In a rather unusual and eerie twist, a man from the UK named Derek turned to Tinder in search of love after the heartbreaking loss of his wife to cancer two years ago. Little did he know that this journey would take an unexpected turn.
As Derek was casually swiping left and right through Tinder profiles, he stumbled upon a profile bearing a shocking resemblance to his late wife. The profile had no accompanying bio or introduction, but it featured three photos of her, including one taken in front of the Statue of Liberty. What perplexed Derek was that his wife had never visited New York City.
Intrigued and startled by this unusual discovery, Derek decided to swipe right, matching with the mysterious profile. He waited with bated breath for answers, but there was no immediate response. The minutes turned into hours, and Derek found himself unable to sleep, plagued by questions.
Two days later, at the eerie hour of 3:33 am, Derek received a notification. He had matched with his late wife. His emotions ranged from confusion to shock, and he wasted no time bombarding the profile with messages. He typed frantically, questioning the identity behind the profile and the source of the images of his deceased wife, expressing his grief and anger.
However, the profile remained silent for several hours, leaving Derek in a state of anxious anticipation. Then, at midnight, a chilling message arrived. It claimed to be from his late wife, expressing her longing and remorse. She even asked if he was home and requested to be let in.
Derek was overwhelmed with fear and disbelief. His wife had passed away naturally, and the idea of communicating with her through a dating app was unfathomable. According to Derek, he heard the house’s front door close after the conversation, prompting him to lay down on the bed in fear. He then received another message, referring to him by the nickname “Derry,” a name only his wife used. Terrified, Derek expressed love for his late wife and the need to move on. Despite sensing someone outside, he found no one when he opened the door and discovered that Alison’s profile had vanished from Tinder, leaving him baffled.
This extraordinary and eerie encounter led Derek to question the boundaries of reality and technology. He recounted his experience on the Ghost Huns podcast, emphasizing that he had no logical explanation for how such a supernatural interaction could occur in the digital realm.
While the tale is undeniably intriguing, there is no scientific evidence to support the existence of ghosts or their ability to create profiles on dating apps. It is more plausible that someone, possibly familiar with Derek, orchestrated an elaborate and eerie prank, especially given the proximity to Halloween. In any case, one thing remains clear – the deceased do not typically seek romantic encounters on Tinder.
