Chilling moment masked knifeman seen wandering into sleeping dad’s living room while his family were upstairs
THIS is the chilling moment a masked knifeman enters a dad’s home as he napped on his sofa and his family were sleeping upstairs.
Footage shows Jason Skilling, 53, in his living room, when a man in a balaclava enters and walks around wielding a blade.
Jason’s wife Adele, 56, was sleeping in another room at the time.
The terrifying video shows the intruder walk around the room and look over at Jason, before noticing the camera.
Ashleigh Jones, Adele’s daughter, said: “My mum had checked the cameras that they have in the house to watch their pets while they are out.
“She had seen a guy walking around the front room with a massive knife, whilst my stepdad was asleep on the chair.
“It is really scary, my mum is really upset by it.
“She keeps thinking, what if we did wake up.”

The couple, who live in Chadderton, Greater Manchester, have understandably upped the security at their home since the scare.
Ashleigh, 33, added: “They are checking the cameras all the time and making sure everything is working.
“When they lock up at night, my mum is making sure that everything is locked up when she goes to bed.
“My six-year-old son is terrified, he keeps mentioning it and calling the guy a serial killer, because he has a knife.”

She added by that living in Britain is “so dangerous now – you are not safe in your own home”.
The family do not believe the man took anything, just that he wandered around their home and then left.
