Summer Gregg, 18, even considered leaping out of an eighth-floor window to escape her abusers who repeatedly beat and slapped her in the vile attack.
Sadistic trio Jay Blades, 20, James Canning, 20, and 21-year-old Amy Gaines filmed as they spat at Summer and forced her to act like a dog at the flat in Doncaster, South Yorks.
They were jailed for a total of nine-and-a-half years at Sheffield Crown Court after pleading guilty to false imprisonment and wounding.
Now brave Summer has spoken of the harrowing torture she suffered at the hands of the three yobs who she thought were her friends.
Summer’s night of torture began when she called at the town centre flat of her “friend” Blades, who was with the other two, in the hope of staying overnight because she was worried it was too late to return to her parents’ home.
Summer said she considered Gaines a friend and thought Blades was a “nice guy” - but she sensed “something was wrong” as soon as she entered the flat.
She had met the pair two years ago through her boyfriend, Andrew Smith, but had only met Canning twice.
She said: “My instinct was saying this isn’t right, but I know them so I thought it would probably be okay.”
Before long, the trio began plotting and were sending messages to one another via their mobile phones.
They began telling Summer her boyfriend had been cheating on her and became aggressive when she refused to believe them.
“She started smacking me around and pushing me into the wall and started saying ‘It’s me being a good mother’.
“They were kicking me, punching me, slapping me and shouting things at me. At one point Jay had one of those motorbike chains and he started hitting me with it.
“I kept thinking what have I done to make them change? What have I done to make them want to hurt me that bad?
“Jay started doing martial arts moves and said it had been his birthday wish to try them out so got the others to film it.
“I was so terrified, I kept thinking they’re not going to let me live.
“James started weeing on me, all in my hair.
“I begged them to stop it all but they just didn’t care.
“My eye had got all swollen up from where they had been punching me, and they started squirting lemon juice in it.”
She said: “They were talking about killing me and then getting a van and abandoning it with my body in it in the middle of nowhere or maybe driving it into the river where no-one would ever find me.”
The attack, which took place on the morning of December 22 last year, only came to an end when the group called a fourth friend over at 10.30am to ‘finish the job’ on the victim - only for her to call an ambulance instead.
The fourth girl and Blades then followed Summer to the hospital after they had instructed the girl to tell the police she had been attacked in the street.
Summer spent three days in hospital following the horror attack and suffered burst blood vessels burst in
both eyes, a fractured elbow and was in a cast for 6 weeks.
She also suffered cuts and bruises on her legs, back, chest and arms.
