images taken by Gable that night show the couple apparently laughing and smiling in the apartment and on the balcony from which warino would plunge to her death only hours later for whatever reason Gable recorded the audio of his entire night with warina which included the entire confrontation the two would have towards the end of the night which was later played during Gable's trial it was later found out that Gable had a weird habit of recording his entire dates with multiple women at some point after the two had sex warina can be heard becoming increasingly erratic and aggressive toward towards him however as the night progresses Gable can be heard in the recording refusing to let her leave and warina terrified screams to let her go home are silenced when he locks her
outside on the balcony during this recording Gable can allegedly be heard choking out warina before locking her outside call them with what I thought you lost your phone exactly so how are you going to call anyone without your phone stole my phone I didn't touch your goddamn phone you guys stole my I should never that's why I'm calling him I should have never given you so much to drink I thought we were going to have fun where's my where's your phone where is my what's your phone number oh going 100 Psy you I don't deserve this all right I'm nice guy yeah nice guy with little money must be on the balcony well I have shitloads of money why is my money stop just calm down please you I'm not coming down because you had too much to drink all right I'm not coming down because I've had so much to drink and I have shitloads of money in New Zealand it's not funny you know calm down please do you know how I here cuz no one else has do

m all [Applause] on let me go home me I would but You' been it's apparent that both Gable and warina were very drunk with warina sounding a lot drunker than Gable slurring all of her words warina apparently thought the only way to escape would be attempting to climb down the building which resulted in her falling from the balcony to her death Gable who was 28 at the time was arrested for her death but was ultimately acquitted of all charges the prosecution claimed that Gable locked Arina on his balcony following a heated argument and when she tried to escape presumably to a lower floor She plummeted to her death Gable's defense team said warina was extremely intoxicated and that she had been acting irrationally before her tragic fall prosecutors argued that Gable had choked warina trapped her and made her so afraid that she felt she had no choice but to escape at whatever cost an audio recording of Gable's phone call with his father right after the incident was eventually released and in it Gable is heard telling his father that things had become violent between the pair and that
he locked her on his balcony but insisted that he did not push her H dad um I might have a bit of a situation I met up with a girl for a date tonight and um she started getting really aggressive like it was all right at first and like we you know had sex in bed and then after that like she kept drinking and we're both drinking and she like I think she thought it was like a joke or something but she kept like beating me up and whatever like I've been walking around in there like milon cups around my building I'm I don't know what to do I didn't push her or anything I like I just I'm like just walking around the area and there's like a million cops around the area it's really up I don't know what to do like I'm I'm just um I'm walking around the area and I just see meleon cups around Avon this is really really up what does this keep happening to me like I I swear to God I I didn't push her or anything I just chucked her out on the balcony and
shut the door cuz she was baiting me up according to a downstairs neighbor loud arguments with women could be heard quite often from Gable's apartment hinting that this kind of thing was a regular occurrence with him many people do believe that Gable murdered warina and there was public outrage when Gable was acquitted the process of going through a divorce is usually not a pleasant one and emotions are often very mixed for some a divorce can be a horrible time in one's life full of grief and sorrow but for others it can be a hopeful time a fresh start for 39-year-old Joy pipil a nurse from Sydney Australia her recent divorce with ex-husband Alexander Villa Luna was going to be a new beginning Joy posted on Facebook new year new beginnings accompanied by a smiling photo of herself she had since posted on her Facebook of flowers sent by secret admirers and birthday cards and gifts from her three children who called her the best mother there can be and an independent mother and woman in March 2016 Joy was using Tinder to find a date Joy is the mother of four she grew up in the Philippines and then moved to Auckland New Zealand to train to be a

began to run from the restaurant and at first Alexander went after her but he seemed to give up or change his mind and head back to the restaurant where he sat by Keith's now dead body and waited for the police to arrive he surrendered without putting up a fight to the arresting officer and he admitted that he attacked Keith because he was having dinner with his ex-wife okay you're more than welc thank you by Joy was taken to the hospital and while she sustained injuries she survived the attack Alexander and joy had met 9 years earlier when they were both training to be a nurse in Auckland they were both from the Philippines Joy claimed that Alexander was abusive from the start of their relationship he wouldn't let her have friends and wouldn't let her leave the house often Joy already had three children from a previous relationship in 2011 she had one son with Alexander 2 years before Keith was murdered Joy left Alexander and got a restraining order against him in response to this he told that he would kill her if she ever started dating
another man but he also said at a later time he would spare her life because of their son in September of 2017 Alexander pleaded guilty to murder when given the chance to apologize Alexander said it was difficult to say he was sorry because he was still angry about what happened to him it also turned out that he told the probation and parole service that Joy blamed herself for the problems in their relationship so according to him she would have been happy to have been killed by him Alexander also claimed claimed he attacked Keith in self-defense however CCTV footage clearly showed that he was the aggressor the judge said the most heinous part was when he attacked Keith while he was already on the floor bleeding to death in October of 2017 Alexander was sentenced to 40 years in prison and he'd have to serve at least 30 years before he could apply for parole he'll be able to apply for parole on March 30th 2046 when he's 74 years old on the morning of October 26th 2018 21-year-old Grace main drove from her Essex County home to Heathrow Airport in London where she boarded her flight to Peru she spent the next 10 days traveling from Island to Island before
heading on her way to Auckland New Zealand where she would arrive on November 30th 2 days before her 22nd birthday Grace was staying at a hostel where she made friends with some of the other tourists and Backpackers Grace was known for being an outgoing social butterfly she spent the rest of the night on the 30th taking it relatively easy and decided to start swiping on Tinder looking to meet someone maybe make some local friends while she visited she swiped until she connected with somebody named Jesse and the two began to chat Grace and Jesse made plans to go on a date the following day and so on December 1st 2018 Grace's bunk mates watched as Grace got ready and left the hostel to head to her date with Jesse a few hours went by and at some point in the evening grace sent a message to a friend back home stating that the date was going really well and she felt a connection with Jesse however it wasn't long after this message that Grace's phone and social media activity went silent the next day was her birthday and many of Grace's family and friends went on to send Grace happy birthday wishes but she never replied to any of them and as the days went on everybody became
increasingly concerned and so on December 5th 2018 Grace's family reported her missing to Auckland law enforcement they clarified their concern by pointing out that Grace was actually carrying two cell phones while she traveled just in case there was ever an issue with one of them so that way she would still be able to stay in touch both of Grace's cell phones had been going directly to voicemail as of December 2nd Grace's father traveled to New Zealand to do some searching of his own CCTV footage caught Grace leaving her Hostel at exactly 5:37 p. m. she then walked to a bar and casino known as Sky City which was fairly close to her hostel and she waited there for a few moments until she's seen meeting up with and hugging Jesse the two of them then went into Sky City for approximately 90es minutes while they had some drinks together and things appeared to be going really well and the two appeared to be hitting it off they continued their date onto the next bar known as Mexican Cafe they had a few more drinks at the Mexican cafe and then they continued on again to another bar known as the blue
stone room while at the Blue Stone room things appeared to become more intimate between the two they can be seen kissing multiple times before Jesse made a quick trip to the bathroom this is the exact moment that Grace messaged her friend back home that she was having a really good time with her date Jesse then returned and the two eventually left the bar at 9:40 p. m. the two are seen holding hands and walking towards a building known as the city life hotel where Jesse rented an apartment the two can be seen entering the elevator of the building and exiting on the floor of Jess's apartment this is the last moment that Grace was seen alive the next morning on December 2nd Jesse is then seen entering the elevator alone and exiting his apartment building he's then seen purchasing a handful of cleaning supplies as well as a new large suitcase he places the new purchases inside his apartment and then he leaves the apartment again he then jumps in a taxi and gets a ride to a local car rental facility where he rents a vehicle and heads to another bar in the area to meet up with a second Tinder date the
day after murdering his previous Tinder date this date became uncomfortable very quickly and she decided to end things because she found him really creepy after he had been talking about the best places to hide a dead body when the date was over Jesse stopped by the front desk of his apartment building and asked if he could borrow a rug doctor carpet steam cleaning machine he brought it up to his apartment and spent a couple hours in there before appearing on camera again he's then seen bringing a hotel luggage cart up to his room and shortly after reappearing in the elevator with the luggage cart loaded with his new suitcase and many other small suitcases he then brings the luggage cart down to his rented vehicle and loads everything inside the next morning at around 7:00 a. m. on December 3rd Jesse then went to a nearby store and purchased a brand new shovel he then returned to his apartment building just after 9:00 a. m. he then stopped by a random trash can and tossed out some items and then drove to a dry cleaning
