Poison, drowning, claw, or knife - so many ways to take a life.

[the kids arrive at the location site of the old Halloween School Bus Massacre]

Schrader:
Great, a rock quarry. Nice way to celebrate Halloween, Macy.

Chip:
Why are we here?

Macy:
To pay our respects to the dead.

Chip:
What happened? Did somebody die here?

Sara:
Wait. Is this where - ? It is isn't it? This is where that school...

Macy:
Shut up, Sara.

Chip:
The Halloween School Bus Massacre.

Macy:
Just don't call it that.

Schrader:
What's she talking about?

Sara:
It's this awesome town legend. There's this bus full of...

Macy:
Jesus, will you shut up and let me tell the damn story?

Rhonda:
You said a bad word.

[Macy rolls her eyes at Rhonda before telling the story]

Macy:
It happened 30 years ago on a late Halloween afternoon. [begins narrating the flashback] A school bus was on its usual route. But this wasn't your typical school bus and they weren't your typical kids. There were eight of them and they were different. Troubled. Disturbed. Every day, parents put their dirty secrets on this bus to be driven to a school miles out of town.

[we see the kids in their Halloween masks and costumes]

Vampire Kid:
[in his seat counting the addresses outside] 3260. 3264. 3266.

Macy:
But that day... the driver took a different route.

Vampire Kid:
Wrong way. Wrong way. Wrong way.

Macy:
And instead of taking the students home he drove the bus to an abandoned rock quarry. This rock quarry. What the kids didn't know is that, over the years, their parents had become exhausted, and embarrassed. And they were willing to do anything to ease their burden. So one day, the parents approached the bus driver and made him an offer. With the money collected together, they asked him to do the unthinkable. It almost worked perfectly.

[the bus driver quiets the kids and begins to walk down the bus checking that each chained down kid is correct, passing them each a piece of candy]

Vampire Kid:
Wrong way. Wrong way. Home. Home. I wanna go home. I wanna go home. Home. [he manages to get out of his chains and gets behind the wheel] Home. Home. Home. I wanna go home. Home.

[the bus drives forward off the rock quarry]

Macy:
The driver was never heard from again. As for the bus, some say it sank so deep that it couldn't be found. Others say the town just didn't want it to be found. For all we know, it's still down there and so are those kids.
