Twilight fan tragically dies in accident at Comic Con

July 10, 2012 Posted by Lindsay in Twilight

It’s a very very sad day for Twilight fans as one of our own was struck by a car and killed while crossing the street outside of Hall H at Comic Con this morning in San Diego. The woman was unconscious as a result of the hit, and was taken to the nearby hospital where she was pronounced dead. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the woman, identified as Twitter user @Mad4Hugh named Gisela, her family and friends.

See various updates at Twilight Examiner who has been compiling information, including details about a petition for a moment of silence during the Breaking Dawn Part 2 panel on Thursday.

And to the rest of the TWilight fans (and everyone else) at Comic Con this week, please BE SAFE!

Who in the world would say such a horrible thing about someone they don't even know and wasn't doing anything that would hurt someone. Just living life and doing something she obviously enjoyed. That person must truely be a sociopath type personality to say something that unfeeling.

A moment of silence for that poor lady. And I hope that the person who hit her should feel really bad about what he or she has done

I don't know all the details, but the article stated that she was running crossing the road and tried to stop herself when she saw the car, but tripped and fell into the car as it was passing. It was an older couple, it said they were devastated. I can't even imagine how horrible it is for all involved.

You know that maybe she (Tina) is just seeking attention, and you just gave her as much as possible. In this world it is sometimes much better to ignore all those people that say stupid stuff.

To the family!!!!! Prayers and blessings to you. Gisela's family just needs to ignore people like Tina they are useless and cold hearted. Keep your heads up Gisela is going to be well taking care of by our Lord no doubt about that. At least she's not in any pain from the incident. God Bless!!!! As for Tina you just know that if it was you that was killed that they wouldnt even bother cause you are heartless and ruthless woman.
