  (#1) The Corpse in the Garden

  A group of friends rented an AirBNB in the countryside south of Paris for a party. What they got, instead, was a dead woman in the garden. Police described the decomposing body as "hunched in a dug-out area, her head against the ground, covered in branches and surrounded by wood stumps." She was dressed, but had no shoes - and a large diamond ring on. The investigation into her identity is ongoing.

  (#14) The Victims

  As repeat users of AirBNB, Maria and her sister knew to be careful when it came to reading comments on the site and treading lightly when choosing a host. When they needed a quick 3-day place to stay, they used AirBNB, though, and were a little less strict about paying attention to the comments. They regretted it. Their host, Leslie (a man), got drunk, and stood over them as they were sleeping. Fortunately, they got out before anything too horrible happened.

  (#12) The Poser

  Sometimes the guests aren't always to blame. One person had an AirBNB horror story come to life while they were staying at a Berlin rental. There was a knock on the door, and when the renter opened it, the REAL owner of the apartment was standing there, with the paperwork to prove it his ownership. Talk about awkward. But, at least he let the renter stay out the remainder of this trip.

  (#13) The Extortionist

  After one renter booked his place and paid 50% of the payment, he was told that the rates were actually triple the amount, and there was nothing AirBNB could do. Although the date and price had already been agreed upon, and the first payment was made, the host told the guest that they could either pay the triple amount or they would cancel the trip.

  (#11) The Party Pooper

  Rachel Bassini had one hell of a AirBNB horror story to tell after she came home to her NYC East Village apartment to find it completely trashed. But not just "trashed" in the after-party kind of way that involves empty solo cups and beer bottles – "Trashed" in the way that includes condoms and human feces covering her bathroom and furniture. Fortunately, AirBNB paid for the damages.

  (#7) The Shining

  Not all AirBNB horror stories stop at people taking things. In Troy Dayton's case, although his birth certificate and computer were stolen, there were also a number of small gifts his house guests had left behind for him: such as several meth pipes strewn about and the seeming reenactment of The Shining scene in which Jack Nicholson's character goes HAM on the bathroom door – only these ax marks were left on Troy's closet door.
