Worst Roommate Ever

Post by _MsJack »

This is a long read, but well worth it:

TL;DR: 60-yo serial squatter tricks people into making hasty roommate agreements (always has a sob story to secure quick move-in), then turns into nightmare roommate from hell.

I read this prior to this thread. I gotta say, your last sentence is a spoiler. It's not clear that's the direction it's going to go in at first.

It's a great piece that genre blends true-crime and pure nightmare fuel.

Jesus. When does the movie come out? If only Robert DeNiro were young enough to reprise his role in Cape Fear.
