[FEAR STREET: PROM QUEEN]
"I could be the way forward, only if they pay for it."
Florence Martin had it all, or so it seemed. At Shaddyside High, she was the girl everyone admired. She had the grades, the looks, the charm. She volunteered at the animal shelter, helped run the yearbook committee, and even tutored struggling freshmen in her spare time. Teachers praised her. Parents wanted their kids to be more like her. Florence tried to live up to it all, afraid of what would happen if anyone saw the cracks beneath her perfect surface.
But not everyone believed in playing by the rules. Christy Renult, Florence's oldest friend, was everything she wasn't, bold, impulsive and rebellious. With her dark eyeliner, red cow-boy boots and devil-may-care attitude, Christy had no interest in school dances or popularity contests. That is, until Tiffany Falconer, queen bee of the ultra-privileged 'Wolfpack' clique, mocked Florence in front of the whole cafeteria, calling her 'Shaddyside Barbie.' That's when Christy had the idea: run for prom queen. Not to win, but to challenge Tiffany's crown. To shake the school's golden hierarchy. To burn down the throne. At first, Florence laughed it off. But something inside her stirred. A quiet urge to be more than the girl who smiled politely and kept her head down. To own her spotlight. So she said yes. But how was Florence to know that there was going to be a killer out there, who was killing all the prom queens. One by one.
