Terrifying moment ‘stalker’ bursts into woman’s apartment

A woman who was recording herself dancing in her apartment captured the terrifying moment her “stalker” burst into her home.

A woman has shared the terrifying moment a man broke into her home as she filmed herself doing a TikTok dance.

Hannah Viverette was recording herself dancing late at night on Sunday, November 22 when a “smiling” stranger appeared at her patio door and entered her home.

The camera, which was positioned on her lounge room floor, shows Hannah cowering in terror and asking “who are you” as she clutches her hands to her chest.

She then proceeds to step back, away from the intruder as she continually repeats her question.

He then asked her if they were friends and when she replied, “No,” he asked, “Are you sure?”

She then proceeds to tell the man to “please get out” as she grabs her phone and runs to her next-door neighbour’s unit for help.

“That moment when you’re recording yourself dancing and your stalker climbs your second story balcony to break in. #realsh*t #scariestmomentofmylife,” she captioned the video which was shared on TikTok on Sunday and has already clocked up 34 million views.

Reaction to the alarming clip has been huge with over 112,000 people leaving comments, the majority of them supporting Hannah.

“Chills just went over my body,” one woman wrote.

“This is so scary. Girl you are so brave,” another added.

“I’m so glad you got away safely,” one man said.

Others praised the neighbour for instantly letting Hannah into her home while more insisted Hannah needed to press charges.

Police in the US state of Maryland have arrested a man on suspicion of the break-in, according to the report.

Angel Moises Rodriguez-Gomez, 36, has been charged with two counts of burglary, second-degree assault, stalking and malicious destruction of property over the offence, a report by Fox 5 states.

Hannah spoke to the publication about her ordeal, revealing the man who broke in was “smiling at me” when he first made entry.

“He kept his hands in his pockets which is what initially scared me,” she said.

“Obviously the fact that an intruder is coming in, but he wouldn’t take his hands out of his hoodie. And I was worried that he had a weapon on him.”

Hannah said he lives in a building nearby and she’s seen him before, but he’s never spoken to her.

Despite the terrifying experience Hannah hasn’t let it deter her dancing, which she described as “my meditation”.

A week after the incident she uploaded a new video to the platform that shows her dancing in her lounge room – this time with a baseball bat beside her.

“I’m still dancin. Sun’s still shining,” she wrote.

It’s not the first time a terrifying moment has been shared on TikTok, with a woman in the US recently sharing a video of a man trying to record her getting undressed in a changing room on the social media platform.

Macey Leap – who goes by the username @maceyyall – shared a video she filmed inside a clothes store changing cubicle.

While the change room was private, it had a gap between the floor and the start of the partition, which ordinarily wouldn’t expose anything except their feet.

But as Macey’s video shows, the man in the stall next to hers had used this gap to try to record her getting undressed, positioning his camera phone between his feet on the floor to point inside her cubicle and film her getting undressed.

Macey used her phone to record the breach of privacy, writing: “A man attempting to record me changing in the dressing room.”

To date the creepy clip has been viewed over 17 million times with many declaring it “proof women aren’t safe anywhere”.
