Here's one from the family lore files: before my parents married, mom lived and worked in Milwaukee. She and a friend, also from the area, had a long weekend and decided to drive home. This was in the early 1950s when people were mysteriously disappearing into Plainfield Wisconsin area. Because of their work shifts, they did not get to leave Milwaukee till sometime well after midnight. As they were pulling through Plainfield at 5 AM they saw a local café opening up and thought coffee and a doughnut might make a good breakfast. As they ate, there was an older small man eating at the counter. When they got up to leave he was gone. When they got their car, he comes out of nowhere asking for a ride. Not even caring which way they were going. This creeped them out, they refused offer him a ride, got in the car and took off. They hadn't seen him in the street and surmised that he had been hiding in a recessed doorway. Fast forward several years. Mom and dad were married and so was her friend. One evening a friend comes over an absolute panic with the newspaper. It had the story of a man named Ed Giens, from the Plainfield area who had been caught cannibalizing people. The story included a photograph, it was the same man who I tried to get a ride from the two of them in Plainfield years earlier.
