A Brooklyn man is accused of killing his girlfriend by stabbing her 32 times with a kitchen knife at his home early Tuesday — with neighbors hearing the tragic victim scream, “Oh, my God!’’ before she died.

Cops found 44-year-old victim Shavonny White with knife wounds to her neck and torso in the first-floor hallway of the house on West 20th Street near Mermaid Avenue in Coney Island around 1:30 a.m. after responding to a 911 call, authorities and sources said.

White’s 50-year-old boyfriend, Michael Walston, was arrested at the home, and a knife was recovered.

Walston was charged with murder and criminal possession of a weapon later Tuesday, police said.

Sources said Walston used a kitchen knife to repeatedly stab the victim during a heated clash.

White was rushed to NYU Langone Hospital-Brooklyn, where she was pronounced dead, police said.

A blood trail could still be seen leading down the steps of the building onto the sidewalk hours after the fatal stabbing.

The 911 caller, a male neighbor who did not want to be identified, said he was friends with the victim and the alleged killer – both of whom had lived in the building for about 10 years together.

“Yes, they were fighting,” he said. “It was terrible.

“After midnight, I just hear them screaming, and after 1 [a.m.], it changed,” the neighbor said. “I could hear both of them screaming, her screaming, and you can hear him yelling. … I called 911.”

Courtney King, 58, an artist and neighbor on the ground floor, told The Post the victim’s cries woke him from his sleep.

“I heard her screaming, ‘Oh my God! Oh my God’!” King said.

“I stay still. I stay inside. I was in my bed. I heard her screaming over and over, ‘Oh, my God! Oh, my God!’

“I know them [for a] long time. They never fight before. I never see them. But I am never in other people’s business.”

“Lord God, I can’t believe she die like that,” he said.

He described Walston as “a bully” who rode a motorcycle but called White a “quiet,” “decent” and “nice” person.

“I know her very well,” he said. “It’s insane.”

Walston was the super of the Coney Island building “for years” under the previous owner, King said.

A woman who identified herself only as Tia, 48, said the former landlord fired Walston “for his bad temper.”

Tia said Walston’s behavior recently changed for the worse.

“He used to be OK. Then about a month ago, he stopped talking to people.” she said.

“He started changing last month, yelling at people for holding the door open for him, not talking to anyone. He would yell, ‘Don’t!’ ‘No!’ ‘I do it!’ if you held the door open for him.

White’s devastated daughter was flanked by police officers and detectives at the scene Tuesday morning as she lashed out and said the alleged killer needed to pay for his actions.

“Is she dead?!” said the young woman.

“No, no, no, no, no! I’m going to burn [Walston’s] crib up! I swear to god! If I ain’t got no mother, I’m lighting that mother-f–ker on fire! That’s why I came here for. He got to get what he gave to my mother back! Where’s my mother? No!”

The victim’s parents, James and Joanne White, were also notified about their daughter’s death in the late morning.

Joanne left the home weeping and shouting, “My baby’s dead?! My baby’s dead?! He killed my baby?!”

“He’s crazy! Why this happen to her?! She don’t hurt nobody!

“I’m going to kill him! Why’d he kill my baby?!”
