However, Knight said that the minute she walked inside what became known as the 'House of Horros' she was immediately hung from a pipe and left dangling for 24 hours. She said Castro used an orange extension cord to tie her neck, hands and feet and hang her 'like a fish.' Michelle told Dr Phil: 'I said to him, "Please don't do this to me, you don't have to do this." But he told me, "I can't take you back now...I can abuse you because no one will care"' Traumatized: Things became so bad at one point, she begged the other girls to let her die, but it was thoughts of her son that got her through the nightmare Knight said she was later untied, taken to the basement of the home and chained around the neck to a pole. 'This is where you're going to stay until I can trust you,' Knight says she was told by Castro. Knight sad Castro told her, 'You're only going to be here as a friend, that's it. And I'll let you go on Christmas.' Little did she know she would be held captive in his Cleveland home for more than ten years. Knight said she was forced her to wear a motorcycle helmet while in the basement which made it hard for her to breathe and ultimately caused her to pass out. Knight told the psychologist host, Phil McGraw, that she wore that helmet for the first three weeks in the house. She said she was raped, hit, whipped, choked and was made to go to the bathroom in a bucket. Knight said she was only given one shower in a year and that Castro withheld clothes and blankets from her. I never talked to him. I hated him,' she told Dr. Phil. I told him that he was a monster. Nightmares: Michelle was the self-professed most hated girl in the house and the first to be abducted in August 2002 when she was 21 - but Castro thought she was 13 When asked by the talk show host whether she ever felt like she just wanted to die, she said the thought of her son kept her going. I want my son to know me as a victor, not a victim and I want him to know that I survived, loving him. His love got me through. Knight said she was eventually moved from the basement to a bedroom upstairs, with boarded windows, where she was chained to a bed. She said she was 'lonely, scared' and would cry daily, 'always praying to God to pop the locks or do something.' The interview also touched on the day Knight first encountered Amanda Berry, the second female abducted by Castro, and later rescued. 'She looked like she wanted to cry, but she didn't cry,' Knight said of her first encounter with Berry. The House of Horrors: Ariel Castro kept the three women captive in his unassuming suburban home She said the two were not allowed to stay in the same room together for long and they maybe only saw each other 6 or 7 times in that first year. 'Sometimes she would cry and I would tell her everything will be ok and one day we'll get home. We just have to wait it out,' Knight said. Knight also didn't hold back on discussing her mother in the televised interview. She said that even before she was abducted, she was held captive by her mother. I wasn't allowed out, I wasn't allowed to have friends,' she said. Knight said her mother wanted her to be 'as dumb as a doornail" so that she would collect money from SSI (Supplemental Security Income).. Dr. Phil said he obtained a comment from Knight's mother who claims her daughter's point of view has been "altered by that monster and what he did to her'....'What I have heard that she said about me breaks my heart.' Castro, 53, a former school bus driver, hanged himself in September in his prison cell after being convicted of abducting the three women and repeatedly sexually assaulting and battering them. At the time of their disappearances between 2002 and 2004 Amanda Berry was 16, Gina DeJesus was 14 and Miss Knight was 21. They escaped in May and are now 27, 23 and 32 respectively. More harrowing details emerged today of the abuse Michelle Knight had to endure during her decade in captivity, as she recalled how Ariel Castro thought she was a 13-year-old prostitute and punished her when he found out she was older. Michelle was the self-professed most hated girl in the house and the first to be abducted in August 2002 when she was 21. She told Dr Phil about the moment she realized what was happening. 'I said to him, "Please don't do this to me, you don't have to do this." But he told me, "I can't take you back now...I can abuse you because no one will care."'

Almost a year later in April 2003, Castro abducted Amanda Berry, who was 17 at the time, and later in 2004 Gina deJesus. She was 14. Michelle said she was forced to help her abductor prepare a torture chamber for his next victims. 'I had to help him drill holes in the wall to put the chains through to hook us together,' she said. I could hear screaming coming from the basement and a girl cry "get off me."
