She Bought A Freezer From A Neighbor And Found A Gruesome Surprise Inside

Buying things off of Craigslist can often be a sketchy experience. That’s why a lot of people choose to buy or trade things with their neighbors when there’s a mutual need. You know your neighbors, or at least you think you know your neighbors.

Occasionally, even those transactions can result in creepy situations. Take for example the case of one woman in Goldsboro, North Carolina. She bought a used freezer from her neighbor and literally found a dead body inside it.

According to police, the woman, who declined to be identified by reporters, had purchased a deep freezer from her neighbor but was instructed not to open it just yet. The seller said the freezer was being used as a time capsule for a class project with her Sunday school at church.

Someone from the church was supposed to come and pick up the contents of the freezer. However, after three weeks, no one had come by and she decided to look inside. That’s when she found the body parts.

“I have a serious problem. My neighbor sold me a deep freezer. I just opened it and there’s a body in there I think,” she told 911. “I am freaking out.” Testing later confirmed that the remains were actually human.

The woman said she believes the remains in the freezer were that of the seller’s dead mother.

Earlier this week, police were able to positively identify the body. However, as of this writing, they have not released the name of the victim.

Police are currently investigating the crime and are trying to figure out what exactly happened. The seller could be facing felony charges of concealing or failing to notify the death of a person.
