Tell me some apartment living horror stories.

One apartment horror story is about a couple who moved into a new place. At night, they would hear strange scratching noises coming from the walls. They thought it might be mice at first, but when they called an exterminator, nothing was found. The noises continued and grew louder, until one day they found a hidden door in the closet that led to a small, dark space. It was really creepy.

My apartment had a mold problem. It started as a small patch in the corner of my bedroom, but it quickly spread. It smelled musty and was probably not healthy to be around. The landlord didn't seem to care much and just told me to keep the room ventilated. But it was really a horror to live with that constantly growing mold.

One horror story is about a tenant who found out the apartment was infested with cockroaches the day they moved in. The landlord had hidden this fact and refused to take any action. They had to spend a fortune on pest control themselves.

I once had a neighbor who was constantly smoking in the hallway. The smoke would seep into my apartment, and it smelled terrible. I'm allergic to cigarette smoke, so it was not only unpleasant but also a health hazard. I complained to the building management several times before they finally took action.

Well, in my first apartment, there was a constant leak in the bathroom. Every time I took a shower, water would seep through the floor and into the downstairs neighbor's ceiling. It was so embarrassing and I had to constantly deal with the angry neighbor and the unresponsive landlord.

Joke: Why did the apartment go to the doctor? Because it had too many drafts (draughts).

One horror story is about a strange noise. A student in college apartment would hear scratching noises at night coming from the wall. It was so creepy that he couldn't sleep well. He thought it might be rats at first, but when he checked, there was no sign of any rodents. Eventually, he found out that the wind was blowing a loose piece of metal outside the building against the wall, which created the spooky sound.

Living in a college apartment offers more independence. You can set your own rules and schedule compared to living in a dorm. For example, you can choose when to study, when to have guests, and when to relax without as many restrictions.

A common one is bad landlords. They might not fix things on time or try to raise the rent illegally. For example, I knew someone whose landlord didn't fix a leaking roof for months. It made the whole apartment damp and moldy.

One horror story could be about a tenant finding out their apartment was infested with rats. They would constantly see rats scurrying around at night, and even found rat droppings in their kitchen cabinets. It was a nightmare trying to get the landlord to take action.
