A teenage girl was held captive in a storage container in the United States by a man who kidnapped her on her way home from school five years ago. She has finally spoken out about the horror she endured, Mail Online reported.
Abigail Hernandez, now 19, was abducted by Nathaniel Kibby, 39, as she walked home from school in New Hampshire back in October 2013.
The zombie apocalypse-obsessed abductor offered her a ride back home, to which she accepted as her feet were blistered from the boots she wore.
For nine months, he held her captive in a shipping container stashed on his rural property.

Kibby forced her to wear a shock collar which struck her every time she would yelled out.
The culprit raped her on several occasions during captivity.
In a television interview, Hernandez finally spoke out about the time she spent in captivity.
She revealed that her kidnapper, who is likely to spend the rest of his life behind bars, would not tell her his name and instead instructed her to call him "master".
The young woman also explained how he started using the dog collar on her.
"He said, you know, I'm thinking of finding something a little more humane for you to keep you quiet".
'He said, "I'm thinking of a shock collar. You know, that like dogs wear."
"I remember he put it on me. And he told me, okay, try and scream".
"I just slowly started to raise my voice. And then, it shocked me. So, he's like, "Okay, now you know what it feels like,"' she said.
In July 2014, Kibby suddenly decided to let the teenager go.

It took her a week before she revealed to her family and law enforcement agencies who he was because she was so afraid of him.
She knew his name because she had seen it written on a cook book inside the home.
Kibby was arrested at his home which was 30 miles north of where he took Abigail.
