[@jarsofpaperstars]

The first time we see the mother, she has her baby horribly underdressed during winter. Next time we see her, she’s crying while pushing an empty stroller. I think that’s implying the baby died from neglect, and it’s honestly horrifying to think that detail, which is completely removed from the main story and general theme of stalking, is just there. Like the main focus is our character and multiple customers worrying about stalking and assault cases in the area, while in the background a child dies from an idiot parent’s carelessness.

[@_chrshcmps]

I actually saw some other vids that the stalker might have something to do with the baby cause the mother was rude to the girl

[@LyricaSilvan]

@@_chrshcmpsYeah I think that’s more likely, given the theme. It’s sad either way, but given the fact that stalkers are often disproportionately attached to the objects of their affection and will do anything for their attention, it would make sense. The stalker witnessed the mother being rude to the girl he’s infatuated with and took it upon himself to “punish” the mother for daring to speak to her that way.

[@jarsofpaperstars]

I think one of the best things about this video, and by extension the game, is that Jack literally got to experience the real psychological damage that stalking can do to people. As he put it "I can't concentrate on this order." It stresses you out beyond reason, even when you aren't in danger or the person isn't nearby, the threat of their presence is enough to disrupt your life.

I once had a bartender almost cry when he took my order one night. He said I was the only one who used manners and didn’t scream in his face over the music all night (it wasn’t even a nightclub, just a pub with live music) the music was loud enough to have to raise your voice but not enough to scream at a person. It breaks my heart to see people break down over the smallest, most basic human decency and kindness because they’re so used to abuse and mistreatment.

The poor dad was full on sobbing because he and her mom got divorced when she was a small baby, leaving the mother with primary custody, so he had never gotten calls or emails from her school or gone to any parent teacher meetings. Apparently it was the first time he ever heard someone say that his daughter was a good kid. She was an 8th grader at the time.

[@pacificpainter7232]

The freaky thing about this game is that these things actually happen. I remember I use to walk to and from school because my dad used the only car to go to work and we didn't have enough money to pay for the bus fare and one day I remember walking to school and this dude just appeared out of nowhere and started following me, I remember feeling scared and uncomfortable but thank goodness one of the schools male counselors was driving by and asked if I was alright, I went up to the window and tried to quietly explain the situation while this guy was watching and staring at me the entire time, the counselor didn't feel comfortable with me getting in his car but agreed to drive right beside me as we made our way to the school. This creep followed me all the way to the school and still didn't leave so once the counselor parked his car he told me to go to class while he handled this dude and he called security. I didn't know what happened after that as I had just headed to class but a few days later my dad got a call from the school saying that a man was claiming to be my uncle and was there to pick me up ( he stated what room I was in and who my teacher was) which my dad immediately shot down saying that he was the only person who would ever come to pick me up and he was currently at work. I didn't understand this back then but the fact that the guy came to the school specifically asking for me and knew my classroom number and teacher's name (which he couldn't have known because I never talked to him and nothing I was carrying like my backpack or my lunchbox had my name written on them) meant that he had been watching and stalking me for those few days I didn't see him. Usually the school didn't call parents for pickup confirmation because well it was a safe district and things like this rarely if ever happened but because that male counselor told the office staff to watch out for anyone asking for specifically me they thought to call my father instead of taking the creeps word for it. Still to this day I'm so grateful for that counselor who looked out for me because I don't know what that guy would have tried the first day I caught him following me if he hadn't noticed my discomfort while driving by.

The fact that we kept hearing people say that "oh, no one would wanna stalk you" "who would stalk you" "you're not pretty enough to have a stalker" over and over from different people (senpai, the girl in the very beginning, the girl trio, etc) is crazy. People joke about stuff like that all the time and the game kept it real by having others kind of jokingly/non jokingly put people down for speaking up about strange behaviors. This can keep victims from speaking up about it again, so joke or not, listen to people around you. I just thought it was an interesting factor put into the story and characters, more realistic.

[@_MaryStuart]

Honestly I agree, harassment and stalking should always be taken seriously. At my work I’ve gotten people removed from the property for harassing and stalking our workers including myself. Even with a bunch of people present those situations are still very high confrontation and scary.

[@yumiisvelmasghost6786]

It's really sad when you realize some of the people don't believe others because they've had someone or they themselves make up strange outlandish stories to get attention, so they think that everyone is making up stories. It's "the boy who cried wolf" problem but instead of them thinking it's only that one person who makes up stories they believe everyone is like that (they push that idea onto others even though it's not true) and never believe anyone when they tell them something "out of the norm" is happening to them. Like I know for sure if said something weird was happening to me I would tell my friends and family and theyd believe me, every word. If someone doesn't believe you, make sure you are not one of the "boys who cried wolf." First. And then assume this person is just untrusting of people telling them "strange" stories, if you're in this situation keep telling people around you what is happening to you even if they don't believe it you need to keep talking about it out loud.

[@giraffe6856]

I think majority of people not taking it seriously is because they think it's way too dramatic to be happen for real. Because often those types of things are more explicitly showed in tv drama or movie, which people can THINK those things happen in real life when they're watching a movie, but once they leave the theater, they don't think that much. At least most people believe those things will not happen to people around them. But then when that case is on the news, AFTER there's a serious injury or death happened, THEN people will believe it. However, even then, news is at the end of day, it's ON TV so people can be somewhat cautious, but to get to the point where fully believing one person's statement is really hard. Unless that person have met several people who have suffered a lot regarding to those incidents before. Just like how people don't believe in people with depression. People know depression is very common, but they don't believe people around them are depressed. But when that person actually do something that cannot be undone, THEN people will believe. Before that, people will think you're just being dramatic.

I know it's just a game but I hope that Funahashi senpai guy hears about our case on the news and throws up from guilt. I absolutely hate people like that. A stalker will stalk anyone who is vulnerable enough, or who fits in whatever delusions or fantasy they have. ( in this case the stalker is the guy who's phone we found in the beginning. So it's literally random!! )

Had a guy follow my through a strip mall, and it’s absolutely terrifying. I had my earbuds in on the way there because there were so many people and it was mid day, so I thought I was safe. Before I left one of the stores, my phone’s music suddenly started skipping as if the thing was a scratched up CD. I didn’t understand it but I figured my phone was just being weird so I put it and my earbuds in my pocket and left. That’s when I heard him behind me. He was extremely close and if I’d have stopped suddenly, he would’ve run into me. I went into the closest store and went right to the first person I saw (thankfully she was the manager) and explained I was being followed. She told me to go hide in the back with her employees while she kept watch until my dad could come and pick me up. I never walk with earbuds in anymore, and I’ll be forever grateful that my phone just happened to glitch that day.

[@rxzwl]

Not good that that happened to you, but I’m glad you learned to not wear both earbuds when in public. In my town it’s honestly best not to wear them outside at all (the towns quirky like that), but some people still wear one at a time- including me haha. Still, it’s normally a good thing to leave at least one earbud out.. which in hindsight is kind of upsetting but WHAT CAN YOU DO, right?

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before (probably has) but I'm gonna explain anyway. The woman with the missing baby was crying because her baby was gone/dead? She was still carrying around the stroller because that was probably her way to cope/deny the reality. My theory is that the stalker murdered the baby in order to scare the woman. Stalkers often believe that they're some sort of angels or saviors, and he probably saw the woman rudely telling us to watch where we're going. That angered him and he decided to "punish" her. This is the sad reality. This game is scary realistic. Especially the part about there not being a happy ending.

48:57 "because I picked up his phone and gave it to him?" I've worked customer service for ten years. Yes, that's really all it takes. Being friendly and polite is part of your job, but some people need very little to become extremely attached to you. Unfortunately, they don't all act weird or give you a "feeling". Some of them behave perfectly normal. Some of them take years before they finally really look at you. It is a very fine line you walk working customer service. It does make you not want to leave your house, but you just have to accept that some of the really attached ones probably already know where you live, so you might as well go to work.

As soon as I was able to get a job NOT working customer service (at least face-to-face, over the phone is better), I've done everything in my power never to go back to that headspace again. And I used to live above where I worked so I could never escape some of these people. Some of the customers somehow knew I lived in the same building and would regularly comment about it, or try to bother me when I was leaving the apartment not even working a shift. It doesn't bother some people, but if you're already shy or social anxious FUCK the constant avoiding giving any personal information, being forced to interact with the same people everyday who know exactly where to find you and can spend all their free time watching you while you HAVE to have a smile on your face or you'll get fired and can't pay your bills.... and then when you very gently reject them they make it their lifes goal to complain about your service or badger you daily hoping you'll change your mind. I know it's a small percentage of people (in my experience it was only middle aged men harassing a 18-20 year old) but it made me even more paranoid and socially anxious as a result. Plenty of other people who showed interest were polite and normal about how they asked but it only contributed to the feeling of being overwhelmed by literally just being perceived and existing in the space of other people. Yeah sure, they might be a nice person NOW but after I reject them are they going to start being awful? You never know until it doesn't even matter. Modern capitalism really is it's own nightmare lol.

One of my exes (Who's a good friend of mine now) was stalked, and harassed a few years back. They were on their way home from school, and they felt someone staring and following them. They walked into a crowded area, but unluckily for them, the route from school to their home leads to some shady, sheltered walkthrough. They got harassed, and went home, never the same again. Everyone, please be on your guard. There are many people out there who are absolutely fucking sick. Don't let them get you. We may drown ourselves in internet humor, but we must remind ourselves that reality is a thing, and you could get stalked, kidnapped, sold, enslaved, raped, no matter how small the chances. If one of your friends seem like they are just using you or are manipulative, please leave them. If you feel as if somebody is following you, head to a crowded area, or an area of authority immediately and call somebody, preferably a group of people that won't leave your side so easily. If it is a group of one gender, it is much better, as everyone can head to the bathroom together, and nobody will be left alone. Always have something on you that can seriously injure somebody, and put them out. This is NOT a message that recommends having an item to harm others, but rather a message that tells you to have an item that you can use to defend yourself much better. Whether it is a taser, a heavy object, or your heavy bag. Anything that can protect you, bring it on a daily basis. You will appreciate this one day. Follow your routine carefully, and remember small little details. If something seems odd, you will know. And an obvious one. Don't just waltz into suspicious areas. Make sure that, whatever you are doing, is absolutely worth the risk. If you have to go home and it's late at night, or you have to go through a shady area, *Call somebody. Never travel alone.*

Funfact/ SPOILER for different ending: There's another possible ending (or well, way to die), that you get when you go lock yourself inside the toilet and flee through the vent. It gets kinda scary because the stalker will come into the café and nearly pound the door down while you open the vent with the screwdriver (truly amazing audio design when that happens). Than when you are outside you can go into your car and try to leave, but the stalker will be on the backseat and creepily crawl towards you and you lose.

One thing that made me really creeped out was the baby lady's crying. She is crying because she lost her baby, or rather, SOMEONE KIDNAPPED HER BABY. The stalker literally kidnapped her child because she was rude to Jack.

[@feartheghus]

@@C_D_Productions well the satanic stuff is scary because magic can't be fixed as easily as real life problems. It's one of the reasons all these horror games don't give you a gun, and why player's biggest complaints regarding horror games that start giving you guns, more ammo, etc. is that it removes most of the horror from the game. In this situation, scary though it is to be stalked, if this woman had a concealed carry pistol and some training in the use of it the only complicated and dangerous part would be the legal fees for a self defense case in court.

I got stalked by a man in his late 40's when I was in middle school. He would circle the block that my bus stop was at. Our first interaction was him pulling over and asking me if I needed a ride. He called me gross names and would try to give me rides to school. I hid behind trash cans and hoped he would leave. It was terrifying. The pure dread you feel is indescribable. You can't help but think "What if I don't make it home today?" He never got caught by the police. I will forever be scarred by that man and will never forget his face. I hope that no one else has to go through that.

[@feartheghus]

@@Fazbear_Theaters it's a horrible concept that kids would have to defend themselves, since it's the parent's jobs to protect their children and enforce a community that doesn't allow shit like this. Now, for adults stalkers become far less of an issue, at least in America, because you can use a gun. Unfortunately, you had best buy it now, because you're not allowed a handgun until 21 in most places even if you're stalked at 18, you have to wait a long time for the background check to go through, which can easily be and often has been 2 weeks or more, and many people have been murdered by stalkers who they knew were dangerous because they had to wait so long to get protection. It is a travesty of justice that a woman cannot quickly acquire a gun to defend herself with in a country built by the moral use of guns, but at least you can be prepared for it now.

[@ellasmith9921]

**TW: SA** As someone that's been working in fast food and restaurants since their very first job, I understood all of this and have many MANY horror stories about stalking behavior and just the jobs themselves stressing the crap out of me. But nothing can be compared by "The Dishwasher Guy". I started working at my local Applebee's as a hostess, trying to be trained as a server. And as a hostess, you're basically the busboy. You know, cleaning tables, putting dirty dishes in the kitchen for the dishwasher to wash them, etc. Well, this particular dishwasher guy didn't know any English. He only knew Spanish. As someone who likes to be nice, I would say hi to him in Spanish. Just so we're clear, this guy was in his late fifties early sixties. And I'm barely legal age at this point and I physically look like a twelve year old. And after this, he would always try to talk to me, but I wouldn't understand him at all since I only know a handful of Spanish words under my belt. But he'll try to make hand gestures to help me understand what he was trying to say. The usual conversation was hi, how are you, nothing really else. And this Convo would happen Everytime I went back to the dishwasher to drop off dishes during my shifts. And everything was fine until he was asking more questions. I would, again, not really know what he was saying but he used hand gestures to help me sort of understand. During one of my shifts, I went back there to drop off dishes and he started asking me something. I caught one word that I understood which was house in Spanish. And he made a hand gesture for sleeping. So I kind of put together that he was asking me if I was ready to go home and go to sleep. And I said sí as yes I do want to go home. Then he said something else, but made a hand gesture of a phone. And that's when I kind of got confused, so I just nodded my head and went back to work. A couple weeks gone by and he asked the two questions again in the same order, hand gestures and everything. I tried to ignore him at this point and had told one of the managers that he was kind of creeping me out. They said they would talk to the general manager about since they were the only one to speak Spanish fluently. Then it got worse. He would try to hold my hand while I was handing him dishes, he handed me a piece of paper with his phone number on it, try to hug me(which I pushed him away of course), and even tried kissing my hand. I tried telling my coworkers what's going on, but nobody really took me seriously, unfortunately. They were actually kind of making fun of me for it and was saying I was leading him on just because I said hi, how are you to him. Obviously no one wanted to help me, so I tried to find my own solution. I've been avoiding this guy at all costs. But I know I unfortunately can't hide from him forever so I looked up boyfriend in Spanish. And when I went back there, before he even started anything, I said boyfriend in Spanish and he finally backed off... Or so I thought... After I said that to him, he was leaving me alone for the rest of my shift except for when I was leaving to go home. He went up to me, smiled, and held his hand out as you would when you're giving someone a handshake. And I thought this was a way for him to apologize for being a creep to me. So, I hesitately went for the handshake and then all of the sudden, he pulled me into his arms and started kissing/gnalling on my cheek. I pushed him off and went straight to the manager about what happened and asked if the GM went to him yet. They didn't yet but told me they would right away. I was shaking and crying from this since I suffered sexual assault/abuse before and it just really shook me. The next day, I had to work, but the GM was there so I asked them if they knew what was going on. Apparently the manager that I told all of this to didn't tell them squat what just happened to me, even when I first mentioned about the guy creeping me out. I told the GM everything and they were furious. They searched the security cameras just to have physical proof and fired dishwasher guy right on the spot. If you made it this far, I'm so sorry for my long rant here. Just thought this would show people that this stuff happens. And it's unfortunately very common, especially for women. It's a scary plot of a video game, but just know it happens. And that's what's the scariest of all. *EDIT* Holy crap, I never thought this comment would get this big!!! And thank you all for your kind words. I’m so sorry to all who have gone through similar situations as what I’ve gone through. You guys seem amazing people and I hope all of you are doing better. And as an update for the guy, I saw him at my favorite local Mexican restaurant, bussing tables. And he was staring at me the whole time I was there and had to leave. And I haven’t been back ever since. I love you all and please please PLEASE be safe out there ❤️❤️❤️

[@kevinjenkins233]

I don’t think Jack ever realized this game actually has 2 different stalkers, the 1 living in the store in the hoodie, and the 1 with the phone and the katana, it’s theorized the phone stalker killed the milk stalker out of jealousy. The game is really good at masking the presence of two stalkers though.

[@quinshelton2295]

the fact that almost every female I've ever worked with art a customer service job (including me) has dealt with something like this and knows not only the stress of the job but the fear in his voice when he talks about the stalker hits a little too close to home. the feeling that hits you in your gut when you have to walk into work every day feeling unsafe and have to perform well and take on the stress of the job itself is just so terrific :)

[@Sirfy]

As a woman who works with the public, this kind of shit is my deepest fear. We've had stalkers in the store and gross old men harassing us and trying to touch us.

I cant imagine how terrifying it must be, to know that someone's following you. Whether you're a man or a woman that shit must be super scary

[@Tadpoli]

@@armandpeanutspinou3430 It was horrifying. I was 15 when it started and it was an older man who lived in my apartment building one floor above me. He used to wait for me to get home from school and just stare at me with these huge eyes to the point where I had to have my friend's much taller and more intimidating looking boyfriend walk me to my building. I was scared to death to leave the house. It continued until I graduated and I eventually moved away for college but my friend stayed in that apartment complex and when I we were both in town I'd go visit her and I'd see him still there riding his bike and he would immediately recognize me and follow my car. My parents did nothing and actually didn't believe me until they both saw him in person. It's been nearly six years and haven't seen him in a few years but I still get panic attacks if I see anyone wearing an outfit similar to what he wore almost everyday and I still hate going back to that complex.

My coworker explained to him that she already has a boyfriend. The stalker even told her "Don't worry, he won't find out". He even admitted to having a girlfriend himself the pathetic cheating bastard. So I told my coworker to not be subtle and give him a firm "No, I am not interested in you leave me alone". After she finally had the guts to tell him he even denied being interested in her and that he would never cheat on his gf. The stalker told my coworker that he must have imagined it. After that he finally stopped coming to our store, creepy fucker.
