This was going to be my suggestion!! People like that do these things to get some sort of reaction out of you. If you don't give him the satisfaction of a reaction, he'll probably lose interest eventually.

Another suggestion is to place protection wards around your home. Do it with a smile and kindness - that should throw off his asshole vibes. If you know any witches... definitely recruit 🫶🏻

The man in the black suit sounds like Slender Man.

Also, look up dissociative fugue. WebMD says, "Dissociative fugue, formerly called psychogenic fugue, is one of a group of conditions called dissociative disorders. The word fugue comes from the Latin word for "flight." People with dissociative fugue temporarily lose their sense of personal identity and impulsively wander or travel away from their homes or places of work. They often become confused about who they are and might even create new identities...Symptoms of dissociative fugue might include the following:

  • Sudden and unplanned travel away from home
  • Inability to recall past events or important information from the person's life
  • Confusion or loss of memory about their identity, possibly assuming a new identity to make up for the loss
  • Extreme distress and problems with daily functioning (due to the fugue episodes)

A fugue in progress often is difficult for others to recognize because the person's outward behavior appears normal. Symptoms of dissociative fugue might include the following:

Sudden and unplanned travel away from home

Inability to recall past events or important information from the person's life

Confusion or loss of memory about their identity, possibly assuming a new identity to make up for the loss

Extreme distress and problems with daily functioning (due to the fugue episodes)"

My husband jumpscares EVERYONE, including our 6 month old son! His version is tame compared to what your ex husband did. He doesn't hide around corners or anything like that (most of the time). He just waits until a suspenseful part of a scary movie, or even if we're not watching a movie, but if the room is silent and I'm concentrating on something, then he does this loud, deep "RAWR!". It gets me almost every time! It does get old and annoying, but at least he's not malicious about it, and sometimes it's still funny to me lol I hope you can find help getting rid of your ex husband! Contact a priest! Keep us updated and keep yourself and your son safe!
