On the 31 of December 1999 10 year old Krystal Surles woke up to find a man standing in her room. She watched in horror as he killed her friend Katy, slit her own throat and then walked out. 

Somehow Krystal survived and went on to testify against her attacker; he turned out to be one of America’s most prolific serial killers.
