I told her, a slight panic in my voice. She rolled her eyes, "It's just a party in the middle of the woods, what could go wrong?" " "Everything! Everything could go wrong, I mean did you not hear yourself? 'It's a party in the middle of the woods'," I paused for dramatic effect, "Haven't you seen scary movies?
