The Watcher House Part 1 (Westfield, NJ)

Dark House - A podcast by House Beautiful - Wednesdays

Alyssa and Hadley recount the bizarre story of 657 Boulevard in Westfield, New Jersey, which became the target of an anonymous stalker who sent threatening letters to the new owners, Derek and Maria Broaddus, just days after they bought the house in 2014. The co-hosts review the disturbing letters sent by “The Watcher,”—who is still unidentified—and review the former homeowners and closest neighbors who were all considered as suspects. They also discuss the emotional and financial trauma Derek and Maria Broaddus suffered as a direct result of the letters, and why some members of the community accused the couple of writing the letters themselves.
