Why Are You Here?

First I'll start with what brought me here... Someone on my FB friends list posted a link about an Atlanta woman who was shot by the police after she threw her son out of a window and they find her stabbing her mentally ill daughter. When i clicked the link, it was to this site...and ever since, I have been hooked like a worm to a fish!!!

Seriously I love the Investigative Discovery channel, I watch behind mansion walls, stolen voices buried secrets, deadly women, wicked attraction, 48hrs on ID, On the case with Paula Zhane (SP?), Aphrodite Jones, cold blood, and more lol & Snapped on Oxygen, & first 48 on A&E ...i am a true crime fanatic...my boyfriend hates when i have the remote lmao
 
It's funny (odd) how appalled our families are by our affinity for this site. I don't understand it, but on some level I guess I expect it. Geez, it's not porn!
 
I get odd looks when I tell people about this site. Being in the south, I usually make sure to say 'it's not demonic!!' when I first describe it. lol But some people just don't 'get it'. We're a unique bunch. :dance:
 
lol my boyfriends sister wants to check it out now :) i told her about the lady that microwaved a 10 week old kitten and she was like "OMG she's fucking psycho" :laugh:

My sympathies to him, but if your avatar is even close to your real self I guess he doesn't have too much to complain! :biggrin3:
 
I too lurked around after linking to the page off a google search... I was awestruck by the content ( obviously ) and as a mother I just haven't ever been able to click off the site for more than a few days... I know this site has made me a hovering mother but IDGAF. When I start to think maybe I'm too overprotective I click the little red D' on my bookmark toolbar and I'm justified.

Btw. if that white stuff around you is snow as it looks like, wasn't it a bit chilly dressed like that...?? Of course I'm NOT complaining either....!! :biggrin:
 
Yea it snowed last new years eve...i was headed to a party but I had already started drinking...so I wasn't cold like that...but I did wear a coat lol!
 
I mainly go to another forum that is similar to this one. I still really only go there, but its been a little slow lately. I have more spare time now, so I plan to come visit here a bit more. :-)

I've posted this on two other threads, not sure anyone cares that I repeat my self so I'll just post the link. But it was baby Benjamin Sargent that brought me here...his terrible, heinous death.

I realize that this post is years old now, but I just stumbled upon this thread. I just had to say.... that the Benajmin Sargent case is by far the most disturbing case that I have ever read on this site or any other. I completely 100% agree. It haunts me daily. That is something I will never forget.
 
Wow! Last post was in 2012. Talk about a day late and a dollar short. But I'm here!!! Started out with Ogrish, LiveLeak, YNC, Kaotic, All the gore: Best Gore, Rotten Daily and wound up here. Lurked for quite a while, then joined. It reminds me of where I used to work - at the end of the day on Friday, all us "Social Workers" would sit around and talk about what is going on, who'd we'd like to send through a woodchipper, talk about our cases, some dark humor.

This is the only place where a round peg like me can actually fit into a square hole without having to be bashed in to fit. There is intelligent conversations, passion, empathy, some trolling, and humor.

I wish I could be more consistent in posting and reading, but life takes precedence.

TMI: I have a husband whom I've been married to for 13 years, but have been together for 22. A 15 y/o son who I would like to smack up side the head right about now, 4 dogs - Pugsley Addams, Malina the "God damn dog", Jama Bahama Momma (13 y/o), Mr. Elwood Peabody aka "Bootie" my loveable, adorable handicapped dog (partially blind, malformed hips).

That's it.
 
When I was younger and I became ill, (fever usually) I felt like I could hear things, people more like demons or something they would scream and make scary noises. As I write this, I realize I have never told anyone about this other then my childhood bestfriend may she rest in peace. Anywho, when I was ill, I was usually left home alone because my parents worked sun up till sun down and my siblings were in school and this would go on. When I was old enough to watch what I wanted I was hooked on anything that had to do with murder/death/cold cases. They intreged me. When I got my hands on a computer, well it went viral after that. I particularly like OLD cold cases. I think they were more discreet back then. Now, now crimes are more disgusting to me. No heart. Ofcourse, ALL crimes are disgusting and I dont condon but anyways, thats it ;)
 
I have 2 kids but I wouldn't attribute my membership here to them. I have always had a slight fascination with death and crime. I'm known as the "morbid" one among my friends and family. Not sure where that comes from to be honest. I could recite most of the major points to most well known crimes. I am somewhat of an "armchair detective".

My intrigue with these things led me to declaring a major in Psychology and a minor in Criminology. I am 2 years in, although I'm taking a few quarters off from that to get my Medical Assisting degree. I have every intention of finishing up the Psych/Crim degrees but the field right now is not good in my field. Gotta consider employability and not just my interest (I do have interest in medicine as well though).

I love that there are other like minded people to discuss the darker side of life with!
 
I read a CNN article about a male babysitter raping a 3 yrd old boy and he needed a colostmy bag afterward :( I read the comments and someone said the story was sad, but not like Baby Briannas story, I googled Baby Brianna and couldn't stop crying for days, couldn't stop reading, the more I read the worse emotionally I got ( unresolved issues of the past surfaced) finally after 2 months I left and came back regularly mostly to lurk.
 
One of our boys was at a friend's house and a bunch of their friends met up to go to a party. He called home and asked for someone to pick him up because he didn't want to go. When we got there all the other guys were getting in a car and we asked if he was sure he didn't want to go. He said no, so we came home.
The next day, his friends were all arrested for gang rape of a 14 year old. Whatever his feelings were that night, i am glad he called for a ride home.
That is how I found the only sweet spot in the world where I feel even remotely accepted. I think differently from most people and do not understand the most simplest things that people do, so this site truly intrigues me.
 
When Laci Peterson "disappeared" it was the first time I used the internet to dive into something that intrigued me, true crime wise...I found a forum that was all about true crime and it blew my mind that someone created a place for that. Unfortunately, it was a shit hole filled with desperate housewives & jesus freaks and other undesirables in my book, and even more unfortunate, it took me a while to find other places focusing on the same thing. I did eventually find my way to other forums, but they sucked in the same and other ways.
I probably visited Dreamin Demon the first time during Casey Anthony fiasco, just lurked about, but didn't become a member at the time. I was a mod at a different forum and spent nearly all of my time there, but eventually that forum went to the wayside. With it's demise I walked away from all the crime forums for a few years.
Lately I've missed having a place to discuss the atrocities I read about. I wasn't about to go back to any of those other forums, so I was thrilled to see the DD was still here, and still the place where someone can express their thoughts full of all my favorite swear words and suffer no recriminations.
 
I like to save people always have since I was little. I married a man that I witnessed be abused by a cold hearted Mother (we've been together since we were twelve we are both 35 now) and he was sleeping in the abandoned building next door to me she had threw him out of the house as soon as his father died at the tender age of 9. As we grew together I saw the damage the abuse his mother caused both physically and psychologically and I knew had I not come into this mans life when I did the wrong circumstances could have turned him into a killer as he has always been cold as ice, unloving, unfeeling and mean as hell just not with me or our children but with the world at large. I encoutered many people in my life that needed saving from themselves or from an abusive person/family member. Most people don't understand how I can be with someone like him as I am the total opposite but it was the watching him grow as a man and the callous demeanor that came along with it that made me want to explore the world of abuse and what makes people behave the way they do towards others and the lasting effects on those abused. Well the morbid side developed with my research. Now I spend my free time with my DD family, watching ID, and reading true crime novels if I was not so old already I would go back to school to be some type of criminal behavior specialist turns out 90% of the time I peg people correctly without an assessment.
Now you know more about me than I wanted to share but great question kind of gives us a little more information on what I call my morbid family. :p
 
I'm here because Demons was recommended to me by a few friends at a site that is falling apart. LOL
BlueLover - I hear you. I grew up with someone who later became a real SOB, but was always the same to me. His quote, "I never told you I was any good." :(
 
This is all penance for me. I grew up with girl in Colorado who had boyfriend from outside our very large circle of friends who rubbed me and basically everyone else the wrong way. As a result I was cruel to him and treated him with callous disregard along with most of our friends. One day my friend showed up in a state of shock. It turned out that that her boyfriend was a serial killer and was stashing dead prostitutes in the backyards of his friends and family which included the backyard of my friend. She had no idea what was happening. We all recognized how closely she missed the bullet, and while I know We're not responsible for a bunch of dead hookers. I can't help to picture him strangling some lady saying to himself. "I'll Kill you (insert my name here) I'll fucking kill you! while doing it.

I was reading a crime story, it had links to here so of course, I was horrified and fascinated at the same time and have not been able to look away!! This place is creepy and wonderful at the same time!

I too started at another true crime site, which was mostly a link site, with witty commentary, but it was shutting down and this was one of a few sites recommended.. I've been lurking around for over a year I think. I've always been fascinated by human nature/psychology/crazy shit going down. I suspect some of that is just from trying to understand my own nut job family.
