A former neighbour of Khalid Masood, the man named by police as the attacker, says she is "sickened" to think about what happened.
The Luton resident remembers him wearing leisure wear and playing with his two children in the garden.
Another former neighbour, a Polish woman, tells the BBC that he was like a "shadow".
She describes him as a "large man with a beard" who walked around late at night, often in black clothes and a black beanie hat.
Masood, 52, most recently lived in the West Midlands but previously lived in Luton.

More than 12,000 people donated to the JustGiving , external website, which was set up by the Metropolitan Police Federation following PC Palmer's death on Wednesday.

BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner says Khalid Masood, the man identified as the attacker, was a "strange character".
He told BBC News that locals described him as "the Vampire" because he usually went out at night and dressed in black.
Our correspondent said it is unlikely Masood, 52, acted alone.
"There's no such thing as a lone wolf attack," he said.
Three people were killed, along with the assailant, in Wednesday's attack.
Tributes have poured in for the victims: PC Keith Palmer, Kurt Cochran and Aysha Frade.
Around 40 people were also injured, of whom 29 needed hospital treatment.
A massive police operation is under way after Wednesday's terror attack in Westminster, in which the attacker and three other people, including a police officer, died.
These are the latest developments:
Prime Minister Theresa May has visited victims of the terror attack as they recover in hospital.
She spent around 40 minutes at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, speaking with the injured and medical staff.
Many of those hurt on Westminster Bridge were also taken to St Thomas' Hospital, which faces the Palace of Westminster across the River Thames.

"I moved here 40 years ago from the United States and I'm still constantly amazed by this city - the diversity, the richness, the resilience.
"When I saw this vigil was on I said 'I need to be there and be with good people'.
"When you're in the heart of darkness that's what you need to do."
