DESCRIPTION:Home is where we feel safest. But what happens when the safety is an illusion, and the danger is already inside? In this episode, we bring you five true stories of home invasions that will make you question every shadow in your home.In 1986, Daniel LaPlante lived inside the walls of the Bowen family's Massachusetts home for six months. He created tunnels behind the washing machine, moved objects, and wrote messages. When Frank Bowen finally opened a closet, he found LaPlante wearing his deceased wife's dress, covered in clown makeup, and wielding a hatchet.In November 2009, pregnant mother Marcela Borges was held hostage with her family for three days. When she realized the captors planned to kill them all, she grabbed a knife, jumped from a second-story window, was shot in the back, and ran to a neighbor's house, saving her family.A Colorado father woke at 3:30 AM to footsteps on the stairs. Realizing a stranger was walking toward his children's rooms, Kevin Root shoved the intruder down the stairs and held him until police arrived.In Perth, Australia, a man wrestled a female intruder for 25 minutes while his wife called for help. The ordeal was caught on security cameras.And a woman recovering from knee surgery woke to feel someone getting into bed beside her. Assuming it was her husband, she didn't react. In the morning, he told her he never came home. The neighbor had been slipping into her bed for months.These are the true stories of those who learned that the most terrifying monsters aren't hiding under the bed—they're already inside the house. Listen if you dare.
