Snakes continuously pop up in the book and movie, with Holly and Ziggy not being big fans.

Prior to the events at Camp Nightwing, Cindy had a falling out with her best friend Alice, like Holly fell out with Geri. Cindy and Holly are both counsellors that want to keep everyone safe, while Holly and Ziggy want to be anywhere else but Camp Nightwing, where they’re hated by sh*tty counsellors and campers alike that ultimately try to kill them. Holly has a lot in common with both Cindy and Ziggy Berman in the movie. Told it’s an “accident,” Holly has to watch her back lest the killer comes back for her. With increasingly frightening acts of vandalism plaguing Camp Nightwing, junior counsellor Holly Flynn is determined to solve a fellow counsellor’s murder. It seems like Lights Out is the only mention of Camp Nightwing in the entirety of the Fear Street franchise, so I feel comfortable saying that’s where Part Two gets its camp name. Part Two‘s names are just signifiers of potential killers, while Trapped has a solitary name responsible for the deaths of the kids in the’60s. Skeletons coming back to life are also a big and deadly issue for both sets of teenagers.Īlso, a name being carved into a rock alerts the protagonists that something fishy is happening in the tunnels of Shadyside. Both Elaine from Trapped and Alice from Part Two find themselves battling ankle issues as they try to escape the tunnels after a cave-in, although Alice’s are a bit more gruesome.

However, instead of Shadyside High and red mist, the tunnels are now under Camp Nightwing and red moss is a warning sign for the movie.

They should’ve believed the stories about the deaths of the kids partying in the tunnels during the ’60s because history has a way of repeating itself.įrom the never-ending tunnels under the school to the red mist that seems to mean danger, it’s easy to make the connection between Part Two and Trapped. After getting detention at Shadyside High, a group of teenagers decide to explore the hidden tunnels under the school. You would think that Fear Street Part Two: 1978 would be primarily inspired by Lights Out, the book that takes place at Camp Nightwing, but that’s not the case as it actually has more in common with Trapped.
