Mother begs people online for help after finding mysterious ‘coffee grounds’ in daughter’s bedroom

When we are doubtful about something, sure enough, most of us turn to the Internet to seek answers.

When a mom named Kelli Tarin spotted strange droppings at her daughter’s bedroom, she was left puzzled. As she had no idea what those droppings that kept appearing over and over again might be, she turned to the Facebook group Homemaking Tips and asked if anyone has ever seen anything similar.

She explained that she and her family moved into a new home in Texas and both she and her landlord turned to every pest control business they could think of, but no one was able to identify the droppings.

“Anyone know what this could be? I have found two piles of these. Only in my daughters room. I clean it almost every day. This Is something that happened QUICK,” she wrote alongside a photo of a pile of what she described as looking like “coffee grounds.”

Many were quick to share their theories. “I can’t really tell but I’m being so honest if there little ‘flying ants’ their a type of termites. I had them in my first house as an ‘adult’ and they would pop up and I’d vacuum them, and then they’d pop right back up,” someone wrote.

Another person suggested it could be “rat poop,” and a third suggested placing a camera in order to see where those droppings were coming from.

Kelli explained that she had revised all of the Internet users’ suggestions, and it wasn’t any of the potential pests as she went through the list, which included mice, roaches, and bats.

“We called TWO pest control companies yesterday. Literally BOTH of them said they have never seen anything like this. Ever,” she wrote. “If it were terminates, they said the droppings or whatever they leave behind is completely different. What’s left behind is literally crunchy. Almost seed like. It’s very strange.”

The mystery was finally solved when a comment under Kelli’s post caught her attention.

“I red [sic] a comment from someone that said their kids lavender bear busted opened and this was inside. Sure enough, when I picked up toys from here, there was a lavender blush [sic] bear in the pile.”

She was curious to take a peek inside her daughter’s bear through a hole she noticed. “I poured out the contents and these beads were inside!!!😂😂I have laughed for 30 mins. Imagine my relief.”

We are glad she has finally figured it all out and got rid of the strange droppings.

I Found a Girl Alone on a Dark Road – What I Saw When I Got Closer Will Haunt You

Driving alone on a foggy night, a mother sees a young girl in a torn dress, quiet and strangely familiar. As she drives closer, she notices the girl’s sad eyes, filled with secrets that might be best left unknown.

It was late, and the night seemed darker than ever. The fog hugged the car like a thick blanket, hiding everything beyond the headlights. I squinted ahead, holding the steering wheel tighter than usual.

“Just get home,” I whispered, rubbing my tired eyes. It had been a long day at work, and I couldn’t wait to crawl into bed.

I always avoided this road. I usually took the main highway, but tonight, I thought: A quick shortcut will save time.

Then, I noticed something in the distance. A shadow in the middle of the road. I slammed on the brakes, heart pounding. The outline was faint, but it was there in the mist.

“Please just be a tree or a mailbox,” I whispered, though I knew it wasn’t. As I drove closer, I realized it was a girl. She looked thin, and her white dress was in tatters.

A chill ran down my spine. Every instinct told me to turn back, but something held me there.

I cracked open the window, my voice shaky. “Are you okay?”

I stepped out of the car with a flashlight. The beam lit up her face, and I gasped, stumbling back. I knew that face. The pale skin, the wide eyes—it was my daughter.

“Emily?” I whispered, barely believing it. She looked at me, eyes empty and wide.

“Mommy?” Her voice was faint, like a distant echo.

Shock and relief overwhelmed me. It was Emily, my daughter who’d been missing for five years. She had vanished without a trace, and no one knew what had happened to her.

“Emily, oh my God… it’s you,” I stammered, stepping closer. “Are you hurt? Where have you been?”

She blinked slowly, her expression blank. “I… don’t know,” she murmured. Her voice was soft, like she hadn’t spoken in years.

I knelt in front of her, heart racing. “It’s okay, honey. It’s me. We’re going home now, alright?” I wrapped my coat around her thin shoulders and led her to the car. She sat silently in the passenger seat, staring out into the fog.

The drive home was quiet. I glanced over at her, but her face was blank, as if she were somewhere far away.

“Emily,” I asked gently, “do you remember anything? Anything at all?”

She didn’t look at me. “A room. It was dark. There was a man, but I can’t remember his face.”

My throat tightened. “You’re safe now, sweetheart. We’re going home.”

When we got home, she sat on the couch, looking around as if everything was unfamiliar. I asked if she remembered the place, but she only shrugged. Her voice was flat and empty.

“Mom,” she whispered, “I’m… cold.”

I wrapped a blanket around her, feeling her icy skin. The days that followed were tense. Emily was distant, barely speaking. The only time I heard her voice clearly was when she sang an old lullaby I used to sing to her. It felt strange because she shouldn’t have remembered it.

One day, I found her looking at old photo albums. Her fingers traced a picture of her father, Mark. He had died when she was a baby.

“Mom?” she said, confused. “I know him.”

I felt a chill. “That’s your dad, honey. I’ve told you about him.”

She shook her head slowly. “No, I know him from… the place.”

A cold wave of fear washed over me. Emily couldn’t remember Mark, but she knew someone who looked like him. It had to be his brother, Jake. They looked so alike, almost like twins.

I couldn’t ignore the feeling anymore. I needed answers.

The next morning, I drove to our old family cabin deep in the woods. It had been abandoned for years, but something felt off when I arrived. One of the windows was covered with a cloth. Why would someone do that?

I pushed the door open, dust swirling in the air. Everything was untouched except for a small room in the back. Inside, toys lay scattered, worn but well-loved. My heart sank. This was where Emily had been kept.

I called the police immediately. Hours later, Emily sat quietly with me as the officers searched the cabin. She clutched her blanket, looking small and sad.

“Mommy… I remember now,” she whispered. “It was Uncle Jake. He looked like Daddy, but different. He would bring food and hum that song.”

The police confirmed it that night. They found enough evidence to arrest Jake. He confessed, saying he had taken Emily to “protect” her, wanting her to rely on him. It was twisted and horrifying to realize he had been so close all this time.

When Emily heard the truth, she broke down, crying out the pain she had held inside for so long. I hugged her tightly, rocking her gently. “You’re safe now,” I whispered. “No one will take you away again.”

In the days that followed, Emily started to open up more. She would hum the lullaby at night, as if testing if it was safe to sing it again.

One evening, we sat together by the window. She leaned against me, and I softly hummed the lullaby like I used to. She looked up at me with a hint of peace in her eyes.

“I love you, Mommy,” she whispered.

Tears filled my eyes as I held her close. “I love you too, sweetheart. Forever.”
