<div><p>Melanie Agnew Simpson stopped by her father's house one fine spring day. She was used to visiting 75-year-old John Douglas Agnew and didn't bother phoning ahead to make sure he was home. When she got to the door she saw something strange.</p><p>A handwritten note on the door told visitors to go away:</p><p>"Not feeling well. Do not knock. Do not ring the doorbell."</p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/04/douglasagnew--wfmy.jpg" title="Agnew" alt="Agnew" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite>WFNY</cite></figcaption></figure></div><p>That alone would have been strange, but what gave Simpson chills was a detail anyone else would have missed. That was not her father's handwriting.</p><p>Simpson tried the door anyway and found it locked. There was no answer when she knocked. Uneasy, she went home to try calling her dad. When he still didn't answer, she made a plan.</p><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><p>The next day she returned to her dad's house with a private locksmith. </p><p>According to police documents the locksmith entered the house and immediately noticed a big pool of blood on the kitchen floor. That's when the police were called.</p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/04/timberland-drive---redfin.jpg" srcset="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/04/timberland-drive---redfin_GH_content_550px.jpg 550w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/04/timberland-drive---redfin_GH_content_650px.jpg 650w" sizes="89vw" title="Timberline Drive" alt="Timberline Drive" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite>Redfin</cite></figcaption></figure></div><p>Officers searched the house and made a disturbing find.</p><p>A black duffel bag with human body parts was found on the floor of the kitchen.
