“I just hear rattling in my closet. It sounded like a raccoon in my closet,” Maddie, who requested only her first name be used, told Fox 8. “I’m like, who’s there? And somebody answers me. He’s like ‘oh my name is Drew.’ I open the door and he’s in there, wearing all of my clothes. My socks. My shoes. And he has a book bag full of my clothes.”

Maddie and her roommates reportedly thought Swofford was a ghost at first. She said she's recently had shirts and pants mysteriously disappear.

After meeting Swofford in her closet, Maddie said she called her boyfriend and talked to the suspect to distract him.

“He tries on my hat. He goes in the bathroom and looks in the mirror and then is like, ‘you’re really pretty, can I give you a hug?’ she said. “But he never touched me.”
