When Derek and Maria Broaddus paid $1.3 million for their Westfield, New Jersey home in 2014, they imagined themselves raising their kids and growing old in the house.  But those plans began to go awry when they received a mysterious letter signed by a figure who called themselves “The Watcher.” This anonymous person — whose antics are the basis for Ryan Murphy’s new Netflix show of the same title — made menacing comments about the Broaddus’ new home, which they claimed to have monitored for years.
