never miss another strange story subscribe and hit the bell sit back and get comfortable I have a few stories to share with you welcome in goodnight this is the second part of the long series called I cooked for a cannibal if you haven't seen the first part yet I highly encourage you to do so check out the link in the description or at the top right to this video right now here's a short preview of what happened in the last episode I started browsing on jobs online at sites sponsored by third parties the clients were always rich so I set up a new profile and started browsing gigs right away here's word-for-word what the post said the right candidate must be discreet and willing to work odd hours will provide my own equipment and refreshments I will pay the events any price for those willing to commit to an entire dinner come alone then they contact me with an address and forward 1,900 dollars into my account the place wasn't hard to find just another high-dollar neighborhood in South Austin it looked like the owner had about 12 or 13 acres all for themselves not one nosy neighbor insights very discreet whoever lived here was definitely not worried about money I pushed the door open and felt my heart skip a beat I literally froze in fear there in the center of the room was a man sprawled out in the table he was naked and tied down his arms open spread like an eagle and the same with his legs I stopped in front of the foyer to find a man standing there locking the door behind him he was well-dressed his beard trimmed neatly and his clothes dressed and ironed her true why would I do those I hired you his eyes beamed with a light as he realized I was considering the bizarre job offer caught my attention the most with the newspaper articles magazine clippings and other documents he had organized right in front of the six guests he had lured here a husband accused of beating his wife for several years before she was finally found bruised and bloody in two stairwell of their basement he pointed towards the next chair a teacher suspected of placing surveillance in the girls locker room and posting it online for lawyers to watch one of the girls committed suicide and he left his job before any charges were filled all of them are guilty in one way or another guilty of crimes that society allowed him to commit that they thought they can get away with he answered softly staring into six strangers in front of me their eyes were still filled with fear I pulled out the carving knife the men watched me expectantly to make a choice I was staring at the woman the one accused of hurting her own children she looked scared of her life she was crying trying to scream I wondered whether her children had done the same when she cleared them and if she had showed them any mercy at all I placed a knife right next to her hip bone and they began to cut [Music] [Music] ever have one of those moments where life is flashing before your eyes when those moments happen do you ever ask yourself what in God's name have I been doing with my life that led me to this point I had that happen to me last weekend let me tell you it wasn't a pleasant experience let me set the scene for you maybe then things will start to make sense I had a kitchen apron on in a carving knife in my hand the blade was a few inches deep into the torso her bleeding forty-something man he had died of hemorrhage just a few moments prior to that but still I kept cutting it was a brutal and violent act to kill this man where he lay struggling to breathe as I served him up on a platter to another stranger that I hardly knew but it wasn't until after the six individuals that had been brought to this slaughter were all gone and it really started to click but I had just been a part of this in no simple terms it was a massacre my employer was true to his word and let me leave immediately well after I showered twice just to get the stench of death off of me then afterward he reassured me that clean up would be his area of expertise I didn't hesitate to take the opportunity to get out of that house and on my way home back to where my children were waiting for me my friend Angelia was the one that really made me get a grip on reality she was the one keeping my children while I was doing what I was doing she was tidying up a few of the toys that the girls had played with when she asked me so how was dinner did you make a good impression it took every ounce of energy I had in me not to burst into you right there in front of I promised her I would tell her in the morning claiming I was exhausted the truth is right after she left I went into the bathroom turned on the vent got into a cradle position and started to shake and cry I'm a murder I'm a psychopath I'm a sick little human being they just cooked six strangers to satisfy the hunger of someone who was likely a madman and I don't think I came out for a few hours I just needed some space some time to think true to his word the man made certain to deposit the other amount into my paypal the next morning this time it was from a business account a good way for him to cover his tracks and that was it our transaction was finalized but that didn't mean I stopped thinking about what I did nothing could make me forget the way those people silently screamed when I used the tools provided me to turn them into entrees in that moment I had convinced myself that they deserved to die based on a very limited amount of information that had been provided for me I felt like I needed to go to therapy just to move on from it but I can't do that I can't tell anyone what I have done I shared it online just to get it off my chest but it hasn't cleared my conscience I don't think I'm ever going to be the same the main reason why I'm even updating this story is because the man contacted me again yes despite his promise that our little encounter would be a one-time occasion I received an email from the cannibal late last night here's the text in its entirety I wanted to thank you again for your understanding in your appreciation for the finer cuisine the Miller served me was exquisite I can honestly say it was unlike any experience I've ever had and it left me wanting one provided your schedule allows you I was hoping perhaps you could join me for a meal tomorrow did he address it closed now I know exactly what some of you may be thinking called the police change your email leave town trust me that I had all of these thoughts and a few more Wild Ones but there's the thing this guy knew my name he knew what I looked like and considering the efforts that he had gone through to lure six people into his home in South Austin I didn't doubt it would be possible for him to hunt down one woman with two small kids I feared for myself and for my children and I didn't even know for sure if he had actually cleaned up the last meal I made for him or not so I responded in a businesslike fashion and this time hired a sitter I didn't want Angelia asking questions as to why I had another job lined up so soon with the same employer in my spare time I did a little digging I figured if I could get a little dirt on this psycho I would never have to see him again the first thing I decided to check was his address since he had never properly given me a name it wasn't long before I realized I was dealing with someone somewhat of a professional the place I had gone to that ritzy Manor with all the privacy of a Yacht Club it was an airbnb rentable for $7,000 a night and according to their link that I checked it had been booked for a solid week ending last Sunday he had planned this every step was meant to cover his tracks fake email rental cars private villas it seemed like something that would take months to prepare which is why this sudden request for another event also surprised me especially when I checked the address of where he wanted to meet it was a very public place an open-air restaurant that I had actually been to before with my ex-husband a few years back in other words this wasn't going to be another slaughter fest with some sort of an arrangement to be made between us for future services just what those arrangements are is probably going to make my skin literally crawl I said a prayer and went on ahead to the place around 3:30 p.m. I made a resolution if I was going to get out of this mess I would need for this psycho to trust me enough to let his guard down I dress up again making sure to look presentable attractive even although to be honest I'm not sure what a cannibal might find to be alluring more skin showing possibly the thought alone made me want to cover up more as I stepped into the restaurant and saw him sitting there a smile on his face Cassandra you made it he said as he stood up and came to greet me he was making sure this was a very public display of affection the place was literally packed with other people he was counting on the group to help his cover story I thought to myself as he hugged me I don't think I've ever felt more uncomfortable in my entire life a waiter satis near an overlook my client ordered us drinks while I stared towards the afternoon Sun it's mixture of orange and red reminded me a bit of the blood that had seeped out of one of those bodies if I had an appetite at all before it was long gone now the man was admiring me as I stared it made me even more worried and stressed than anything else so finally I sighed and said you know I must admit you had me at an advantage you know my name but I never got yours he smiled as the waiter poured our wine Benjamin but my friends call me Ben he responded I had no doubt that that was likely a fake name but I played along with it anyways so then what sort of work are you in I asked as I swirl the olive in the glass with a straw this might shock you but I'm a lawyer or was until about a year ago lost a big case would have mouse ruined my reputation Ben said as he opened up the menu in front of him so you've been just living off of love since then I guessed the wish he laughed and said something like that I suppose I do have a life of luxury compared to some some I replied as I stopped and stared at him are you talking about me Ben smiled in a way that could send shiver up and down your spine not friendly or evil just emotionless but fake enough that no one around could have guessed it Kassandra it was clear from the moment he responded to my post that you had fallen on hard times it's nothing to be ashamed of though it happens to everyone he said and I suppose you're here to be my fairy godfather I countered I was raising my voice a little but I didn't care there was no way in hell I was going to let myself work for this man ever again I'm here to offer you a job if that's what you mean it won't be frequent of course but the pay will be substantially larger than it was before I would even put you on a retainer so long as you agree to the terms Ben said no I told you before I won't do it again I said firmly I stood up to leave and then try to grab me at my hand like he did the first time we met there was something he didn't count on when it came to a public place I grabbed my wine glass and tossed it at his face causing a few people to turn around to me and gasp in shock get your hands off of me I shouted loud enough to grab the waiters attention then I left in a hurry all the managers stood in between Ben and I I got in my car and immediately drove home I was feeling proud of myself for turning down what like there was a very real job offer I was even completely calm by the time I reached my neighborhood then I pull up into my driveway and held my breath again as I looked towards the door a window was broken and the garage was open I had left my phone at home just in case of an emergency because the sitter didn't have a cell phone he silently cussed as I parked the car and popped my trunk a burglar was inside my place I creeped to the back of my car and grabbed my tire iron from under despair before creeping towards the rear door and opening it slowly the house was too silent the sister taking the kids and round for it I kept the lights off as I creeped into my house and listen to any sound that was being made the intruder was up the stairs inside the kid's room i clenched the tie-rod harder and my wrist and bounded up towards it they were two of them they stepped out and pointed the gun at me but I was slightly faster and managed to hit them in the waist with a metal rod I stepped out of the way and watched them tumble down the stairs everything seemed to be moving in slow motion as they hit the back of the pole at the bottom of the steps the long upright rod impaling them instantly then I heard crying from the second floor office I went in and turned on the lights calling out for my twins they came out of the closet alongside the babysitter crying softly in my arms as we all had what happened mommy did you get the Batman one of my daughters asked I didn't want them to see the gruesome carnage below so I asked the sitter where she had left my phone downstairs in the den it all happened so fast I didn't get a chance to grab it I'm so sorry missing she mom old it's fine you girls all stay here I'll go and handle it okay I told him the three of them all nodded in agreement as I went down the steps past the pool of blood to retrieve my phone as I had lit it up in order to call the police I paused to see that I had one new notification from a number I did not recognize her anyway mmediately who it was should you reconsider you know where to reach me then I stared at the text for a long moment before looking up again at the young criminal that had broken into my home and tried to harm my girls I made a phone call he picked up on the first ring this is a surprise the psychopath sounded cheerful I clenched the phone tighter and responded is your schedule free tonight you [Music]
