Or surprised to find giant wads of hair in their wash. Or even something sinister in the dryer. And that\u2019s probably what the weird flinching lady in the dirty nightdress is counting on. Maybe this guy won\u2019t notice her. Maybe she seems less harmless than last week\u2019s faceless apparition and the red satin Fundies that turned his towels pink. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s all sorts of misdirection going on here, and in the laundromat, there\u2019s no one to hear you scream.
