That last one hit me hard. Reopened a lot of old wounds from my childhood. I really, really feel for that family, man. I grew up on the West side of Chicago, and you were never really safe walking around the block, at times, not even familiar ones. Especially when gangs were at war. It got so bad, that parents issued a curfew for us shorties: when those street lights came on, we had to stop whatever we were doing and take our little butts back home. Even gang members who knew our families would take away our basketball and yell at us to go inside. We lost a lot of people during those times, most of whom had nothing to do with that life. If a gang or one of their sub-sets have never seen you before, you were a threat. If you were White and suspected to be a narc, you were a threat. And lastly (speaking from personal experience), if you belonged to a certain ethnic group (Black, Latino, Asian, etc), gangsters automatically assumed you were an op (one who belongs to an opposing or enemy gang), thus making you a threat in their eyes. This is a reality for just about every *hood* in America.

[@jessicalynn6285]

Pazuzu is 100% real, but this story seems like it was created by someone after watching the story of Pazuzu. He highlights some of the things seen in the walkthrough of that house like the writing on the bathroom door and the tank full of snakes. Plus how Pazuzu would joke about the smell of the bodies in the basement. That house was not in an isolated area, so it's odd that he would have ended up at that house needing directions, as opposed to a gas station or something. And little things stick out here and there that seem like this is not a genuine story about a guy getting lost and ending up at Pazuzu's house, but rather made up by someone as a creepy story about how they escaped Pazuzu.

I reside about 30 mins from where the one story took place in Clemmons, North Carolina & I remember hearing about when that house got busted and all of the horrible things that were found. As many horrifying things as they found, I’m sure there’s much much more that unfortunately went on there that will never be discovered. There’s a special place in hell for people like this & my 💚 & prayers go out to the families of the people discovered that had been brutally murdered and buried on the property. From my understanding, this house had neighbors fairly close to it so it wasn’t in a rural or remote area off by itself so I’ll never understand why authorities weren’t called by surrounding neighbors or maybe they were & the authorities should carry some of the blame for their incompetence, idk & it’s been so long that I can’t remember details but either way, it’s always better to be safe than sorry so if you ever see something that just doesn’t settle right with you, please don’t hesitate to report it immediately, afterall you could be the only lifeline a person has between life and death. Stay safe everyone and very vigilant of your surroundings bc they’re are some true evil psychopaths out there roaming around. 💚💙🤗😇💪🏼🇺🇸🌎

Please refrain from putting words into the mouths of other’s because it’s simply downright rude and distasteful. This psychos death count most definitely would’ve been lower had he been caught sooner & since our local news first reported on this story years ago, it was told that the house was unlivable due to the obvious filth inside and surrounding it. It was also reported that he had tortured animals and strung them up in several trees around his yard, also reported that their was a constant party of people who showed no regard for making noise by playing their music loudly throughout the night, carrying on with their chaotic commotion all throughout the nighttime hours and into the following day so I stated the obvious in my comment, I stated that I couldn’t understand how this could’ve went on unnoticed for so long so I’m scratching my head trying to figure out how you took that & then turned and twisted it into a fabrication. I highly recommend actually taking the time to read people’s comments thoroughly before jumping to attack them instead of biting at the bits with overwhelming eagerness just to start unnecessary drama with the first unlucky person that you happen to come across. Life’s too short to be so hateful and quick to assume & lord knows, there’s enough negativity out here in this world without us having to purposely add to it. Either way, wishing you best of luck and positivity.

Forgot that there was a killer named Pazuzu. For those that don't know, Pazuzu is the name of an Arabic demon. Pazuzu is most commonly known as the demon from The Exorcist.

Great idea for a topic. Making a wrong turn, or simply getting lost, is often when you end up getting into scary situations. Would like more of these types of stories.

#4... as soon as I heard Sarasota described as having exquisite cuisine, lovely weather, and fine drinks, I chuckled. I knew where it was going. I grew up in south Fl. More palm beach area. There are lots of wealthy areas and it looks like a paradise but you can experience violence in the nicest airbnbs and hotels. It’s not even ‘don’t go down that road’ all the time. You get violence in the middle of a gated community on the beach. There are drug cartels, street gangs, various mafias... it’s crazy.

[@keenanholcomb5680]

honestly kinda questioning the first story, as i live in winston salem NC literally 5 minutes up the road from knob hill drive. and to even go down knob hill you would’ve had to go down peace haven road. but if you were up near krispy kreme and cracker barrel you must’ve went over the bridge that’s right above interstate 40 with multiple signs and peace haven road is past that bridge so i’m not sure how you ended up down there at his house after driving over a major highway not to mention all the gas stations that are right there at the fast food restaurants

[@cheriejones3692]

Jus because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's not true. Lookit up because I did and you're wrong. Remember time changes map locations 😶

[@keenanholcomb5680]

@@cheriejones3692 i don’t have to look it up, i pass that road everyday to get to the interstate i mentioned in my comment to go to work. that cracker barrel he talks about is right off of i40, you can literally see the highway from the parking lot, so i’m not sure what you’re talking about. what out of towner goes over a interstate, down another mile and turns down 2 roads they’ve never heard of? those being peace haven and knob hill, when they could’ve just went to one of the many gas stations that are in that area and have been for some time. i know because i travel that road daily, knob hill isn’t the first road available to turn onto when you’re on that side of peace haven road. just doesn’t make sense. would probably make more sense to you if you lived here. not saying i don’t believe the story but i pretty much have broken it down for you.

[@ericalbers4867]

@@cheriejones3692 dude most of his info about the whole thing was totally wrong. It's a bs story concocted from a few pieces of info he got from the news or a documentary. His timeline is so far out of whack it's impossible to explain it away. Not to mention the one they had in the basement for a couple weeks wasn't starved.. nor was he a "boy". It was a grown ass man. If he was there while the body was in the house.. but saw it on the news a year later, he's talking bullshit. The two guys were killed in 2009 but discovered in 2014. That's 5 years.. not 1 year. There's more wrong with his story but I'm sure you get the point by now. It's bs. Btw, neither of those girls were "cute" by any stretch or teens. If he was a teen, they were early and mid 20's at the time.

Pazuzu may have been good in the first movie, technically possessing Reagan to torture the pedophiles who'd taken advantage of her. That's only a theory but the subtext, etc fits and the director didn't deny it.

I JUST watched “The Devil You Know” about Pazuzu (real name John Lawson) and it was pretty disturbing, then I listen to this and the 1st story is about PAZUZU! I believe every word of that 1st story and I’m glad that guy made it out of that house alive!! Now THAT is a REAL scary story!!
