Horror Flick Scenario In Chantilly

A resident heard a noise coming from inside the residence, according to Loudoun County Police

CHANTILLY, VA — How creepy is this? Think of all those cliched horror flicks. Or even, for those of a certain age, Hitchcock movies. Anyway, here's what went down in the wee hours of Thursday morning in the 43100 block of Watercrest Square, according to the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.

Around 2 a.m., the victim told police of hearing a noise the resident believed was coming from inside the apartment. Cue the spooky music. And then? The doorbell rang. The resident went to the door. No one was there. The next morning, however, evidence was found that someone was, in fact, there, when a window screen was found damaged.
