In San Sebastián de los Reyes, Felipe, a neighbor of almost 82 years old, is facing an alarming situation that has turned his life into a real hell. Owner of two adjacent houses, Felipe decided to prepare one of them for rent to earn extra income.
However, what started as a hopeful project turned into a nightmare when his friend, tenant of the ground floor, started having problems with his partner. The situation worsened when he left and the woman decided to change the lock of the house and stopped paying the rent.
From that moment on, Felipe not only had to deal with the lack of income, but also with constant threats and acts of harassment. «I’m going to be 82 years old and I see myself like I’ve never seen before in my life, with a fear that they have told me they are going to kill me,» declares Felipe visibly distressed.

One of the most chilling episodes occurred when the woman, in a fit of anger, tried to throw a dead rat at Felipe’s house. In recorded images, you can see how she manages to do it with the help of a dustpan after a failed attempt. This action is just a small sample of the constant harassment that the elderly man faces.
Felipe not only feels threatened by the intimidating words and gestures of his tenant, but he has also had to deal with insults and strange behaviors that seem to border on the paranormal. «She calls me all sorts of names, does things with her fingers, then makes crosses and does these things, practices witchcraft,» he comments.

The situation becomes even more complicated, as Felipe has accumulated a considerable debt due to the unpaid rent, amounting to around 12,000 euros not counting additional expenses. «It’s 300 euros per month, but then there’s another very important thing and that is that the bills that have been coming lately show that she’s not turning off the faucets, 219, 250 in electricity every month that I have to pay,» explains Felipe.
Despite his efforts to resolve the conflict and regain his property, Felipe has seen how his life has been severely affected by this situation. «My problem is not the debt, the serious problem is the fear I have of potentially dying at any moment there on the sidewalk,» he confesses.

Regarding the upper part of his property, it is currently rented to Paolo and Iván, who have also had their own problems with this woman. «She threatens us with death, paints things on our property, hit me, broke my mouth,» they recount visibly concerned about the hostile environment created by the troublesome tenant.
Felipe’s story is a chilling reminder of the difficulties that landlords can face in complicated situations and how harassment can severely affect the quality of life of the elderly.
