Biography[]
Greg Nakashima was a young man who hailed from Westwood, California. In 1989, he was sent to Camp New Horizons to participate in their "experiment in sharing" event.
During his stay at the campground, spree killer Angela Baker began systematically taking out the various campers and staff members based upon her own twisted set of morality. She captured Greg along with another camper named Anita Bircham and kept them tucked away inside of a cabin. She rigged a booby trapped axe that came down from the ceiling, catching Greg in the chest. Angela did not seem to have any apparent motive for killing Greg other than that she found him boring.
