Once again, the goal is not just to scare you with these horror stories.  Rather, the goal is to get you thinking about what you need to do in order to protect your homes and your families during the hard economic times that are coming.

America was once such a peaceful place.  People would leave their homes and their cars totally unlocked and there was a feeling that you could trust almost everyone around you.

Well, all of that has now changed.  America is becoming a much different place.

The following are 10 shocking home invasion horror stories that are almost too creepy to believe….

#1 In New York recently, one home invader actually set up an XBox and played video games in the apartment of an 82-year-old woman while she was away for the holidays….



#2 If you were a home invader, would you leave a dirty pair of boxer shorts behind?  The following home invasion story from Sacramento, California was recently sent to me by one of my readers….


#3 A large number of home invaders will do it over and over again until they get caught.  The following is a recent report about one serial home invader from the Washington Post….


#4 When one burglar was recently arrested in New York City they discovered 100 different keys in his apartment.  They are still trying to figure out how he got so many keys to so many different homes.

But this is what many home invaders will do.  If they get your keys they will keep them in case they want to hit your place again at some point in the future.

#5 One serial home invader down in Maryland was recently sentenced to 100 years in prison.  So did he deserve such a harsh sentence?  You be the judge….




#7 In Wilmington, Delaware recently, a man offered to help someone carry a television down the street, but quickly realized that it was his own television which had just been stolen out of his own house….



#8 When thieves get desperate, they also tend to become very bold.  A reader named Mark left the following disturbing comment on one of my previous articles….


#9 Down in Tucson, Arizona a while back four armed home invaders were repelled by an armed homeowner that had a gun and knew how to use it.  There is no telling what the home invaders would have done to the homeowner if he had not had a gun with which to defend himself.

#10 When home invasions happen, sometimes people end up dead.  The following comes from a recent article in the Houston Chronicle….

San Antonio police Sgt. J.R. Fiste said two men broke into the house in the 8200 block of Quail Creek about 5 a.m.. The homeowner shot one of the men dead inside the residence, police said.The other suspect was shot in the chest and flown to San Antonio Military Medical Center, where he remained in critical condition about 7 a.m.

The homeowner was shot in the chin, Fiste said. He also was taken to SAMMC, where he was listed in stable condition.

#11 An 18-year-old mother named Sarah McKinley was faced with a very hard choice this past New Year’s Eve.  She was home alone with her three-month old son, and she called 9-1-1 when she discovered that two men were trying to break into her home just outside of Oklahoma City.  What happened next should give all home invaders something to think about….


Operator: “Are your doors locked?”

Caller: “Yes, I’ve got two guns in my hand.   Is it ok to shoot him if he comes in this door?”

Operator: “I can’t tell you what you can do but you do what you have to do to protect your baby.”


Unfortunately, at the same time that we are seeing society become more unstable, we are also seeing many local police departments around the nation make huge cutbacks.

For example, it has been announced that police stations in Detroit will now be closed to the public for 16 hours each day in an attempt to save money.

In the future, you are not always going to be able to depend on the police to protect you.  They might come out and take down a report once it is all over, but that won’t erase what just happened.

A while back I wrote about how many of our formerly great cities are being transformed into post-apocalyptic hellholes.  Sadly, wherever you have dramatic economic decline you almost always also have rampant crime.

As the economic crisis in America gets even worse, the number of home invasions will surely go up as well.

Now is the time to get prepared for that.

So do any of you have any creepy home invasion horror stories to share?

Have you noticed crime getting worse where you live?
