Two 12 year old girls, Anissa Weier (pictured left) and Morgan Geyser (pictured right) lured their classmate, another 12 year old, into the woods last Saturday after a sleepover, where they stabbed the girl 19 times hoping to kill her so they could join the cult of the 'Slender Man' after reading about him on the internet. Thing is; 'Slender Man doesn't exist. It's a mythological horror creature that was created by a website in 2009. The gholish child killer has since become a viral sensation.
But the little girls believed so much in it they planned their friends murder for months. Fortunately the girl didn't die but Morgan and Anissa are being tried as adults and face 65 years in prison.
