Well, I heard of a case where in the 3 - person university housing at UCLA, there was a major conflict over personal space. One person took over most of the storage areas, leaving the other two with hardly any room for their stuff. Also, there were issues with the heating system not working properly in winter. They had to constantly call the maintenance but it took ages to get it fixed. And on top of that, one of the roommates had a really bad habit of borrowing things without asking and never returning them.
A roommate had a pet without permission. It made a mess and there were issues with allergies for the other two. The university found out and they all got in trouble.
Sure. There are cases where the plumbing in Section 8 housing is in a terrible state. Toilets keep getting clogged, and the sinks have a foul smell due to old and broken pipes. The landlords don't fix these problems promptly, and the tenants have to live with these disgusting conditions which can also lead to the spread of diseases.
Sure. One horror story is about a tenant who found out the craigslist rental was actually a sub - lease without the landlord's permission. The 'landlord' on craigslist disappeared after taking the deposit, leaving the tenant to face eviction from the real landlord.
Sure. In Johannesburg, there are horror stories about slum housing. Some areas have extremely overcrowded and unsanitary living conditions. Families are crammed into tiny shacks with no proper ventilation or clean water supply. It's a breeding ground for diseases and a very difficult situation for the people living there.
I don't have a personal Bellevue University online horror story, but I've heard some students had issues with the online platform crashing right before an important exam. They were unable to submit their answers on time and had a hard time getting the university to understand their situation.
Sure. There was a case where a public housing landlord suddenly increased the rent without proper notice or justification. The tenants, who were mostly low - income families, could barely afford the original rent and this sudden increase put them in a very difficult financial situation. Some were even at risk of being evicted.
Sure. Buying a 'fixer - upper' house thinking it'll be a great investment can turn into a horror story. Middleclass families might find that the repairs cost far more than they expected. Hidden problems like mold, faulty wiring, or a crumbling foundation can eat up all their savings and then some.
One horror story is about the old dormitory. There were rumors that at midnight, you could hear strange footsteps in the hallway. A student once saw a shadowy figure outside his door when he woke up to use the bathroom. It really scared him and he couldn't sleep well for weeks.
One common horror story is the stealing roommate. Some UCLA roommates might steal small things like food or even money. It's a terrible feeling when you suspect your roommate of taking your stuff.
There was this time I was in an old hotel. I was staying in a room on the top floor. In the middle of the night, I heard faint footsteps in the hallway. Then, the doorknob started to rattle as if someone was trying to get in. I called the front desk but no one answered. I pushed a chair against the door and sat there trembling until morning.
