“But on the birthday party, she wanted to go to bed.” “Something was strange because at all of our past sleepovers, always wanted to stay up all night because she could never do that at home,” Leutner. The three girls had roller-skated together and enjoyed frozen yogurt before their slumber party - but Leutner felt something was amiss that night. Leutner said she had no clue what the two girls had plotted when she arrived to Geyser’s 12th birthday party. I feel like she was jealous that Morgan was friends with me and her.” “I just hung out with her because I knew that Morgan really loved her as a friend. “I didn’t like at all,” Leutner told Muir. She said she considered ending the friendship with Geyser, whose friendship with Weier was blossoming, but decided to stick it out despite her fixation with “Slender Man.” I saw the change from fifth to sixth grade when she met Anissa.” “But she really liked it and thought it was real. “I told that it scared me and that I didn’t like it,” Leutner said. I was supportive because I thought that’s what she liked.”Įventually, though, Geyser’s fanciful stories about the tall, faceless creature who could use tendrils growing from his back began to creep her out, so she asked her mom, Stacie Leutner, whether “Slender Man” was real. It kind of frightened me a little bit,” Leutner said. In the sixth grade, Geyser became friends with Weier and began talking to Leutner about “Slender Man,” she said. Geyser seemed like a happy girl, albeit “a little lonely,” while they were friends and they enjoyed sleepovers together, playing outside and drawing - “all the things that kids do,” Leutner said about her best friend.īut “everything went downhill” at one point, she said. “She was sitting all by herself and I didn’t think anyone should have to sit by themselves,” Leutner recounted about the time she befriended the girl in fourth grade. She said she had been a hopeful and positive person before that fateful day - and that she tried to see the good in people, including Geyser, who had struggled to make friends. “I feel like it’s time for people to see my side rather than everyone else’s,” Leutner told ABC as she works to rebuild her shattered life. The two girls are now serving a combined 65 years in a mental hospital for the brutal stabbing, which missed Leutner’s heart by just a fraction of an inch. Leutner survived the vicious attack and managed to crawl to a path, where a bicyclist found her. Geyser stabbed Leutner a total of 19 times with a steak knife while Weier egged her on, according to investigators. Leutner was 12 when deranged schoolmates Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier lured her into woods in Waukesh on May 31, 2014, after hatching a twisted plan to kill their friend to appease the online fictional character - a shadowy figure who stalks children. They will probably go away and fade eventually,” Payton Leutner, 17, told ABC’s David Muir in a “20/20″ episode airing Friday. The Wisconsin girl stabbed 19 times by her best friend and another sixth-grade classmate to please fictional bogeyman “Slender Man” has spoken publicly for the first time since the shocking 2014 crime, saying she has “come to accept” all of her scars.

Geyser, who did the actual stabbing, is scheduled to go on trial next month. Jurors will determine whether Weier was mentally ill and therefore not criminally responsible at the time. Leutner told Fisher her mother tried to assure her it was all fiction, but she also told the detective that she still was uncertain and wanted to believe Geyser even after she stabbed her, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported. Leutner became so concerned about the stories Geyser was telling her that she asked her mother if they were real, Waukesha Police Detective Shelly Fisher said.
