Earlier in the week, an English Twitter user going by the handle dinner_guest freaked out the UK by posting mysterious tweets which seemed to suggest that he was torturing and murdering people in his Brighton home.

Like, for example, "The noise was bad this time, I got messy, to much haste to get what I wanted. Must by (sic) waterproof tape."

Okay, so it turns out it was just a bored actor, who came clean when, enough being enough, he changed his account description to read, "A fictional character born out of an artists mind. A meme experiment & analysis."

At the very least, he turned social media into sociopath media. Or at least socially awkward media.

The Next Web tracked him down for a brief e-mail interview.
