00:00This is a part three to the scariest things caught on doorbell cameras.
00:06And once again, by the end of the video, you may consider getting one yourself.
00:13In this footage that a viewer sent me,
00:15a person can be seen crouch walking towards his front door through his doorbell camera.
00:19The person was wearing a hat, face mask and sunglasses,
00:22allowing none of his face to be seen.
00:30After trying to open the front door and failing,
00:35the person starts to fiddle with the doorbell,
00:37noticing it's a video doorbell, so he probably tries to take it off.
00:50What likely happened was that when he realized that he couldn't get the doorbell unmounted without a special screwdriver,
00:55he started to hold his hand in front of the camera after ringing the bell.
00:59The viewer told me that this happened at 2 in the morning,
01:02and so when he heard his doorbell and ring notification go off,
01:05he instantly went to his phone to check who was at the door,
01:08only to see exactly what you're seeing.
01:10The man then walks past the doorbell to the side of the house,
01:13and by this point, the homeowner was on the phone with 911 reporting the incident.
01:18While on the phone with 911,
01:20the homeowner heard the doorknob to the side entrance door being fiddled with,
01:24and this was a door that he had been known to leave unlocked accidentally from time to time.
01:28However, luckily on this night, that wasn't the case.
01:31Since the intruder couldn't simply walk in through either door,
01:34he started to say hello repeatedly through the door,
01:37in an off-putting tone that sounded so overly friendly that it was creepy.
01:41The 911 operator told the homeowner not to open the door or to even acknowledge the person.
01:46The person would then start to bang on the door for a few moments until seemingly giving up.
01:51The police showed up but couldn't help out much based on the video.
01:55Later that night, the homeowner received another notification that there was movement at his front door.
02:00When he checked the video feed, he couldn't see anyone.
02:03He still has no idea who was under that mask and glasses.
02:06This following footage was also captured by a viewer's doorbell camera at their old house,
02:13which is still active while he tries to sell it.
02:16One morning at around 4.30am, his cameras detected a man running from across the street from his neighbor's home,
02:22across his front yard, and up to his front door.
02:25The man was naked, with one of his hands blocking his privates.
02:38The footage was caught from two angles.
02:41He was arrested a short while later by local police,
02:44and was apparently high on crystal meth,
02:46and he had removed his clothing due to a fear of snakes being inside of his clothes,
02:50and he was running around the neighborhood knocking on doors and ringing doorbells yelling for help.
02:54The neighborhood is reportedly pretty quiet.
02:57The homeowner never had any sort of issues before this.
03:00In his words, he ran up my front yard onto my front porch and rang the doorbell.
03:05For the next minute or so, he was ringing the doorbell and knocking while pacing back and forth.
03:10He looked panicked, and his expression drifted from someone in pain to a look of pure crazy,
03:15and at one point said he needs help.
03:18After that, he ran off back into the night.
03:20The guy was picked up by an officer around 5 a.m. not far from his house.
03:27And this footage is why you always check who's at your door before you open it,
03:31especially if you have a doorbell camera.
03:33If someone who you don't know shows up to your door late at night, don't open it.
03:37Unfortunately in this video, that's exactly what this homeowner did.
03:41Around 10 p.m. one night, a suspicious looking hooded man approaches the front door of a random house rather quickly and aggressively,
03:48and he right away tries to open the door.
03:50After realizing it's locked, he goes to ring the doorbell.
03:53Disappointingly, the homeowner opens the door rather quickly instead of checking who's at his door at this hour first.

04:02Sounds You're Ver die
04:13Hellooo
04:15Hi
04:16How fare you, sir?
04:17Who are you?
04:18Ericعne Susber
04:19Good, you need to leave.
04:21How fare?
04:22Out there.
04:24Where's the fence at?
04:25What the fence at the master?
04:28The homeowner was likely too trusting a person, which put him in danger.
04:43Even his initial hi to the stranger at his door sounded overly friendly,
04:47considering the man was already creeping in the second the door was open.
04:52The homeowner pushes the man out, causing him to punch the glass of the door before it's even fully closed.
04:58The man then stands there for another minute or so, fiddling with the doorknob a few times,
05:02though the rest of the footage is cut off.
05:05The dialogue is near impossible to completely make out,
05:08but it seemed the man was under the influence of drugs or alcohol,
05:11and was likely attempting to burglarize the home.
05:14The homeowner called the police, but the man was gone by the time they arrived.
05:18It's unknown if he was found.
05:19This image was posted from the owner of a ring camera and a Facebook group to caution others.
05:30The woman warned in her post to beware a strange man wearing a white mask lurking around the neighborhood
05:35after her camera caught him trying to look into her home a little after 10pm one night.
05:40The woman said,
05:41I just want my neighbors to be aware and safe.
05:44Please, if possible, share this post.
05:46Screenshots are welcome.
05:48Not sure what colors he was wearing, but had a hoodie and jeans on.
05:52The disturbing picture shows the man in the mask looking directly into the camera.
05:56This is exactly the type of image that you'd never want or expect to see come up on your doorbell camera footage,
06:02but it's also the kind of image that would make you sure as hell grateful that you had one.
06:06Neighbors of the woman also reported seeing the man walking around and approached their front doors.
06:11Thankfully, no one opened the door to him.
06:17On May 1st, 2020, around 9.40pm, around the beginning of the COVID lockdown,
06:24a 45-year-old dad, Raymond Hawkins, opened the door to who he believed to be a delivery driver dropping off a parcel.
06:30Due to new methods of delivery at the time because of COVID,
06:33the alleged delivery driver backed away from the front door to supposedly keep his distance
06:38and claimed he needed to take a picture of the package at the doorstep,
06:41something many delivery drivers must do for more expensive packages.
06:50At this time, the father had his guard down due to the fact that he had no idea the man in front of him wasn't a delivery driver,
06:58and that he was in fact part of a gang that was about to storm into his house,
07:01all of whom armed with knives.
07:03All of whom armed with knives.
07:31Christopher Sargent, the fake delivery driver, lunges at Raymond with a knife and attacks him when he goes to pick up the package,
07:59while three other masked men follow from behind.
08:02Muffled cries come from the house, as there's a struggle between Raymond, his wife, and the robbers.
08:08The robbers are only in the house for a few moments before being seen fleeing the house with thousands of dollars' worth of items.
08:14Raymond and his son suffered non-life-threatening injuries, while his sons were described to be worse.
08:18Two of the culprits would be arrested, Anthony Lascellas and Christopher Sargent,
08:23who were both charged with aggravated burglary and possession of a knife.
08:27The other two culprits were never found.
08:30One thing that can be learned from a lot of these videos is that some people will go to crazy lengths to trick other people.
08:36The major red flag in this case was that the supposed delivery was taking place at 9.40pm,
08:41which is way past the time any notable delivery company will deliver packages, usually the latest being 7pm.
08:49On April 10th, 2020, this was the footage taken by the ring doorbell of a viewer's friend Kayla in a small California town.
08:57Kayla was being stalked by her crazy former friend Thomas who became obsessed with her over time
09:02and would constantly express his alleged love for her despite her telling him numerous times that she didn't feel the same way.
09:08The week that this footage was taken, Kayla was bombarded with texts and voicemails from Thomas.
09:14And as you can see if you care to pause the video and read some of the texts,
09:17it starts with what seems to be Kayla accepting his apology for his behavior.
09:21However, as the texts and voicemails just keep coming in, she begins to realize how crazy he may be.
09:27What you're about to hear are some audio clips from different voicemails he's left on her phone after she had stopped answering him.
09:34Hey Kayla.
09:35Uh, listen, I just, I want to make sure you're not too worried about what happened at the party last week.
09:43I had an amazing time and I think, God, I think you're goddamn beautiful.
09:49And I, I, I, I'm sorry I got so sick.
09:52I wanted to come be with you while you were getting ready.
09:56And I was just so totally out of it.
09:58And I'm sorry.
10:00God, I think I might love you.
10:01And I'm sorry.
10:02And I, I'm gonna give you some space.
10:06And I want to be there for you.
10:07And be there for you.
10:08And I can't get you out of my fucking head.
10:09And I want to be there for you.
10:12Goddammit.
10:13So fucking, goddammit.
10:15And all I can do is think of you.
10:17And I want to be with you.
10:18And I want to be with you.
10:19I want to be your Flynn Rider.
10:20And I want to be everything for you.
10:23Goddammit, babe.
10:24You're fucking amazing.
10:26You are amazing.
10:27You're my knight in shining armor.
10:29And I'm so fucking terrified of you.
10:31And I, god, I love you so much.
10:34I love you so much.
10:35Please call me back.
10:36No, I lied.
10:39I'm not gonna give you some space.
10:41I'm sorry.
10:41I'm coming over.
10:42I know you're up and thinking about me.
10:44I'm sorry.
10:45I'm, I'm talking.
10:46God, I'm not sorry.
10:48God, I'm coming over.
10:50Fucking, I'm already driving.
10:52I'm Britain driving the whole time.
10:54Goddammit, goddammit.
10:55I'm coming over.
10:57Fucking, I'm not gonna give you space.
10:59I know you called me back.
11:00I saw that.
11:01Yep, I know you're up thinking about me.
11:03God, god, goddammit.
11:06Oh, goddammit.
11:08I'm coming over.
11:09One way or another, I'm coming over.
11:11Fucking, whatever, however, whatever.
11:14God, I'm coming over.
11:15I'll see you.
11:16I'll be there in like 10 minutes or whatever.
11:17I meant whatever.
11:18I'm coming over right now.
11:20Damn it.
11:21I'll see you.
11:22Bye.
11:23I love you.
11:26Rough road.
11:28Oh, it's a rough road.
11:29Fuck you, Kayla.
11:31I am fucking crazy.
11:33Goddammit.
11:34Fuck you.
11:35I'll drive into the field.
11:37Goddammit.
11:38Things like that, huh?
11:40Fuck you.
11:41Fuck you, Kayla.
11:42I am goddamn crazy.
11:43I'm crazy for you, goddammit.
11:45I'll do it.
11:46I'll do it.
11:48I'll do it for you.
11:49I am crazy.
11:50Oh, that would give you a cop.
11:54Uh-huh.
11:55Uh-huh.
11:56Uh-huh.
11:56Uh-huh.
11:57That would give you a cop.
11:59We just don't know.
12:00Uh-huh.
12:01Uh-huh.
12:01Uh-huh.
12:01The footage of him showing up to Kayla's house was right after one of his phone calls saying
12:31he's coming over, even though it was clear by this point she wanted nothing to do with him.
12:35Eventually, Kayla and her friend Ravon would find out that Thomas wasn't even his real name.
12:40His real name is Matthew. He'd been using the fake name Thomas Castle, which was a reference to the
12:45Marvel character The Punisher. Thomas was a reference to Thomas Jane, the second actor to play
12:51The Punisher, and Castle was a reference to Frank Castle, The Punisher's last name. The fact alone
12:57that he had been using a fake name with his friend and supposed love of his life was already a huge
13:02red flag, and maybe a sign that he was hiding something in his life. The ring footage was taken
13:06at two in the morning, and after leaving, he would go on to send some more texts, which would
13:11progressively get angrier. Four days after this footage was taken, Kayla and her friend went to
13:17the police and filed for a restraining order. He left her alone about a month or so after the
13:21restraining order was put into place. Kayla blocked his number and blocked him on social media,
13:26and reportedly he basically disappeared from the world, and no one knows where he is now.
