During breakfast Susan had informed she'd drop Chantel off to school. But as soon as they sat inside the car, her mother said. "Pennsylmania huh?"

How the hell did her mother even found out about it? Chantel gave a little nod.

Susan puffed, "renting out an entire amusement park so that you don't have to wait in line, is not cool...it's mindless."

"It wasn't like that mom," Chantel defended Roman.

"It's exactly like that," her mother said.

Susan wasn't a fan of Chantel's friendship with Roman Godfrey because she was concerned about him and his reputation with the ladies. And Susan keeps on reminding her: that he was a Godfrey after all, that family was so rich but fucked up because after the closing of the Godfrey steel mill many years earlier caused many to lose their jobs—leading some families into extreme poverty. Some workers had even died at the mill and some took their own lives after they lost their jobs. And ever since, some kind of curse befell on the Godfrey's.

Chantel didn't believe in curses and all that shit but her mother did somehow and whenever the topic was brought up, they'd end up in a quarrel. It was the first day of a new school year and Chantel had no intentions to start her day quarrelling with Susan, so she kept her thoughts to herself.

As she was adjusting her headband glancing up at the stairs above. "Good morning," Peter wished. Peter Rumancek was 5'10 but slouched a bit, his hair was shaggy brown and his eyes blue. He had unusual long fingernails for a guy and unkept facial hair.

The boy had just moved into town with his single mother over the summer. They lived at the old trailer by the creek, where a man named Vince lived before he tragically died out of alcohol poisoning. Chantel and Peter crossed paths when Susan had stopped by the trailer to get some herbal teas from Lynda Rumancek. Peter's mother knew her way around herbs like her late brother Vince did.

Then a rumour started to circulate that Peter Rumancek was a werewolf. Chantel had heard it from Brooke Bluebell during one of their cheerleading practices. It was the dumbest thing she'd heard so far. The theory came from Christina Wendall, the nerdy girl of Hemlock Grove. Her theory was; Peter's index and middle fingers were the same length, and he was hairier than most teenage boys and that made him a werewolf.

Someone has been watching Teen Wolf a little too much, over the summer.

A silly theory of course, but there's one thing about rumours—it spreads like wildfire consuming everything in its way and by now the entire Hemlock Grove high school knew about the new kid in town. They say any publicity is a good publicity but this wasn't one of them.
