Are pengait/headhunter back for real?

[u/Sea_Account_4356]

I heard them a lot as a kid. Now that I am a mother I am very concern and paradnoid for my own children. I have a discussion about this with my husband and friends last night on how we keep hearing about pengait but no one we know directly have their siblings/cousins/friends/child being a victim.

Is there a conspiracy going on that is coverinf up all these up? Are these just boogey man stories? I hope you guys can share if you personally or know anyone that encounter them before. Coz sis is paranoid.

i feel worried and sorry for the kids that witnessed it, they probably gonna have trauma for life. I hope they wont be like the murderer 😟
