The movie star Drew Barrymore recently shared a chilling experience from a first date that could easily be mistaken for a scene from a horror movie. During a segment on her talk show, Barrymore recounted how she felt a sense of imminent danger when visiting a man’s apartment for the first time.
The date took a disturbing turn when they discovered a major remodeling project in the apartment. Barrymore’s interest in interior design led her to explore the basement, where she stumbled upon a roll of transparent plastic that set off alarm bells in her mind. Feeling a wave of panic, she quickly decided to leave the premises.
During the episode, Barrymore candidly confessed to the man that she had feared for her safety, exclaiming, “‘I was really afraid you were going to murder me.'” Her co-host playfully scolded her for not recognizing the warning signs typical of a horror film, given her previous role in the iconic horror movie “Scream.”
Despite the initial scare, the incident surprisingly strengthened the bond between Barrymore and her date, leading to a lasting friendship filled with inside jokes about the memorable evening. The actress’s openness about her fears proved to be a moment of connection that resonated with both parties.
In a separate segment on her show, Barrymore also shared a hilarious mishap involving a personal list of past relationships that accidentally fell into the hands of actor Danny DeVito. The comedic incident added a lighthearted touch to an otherwise embarrassing situation.
DeVito, in good spirits, assured viewers that he had never come across the list and jokingly hinted at some of the names mentioned. Barrymore, appreciative of his discretion, thanked DeVito for keeping her secret safe. The amusing anecdote provided a humorous contrast to the tension-filled first date story, showcasing Barrymore’s ability to share both terrifying and amusing moments from her personal life.
