Brooke Astor lived the kind of life that many people dream of. She had multiple homes, cars with drivers, and servants who catered to her every need. Brooke, however, made one mistake that would lead her to a life of squalor, fear, and danger. What was her mistake? She neglected to give her only son "enough" attention. When this spurned child reached adulthood, nothing could stop him from wreaking his brutal revenge.
No matter how patient and kind we are day to day, everyone has a breaking point. Somtimes the only thing to do is say “Enough!”
There are few experiences more satisfying than getting to say “That’s it, I quit”—and these stories are proof.
When someone really pushes our buttons, we'd like to think that we'd hold our head high and turn the other cheek, but revenge is so, so sweet.
From creepiness to full-on horror, these inexplicable moments will not be forgotten by the people who lived through them—not now, not ever.
Nothing stays hidden forever—and these dark family secrets are proof that when the truth comes out, it can range from devastating to utterly chilling.
