Sometimes we grow so accustomed to our opinions, views, and ideas about the world around us that we forget other people might have a different approach to life.

To help themselves remember, a Reddit user who goes by the humorous nickname Secretary-BootyJuice on the platform asked everyone on it, “What’s the weirdest thing you’ve found in someone else’s home?” and folks immediately flooded them with memorable replies.

From creepy interior design elements to questionable utensil placements, here are the ones that received the most attention during the discussion.

At a friend’s home, an african mask visibly and obvisouly chained to a wall.

When I asked why the chains, the friend answered “Because it tends to move around the house by itself.”

My own stuff.

It was Halloween and I went to a friend’s house. They had up some decorations and some other things that looked oddly familiar. I asked him where he got those and he said my GF gave them to him for decorating.

You know things like family antiques and old pictures of my extended family and stuff that I thought were in my garage.

I took them all back and I’m 100% sure that was the beginning of the end for her and I.
She eventually left me for my friend.

In another life a long time ago I was an AT&T U-Verse installer. You know, home internet and TV and such. I worked mainly in NE metro Atlanta. It was a decent gig until I got injured. Anyway, I digress.

I did the install for the guy’s neighbor after the fact, and I met the guy in question. The other installer was tasked with internet and three TV set top boxes- DVR in the living room and two others in bedrooms. House was a split level with , and the master and living room were on the main level. After identifying those two rooms, the installer asked which of the other two rooms across the hall needed the other box. The customer said, “neither. It’s going to go up here.” Customer then reached up and pulled the attic ladder down.

Full stop, right? Well, here’s some background before we continue. The customer was a professional clown, a name I remember to this day. No, I won’t dox the guy but I sure will say that the installer completed the job but did take pictures of what he saw and handed them over to his supervisor.

In the attic, in the far back corner, was a room with a small door with a padlock on the outside.

Inside was a child’s bed, some toys and stuffed animals, and some random unisex toys. The room was decorated with happy looking pictures on the walls, one of those race track rugs, and a small tube TV with a DVD player and some young children’s’ movies.

The installer was instructed to install a set top box and run a new coax cable line to the room. He obliged, of course. I mean, who wants to get padlocked in an attic room?

Afterward, he said that the guy was giving him creepy vibes even before the attic business. Maybe because he was a professional clown? I don’t know, but what I do know is that I don’t trust clowns anymore.

Once visited a remote location as a traveling sales rep. Met with client who referred me to a friend at an unmarked house with no address.

Dude had yellow sticky notes on every imaginable object with the name of the thing all over his house. Proceeded to tell me he had murdered 3 of his wives and buried them in pieces around the property and then offered me some heroine for being cool for listening to his story.

Figured I’d accept to not be rude. Told him I can’t get high though so I’d take it to go and do it later.

Accidently took his jacket with me as I left, got his number and told him Id do a follow up with him next week, sold him two units.

Turned everything over to the cops later and the sales bounced so I assumed he was taken care of.

While working for a carpet cleaning company, I had to go into their basement to check their spigot supply. I said, “I need to go down to your basement to make sure there is not a busted pipe.” He said, “okay but watch out for the chickens.” I get into the guys basement and there’s hay and chickens around. I should mention that this is in the middle of a dense urban area where chickens are not allowed. I asked him what they were for, and he said thet are there for the tics that they had. However, I used to live in New Orleans. I recognize voodoo paraphernalia when I see it. We worked that house very quickly.

I was with my sister and we were for the first time at a new friend’s house. My sister and I were maybe 12 or 13 years old. Into the finished basement we went, it was kind of dark. A closet door was open. My sister sees like five human heads and starts screaming “THEY’RE KILLERS! THEY’RE KILLERS!” And then books it out the bay window (basement patio).

As it turned out, the mother was/is a hairdresser and had mannequin heads with hair kept on the upper rack/shelf in the basement closet.

Edit [clarification]: She didn’t geronimo out of the window, she was in a panic and fearing for her life, it didn’t occur to her to use the door. She pushed through the blinds, shoved the screen out, and ran into the backyard.

When I was in my early 20s, a friend from high school moved into an apartment up the street from where I lived. I went to visit her one time. There were used maxi pads on the floor in the corner of her living room. Some were still rolled up in TP, some unrolled — there were quite a few of them. She would come out of the bathroom after changing her pad and throw the used pad in the direction of a small waste basket — if it went in the basket, it went in, if it landed on the floor, that’s where it stayed.

Working for a moving company, guy was moving from a small condo to a gated community, he had several Tibetan gold plated human skull begging bowls that he had to “smuggle,” back to the US. He did have some cool stuff like several broadswords, a morning star, two katanas etc. but as we was showing us around and telling us what to grab and what not to grab, one of the guys I was working with found a partially opened closet, he opened the door all the way and there was just a thick purple curtain hanging from the ceiling to the floor. Dude freaked out and said that none of us were allowed in there.

Got in touch with someone offering fancy rats for sale as wanted a few as pets. Went round their house and as well as a few dogs there were snakes, spiders, lizards, all sorts round the house in every room (I assume that’s why they bred the rats…) Anyway – I was admiring a tarantula when they guy says ‘that’s cool but do you want to see the main event?’ Took me outside and there’s a huge Eurasian Eagle OWL on a perch. At first I thought it was animatronics or something. It had eyes like dinner plates. Seriously huge. Look up how big an adult one is. Quite a shock when you’re not expecting to suddenly be stood in front of one. Not sure you’re supposed to keep them as pets. He said he ‘walks’ it in the woods behind his house and it once took off with a cat.

An engineered support beam that had _dozens_ of holes cut into it to accommodate pipes, conduit, and ductwork, because the guy designing the multimillion dollar mansion this thing ran the length of had no idea what he was doing and didn’t account for everything that needed to be run before he put it on place.

Still haven’t seen a news story about a rich dude’s house collapsing though, so I guess it worked out.

I cleaned out a foreclosed house for the bank once. It looked like the previous owners had just run out for an errand. Everything was still there. Clothes, photos on the walls, even toothbrushes in the bathroom. It didn’t seem like they took anything with them.

My friend’s older sister is a bit of a recluse, she’s turned her bedroom into a videoshop, she must have thousands of blurays, dvds and videos, all shelved with aisles like a Blockbuster. Nobody’s allowed in but I would have a sneaky peek when I was round. She’s a bit of a goth too so it’s all dark in there with neon lights and UV paint.

My friend’s grandmother had a taxidermy of her late dog stood on the top of their stairs. Super creepy.
