Friday the 13th
Vickie, surname unknown, was a young woman of around nineteen or twenty who worked as a camp counselor in the early 1980s. She was a close friend of another girl named Terry and had worked with her several times under the tutelage of senior counselor Paul Holt.

In the summer of 1984, Vickie signed on to work as a counselor at Packanack Lodge in Crystal Lake Township, New Jersey where she shared a cabin with Terry. This was the first time that either woman had worked at this particular campsite. Paul addressed all of the counselors, and gave them a quick breakdown of their job duties and safety issues.

That evening, Paul gathered together all of the counselors around a campfire and told them the legend of Jason Voorhees. Vickie sat right next to Paul as he tried to maintain a reserved, yet serious tone. He spoke of Jason's demented mother, Pamela Voorhees, who only five years earlier had committed a massacre at Camp Crystal Lake, which was located on the opposite side of the lake at Packanack Lodge. As his spooky story came to a close, a fierce savage leaped out from the bushes brandishing a spear. Everyone scattered until they realized that it was just their prankster colleague, Ted, wearing a scary mask. Satisfied that everyone had gotten "Jason fever" out of their system, he reminded them that Camp Crystal Lake was off-limits.
