Creepy Freak
My brother was involved in a very creepy incident last night that makes the hair stand up on my arms.
He recently moved into the cute little white Melrose Place looking apartments on campus corner in Norman.
Jenny and I lived next door to one another in those for a stint a long time ago, and despite being itty bitty and a little dingy, they are pretty cool. Very close quarters- there are only like 8 units on the bottom story (2 upstairs at the end): 4 on each side across from one another, separated by a tiny courtyard in between. Basically you can hear what's going on next door through the wall and all but fall into the apartment across the courtyard from your front door.
It's such tight quarters that you can hear the person across from you cough if it's quiet enough outside.
Well, last night Chris goes to leave his apartment to get groceries, when he sees the guy who lives next door to him (which is coincidentally Jenny's old apartment) just standing right in front of the door of the older lady who lives across the courtyard.
Chris said the guy was just standing there, looming around her door, and he got the creep factor vibe. He said it was just weird. So Chris goes to his car, which is parked directly in front of the complex where he can still see, and decides to wait and scope out the situation.
For about 10 minutes, the guy is just standing there, looking in through the screen door into the little window on the main door. So, feeling that something just wasn't right, Chris gets out of his car and goes up to the guy and asks,
"Dude, what are you doing?"
And the guys goes, "I'm just, uh waiting for some people. You know, just waiting around."
"Do you even know who lives here? What's their name?"
And the guy leans over and peers at the name on the mailbox of the apartment and recites the last name of the occupant.
Chris asks again, "What in the hell are you doing just standing out here in front of this door looking inside?"
Anyways, they go back and forth and the guy can't give him a legitimate answer. So Chris goes to his other neighbor's apartment to explain the situation to him, and they stake out the scene for further investigation.
After few minutes, the guy goes into his apartment briefly, then comes back out and returns to the front of the apartment he's been looming around, except this time he's leaned over peering through the window with a weird, creepy smile on his face.
Chris and his friend debate calling the police~ but wait a little longer just to make sure they aren't over reacting.
They watch the guy, and at this point he's been out there for almost an hour, and decide to go ahead and call Johnny Law once they see the guy move and sandwich himself between the screen door and front door of the apartment, his face up against the window of the door, with the same creepy smile on his face, just staring inside.
In summary, the cops come, and after some deliberation and questioning, they come to discover that the guy has been convicted several times already of "Peeping Tom" and burglary.
The woman in the apartment he was peeping in was asleep in her bed, which is right up next to the window the guy was staring into with that creepy smile on his face.
Which means he was watching her sleep! How fucking creepy is that?
The guy got arrested and now Chris and his neighbors are working on a way to get him evicted~ and I don't blame them! Can you imagine waking up and realizing that there is a face in your window watching you sleep?!
