[NEWYORK.CBSLOCAL] Terrifying letters forced a New Jersey family to flee their new home, and what happened left residents in the quiet community more than a little unnerved.I seen dis movie. Just the first 30 minutes. It wuz awful.
As CBS2’s Valerie Castro reported, the large six-bedroom home in Union County is being watched – according to a lawsuit filed by its new owners.
They paid $1.3 million for their “dream home” in the picturesque town of Westfield. They claim the previous owners were aware of a man who calls himself “the Watcher,” but they never said anything.
“I would be pretty upset if I bought a house and found out that the previous owners knew about it,” said Robert Hagen of Westfield.
Since moving in, the owners said they have received numerous letters from the mysterious person. “The Watcher” claimed the home “has been the subject of my family for decades,” and “I have been put in charge of watching and waiting for its second coming,” Castro reported.
The new owners have several children, and other letters asked, “Have they found out what’s in the walls yet?” and “I am pleased to know your names now, and the name of the young blood you have brought to me,” Castro reported.
