For more than a decade, Samantha Stites endured relentless stalking at the hands of Christopher Thomas. What began as a college friendship in 2011 quickly turned into a years-long nightmare of harassment, tracking, and fear. In October 2022, that nightmare escalated when Christopher kidnapped Samantha and her dog, holding her in a soundproof bunker he had built near her Michigan home. Samantha shares her story publicly for the first time as part of the three-part docuseries Stalking Samantha: 13 Years of Terror on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+. Samantha speaks with Kate about the fear, resilience, and strategies she used to survive.
