College Girl Convinced That Her Apartment Is Haunted And A Ghost Keeps Stealing Her Clothes - Nope, Just A Creepy Dude Hiding In The Closet Wearing Them

NBC NEWS - A North Carolina man was arrested after a college student came home to her off-campus apartment to find him hiding in her closet and wearing her clothes, police said.

Andrew Clyde Swofford, 30, was taken into custody Saturday afternoon near the Summit at The Edge apartments in Greensboro after a 20-year-old woman called 911 to report the spooky incident.

I actually listened to a podcast recently which is basically this same story: a girl moved into a new apartment in Washington and immediately started noticing things missing when she went out, like a couple cans of Coke and some yogurts. One day she came home because her bathroom was flooding, and her little tiny puppy had been placed in the sink, which was impossible for him to jump into.  Turns out it was some homeless dude that had been living in the very tiny crawlspace above her bedroom.  She was taking a bath with the door open when the attic door flopped down.  Somehow, she did not poop in the tub, which would have been my certain and immediate reaction.

One difference here is that that girl thought it was her poor brother who would come in and steal some soda and food and just wasn’t telling her (she was also very dumb and naive, it’s a frustrating listen.)  This girl at UNC Greensboro went the supernatural route.

The woman, who attends the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, said she and her roommates initially thought a ghost had taken up residence in their apartment after she noticed her clothes disappearing from her closet and handprints on the bathroom wall, according to WTVD.

This chick had the Warrens in the apartment casting out the demons and evil spirits that were leaning on the bathroom wall while stealing her blouses.

Nope, turns out, it was just Drew, the creepy guy from the neighborhood.

On Saturday, however, the woman realized it wasn’t a supernatural spirit in her apartment, but a stranger.

The woman said she left her apartment Saturday morning and when she came home around lunchtime she heard strange noises in her closet, said Greensboro Police Department spokesman Ronald Glenn.

When she checked inside, she noticed her clothes were disheveled and a few items were missing, Glenn said. She then noticed Swofford hiding in the closet wearing some of her clothes.

As scary as that is, the dude’s response made me LOL.

“I just hear rattling in my closet,” she told WTVD. “It sounded like a raccoon in my closet. I’m like, ‘Who’s there?’ And somebody answers me. He’s like, ‘Oh my name is Drew.'”

Oh, who, me?  It’s just Drew.  Yeah these are your panties and high heels.  Sorry about that.  They’re a little small by the way, maybe size up?
