I found my roommate sleeping under my bed — then he confessed why he’d been there for months

It’s the strangest game of hide and go-seek.

A petrified man, 24, shared the terrifying tale how he caught his roommate sleeping under his bed on Reddit.

“My roommate staring wide-eyed at me, and he screeched when I looked under the bed,” the Reddit user, who goes by @Slumbering3, wrote online. “I literally thought I was having a heart attack.”

The unnamed man uploaded a post online about how his roommate of two years Karl was hiding out under his bed for several months before he noticed.

“He confessed he had been sleeping under my bed a few nights a week for ‘three or four months’ and that he was doing it to get closer to me and ‘psychically saturate each other’,” the man cringed.

The pair agreed to be roommates due to “happenstance,” but Karl, 24, seemed to make more out of the friendship.

Karl, who the original poster identified as pansexual, often asked his roomie about his interest in experimenting with other men, which the Redditor immediately shut down.

“I said ‘I didn’t feel comfortable with him asking me such a personal question,'” he said. “Every time I said this he basically said “we’ll see.” I was like, what?”

Despite the awkward conversations, they continued to cohabitate without a hitch until one daunting night at 3 a.m.

“I had a horrifying experience. I heard a noise under my bed. It was movement,” he revealed. “At first, I thought I was imagining things. But then I heard it again. I thought, oh god, is it a mouse or a rat or some sh-t?”

The Redditor jumped out of bed and turned on his phone flashlight to see what was luring underneath, only to lock eyes with his roommate.

“[I] started hearing; ‘Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry,’ my roommate crawled out from under the bed crying, apologizing over and over,” he admitted.

Completely gobsmacked and “creeped out” the Reddit user runs out of the apartment dressed in his pajamas.

“I have never before this moment felt true terror and fear as a physical sensation, but I was completely jolted,” he added.

While he processed this strange situation inside a 24-hour Dunkin Donuts, Karl sent back-to-back text messages apologizing for his behavior.

But no apology could make him feel comfortable being around his former roommate again, he waited for Karl to go to work before returning to the apartment to gather his stuff.

With one month left on his lease and no intention to renew, he stayed at his friend’s place to avoid the eerie interaction.

What felt like a “lucid dream” to him only escalated when word of the scenario reached their friends, who viewed Karl’s actions as “improper” but believed his former roommate should have accepted his apologies.

However, many people online disagree with giving Karl a “second chance because he’s ‘sensitive,'” with some even calling him a “predator.”

“Dude is not mentally stable and you need to get out of there,” pleaded one person. “His behavior is criminal stalking.”

“Get a new roommate. If he’s willing to do this, then what else has he done?” questioned another.

“Yes, you did shame him. Yes, you rejected his apologies. Why? Cause he crossed so many boundaries of common decency, privacy and basic human respect,” commented an online user. “This is the behavior of a predator.”
