The Westfield Watcher

In 2014, the Broaddus family encountered a nightmare after buying what they thought was their dream home in Westfield New Jersey. It was a home that they never even moved into. Shortly after buying the home, a mysterious letter appeared in the mailbox. Its tone was extremely ominous and it was signed by someone calling themselves The Watcher.

Join Mike and Morf for their Halloween episode where they discuss the spooky case of The Westfield Watcher. More letters followed and the terror grew with each letter. The family decided not to move in after a few of the letters mentioned their children in a threatening way. There are many theories on who The Watcher could be but so far that person has yet to be identified. Netflix bought the rights to the story and is set to make something on it soon.
