Today we’re going to hear from Jami. Jami had something happen to her when she was a teenager, and it clearly had a huge effect because she still thinks about it to this day.
One night she came back home from a trip to the grocery store. She parked her car, and before she got out she saw a strange man standing on the sidewalk, right in front of her car. He stood there looking at her, through the windshield.

Less than 10 minutes later, that man was in her bedroom. Yeah, this is a creepy one.

And if you like the way Jami tells this story, hang around til the end because we’ll talk about Murderish, the true-crime podcast she hosts.
