A woman has claimed that she ‘slept three feet away from a dead body for eight weeks and had absolutely no idea’. 

Reagan Baylee took to TikTok and explained that it all started in May last year, while she was cooped up in a Los Angeles apartment during the pandemic.

In the viral clip, she recalled: “I was having headaches, I wasn’t really sleeping through the night, I was feeling nauseous a lot and honestly we all kind of rode it off as me just feeling a little lonely and going a little crazy during quarantine, just like everyone else was.

“It was really unlike me to not be able to sleep through the night so I thought this was really strange but again I just kind of wrote it off because I just thought I was really sad and depressed.”

However, the influencer began to question things when she noticed that her apartment was becoming infested with bugs and a smell of ‘dead fish’ lingered in the air.

Baylee continued: “Truthfully, my best description of this smell was kind of like a dead fish so I thought that maybe a bird had caught a fish but in retrospect is the most stupid thing ever because there’s no lakes anywhere near me.

“I started thinking maybe my neighbour who lived to the right of me had like, his dog had died or something had happened and I got really worried, but my manager told me she can’t just start knocking on neighbour’s doors and bothering them.

“But I had this really bad feeling that something was super wrong and the smell was getting really bad every time it was windy and I was really, really worried. But remember, it’s the middle of the pandemic and we had been home 24 hours a day, seven days a week so I think I had got kind of used to the smell.”

After finally getting her landlord to send out a maintenance man, cops were sent to the building where they claimed they found the ‘worst decomposed body’ they’d ever seen.

Baylee concluded: “Long story short, they said this was the worst decomposed body they had ever come across and they see a lot of decomposed bodies.

“I’m not going to go too into the specifics of it, especially for the privacy of the person, but let’s just say they were liquified and they were basically a skeleton at this point.

“All the symptoms my boyfriend and I were experiencing were simply because of the fumes and toxic that were releasing from the body and the natural gases that were making me extremely sick during pretty much all of quarantine.”
