I recently moved into a nice new apartment in my area. I liked the feeling of living alone. I also had locks put on my door by the maintenance man Jim. He was middle aged with thick glasses.

About a week later after a long day at work I came in and went to sleep. In the morning I noticed my door was unlocked. I found that odd seeing as I always locked it. I just figured I forgot out of exhaustion.

But for the next week the same thing would happen. And things would come
up missing. More disturbingly, my underwear. So I started making sure I locked my door and still the same things occurred.

So I went to a electronics store and purchased the best quality camera I could find and set it up in a plant facing the door. The next day I checked the video and right as I was about to give up, I noticed a dark figure creeped in through the door. As it came closer to where I placed the camera, I saw it was Jim the handyman.

I phoned the police and I showed them the video. They left a police officer outside my door to talk to Jim. As I was about to lay down I realized that I saw him come in on the video tape but I never saw him leave. I ran outside as fast as I could and told the officer my discovery.

The officer called for back up and when they arrived, they found Jim under my bed holding a knife and a Polaroid camera.
