A United States Postal Service worker from New Jersey was stopped in his tracks after spotting a strange and disturbing drawing pinned to the front door of a dilapidated home while making his usual delivery rounds.
According to The U.S. Sun, USPS worker Dom Clements came across an eerie drawing featuring the words “9-1-1” alongside cartoon depictions of two people with X’s drawn over their eyes. However, he would soon discover that the unsettling image was much more than a Halloween prank.
Cops Find Three People Dead After Postman Notices Disturbing ‘911’ Note with ‘Sad Faces’
Postal worker Dom Clements had no idea that a home along his usual mail route would eventually be the site of a horrifying discovery involving three dead bodies. However, a disturbing drawing taped to the front door of the Mount Holly, New Jersey, residence appeared to offer an unsettling clue to what police would later find inside.
After noticing the drawing and mailbox taped up with the same tape used to hold up the drawing, Clements decided to call the police, telling the New York Post, ” I thought it was weird, because the only person that would have been able to see that sign would have been me, ‘cause I’m the only one that goes to that house every day.”
He continued, “The only person who goes up to the door is the mail carrier. It’s weird. The whole situation was weird. Definitely don’t want it to happen again. That sign is so bizarre. It just felt weird. I was like, ooh, that doesn’t…That’s not like that happens every day, you know?”
Once inside, police discovered “a bloody scene” and three “elderly” people deceased. As of this writing, the identities of the people found inside the home and the cause of their deaths have not yet been released.
Neighbors Describe the People Who Lived in the Home, Admit to Unusual Sighting
Neighbors were later asked about the people living inside the deteriorating home, with one resident who wished to remain anonymous describing them as a reclusive family of brothers and sisters. The neighbor also revealed that one woman living there worked as a local crossing guard, sharing, “My kids knew her and everything like that. And so she worked parades and other things as a crossing guard here in town.”
She also went on to describe a man who also resided in the broken-down home, sharing that he would do the same thing every day: “The one brother; he was like clockwork. He would always walk down to 7-Eleven around 2.30, 3 and walk back. I think he would get lottery tickets and something to drink. But other than that, they would barely leave their house.”
However, she did notice something strange before she learned about their deaths, sharing that she spotted someone coming out of the house to put out the trash, something that she believed was unusual.
“All the years I’ve been here, I’ve never seen anybody come in, go out of the house [except for the man who walks to 7-Eleven each day],” she shared, adding, “But it was trash day. He had a bag in his hands, took it down to the curb, dropped it next to another container. It was just a little bag. He put it down and walked away.”
