Ep 4. Down the Rabbit Hole

Fear Thy Roommate is a true crime series that profiles stories of people who have been victimized by the people they shared a roof with. In season 1 episode 4 titled "Down the Rabbit Hole", we are introduced to two young women, Ashlie and her roommate Chasity. Ashlie, an aspiring artist who had recently returned from Europe, found herself in dire need of a roommate to split the rent with. Luckily, she met Chasity via Craigslist, who was also looking for a place to stay.

At first, things seem to be going well for the roommates as they kept their living space tidy and lived in harmony. Chasity even went out of her way to decorate their apartment with her own artwork as a way of making Ashlie feel more at home. However, things start to take a dark turn when Ashlie began to feel uncomfortable around Chasity. She had noticed that Chasity was always around, and would often follow her to her art shows and events. Ashlie even found herself isolated from her friends and family because Chasity was always around. She sensed that Chasity was becoming increasingly obsessive, but didn't know what to do about it.

One night, Ashlie came home to find Chasity wearing one of her dresses. This alarmed Ashlie as she had not given Chasity permission to wear her clothes. At that moment, Ashlie began to think that Chasity might be trying to become her, which led her to wonder what Chasity was capable of. From that point on, Ashlie started to check Chasity's background on social media and discovered that Chasity had a history of stalking and identity theft.

Ashlie's fears where confirmed when she came across a cardboard box filled with pictures of her, her friends, and family that Chasity had taken from her social media pages. The creepy thing about the pictures was that Chasity had photoshopped her face into Ashlie's pictures pretending to be her. This had Ashlie feeling more isolated and creeped out than ever.

As time went on, Ashlie continued to feel alarmed and terrified by Chasity's actions, so she called the police to report the situation. The police didn't do anything, but it was a turning point for Ashlie and Chasity's relationship. In an effort to get Chasity to leave their apartment, Ashlie even went as far as faking a breakup with her boyfriend as a way to make Chasity uncomfortable.

On the night of Ashlie's art show, Chasity surprises her by showing up uninvited. Things take a sinister turn when Chasity reveals that she has been providing support for Ashlie for longer than Ashlie ever knew. Their conversation gets heated, and Ashlie starts to fear for her life. She realizes that Chasity is the most dangerous roommate that she has ever had.

At this point, the events in this episode of Fear Thy Roommate come to an end, leaving viewers to question what the ultimate outcome of Ashlie's frightening situation is.
