Trust Gone Wrong: Slenderman

The murder of Skylar Neese is a tragic case from West Virginia that began with a disappearance and ended with a shocking confession. In July 2012, Skylar, a 16-year-old from Star City, West Virginia, left her home in the middle of the night with two friends and never returned.

For months, the case was treated as a missing persons investigation. Surveillance footage showed Skylar willingly getting into a car, and there were no immediate signs of foul play. But in January 2013, one of the girls involved confessed to authorities, revealing that Skylar had been taken to a remote area and fatally stabbed.
