The streamer Beddle told her viewers about her stalker, who did everything to find out where she lived. Her real-life Twitch streams attracted the stalker’s attention.
Who is the streamer?
- Beddle is considered one of the smaller streamers on the Twitch platform and usually captivates around 200 viewers with her broadcasts. However, at peak times, over 1,600 people were watching.
- Furthermore, Beddle is an official Twitch partner and has over 19,000 followers.
- Mainly, the streamer is in the Just Chatting category and chats with her audience. This was also the case in a past stream, where she spoke about her creepy stalker – don’t worry, Beddle is doing well and has moved.
Stalker follows signs: “I know where you live”
What did Beddle report? She talked about her past IRL streams. In one stream, she had apparently had a bit to drink and was walking through the streets. Street signs and license plates were visible during the stream.
There were street signs everywhere, someone was following the signs and sent me a private message: “I know where you live.” I didn’t reply to that, and he sent me [another private message where he described] how he followed other streamers in the same way.

But that wasn’t all the creepy stalker revealed to her. Because if a streamer did not want to show which floor they lived on, the stalker employed a trick: He counted the steps the streamer took down to find out exactly that.
Many female streamers have had stalking problems
Beddle is not the only one: In the past, well-known female streamers have reported stalking incidents and viewers who followed them.
So Pokimane suddenly had a fan at her house because he thought they were friends. Why? Just because Pokimane thanked him for a donation.
Streamer Valkyrae also spoke about various incidents of stalkers and other disgusting things she had to face as an internet celebrity. A stalker created hundreds of accounts and kept messaging her on Twitter, which she repeatedly blocked.
The streamer SweetAnita even had a stalker who followed her smiling with a kitchen knife, stalked her to her home, and waited for her in front of her house.
The police often do nothing in such cases because no “active” crime has occurred yet. Different was the case with the Twitch streamer Tricisabirdy, where a fan broke into her house to “save his princess”.
Once you reveal anything about yourself and even share details about your place of residence, you run the risk of people making it their mission to leak addresses and other information – especially when you are a well-known personality on the internet.
