Walking dead? Kenyan LADY’s chilling encounter with a ‘dead’ friend at Java stuns netizens (VIDEO)
Saturday, May 02, 2026 - A Kenyan woman has left netizens stunned after narrating a bizarre and unsettling experience that has since gone viral. In her video, she explains that she was at a Nairobi mall doing back‑to‑school shopping when she bumped into a long‑lost friend she hadn’t seen in over a year. The friend suggested that they catch up over coffee at Java House. As they waited for their order, the friend excused herself to use the restroom, but took unusually long. Concerned and pressed for time, the lady began sipping her coffee and decided to call her friend. To her shock, a man answered. Believing her friend’s phone had been stolen, she hung up, only for the man to call back. He introduced himself as her friend’s husband and dropped a bombshell, revealing that his wife had died in a road accident and was buried three months earlier. The revelation left her shaken, as she had just spent time with the very woman said to be deceased. She even checked her friend’s social media pages, confirming the death and burial. Disturbed, she asked a waitress if she had indeed been with someone at the café, and the waitress confirmed, describing the lady’s outfit in detail. She claims the chilling encounter has since haunted her, claiming to have been experiencing strange dreams and her blood pressure is elevated requiring medication. The video has sparked mixed reactions online with some netizens speculating her friend’s death may have been faked for insurance claims, while others dismiss the story as pure fabrication.

Despite her return to school, the two remained in contact through social media platforms including WhatsApp, Instagram, and TikTok. They planned to meet again last week on Saturday afternnon. However, Connie delayed, informing Tonny she was still at a salon and only became available later in the evening. The two eventually met in Hurlingham at around 10pm and spent several hours at an Ethiopian restaurant before leaving at approximately 3am. Tonny claims that on their way to Kaisa Gardens, Connie began behaving in a strange manner and mentioned that a doctor had told her she would die soon. Upon arrival, security officers reportedly assisted them due to her uncooperative state. Inside the apartment, there was no electricity. Tonny says he went to rest in the bedroom, leaving Connie in the sitting room, before hearing her repeatedly say, “Lawal bye.” He claims he found her sitting on a window ledge with one leg outside and managed to pull her back inside. A struggle ensued as he tried to remove her from the house. He contacted the Airbnb host, who alerted security guards. During this time, Connie is said to have expressed distress, claiming her family hated her and that she wanted to end her life. Security officers reportedly secured the window and briefly left to top up electricity tokens. Moments later, Tonny says Connie walked towards the bedroom. He again heard her voice and rushed in, allegedly finding her seated on the bedroom window in a similar position. He claims that before he could reach her, she leaned outward and fell. Tonny and security guards are said to have rushed downstairs immediately, with a video capturing the chaotic moments after the fall. He reportedly called for police and remained at the scene for over 40 minutes awaiting investigators.
