1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Okay, op, these are the scariest stories on. 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 2: Reddit count down to Halloween. The neighbors invited me for dinner. 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 2: All of my survival instincts told me I'm in danger. 4 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: Not a dinner party you want to go to? 5 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 2: No, not very inviting. My next door neighbors are an 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 2: odd bunch. Sure, they have a bunch of top of 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 2: the line furniture vehicles, and everything was honestly quite outdated. 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 2: It looks like everything was old but in between aged 9 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 2: and antique, so they honestly kind of just looked ugly. 10 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 2: But like I said, everything looked really pricey, like expensive, 11 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 2: haying me down space. I say, next door neighbors, but 12 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,319 Speaker 2: they're really a couple miles to my right. We all 13 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: live in an expansive closed community, all with really nice 14 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 2: houses and acres of wilderness separating us. It's honestly quite beautiful, 15 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 2: and if anyone has the money to be able to 16 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 2: live in one of these areas, I would highly recommend it. 17 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: Some real estate advice, Yeah, I love that, as long 18 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 2: as the neighbors aren't quite like these ones. I get 19 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: it they're rich their extent those often go hand in hand, 20 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 2: but these people in general have just always put me 21 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 2: at unease. When my wife and I were invited to 22 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: go to their place for dinner, I wasn'n ecstatic about it, 23 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: but my wife convinced us to go and just check 24 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: the place out. Maybe they were simply misunderstood the invitation 25 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 2: was a literal invitation. When I say outdated, I mean 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 2: really outdated. We had a letter hand delivered to our 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: residents by their butler, who also. 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: Gave me the creeps by their butler. By the butler like. 29 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: This makes me think of like Scooby Doo weird butler 30 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: coming from the manor to like deliver this key mysterious invitation. 31 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 3: I'm almost imagining like a red wax seal. Yeah, yeah, 32 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 3: and you have to break the seal and it's coated 33 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 3: in blood. 34 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: I could definitely see that. We opened it to find 35 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: the invitation beautifully handwritten inside with amazing calligraphy. 36 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: The letter word for word went like. 37 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: This, welcome mister and missus redacted for such a late 38 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: welcoming letter. We seldom have the time for such formalities, 39 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,959 Speaker 2: but found some time for tomorrow. We would be most 40 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: grateful to have you both for dinner over at our 41 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: manor and would love to share our rich, familiar culture 42 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: with you and your wife. Hope to see you soon. Sincerely, 43 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: the redacted. 44 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: If someone calls their home a manner, run. 45 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: Literally the same run exact I thought the same exact thing. 46 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: Something about the letter felt wrong, but when my wife 47 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: shrugged it off, so did I. The day came to 48 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 2: go over to their manner, but of course she came 49 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: down with a stomach bug and couldn't make so now 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 2: I had to go alone. 51 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: Oh don't go into a strange person's home alone. I 52 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: would not have done split up. 53 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 3: Come on, say you. 54 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: Have hockey practice or something. I write there on what 55 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: I supposed was on time, since no time was labeled. 56 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: I got there around four pm and was greeted with 57 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 2: an extremely attractive young man and woman. They were already 58 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,399 Speaker 2: outside of the front door when I showed up, and 59 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 2: something told me they were waiting there for a while, 60 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: Like you just got the feeling they were just standing. 61 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: There, standing there, watching, waiting, very so creepy. 62 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: Everything about these people was flawless but dated. Perfect skin, 63 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: perfect clothes, perfect teeth, perfect hair. It felt like I 64 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 2: took a step backward in time. The only thing that 65 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: truly looked old were their eyes. I worked at a 66 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: nursing home as an adult, and I could recognize old 67 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: eyes anywhere. Walking into their house was truly a blast 68 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: of the past. It felt like I really time traveled, 69 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: except everything was covered in dust from lack of use, 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: except for the kitchen and dining room, which was already 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: set up magnificently. We had small talk in the dusty 72 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: lounge area for a couple of hours before we began 73 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,839 Speaker 2: to eat. Nothing really stemmed from the conversations, but while 74 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: I felt awkward from it, they kept on smiling, but 75 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: not really with me. They smiled at me. 76 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: What does that mean. 77 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 2: I'm just imagining a smile that's just like the transfixed look, 78 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 2: and you're just smiling, like where it goes from warm 79 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: to creepy. 80 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 81 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: When we finally went over to the dining area, we 82 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: passed by a door that was halfway open and faint 83 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: noises could be heard from downstairs. I guess my body 84 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: language showed an interest because the woman announced there was 85 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: nothing to be seen down there, twirled her fingers, and 86 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: the door magically slam shut. I thought I must have 87 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 2: been seeing something, but they kept heading on, so I 88 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: followed every survival instinct inside of me told me to 89 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 2: leave right away, but I wouldn't be telling a story 90 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 2: if I did. We sat down to eat and started 91 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 2: off with some wine. As soon as the first sip 92 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 2: hit my lips, I felt an instant craving to eat. 93 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: They must have noticed, because they sent out butlers with 94 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 2: food to me, well, really only meat. I began to 95 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 2: devour uncontrollably, failing to notice at the time what I 96 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: was eating. They just sat there was eating watching. Yeah, 97 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: so they bring out literally just meat, no other sides, vegetables, fruits, salad, nothing. 98 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 2: I ate about three times what I normally could stomach 99 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: in about half the amount of time it would normally 100 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: take me. 101 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: For a regular meal. 102 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 2: After that, I felt extremely bloated and sick, as one 103 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: normally would after going through such an endeavor of eating. 104 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 2: Then they brought a glass of liquor for me to drink, 105 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 2: saying it's an old family remedy that will make me 106 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: feel better. I'm not the biggest fan of liquor, but 107 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 2: in order to not offend them, I pretended to drink 108 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 2: it anyways. Besides, every cell in my body told me 109 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: not to drink that, and something was wrong. Even the 110 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: whiff of vapor from the drink made me feel unnaturally tired, 111 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: deciding that I needed to purge what I ate immediately, 112 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 2: despite it tasting so good, I feigned stomach issues and 113 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: ask where the nearest restroom is. They told me through 114 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 2: the kitchen and to the left. I get up and 115 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: walk to the kitchen. After I was out of sight, 116 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 2: I walked a little faster, almost breaking into a light jog. 117 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 2: I noticed absolutely no one was in the kitchen right now, 118 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 2: and found it finished. Looking around, I noticed mine and 119 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: my wife's photo laying on one of the counter Their photo, 120 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:28,239 Speaker 2: their photo. 121 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: They had something planned. 122 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 2: Why was it there? 123 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: Why is it there? 124 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 2: Curiosity got the best of me, so I took a 125 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: detour to take a look. I probably should have left 126 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: by now, but I needed to find out why that 127 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 2: photo was there. Before I headed over, something in the 128 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 2: invitation came to mind after seeing a cookbook next to 129 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: the picture. Next to the photo was an old, tattered, 130 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 2: handwritten cookbook already opened to a page. I didn't pay 131 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 2: much attention until I saw a very detailed drawing of 132 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: the human anatomy. There is no title on the page, 133 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 2: but it was the last words on the page that shook. 134 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 3: God. 135 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: Flesh is most potent when victim consumes its own kind. 136 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 2: And then my stomach gurgled. 137 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: He was eating human flesh. 138 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: She was eating human flesh. And potentially, my theory, it's 139 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: a picture of him and the wife. The wife had 140 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: some sort of stomach issue and said she couldn't make it. 141 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 2: Was it potentially the wife that they took for the. 142 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: Hours while they were talking, They they took the wife. 143 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 2: They took the wife. He was chatting with them for 144 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: hours before they ever went to dinner. She had a 145 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 2: stomach bug. Eating their own kind could be interpreted as 146 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: just eating another human. 147 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: Or he ate his wife, or he ate his wife. 148 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: Oh god. And the drink that they gave him was 149 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: his wife's blood. 150 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 2: Maybe not his wife's blood, but basically it was some 151 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 2: sort of chloroform like substance that would have knocked him out, 152 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 2: so that way, like the quote says, after he consumed 153 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: the flesh of someone else, his flesh would be better 154 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: for consumption. 155 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: Oh my god, dude, cannibals are freaking insane. Yeah, all right, 156 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 3: I'm not going to sleep tonight. 157 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, Slash, no sleep.
