Friends Like These

Friends Like These

When Skylar Neese wasn’t posting photos of her with two best friends, she was posting cryptic messages about mean girls. One night in 2012, Skylar slipped out of her bedroom window, got into an awaiting car, and vanished. When the trail went cold, Shelia Eddy and Rachel Shoaf flooded social media with pleas for information on their friend’s disappearance. But Shelia and Rachel had their own secrets. And investigators learned that not everything among the girls was as it seemed.

The Hulu true crime documentary series “Friends Like These: The Murder of Skylar Neese,” recounts the crime that gripped West Virginia at the dawn of the social media age. The show combines interviews with friends, family and investigators with excerpts from the girls’ diaries and Twitter accounts to tell the story of how the crime came together and how it was solved.

OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "FRIENDS LIKE THESE" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
