The latest one that dazzled everybody is actually insane! The Blue Whale challenge emerged from Russia and seems to be taking over the world!

According to The Sun, Essex Police informed a school in Basildon about the Blue Whale challenge and the headteacher wrote to parents about it.

The letter, sent by Woodlands School in Basildon was seen by Essex Live and read: “We have discovered a game through the police that we feel you should be aware of.

“It is called The Blue Whale Game and is played via many social media platforms.”

Devon and Cornwall Police PCSO Kirsty Down tweeted: “Whoever created this horrible game is sick!”

Police are said to be probing a number of suicides across Russia which they fear are linked to the online craze.

But as of yet the Blue Whale game has not been proven to be directly responsible for any deaths.

Investigative newspaper Novaya Gazeta reported: “We have counted 130 suicides of children that took place between November 2015 to April 2016.

“Almost all these children were members of the same internet groups and lived in good, happy families.”

Two schoolgirls Yulia Konstantinova, 15, and Veronika Volkova, 16, fell to their deaths from the roof of a 14-storey apartment block.

Another unnamed 15-year-old girl was also critically injured after falling onto snowy ground from a fifth floor flat in the city of Krasnoyarsk, also Siberia. Two days earlier, a 14-year-old girl from Chita was reported to have thrown herself under a commuter train.

A 13-year-old boy was also saved from killing himself after he was spotted perching on the edge of a roof in Lviv, Ukraine.

In all cases, state investigators are probing whether the controversial social media suicide game had influenced the girls to take their own lives.

Yulia left a note saying “End” on her social media page after she posted a picture of a big blue whale.

A family raced to stop a 15-year-old girl from killing herself, with the young girl reportedly now recovering in a hospital in Barcelona.

Cops are said to have launched a probe into the sick craze sweeping Russia – the suicide capital of the world.

It was reported that two teenage boys were detained by police at the scene after allegedly filming the tragic double suicide of Yulia and Veronika.

The Russian Investigative Committee has opened a probe on “incitement to suicide” regarding the pair’s death.

In Krasnoyarsk, law enforcement recently opened three criminal cases of incitement to suicide involving schoolgirls via the groups on social media.

In all three cases, the teenagers were rescued.

One local school director told police he had received an anonymous call saying a student had joined a “group of death” and planned soon to kill herself.

The police identified the girl who explained that she had joined a “game” and had been given “tasks” by the group administrator.

She did not obey the commands, which involved self-harm, but there are fears that others did.
