Hollywood thrillers give us excitement and suspense. But real life can be even more interesting, scary, and strange than any movie. The events in this collection really happened, showing us that life can surprise us when we least expect it—and that’s what makes it so exciting.
Here is the Story:
A woman in her 60s called 911, very scared, saying she heard footsteps upstairs, even though she lives alone. When the police arrived, her door was unlocked. They found her sitting calmly, not moving or blinking. There were no signs that anyone had broken in. However, one policeman noticed that she was smiling. When he started to talk to her, he realized that the woman didn’t feel scared in her house. She was just very lonely and wanted someone to visit her. She made up this story to get some attention.
What she did was wrong, but the police understood her loneliness and made sure that someone visited her once a week to check on her and keep her company.
