On the last day of summer camp at Briarbrook, the kids perform in a play, which seems weird since wouldn’t the last day be spent ensuring everyone was packed and ready to go home? After the kids are put on the bus, the counselors pick up the camp and spend the final night around the campfire. Peter, whose family owns the camp, peer pressures everyone into doing a ritual where they prick their fingers and invoke Agatha. Legend has it she was a camp nurse who was turned out to be a witch and met a bad fate in the woods.
Peters brother Sean is driving the kids home but the bus breaks down. While he tries to fix it, the kids disappear and then attack him. He calls his family to tell them he warned Peter not to do the ritual. At this point the counselors are under attack from Agatha and the possessed children are heading to camp to wreak havoc.
This is set in the 80s so there are no cell phones. I’m not sure how Derek keeps this job since he’s a violent hothead, No one would want this guy around their kids. But then again it’s the 80s, he’s got a mullet and he harasses women so maybe he’s supposed to be the cool guy personality.
For some reason, the parents of the missing children have not called the cops to ask where their kids are. We also have the trope where an explanation is not offered which causes drama due to a misunderstanding. When they know people are dying, they announce over the PA that Ben and Ashley should come to the mess hall. But they don’t say it’s an emergency or they’re in danger until much later.
