Popular schoolgirl dies in ’emo sucide cult’<\/h1>\n

By Richard Alleyne<\/p>\n

A popular and fun-loving schoolgirl killed herself after becoming involved in a self-harming youth cult which glamorises death, an inquest has heard.<\/h2>\n

\"Hannah<\/p>\n

Hannah Bond, 13, hanged herself from a bunk bed in her bedroom with a tie believing her death would impress fellow followers of the \u201cemo\u201d movement, it was said.<\/p>\n

The teenager, who left a suicide note and used the nickname \u201cLiving Disaster\u201d, committed suicide after flippantly telling her parents, \u201cI want to kill myself\u201d, when she returned late from a friend\u2019s house.<\/p>\n

They dismissed the comment and said \u201cdon\u2019t be silly\u201d but an hour later found her suspended an inch from the floor.<\/p>\n

They dialled 999 and paramedics battled for over an hour to save her but she had lost consciousness and died.<\/p>\n

Roger Sykes, the coroner who recorded a verdict of suicide, found aspects of the youth movement, which began in America, \u201cvery disturbing\u201d.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cA girl of 13 years old has taken her own life for no reason that by anyone could be found to be justifiable.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a terrible and tragic explanation to what happened. It is not glamorous, just simply a tragic loss of such a young life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maidstone Coroners\u2019 Court heard that Hannah, of East Peckham, Kent, had lived a double life, outwardly a bright fun-loving family-orientated schoolgirl, but inwardly a devotee of \u201cemo\u201d which stands for emotional.<\/p>\n

She had secretly chatted to \u201cemo\u201d followers online all over the world, talking about death and the glamorisation of hanging and speaking about \u201cthe black parade\u201d – a place where \u201cemos\u201d believe they go after they die.<\/p>\n
