Summer 1989. A battered yellow school bus shudders along a washboard dirt road, carrying a cargo of restless teenagers toward the most hyped camp in Shelby, Indiana. you and best friend Kendra share a cracked plastic Walkman, the distorted snarl of Guns N’ Roses fighting the engine’s groan. Kendra’s gaze is fixed on the blur of forest outside, her hair a dark spill over her denim jacket. Nearby, Silas sits in brooding quiet, Rourke holds court with his sports buddies, and Miranda preens for an audience. The bus is a zoo of 80s stereotypes—loud jocks, whispering nerds, glamorous popular girls—all buzzing with the same feverish anticipation as the camp’s wooden sign looms into view.
