Woman left in shock after making major realisation while watching Netflix true-crime documentary
A US woman made a creepy realisation while watching a true crime documentary.
As the cold winter nights draw in, more and more of us will find ourselves spending our evenings getting cosy and binging various shows on Netflix - which is the exact thing one TikToker was doing when she noticed a creepy similarity between herself and a true crime series.
Kelly Dirck had been watching the show Into the Fire: The Lost Daughter, a two-part series which follows the story of a woman who discovered the daughter she placed for adoption had since gone missing.
Watch the trailer for the series below:

The documentary follows Cathy learning how the daughter she had placed for adoption had vanished from her family home in 1989, and her desperate search to find out what really happened after discovering the case in 2010.
Into the Fire shares various details from the night in which Aundria disappeared, including DNA left on a bedspread.
Now, this all sounds pretty standard for a true crime series. However, the bedspread being shown on camera left Kelly being creeped out after she noticed a striking similarity between this and the blanket she was currently sat under.
"So I'm watching this 'true' crime doc on Netflix, and somebody should go check the police station because I think they might be missing a piece of evidence," she said, before panning down to a navy blanket featuring flower and bird prints.
She then plays a clip from the documentary in which a detective says: "There were two specimens of DNA left behind by the offender Seminal fluid on the bedspread. Bedspread was submitted to the state lab for DNA testing."
She then turns the blanket over to reveal they both feature the exact distinctive print on the other side.
Panning the camera back to her own face, she adds: "I got this at a thrift store."
While it's highly unlikely that a blanket from a crime scene would've made its way to a thrift store and into her home, Kelly added: "Please tell me this was a common print back in the 1980s???
"Also fully recommend watching Into The Fire on Netflix - this was not the only twist that had me completely windblown."
The clip also left several viewers online feeling a little creeped out aswell, with one person writing: "You get an interactive experience."
"I woulda threw that off me so quick! Omg," a second person wrote, while a third referenced an episode of Crime Junkies podcast, adding: "I literally just heard a podcast where the police were 'done' with the evidence so they gave it to goodwill. Not even joking."
