4 friends are meeting up around a bonfire on the 5th
November. These include; Faith Richards – the promiscuous girl, Alex Martin –
the lover turned killer, Scott Chegg – the stoner / comic relief and Lucy Jones
– the innocent/final girl. Faith dares Alex to go into the shed for ‘7 minutes
of heaven’ with Lucy. Lucy is not too sure about this as she is not as
promiscuous or loose as Faith, and therefore lets Alex go in on his own.
In a frenzy, Faith accidentally tips over the bonfire and
fire begins to spread. They try to get Alex out but to no avail, and they have
to run away whilst he screams for help inside the shed. They believe he has
died, and no one speaks about it again, out of guilt and shame.
A year later, on the same day, the 5th of
November, the group are sitting in their college’s common room. As they are
conversing with one another, a masked figure jumps into the room and scares
them, but its revealed to only be Scott playing a prank on them. They all laugh
about it and go back to their discussions, however as they are talking, they
notice a masked figure standing at the window holding a metal bar. He begins to
walk towards the door as Faith exclaims “That’s not Scott! That’s not Scott!”.
The group spends the next few weeks afraid, as they believe
figure is coming to kill them. Eventually they find out that the killer is
Scott, back for revenge after they left him for dead. He developed major
scarring on the face, hence he wears a Hessian bag for a mask to cover his
face. He returns again, this time chasing them into a theatre. They sprint down
the stairs to avoid him, as he watches them from above. Alex fails to kill them
all, but manages to attack Faith, and she dies from her injuries.
They continue to be weary, and they tell a police officer
about their stalker, but to no avail, and he believes there are bigger
problems. Faith turns up to college the next day to find Scott died in his
sleep, murdered by an unknown suspect. She knows who did it, but the police
force do not help her. That day she walks through the empty corridors after
college has closed, staying after to speak to a teacher about everything that
went wrong.
As she walks through the corridors she hears footsteps behind
her, and she runs into the school hall, and attempts to hide inside the
curtains. She looks up and finds him above her on the rafters, rattling his
metal rod against the gating. She runs into another room and tries to stay
quiet, but her screams still come out. He tracks her down and manages to get
his hands on her, but she darts to the side and swipes the metal pipe from his
hands, and snatches it from his grasp. She hits his legs with it as he falls to
the ground, she unmasks him and asks why he did it, why he killed all her
friends. He tells her that they ruined his life by locking him in the shed and
leaving him to burn alive. She calls the police and tells them she has him
here, but they laugh it off as a silly prank call and they hang up. Whilst
she’s on the phone, Alex jumps up and sprints out the door. He turns around to
smile evilly at her as he runs into the night. Lucy falls to the ground and
bursts into tears.
