Woman Told She Was Hallucinating Was Right: Police Found Man Living in Her Loft

Her TikTok post revived a case later verified by a police search, with the housing provider citing an arrest.

Overview

  • Chloe, 31, from Gravesend, reported noises and an open loft hatch for months but was dismissed and prescribed the antipsychotic quetiapine.
  • Nearly two months later she saw the hatch open, called police, and officers found a man with bags in the loft before taking him away.
  • Moat Housing said tenant reports prompted work with police that led to an arrest, and a spokesperson said the loft space has since been secured.
  • The loft spanned the length of the top-floor flats, creating possible entry between neighboring units.
  • Chloe has shared her account on TikTok, drawing attention to disbelief tied to mental health and to basic housing-safety risks.
