'How I Met Your Mother' star Alyson Hannigan deals with lunatic stalker

"How I Met Your Mother" star Alyson Hannigan is being cyberstalked by a crazed man.

The actress has obtained a restraining order against a man she claims is mentally unstable and who threatened to kill her, TMZ reports.

Hannigan filed a request for a restraining order in L.A. County Superior Court, claiming John Hobbs was posting threatening messages on Facebook, MySpace, and Alyson's website.

TMZ reports that Hannigan claims Hobbs is "mentally unstable and was recently discharged from a mental hospital."

Hobbs allegedly threatens rape by posting a message online that reads, "Lets see How can I get myself in troble today [sic]. If I go with what I've been acussed of Most of my Life, I suppose I should start with being a rapist, so any nice girls out there want to get raped [sic]?"

TMZ reports that there will be a hearing on March 6th to decide if a restraining order will be made permanent.

I just saw this in another article which linked his FB. He's insane. I hope this is treated seriously before she's hurt. From his FB:

"When will things just go forward:
Dear Alyson, I watched the episode of HIMYM tonight. "PS I Love You" it was a great show. It made me think alittle bit, about Life in gerenal and directly too. I guess I'm one guy that could be ethier of those "D" words depending on how you precieve it today. However, let me frist say It was "Destinty" that I met you when I did at such a young age. Neither of us are evil. Been through enough to know that by now. No, I don't claim to be Alexis. However Alyson, he's not me ethier. He did and can "Take it All", I still can like and "Love it All". I know Life hasn't been fair with you at times, It hasn't been fair with me ethier, to be honest. One thing I know in my "heart of heart" it's the right thing to do, go forward and talk in person (you and me) for real, not fake. "UP" there Alyson, there is no lie, act or even "unreal". Today you still have your All or Nothing thing don't you? I wish you could see it my way, and choose "my all" a day of peace and talk. But you talk to more poeple in a course of an hour than I talk to in a week. So, naturally you want it your way. So, I guess I have to be ready to marry you myself before you can talk to me in person right? Well dear, I've been ready to do that since you were "knee high to a grasshopper? it still doesn't mean it happens, also it still doesn't mean it don't. Master Yoda said it right too, "hard to read future is, always feelings is future". But I do like and love you as you live life, that's my feelings to you."

"If only it was just 15 years right Aly? well to tell you the truth it started for me in 1971, three years before you were born. It started "UP" there and it will end "UP" there too. I'm still not evil anymore than you are."

And of course this winner (in reference to a photo of her):

"Lily, looking at that pole, makes me wonder is she thinking of the "Big winers in her mouth. Well Lily i have one for you.. "

That sounds like someone who used to post regularly, and in the same vein, on the Alyson Hannigan Appreciation Society message board. (Example: http://www.network23.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2805.) He was eventually banned there.

Oh yeah, that sounds like him alright! His level of obsession sounds highly dangerous. I can't imagine how terrifying it must be to have someone so obviously out of touch with reality obsessed with you. I had a peeping tom years ago, and only for a few months before he got caught, but I became so paranoid I can't even have my curtains open anymore without worrying that someone's watching me.

On Facebook's Alyson Hannigan fan page (https://www.facebook.com/AlysonHanniganFanPage), the alleged stalker, John Hobbs, actually commented on a post about his own restraining order. Perhaps the order preventing him from posting about Ms Hannigan hasn't yet sunk in?

If I go with what I've been acussed of Most of my Life, I suppose I should start with being a rapist, so any nice girls out there want to get raped

How detached from reality have you be to ask such a riddiculous question.

Are you sure this isn't her local neighborhood paparazzi who frequently snaps HQ candid shots of Alyson, Alexis, & Satyana?

On March 6, 2013 the restraining order was extended to last for an additional four years.
