Sure

So, what are the plans for tonight?

Err, from what I just

heard, signing, drinking

and truth or dare

OK:

I'm always up for a good dare

Jessica?

Damn it!

Who's there?!

Cut it out!

Stacey!

F***ing show yourself you slut!

[ghostly whispers]

[ghostly scream] RUN!

[ghostly whispers]

[ghostly whispers]

So err... What do you do for fun?

People

Oh God sorry, that was lame!

But, no, I... I was trying to be funny.

Oh God I'm such a dick

That's fine!

Shame it isn't true

It couldn't be further from the truth

Wait! No, that sounds bad too. Shall

I just take you back to the camp

before I put you off liking me for good?

Big head!

Thinking I liked you in the first place!

Oh sh*t.

I'm terrible at talking hot guys

I should like, just be banned. Just

Confined to my house

I err...

I didn't mean to imply that you liked me

So you think I'm hot?

Yeah?

Sh*t

This is the point where the ground

should just like, swallow me all up

But

you are a good looking guy

Sorry,

I was just checking you out and...

all I heard was...

swallow

I'm kidding, I'm kidding!

Relax

You're hot man

Sweet

and you've got a cute smile

Nah I'm, I'm far from cute

You calling me a liar?

No, polite!

I've no reason to be polite

So um...

What made you agree to come?

Told you man

It's not every day your best friend tells you

that he's got a good looking friend who's single

Thank you

Right! Take me to this camp

We need to get you a drink

and calm you down a bit

[ghostly whispers]

Hey guys!

Where the hell have you been?

Ah, a mysterious stranger

has appeared! Alright Alex?

Alright Stace? Recovered from last week?

You bet! Ready and raring to go again!

Hell mate, nice to see you

Take that

Alright Laura

nice to see you!

Good to see you

So what are we doing?!

Partying!!!

Wait, did you guys seen Richard

anywhere? He's been gone a while

Nah, we didn't see him anywhere.

Can't say I'm unhappy about that.

Hopefully he's got the message he

wasn't wanted and he's gone home.

What car was he driving?

I parked next to a red Honda

Nah that's mine. Was it the blue Picasso?

Yeah, that's his.

Nah

there was only a red one

See! He's done the sensible

thing and he's left.

But, why would he leave?

Half this stuff is his,

he was our ride home

Ah it's alright, I can give

you a lift. It's no hassle.

Yeah, same!

Look, do you want that

prick to ruin the weekend?

No! But...

This weekend is supposed to be about fun!

We came here for you, and to have

fun, so let's just do that already!

So where am I sleeping?

Well it just so happens that

you've got a couple of choices Alex.

Choice number one,

you can come and crash with me,

choice number two,

you can sleep with the lovely Laura,

or, choice number three,

which I think is going to

be your preferred choice,

is bunking down with your hot blind date.

So where's Stevie sleeping?

Ah, I'm hard-core! I'll

sleep under the stars.

Loz, did you bring that sleeping bag?

Yeah, it's in the tent

That's alright

I think I know where I'm sleeping!

[music]

[ghostly whispers]

Right, I need to pee!

I want to go now before it gets dark, because

otherwise I'll trip over and wee all over myself!

Lovely!

Don't forget to wipe!

Thanks!!

[peeing noise]

Stevie, is that you?

Ahh if you're trying to watch me pee, that's

creepy! I'm not into that sort of thing!

[footsteps]

Excuse me!

Jesus f***ing Christ! Who the hell are you?

Um, hi, I'm Marcus

Well I'm sure it's very

nice to meet you Marcus!

Why are you watching me trying

to pee, and who the hell are you?

I'm not, I'm not! Honestly, I'm

just glad to have found someone.

Sounds very suspicious to me!

Well, I was with a group,

and they went off to look

at something and I lost them!

A group?

Yeah yeah!

A dogging group?

No No! It's a ghost hunting group!

Ghost hunting...

You have got to be shitting me!

No seriously, look!

Oh this is tragic!

I don't know where your group

is, but can I borrow you?

Look what I found!!

Who's this?

Hi I'm...

This is Marcus,

and no,

he's not a stripper

Well,

unless you want him to be!

But no, anyway, Marcus here

is a professional ghost hunter!

Seriously?

Yes Jack! Let's not judge.

I think that's cool.

You would!

So come on the love, fill them in

on what you've been investigating!

Um... OK

Are we really doing ghost stories?

Is this not a camp site tradition?

Is this not what I promised you tonight?

And,

it's about a death

that happened in these very woods!

Really?

Come on, fill them in!

OK so, where to start?

This is getting beyond corny

I could just leave, I just want to

find my group before it gets dark

No it's fine, come on.

Yeah, I want to hear it!

OK, OK...

So, 25 years ago, there was a

young teenage girl called Jessica

who got pregnant and had a baby

she was bullied by the kids in

her school and in the neighbourhood

and then one day...

just a few days after giving

birth she snapped and ran away.

She ran into the woods, these

woods to precise and hanged herself!

The baby was left and died of hypothermia.

She left a note behind, simply

saying "Just leave us in peace".

Ever since

These woods and the roads and streets where she lived

there's been reports and sightings of hearing a baby cry...

and a small woman in grey walking

through the woods and streets

Why grey?

Apparently that's what she

was wearing when she died.

So where did she live?

In the Bracknell area.

We did a ghost hunt in

the roads where she lived

can't remember the name, but we didn't find anything. As we

were leaving someone found a grey scarf on a street sign...

It wasn't there when we started.

How do we not know about this?

It's an old story, but as with a

lot of news reports they come and go.

The sightings have become quite frequent and Jessica has

become a bit of legend in the ghost hunting community.

That is beyond creepy!

But that's not all either

there's a farm shop at

the end of these woods.

The two shop keepers one day saw

a small woman, dressed in grey

walk in and pick up a pint of

milk and walk straight out again.

The two shop keepers couldn't believe it...

then two weeks later the same happened.

The small woman in grey walked in, picked

up a pint of milk and walked straight out.

This time they followed her, but

they couldn't see where she went.

So when it happened the third

time, they followed her instantly.

They followed her to these woods. But

they couldn't see again, where she went.

But they could hear a baby crying.

So they followed that noise.

And eventually came upon a memorial

plot for Jessica and her baby.

The crying immediately stopped and they noticed

on the ground three empty bottles of milk.

Oooo... spooky!

Thank you Marcus, that was brilliant!

You can go and find your gang now.

Oh...

You can stay if you want? Sorry

Stacey lacks people skills.

Do you want a drink?

No I should really find my friends
