Her family have feared the worst since her disappearance in rural Arkansas.
But suspicions have grown that an element of foul play may be involved, as reported by ABC affiliate KATV-TV.
Hannah is a fan of the social media site Snapchat, according to her family.
Her dad Wesley has called the days she has been missing "the hardest" of his life.
But in a cryptic Facebook post, he shared a picture of himself with his daughter along with a brief message.
He wrote: "It's been a whole week since I've seen your beautiful face!
"I'm coming and I'm bringing Hell with me! I know, they know, and everyone will know soon enough!
"Bring my baby girl home or give her a phone so she can call me!"
It is unclear who the "they" he refers to in the post is, and whether he believes for certain that he knows who has Hannah.
Wesley, from the small city of Bradford, previously said his daughter had "problems" on Snapchat.

Dad of missing teen issues cryptic threat after she disappeared just before her 18th birthday
The father of a missing teenage girl shared a cryptic threat amid fears that she may have left with someone she met on social media just days before her 18th birthday. Hannah Osborn was last seen at around 7.40pm on August 9 leaving her parents' house in Bradford, Arkansas. Her parents, Wesley and Crystal, think she may have met someone on Snapchat and fear she may be in danger - as they claim it is unlike the teen to disappear. 'She's had problems with being on Snapchat and meeting people out of town and things, but Hannah has always come home,' Wesley told KATV, adding that there were 'some vehicles spotted on my road about the time that she left.' It remains unclear whether Hannah may have entered one of those mysterious vehicles, but on Facebook, her worried father suggested he may have information about his daughter's disappearance as he issued a mysterious threat. 'It's been a whole week since I've seen your beautiful face!' Wesley wrote on Saturday, sharing a selfie Hannah once took of the two of them. 'I'm coming and I'm bringing Hell with me,' he vowed, declaring: 'I know, they know and everyone will know soon enough!' He then pleaded with whomever may have taken his daughter to 'bring my baby girl home or give her a phone so she can call me!' He suggested he had information about his daughter's disappearance The message came just days after Wesley shared another post, assuring Hannah that she is not in any trouble. 'It's been the hardest five days of our lives, not knowing where you are or what may have happened to you,' he wrote in the post, tagging his daughter. 'We have turned this country upside down searching for you, following every single lead without hesitation, hoping we would see your beautiful face at the end of each one.' Wesley then told Hannah he would 'beat down the doors of Hell to find you and make sure you are safe, and I hope you realize that and know that you are loved and greatly missed. 'I want you to know that no matter what I will always love you,' he continued. 'Good, bad, right or wrong, I will always be here for you. You are my flesh and blood, my baby girl. 'If you are out there and upset with us or whatever the case may be, just know that you're not in trouble,' Wesley added. 'We're not trying to force you to do anything against your will. '[We] just need to hear your voice, look you in the eye (even if it's through FaceTime or whatever) and know that you are OK and happy wherever you are.' Wesley then reiterated the message in a post on Sunday. 'Hannah I love you and we all just need to know that you are OK. Call someone and let us know you're alive. 'Come home and give us a hug and tell us where you want to go or where you want to be. I'll help you gather your things and take you wherever you want to go.' He then went on to say that 'the unknown has our whole family in turmoil and we are all scared to death something has happened to you. 'We will not stop looking for you until we know you are safe,' Wesley wrote, noting: 'This is so unlike you and completely out of your character. 'I can't help but think that you feel the same way, scared and confused,' he mused. 'We love you more than we could ever express in words and I pray you find the courage and are given the opportunity to pick up the phone and call us.' Wesley has told KARK he was outside feeding his cows on the night of August 9 when his wife told him Hannah was gone. 'I called a neighbor and they brought a dog up here and it's like she just vanished,' he recounted. Wesley and Crystal say the disappearance was unusual, noting they were looking forward to celebrating Hannah's birthday with family. 'This is way out of character,' Crystal said. 'This is not Hannah.' The teenager is described as five-foot-nine-inches and weighing about 120 pounds. She has curly, blonde hair, though Wesley has said she frequently straightens it. She was last seen wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans, and she was carrying an orange and black backpack.

College football star arrested days before start of the season as embarrassed coach admits: 'We're thankful nobody was hurt'
Clemson tight end Ian Schieffelin was arrested over the weekend on a suspicion of driving under the influence, days before the start of the Tigers ' season. Details of Schieffelin's arrest were not immediately available, nor how long he will be removed from competition. Schieffelin is in his first season on the Tiger football team after using his final year of collegiate eligibility to try his hand at the gridiron after four seasons with Clemson's men's basketball team. Schieffelin switched teams, playing for Clemson on the hardwood as recently as this year's NCAA Tournament. Now, his new head coach, Dabo Swinney, has released a statement on the arrest. 'We are aware of Ian Schieffelin's arrest on suspicion of DUI,' Swinney said. 'Clemson Athletics has a clear policy by which we will abide, so Ian will miss some competition to start this season as a consequence.' 'We're obviously very disappointed by the situation, but we are very thankful no others were involved and no one was hurt.' Swinney first made his interest in adding Schieffelin to the football roster last fall, with a spot opening up on this year's roster. Originally, Schieffelin entered the transfer portal, to find another school for his fifth year for basketball alone. He then had a change of heart and accepted Swinney's offer. Swinney wanted Schieffelin on his roster due to a lack of depth at tight end, leaving a void for however long he will be out of action. The Tigers now only have three tight ends with a collegiate catch on their roster. It is unclear the last time Schieffelin played organized football, as he focused on basketball in high school and college. Even with Schieffelin's absence, Clemson is expected to be a national-title contender and win the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Scorned lover who ignited county's worst wildfire in HISTORY to hide the body of woman he murdered is jailed
A jealous lover has been jailed for life after a fire he lit to cover up a woman's murder grew to a massive wildfire that killed two more people. Victor Serriteno, 33, pleaded guilty to three counts of murder and arson charges and must stay behind bars at least 73 years. He met Priscilla Castro, 22, online and she came to visit him in Vacaville, California, on August 16, 2020, and was last seen at 5.49pm in her car. The next time anyone saw her was on September 2 in Putah Creek Wildlife Area, ground zero for one of the worst wildfires in the region's history. Castro's body was burned beyond recognition, but her angel pendant survived and led to her body being identified and Serriteno arrested. Serriteno never explained how and why he killed Castro, but admitted to setting fire to her body on August 18 to destroy the evidence. The fire spread and became the Markley Fire, which merged with other wildfires in the LNU Lightning Complex and claimed six lives and destroyed 1,500 buildings. Douglas Mai, 82, and Leon 'James' Bone, 64, were found dead in their homes in Solano County, unable to escape the blaze traced back to Serriteno's arson. An eight-month investigation pinned their deaths on him, and he was slapped with two more murder charges and two counts of arson. Serriteno's sentencing in Solano County Superior Court followed emotional testimony from Castro's family, Mai and Bone's loved ones, and residents who barely escaped the fire and lost everything. 'She wanted to own her own hair salon, own a family business and maybe even get married and settle down one day,' Castro's mother Lisa Phelps told the court. 'I know without a doubt where she is. She is in heaven in the presence of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Do you know where you are going?' 'You will have time now, to get right with the Lord. The fire you set was blazing but it's nothing compared to hell.' Castro's close friend Emelina Corona said Serriteno 'tore a hole through every single person who knew and loved her'. 'Your prison time will never equal the pain you caused. But she will live on - long after you are forgotten,' she said. Mai's neighbor Jeff Shamrock added: 'There is no place in civil society for a cold, calculated killer. And that's what he is.' Castro's body was burned beyond recognition, but her angel pendant survived and led to her body being identified and Serriteno arrested Solano County District Attorney Krishna Abrams said Serriteno 'almost got away with it' when he burned Castro's body to cover up his crime. 'This was one of the most catastrophic fires in the history of Solano County. Lives of those impacted have been changed forever,' she said. 'We cannot undo these vicious, brutal, and senseless acts by Serriteno, but the one saving grace with this plea and sentence is that it provides some sense of closure for all of the victims and their loved ones. 'This defendant will be locked up for the remainder of his life to keep him from harming anyone else.' The LNU Lightning Complex was one of the largest wildfires in the state's history, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The other fires were sparked after nearly 11,000 lightning strikes hit the northern part of the state as it endured a historic heatwave. Collectively, the fire complex scorched over 363,000 acres across California's famed wine country and burned down almost 1,500 structures after forcing the evacuation of tens of thousands of residents. The massive inferno tore through the area north of San Francisco for two months and killed six people.
