Chapter 4 - Chapter Three

The truck was close to the corner.

Crazy Ralph, the old timer, said: 'You're going to Camp Blood, ain't ya. You'll never come back again...it's got a death curse'.

'Ah, shut up, Ralph', Enos said.

'Is he that crazy?', Annie asked him.

'Sometimes', Enos answered.

'I hope to cook soon', Annie said.

'Are the girls in Crystal Lake as pretty as you are?', Enos asked her.

'I don't know', Annie answered.

In the truck, Enos was agitated.

Both of them wore brown colored seatbelts. 'What's the matter with Ralph?', Annie asked him.

'Religion is big in Crystal Lake. Sinning is not tolerated in Crystal Lake. After the murders of Barry and Claudette in nineteen fifty-eight, and Jason Voorhees in nineteen fifty-seven, when he drowned, a lot of problems happened. Mysterious fires in nineteen fifty nine. And, in nineteen sixty, the water was poisoned. No one knew who did it'.

'I am cooking for fifty inner-city kids. Steve Christy hired me to look after the campers. I dream of a better future, you know. There's no bad karma, you know', Annie told him.

'I don't believe in ghosts', Annie laughed. Enos dropped her half-way towards the Camp Crystal Lake sign...and Annie grabbed her bags. Then she took off her seatbelt, and smiled. Then she saw Enos wave, as she walked towards the haunted campgrounds.
