Description[]
S-Mart is an American big-box department store chain. Ash Williams once worked here as a stock boy in the Detroit, Michigan branch, and eventually worked his way up to become a Housewares manager. It was here that he met Linda, who became his girlfriend.
Following a time travel jaunt to Medieval times, Ash returned to working at S-Mart, but was now cautious of the presence of evil spirits that possessed humans known as Deadites. One such individual attacked Ash in the store, and he used his wits and his shotgun to take her down. [1]
In 2008, S-Mart opened its first Supercenter retail outlet in Crystal Lake Township, New Jersey. Employees of this outlet included Caroline, Davey, Jarvis, and Raoul. To help the staff sure things up for the holiday season, they borrowed Ash from the Detroit location to come to the new center. [2]
Once you mix Deadites with Crystal Lake, you know that all sorts of trouble is going to arise, right? Ash, as well as some young employees named Caroline, Jarvis, and Raoul scavenged some supplies in order to take down undead mass murderer Jason Voorhees, but Jason is a lot smarter than most people give him credit for, and their plan didn't quite work out.
