    She can survive 19 stab wounds, and I can't even survive a sharp pencil poke.

    Poor girl, nobody deserves to go through that horrid experience

    School shootings, murdering classmates, stabbing friend for a fictional monster, kids are becoming crazier and even more violent. I don't really think the internet is to blame, but it plays a role no doubt. It sickens and scares me what kids are capable of now. When I was 12 I'd cry at the sight of my friends accidentally hurting themselves and bleeding.

    well at least the victum can say that she survived getting stabed 19 times, atomatic badass in my opinion

    This is just terrible. I'm glad Payton is okay. The one girl knew exactly what she was doing. You can tell Blyt
  • At school this boy was saying he was friends with slenderman and he tells him to do stuff....And when I tell him that my mom's ancestors were royalty he said I was crazy......

  • I wanna pray for her. Then i realize it was made so long ago. Still gunna pray

    I am soooo glad that she is alive and well! And those kittens she’s holding are absolutely adorable. After everything that she has been through, I truly believe that she will be blessed for the rest of her life. It’s obviously a miracle that she is still with us. ❤️

    I hope slenderman pops up in their room at night

    Is no one going to talk about how much of a hero that man is . She was about to die and he was able to get someone to come , and comfort her .

    They should be tried as an adult. Manslaughter or murder from fit of rage when young can be seen different on certain circumstances. But luring someone into the woods, knowing about sacrifice/murder, and stabbing 19 times. Thats definitely premeditated adult act.
  • All of my respect goes to that man who saw her. And my heart goes out to this family. This case is 4 years old, but it still breaks my heart.
