STALKING SAMANTHA: 13 YEARS OF TERROR: COMPLETE DOCUSERIES (HULU ORIGINAL)

For over a decade, Samantha Stites was stalked by Christopher Thomas, sometimes from the shadows, sometimes in plain sight. In the fall of 2022, his obsession took a terrifying turn. Christopher entered Samantha's home, kidnapped her, and brought her to a soundproof bunker he had secretly built inside a storage unit near her Michigan home, where he chained her up and held her captive. Alone and cut off from the outside world, Samantha was forced to rely on her instincts and strength to survive, and escape. In this gripping three-part docuseries, Samantha shares her story in her own words for the first time. The series features chilling police interview footage, surveillance from the storage unit, and disturbing images and videos recovered from Christopher's phone. "Stalking Samantha: 13 Years of Terror" is produced by Bigger Bang for ABC News Studios.
