BOSTON, MA (KTRK) -- A creepy criminal is breaking into homes in Boston and tickling people. but his victim's aren't laughing.



The so called "tickler" hit several homes in Boston and targeted at least three homes near the city of Brighton on Tuesday. His best cover is the element of surprise.



All of the break-ins happen overnight and people are so freaked out that no one has gotten a good look at him.



"My roommate woke up screaming and there's a man in his room and he had tickled his foot and was crouching by his bed," said David Master, whose roommate was a tickle victim.



All of the tickler's victims have been men. His victims say he doesn't carry a weapon and never steals from any of their apartments.
