Hello, i'm keep Morrison from daytime nbc. Here's a special preview of our new podcast, the man and the black mask.
IT was a happy habit that evening walk the summer habit, of course, too soon now that crisp by bit in the air would turn bitter cold, but not yet. That day, friday after to reserve had been uncommonly warm for edmonson, and twilight seemed to linger as they ambled along the path that wound its way through their neighbor. IT was a good neighborhood, safe, established, not quite grand, but not modest either. So they wandered the two of them and listen to parents calling in kids from the park, almost dark now. There, out of nowhere there, IT was sudden, shocking, terrifying.
I have never in my life felt fear like that.
That is merrison khani. Remembering the Young man who stumbled out of an ali and collapsed .
to their feet, came across our path, just fell from us.
stumbling along. Yes, mrs. Part in a house. I was alarm too, but something about IT seemed off somehow.
And uh, to me that didn't look real, looked like he was staged.
And what what was he doing you're saying? Or how is he behaving?
He looked at rock me and IT was just .
a instant bad feeling. IT was like everything in my body, just tencent up. I felt bad. This is a bad situation. I knew right away something was wrong.
And then, as if on to another man appeared seemingly in pursuit.
And then as I looked up, the attacker almost actually ran into me.
Attacker looked that way, at least whoever was was wearing a dark hooded switcher and a hockey mask, just like this serial killer, Jason, in all those friday the thirteenth movies.
IT was like every nightmare you had as a child after watching scary movie, 是 every name you've ever had。 All the students right here, like this master guys, is standing .
there and then said, maria, the mask man, did something quite unexpected.
Well, he, the guy in the mask was pretending that they were friends, that vate those two were friends.
pretending, and maybe they really were friends.
because the way that he fell to me, look, look.
stage to get us to stop so that they can for us.
We thought I was a set up for us now.
convinced that this was some sort of choreograph mugging, my isa took off running.
I was like, i'm getting out here right now. I was so scared. I was so scared. And I just, I needed to get out of here.
but not travel. He stayed behind, still not quite sure of the man lying at his feet. Backing for help was in need of saving or now to do him harm. So you didn't know whether he was going to assault t you exactly, or whether he was running from that guy for real exactly.
My response was to run and get the hello a here. His response was, what's going on here? I need to figure out what's going on down the black.
I was freaking out on him. I was yelling at him. I screaming at him.
And I was so mad at him, and I was screaming, like, high pitch travel her like, because he kept trying to figure out what was going on travel. What were you trying to do? What you trying to be hero? You trying to be hero. And I was like.
I just wanted to go, drivers said the man and the hockey mask then calmly walked away and disappeared back into the ali from which he came, but not the man lying on the path. He stayed right where he was. What in the world is going on? Trevor was done trying to solve this mystery, an ran after mera leaving the man on the path behind, so pleading for help, rather like a season method actor like IT, was an episode of the twilight zone driver. Marisa got home quick as they could and call the police, telling them about the man and the mask and the guy begging for help.
We said, well, we think we are getting robbed. Like that's how we had described IT was, we thought we were gonna be robbed in. So where can they go from that? That was a weird situation.
A report was taken, squad cars, proud the streets, and I is nearby, though by then IT was too dark to see much of anything .
based up around and I was, didn't find IT didn't find anything.
And no victim ever came forward. No one ever reported to believe that they had been assaulted in a quiet neighborhood by a man in a hockey mask.
I still love neighbors about that mask.
So was this some sort of staged robbery attempt, or someone's idea of a sick prank? I really thought .
that the end of this thing, he just last this way all the way to the bank on IT. At the end of the day, it's a big publicity thing for him.
Or was IT something else altogether? Did you feel sometimes like you're in the middle? Handler, the matter, i'm kiss Morrison. And this is deadlines s newest podcast, the man in the black mask.
