"Judge Denies Release for 'Slender Man' Stabber from Psychiatric Hospital"
Morgan Geyser, who stabbed her sixth-grade classmate in 2014 as a sacrifice to the fictional Slender Man character, has been denied conditional release from the Winnebago Mental Health Institute. Despite claiming to have faked her psychotic symptoms, experts testified that it was too soon for her release, citing concerns about her insight into her mental health condition. Geyser, along with her accomplice Anissa Weier, were both committed to the psychiatric facility after the attack, with Weier being granted conditional release in 2021.
