Teen obsessed with Slender Man set fire to house while family slept

Florida – A teenage girl who allegedly torched her family’s home with her mom and brother asleep inside, was obsessed with the online fictional character Slender Man.

Lily Marie Hartwell, 14, had been reading an ebook, “Soul Eater,” about killing people, and about Slender Man, a gaunt, abnormally tall figure who features in one of the Internet’s most terrifying stories, before she reportedly set fire to her home in the city of Port Richey, Florida.

The girl’s mother and her 9-year-old brother were able to escape the fire after being awakened by a smoke alarm. Hartwell’s mother, realizing her daughter was not outside, went back into the blazing home but was beaten back by the heat, Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco said, Suncoast News reported.

Firemen also went into the burning house three times to search for the girl before deciding she was not inside. More
