When I was about 20, I lived alone in an inner-city neighborhood in Atlanta. I was in college and pretty lonely, so I’d sometimes go to a local bar and read.

One night, just before Halloween, I was at the bar and a guy sat next and started chatting with me. He was a bit older, blond hair and quite friendly. We shoot the shit for about a half hour when he looks at me with this serious look and says “you should leave this place now”. And then he vanished - like in front of me. Just gone. I felt this fear and left immediately.

The next morning I was walking to the train for school and passed the same bar. It was taped off as a crime scene, there were police all over. I asked a bystander what’s up and they said a man had been murdered in the bathroom the night before. WTF???
