00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:08.880
All right, I got the next story. This is called

2
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:12.599
Walmart Stalker. I guess it goes along with the theme

3
00:00:12.640 --> 00:00:16.079
that we've set tonight, which is extremely creepy. For a

4
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:18.879
bit of context, I'm a twenty two year old female,

5
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:21.399
five foot two and about one hundred and twenty five pounds.

6
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.679
My mother is forty five five foot nothing. It would

7
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:27.320
blow over in the wind. We both look much younger

8
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:30.679
than our actual ages, and due to having small statures,

9
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:33.560
we tend to have run ins.

10
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:35.600
With creeps because it tends to attract creeps.

11
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:38.320
I tend to carry a small arsenal on me at

12
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:42.200
all times, pepper spray, taser, Swiss arma knife, and etc.

13
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:45.439
I tend to be pretty confident that I can handle myself.

14
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:48.679
That's what I'm trying to say. Don't judge because we

15
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:50.759
live at a big city and I'm a small girl.

16
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.079
This particular night was the worst we've experienced with creepers

17
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:57.079
so far. My mother and I were grocery shopping at

18
00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.600
our usual Walmart. It was later on in the day,

19
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.960
around seven pm, something we tried to avoid because, as

20
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:05.359
we said before, we have a running with creepers. We

21
00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:08.120
tend to We just pulled into the parking lot and

22
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:12.239
began our trick. Inside, we spotted five young men older

23
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:16.200
than myself was still young, standing outside the store laughing.

24
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:17.319
Near the front doors.

25
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:19.840
I pay it no mind when they glance at me

26
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.000
and my mom, and when we walk inside to grab

27
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:26.640
the carts, the men all head inside now and I

28
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:30.319
shrug it off, but keep a mental note of their faces.

29
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:34.359
I tend to be on the paranoid side. We head inside,

30
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:37.359
moving straight for the grocery section. As we shop, I

31
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:39.560
keep noticing two or three of the five men are

32
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:42.519
in each aisle that we go to. Alarm bells started

33
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:45.719
to go off, but I pushed the paranoia aside and

34
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:48.719
just keep my head high as we walk. Most of

35
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:53.000
the time, confidence puts the creepers off. I make sure

36
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:56.719
to go down a few random aisles to test. Sure enough,

37
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.760
my test prove positive, as they were always there in

38
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:00.640
those too.

39
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:01.280
Well.

40
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:03.799
My mom starts to notice as well the more aisles

41
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:06.959
we go down, and her hand squeezes mine and a

42
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:09.919
warning is she shoots one of the men a very

43
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:13.919
bad glare. We stop in the cereal aisle. She tended

44
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:16.560
to still be mama bear, despite that I'm a grown woman.

45
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:21.599
The guy who's now moved on about two feet from

46
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:25.199
our cart, just glances over and smirks at her. He's tall, lanky,

47
00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:28.319
with short, dark hair partially hidden under a ball cap

48
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:32.520
and a pointed rat like face. Mom just narrows her

49
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:36.919
eyes unnerved at this point as a response, and she

50
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:39.360
looks over at me and shoots me an unsure glance.

51
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:43.080
I shrug this off before moving to grab a box

52
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.159
off the shelf a little whiles away. The hair on

53
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:47.599
the back of my neck at this point begins to

54
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:50.199
suddenly stand up as I turn around, and I see

55
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:53.000
yet another guy has walked up another one of the guys.

56
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.199
This one is blonde, shaggy, oily hair hanging on from

57
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:59.960
his chin, with his hands tucked in a gray reflect

58
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:02.159
material hoodie look.

59
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:03.199
Like a punisher hoodie.

60
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.439
He's staring up at the boxes, but a smirk is

61
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:09.120
on his face, and he directly stands in my path,

62
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:12.520
right in front of me. My stomach flips. I grip

63
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.759
my teeth as I snap excuse me. I try to

64
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.360
go around him, but he just moves again, right back

65
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:21.280
into my path. I glare at him now, trying to

66
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.120
communicate with him with my facial expression that I'm not

67
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:27.479
finding his antics funny, and my mom seems to notice this,

68
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:31.199
comes to my rescue and pushes the cart directly between

69
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:33.840
the two of us, the man and I, and she

70
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.719
says to me ready, I nod, and he takes the

71
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:39.520
hint to move on, now, smiling with yellow teeth as

72
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:43.240
he nods to us. Mom only glares, grabbing my arm

73
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:46.120
and hustling us to another aisle. Again and again, we

74
00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:48.719
run into these guys, and once we finish shopping, I'm

75
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:51.240
afraid they might try to follow us outside, so we

76
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:54.759
began roaming all over the store, taking different routes and aisles.

77
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.479
We seem to lose them after a while, and we

78
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:01.280
both feel relaxed, figuring they finally gave up. We head

79
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:03.840
to the check out our Walmart having a self checkout

80
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:05.599
line made for grocery trips, I mean.

81
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:07.039
We start checking ourselves out.

82
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:10.439
Halfway through unloading our items. I get that hair standing

83
00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:13.560
up feeling again as I turn and I noticed at

84
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:15.199
the land to the right of us. As you guess,

85
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.279
it's the same five guys, this time all of them.

86
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:21.879
My stomach drops, eyes moving to my mom, who stares

87
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:24.959
at them with white eyes and her eyebrows raised, trying

88
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.800
to shake it off. We take our sweet time ringing

89
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:31.079
things up. We figure, seeing as the guys had no

90
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:32.560
more than five.

91
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:34.360
To ten items between them and.

92
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:37.199
We have a full cart, they would surely move faster

93
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:37.639
than us.

94
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:38.399
Wrong.

95
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:41.560
It seems no one else had decided to check out

96
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:43.240
in our lanth so they could go as slow as

97
00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:46.480
they wanted, and oh boy did they. For the next

98
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:49.759
ten what felt like at least ten minutes, they just

99
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:51.480
sat there and watched us that we were bringing our

100
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:53.800
groceries up, and every now and then they would ring

101
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.759
a random item up. My mom grabs my arm and

102
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:59.199
we share a look. I shake my head, starting to

103
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:01.759
get freaked out as my mom, starting to panic, grabs

104
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:04.959
her phone and calls my dad and her state of panic. However,

105
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.120
she turns and wonders a few feet away.

106
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:10.879
Not her best moment, she admits. And when I.

107
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:13.560
Turn to bring out the last few items, the all

108
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.240
cap guy is standing right there by me. At this point,

109
00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:20.079
we stare at each other. He had a gross stare

110
00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:21.920
on his face with messed up teeth. I dropped the

111
00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:23.759
chicken in the bag before reaching out the last item,

112
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.399
ringing it up. He's still partially glaring at me, but

113
00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:28.839
I'm just remanding with my eyesight down to the car.

114
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:31.800
At this point, Mom, now off the phone, hurries back

115
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.319
over only to see the ball cap guy standing there

116
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:37.560
while the other four sit on the bench located three

117
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:41.439
feet away, all watching us. Ball Cap guy simply takes

118
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.560
out the empty gatorade bottle he's been holding and chucks

119
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:47.800
it into the trash canned by the register, which broke

120
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:50.319
our eye contact before he goes to sit back down

121
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:51.079
with all his friends.

122
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:54.360
Keep in mind, they had a trash can right by.

123
00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:57.560
Their register, but made it known to throw it clearer

124
00:05:57.639 --> 00:06:00.279
to ours. Mom and I, not knowing what to do,

125
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.399
start fiddling around, hoping they'd be impatient and leave.

126
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:04.120
Nope.

127
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.560
As we continue at this point to pay and get

128
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:09.199
our receipt, there still there. So Mom grabs my arm

129
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:12.120
and steers me towards customer service, telling them my dad

130
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:15.959
told us to have security walk us out. The guys

131
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:19.120
move and walk out once we head over there, and

132
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.240
I feel relieved they finally left. The lady at customer

133
00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:25.759
service where we're amazing and very understanding and stood with

134
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:30.000
us the entire time waiting for security. A big man

135
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:33.439
with a calm and confident PERSONA came over to take

136
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:37.360
descriptions and said he reviewed the cameras he checked the doorways.

137
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.120
When he came back, he told us, as we were

138
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:41.560
staying in customer service that he found five men matching

139
00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:43.639
their descriptions hanging out around the front door as if

140
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.279
they were waiting for something. He said, the minute they

141
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.519
saw him, they took off, and he promised to walk

142
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.240
us to our car and let the officer outside know

143
00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:55.920
what was going on. We thanked him and the ladies

144
00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:57.519
and we thankfully made it to our car with no

145
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:01.040
problems and haven't seen those men again. So those creepy

146
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:04.000
ass guys who stalked us at Walmart, I just hope

147
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:05.560
we never ever see them again.

148
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:11.000
There is some serious douche baggy behavior on there. A

149
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:12.519
bunch of creeps.

150
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:15.639
Yeah, it definitely seems to be very blatant, just trying

151
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:17.720
to it kind of seems to just literally trying to

152
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:19.000
creep them out, mess with them.

153
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:22.360
It does seem like that. I mean, maybe they had

154
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:27.000
worse intentions, but almost seems like they were just being it. Yeah,

155
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:30.360
a bunch of ass hats and just trying to gross

156
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.199
them out and creep them out. They could be up

157
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:35.040
to worse. I mean more likely they could, man, and

158
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:37.720
you know, it was a good thing that they got

159
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.120
security to walk them out. It's weird that like half

160
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:44.480
of our more than half of our stories have been

161
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:48.560
in like a parking lot of some sort of major place.

162
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:52.519
Well I brought this up, somebody said, it's very unnervous situation.

163
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:52.800
Yeah.

164
00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:54.279
I couldn't even read it. It's so unnerving.

165
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:57.519
But everybody has a local Walmart. I feel like, like

166
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:59.079
every time I go to Walmart, I feel like I

167
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:02.759
see some odd people that could meet this description.

168
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:05.199
Especially back when it used to be twenty four hours. Yeah,

169
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:05.720
they had nothing.

170
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:07.519
That's twenty It's not twenty four hours anymore. Yeah, you

171
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:10.120
definitely could. They said it was what seven pm. Yeah,

172
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:11.759
you're right, the people late at night.

173
00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:13.040
Yeah, I don't know.

174
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.920
I could feel for this story. That's why I shared it. It

175
00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:16.000
was definitely a creepy one.

176
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:18.920
It's very creepy because this is supposed to happen at

177
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:21.839
any Walmart in the country. It could happen anywhere.

178
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:25.839
I don't know the whole timeline because it you know what,

179
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:28.519
it seemed like a very long time, like they're literally

180
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:30.920
trying to buy time going around the store, and these

181
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.480
guys are still in every aisle making sure they stand

182
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:36.559
close to them, just doing very creepy stuff.

183
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:40.759
Yeah, you know, you got those people used to hang

184
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:43.519
out there all night long doing weird stuff.

185
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:45.080
And so yeah, people used to hang out in the

186
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:47.240
parking lot all the time at these Walmarts.

187
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:53.120
So yeah, that's definitely just douche baggy behavior and really gross.

188
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:57.080
And you think they had big trucks. I guarantee, you

189
00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:02.600
guarantee it. We've got to get some heat on that way. Yeah,

190
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:04.799
everyone's gonna get canceled sometime.

191
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:06.240
Yeah, that might do it.

192
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:06.799
That might.

193
00:09:08.600 --> 00:09:09.639
Well, I see what they say.

194
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.320
People are saying, all guys know how creepy moments like

195
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.000
this are. They tried to avoid them. The ones who

196
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:17.240
don't are very creepy.

197
00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:17.919
Yeah.

198
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:20.799
I think as a man or as a person, even

199
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.320
you often realize I could come across really strange.

200
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:27.559
Oh, it's acting the worst. It's the worst when you

201
00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:31.440
accidentally keep bumping into somebody at Walmart or something or

202
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:34.399
someplace like that. It's like, I'm not stalking you. I

203
00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:37.840
just have to get this too. But it always comes

204
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:39.720
across weird. And even if you don't want it to

205
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:42.559
be or like I feel weird out running into people

206
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:44.440
over over again. I'm just like, I don't want to

207
00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:47.399
see this first again. I'm gonna look like a creeper. Yeah,

208
00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:48.080
I do that now.

209
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:51.000
I still can't avoid sometimes having to go somewhere.

210
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:56.039
I guess I go to Walmart once a year now,

211
00:09:57.519 --> 00:10:01.600
it is ever since It's a heart became a thing. Yeah,

212
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:04.919
I got addicted to that and I alway use that now.

213
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:08.200
I think the thing I can really picture here is

214
00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:10.480
it really stands out to me is this checkout, Like

215
00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:13.000
how long they're these guys are taking to check out,

216
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.960
like no items, yeah, and you're not gonna get okay.

217
00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:20.159
So like, once you hit a certain time at Walmart,

218
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:24.000
there's like nobody around that's going to help you. Yeah,

219
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.320
or even if there's also no scenario where there's so

220
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:29.240
many people around, nobody's gonna help you. But if you

221
00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:30.799
hit a certain time, I could see what they're saying.

222
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:32.120
I don't know how big their talent is. I don't

223
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:34.000
remember what they said, but you're just gonna be left

224
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:37.000
hanging to fend for yourself. So it was actually she

225
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:39.200
did call her husband, but it was a good idea

226
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.519
to go to that self, that customer service.

227
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:45.039
Yeah, those that's definitely like the time you need.

228
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:46.480
It, because what would happen if they just would have

229
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:49.240
went out the door, like kept going, You know, it.

230
00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:51.240
Could have been really bad, or it could just been

231
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:54.919
them creeping on some more parassing them always to a car,

232
00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:58.080
or it could have gone really really bad. This is

233
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:00.799
definitely their best decision ever was to go to that

234
00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:01.799
customer service.

235
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:04.399
Yeah, sounded like they had some helpful security, and it

236
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.320
sounds like you ended up having cops outside. You're reading

237
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.080
the story, but I think the point God came across Walmart.

238
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:13.159
Walmart is very creepy and scary.

239
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:14.240
It is.

240
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:23.320
Jeff Townsend media sees you good night, and the question

241
00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:24.320

242
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:25.879
Will you be back?

243
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:28.440
Are you gonna come back?

244
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.320
Will you be back? Are you coming back
