Story

In a shocking incident, a couple has recounted their terrifying experience of being attacked by their Airbnb host, identified as Jan, while staying at a property advertised as "private and peaceful." The couple, who shared their story on TikTok, had initially chosen the rental based on positive reviews but soon found themselves in a nightmarish situation. Valm described Jan's behavior as increasingly strange, raising concerns about their safety. The couple's ordeal escalated when Jan allegedly attempted to kill them with a double-edged knife, injuring a worker in the process. Valm recounted how Jan frequently interrupted their beach relaxation, making bizarre comments, including claims that the CIA was watching him. The host's erratic behavior prompted alarm bells for the couple, who felt increasingly uncomfortable during their stay. On the first day, Jan's aggression became apparent when he dropped a wine glass and began shouting at the couple to leave. In a shocking turn of events, he brandished a double-edged sword and attacked Valm's boyfriend, slicing his hand. The couple managed to escape, running towards the road as Jan pursued them, further escalating the chaos. Images shared by the couple show Jan being apprehended by police after they called for help. The incident has raised serious concerns about safety in short-term rentals, highlighting the potential risks associated with trusting hosts in private accommodations.
