On May 31st, 2014, emergency dispatchers in Waukesha, Wisconsin received a rather chilling 911 call. A cyclist named Greg Steinberg had discovered the body of a 12 year old girl on the side of the road. This girl’s name was Payton “Bella” Leutner, and she somehow crawled out of the nearby woods after being viscously stabbed 19 times. She had been left for dead.   Bella’s two “best” friends, Anissa Weir (12), and Morgan Geyser (also 12) had attempted to sacrifice her to a boogeyman known as  “The Slenderman”.  Join us this week as Gage tells us the terrifying true story of two 12 year old girls who almost slaughtered their classmate in order to appease Slenderman. Let us know what you think, and as always, thanks for listening!
