Woman spotted in locked pool holding missing keys on caretaker's phone
A winter caretaker discovered disturbing footage on a phone left by the pool, showing a woman standing in drained water holding keys that had gone missing.
A winter caretaker at a community center made an unsettling discovery during a routine check of the facility's pool. The caretaker visited twice weekly to prevent the pipes from freezing during the cold months.
The locked pool and abandoned phone
That afternoon, the pool cover was securely strapped down with black water sitting beneath the overhead lights. On the tile floor, Priya found the caretaker's phone.
The phone contained a 40-second video that captured mostly ceiling footage. Then the camera angle shifted downward toward the water.
A figure in the shallow end
For a single frame, a woman appeared standing in the shallow end of the pool, facing the wall. Priya zoomed in on the image until the pixels broke apart. The woman was holding Priya's key ring, the same one Priya had left on the desk.
An unexplained question
That evening, Priya turned in the pool key to the manager. Later, after watching the footage himself, the manager asked Priya why she had changed clothes before leaving.
