Alice, Mia and Elizabeth are three 16 year olds with a unbreakable bond but, one night that bond is broke by the cold, decaying hands of death.
The three girls are walking home from a party on Halloween night. All of them would rather be trick-or-treating but the small town frowns upon teenagers doing childish things. Even though that's what teenage years are for, right? While walking to Alice's grandmothers house- where the girls are all staying- Alice suggests that they use a shortcut through the woods to get home faster.
" Alice are you crazy it's eleven on Halloween night haven't you ever seen a scary movie?" Exclaims Elizabeth
" Don't be such a stick in the mud Elizabeth. Come on it'll be fun. What's life without a little adventure?" Replies Mia with her fake British accent
Elizabeth just a roles her eyes and follows her two best friends. At 11:30 and owl hoots spooking the girls. Alice grabs Mia's hand and Mia grabs Elizabeth, who just roles her eyes and pushes them forward. At midnight they reach the the river and they hear a wolf howl.
" Crap that sounded close!" Says Alice
" We better cross fast but I'm not going first. " replies Mia and they both look Elizabeth.
"Fine I'll go first. " Elizabeth sighs
She wades into the freezing cold water and crosses. Then Alice crosses. An owl hoots again and Mia starts to cross. She reaches the middle of the river and Alice screams. A dark hooded figure appears behind Mia. It stretches out a dead, decaying hand a grabs her. She lets out a banshee like scream and tries to run but, it's hopeless she can not escape death. The figure pulls her under and Elizabeth and Alice run. They run down the bank trying to catch them. Elizabeth stops dead and Alice runs into her. She steps around her and screams. Alice takes of running and Elizabeth follows. Alice hits the ground and hugs Mia's dead body. Elizabeth stands behind her and tries not to cry. Neither of them will ever forgot this horrible night. To this day if you cross the river at midnight you too will meet death.
