S01E16: The Slenderman Stabbing (Payton Leutner)

from Dark Deeds Hosted by Dark Deeds

OG Release Date: 03/16/ 2020 On May 30, 2014, three twelve year old girls, Morgan Geyser, Anissa Weier, and Payton Leutner, decided to have a sleepover for Morgan’s birthday. The next morning, Anissa and Morgan tricked Payton into going with them to David’s park to bird watch and play hide-and-seek where the two girls attacked their friend, Payton, stabbing her 19 times. They believed if they didn’t kill her, Slenderman would kill their families, and if they did kill her, they could live with Slenderman in his mansion where they would move up in rank. Mental illness coupled with the ages of the girls made for a vicious attack that they blamed on their belief in Slenderman. OG Release Date: 03/16/ 2020 Sources: Oprah Mag (2019, October 25).
