History[]

Downingtown High School was a public high school located in Downingtown, Pennsylvania. In the 1950s, the principal of the school was a middle-aged man named Henry Martin. In 1958, an alien blob monster began attacking the town of Downingtown. A young man named Steve Andrews discovered that the creature was vulnerable to extreme cold and that CO-2 fire extinguishers could cause it harm. Henry Martin and a group of students went to the school late at night. The doors were locked, so Mister Martin picked up a rock and smashed the glass panes on the door to gain entry. They scooped up every fire extinguisher they could find to drive the creature back.
