Naked Woman Found After 83-Year-Old Stabbed to Death in Royal Oak

This time of year, you expect to see creepy decorations in your neighbor’s yard, not what residents saw in Royal Oak recently. The whole thing played out like a scene from a slasher film or something.

Police say an 83-year-old man was stabbed to death in the basement of a home on Sheridan Drive, and the suspect was seen running away with blood on her hands and completely naked.

It all went down Friday night in what neighbors say is a quiet, family-friendly area just off Woodward. According to FOX 2, officers found a 35-year-old woman outside with blood on her hands. A chilling scene for neighbors, for sure.

Police say the victim was related to the homeowner, who wasn’t home when it happened. They say the woman is a family acquaintance and possibly a nanny or caretaker. She was taken into custody but hasn’t been charged yet. At least as of writing this article.

It’s the freaky kind of story that makes you double-check your doors at night. A chill Royal Oak neighborhood that was turned into a real-life horror scene, and no one can quite wrap their head around why. Police are still investigating, but this one’s going to stick with neighbors for a while.
