Millwood High School is a public high school in Millwood, Pennsylvania. It appears to be a run-down facility that has become neglected in the town.
Throughout Series
The worn down public high school of Millwood, Pennsylvania welcomes back its 16-year-old pregnant student Imogen Adams following the tragic loss of her mother. Imogen and her only friend Tabby Haworthe groan at the reminder of it being Spirit Week, as Karen Beasley promotes her campaign for Spirit Queen. Also back to school is summer delinquent Noa Olivar, who makes daily reports to Nurse Simmons for a drug urine test. Throughout the school day, Imogen, Tabby, Noa, Mouse Honrada, and Faran Bryant receive messages from an unknown sender. Imogen sees a masked creeper in overalls staring at her from across the quad as she's in class.
Tensions are high in the school now that Imogen is back and the school's impending production of Swan Lake looms over the ballet students. Things boil over on Tuesday, when Principal Clanton warns Imogen that her presence is triggering some of the students. Imogen boldly confronts whom she deems responsible, Karen, in the cafeteria. She proclaims her decision to run for Spirit Queen, earning the vote of some of her impressed peers. The school dims for the night, with Faran practicing late. She sees someone watching her, a masked creeper, and tries to catch them but they escape before she can. After she leaves, the creeper returns to his lair in the boiler room. The school janitor is suspicious and follows the creeper, finding an assortment of paraphernalia on his work bench. Before he can call 911, the creeper slashes his throat with a box cutter.
The next day, someone defaces Karen's posters while hanging pro-Imogen signs in their place. Karen also finds a mutilated rat in her bag, razor blades in her dance shoes, and Noa's urine test comes back positive for marijuana usage. Clanton and Karen blame Imogen and Tabby for the posters, Mouse for the rodent, and Faran for the razor blade. Subsequently, the five girls are sentenced to detention, where they fall under the belief that Karen framed them. Together, they concoct revenge.[1]
Despite the setbacks, Imogen continues her campaign for Spirit Queen with Tabby's help. They disperse fliers for a special screening at The Orpheum, where they ultimately disperse an embarrassing video of Karen for the entire student body to see. Karen gets her revenge by plotting with her twin sister Kelly, for the perfect Carrie-themed revenge at the Spirit Week Dance. The dance goes horribly awry when the masked creeper arrives and thwarts Karen's plan by throwing her off a balcony during the crowning ceremony. To the students below, except Imogen, Karen seems to have jumped to her death.[2]
The school conducts a memorial assembly honoring Karen Beasley, describing her as a beloved member of the community. The town sheriff, who is also Karen's father, believes Karen killed herself as a result of the bullying the five girls committed. Principal Clanton announces the disciplinary hearing that will determine whether or not the girls can be expelled for what they did. The hearing takes place on Friday, but all of the charges regarding Karen's death were dropped in light of Kelly Beasley's testimony about the plan to Carrie Imogen. He warns that while expulsion is off the table, other punishments aren't.[3]
With the school back to a semblance of normalcy, Tabby breaks into Millwood High late one night with Chip Langsberry, Greg Mantzoukas, and Faran Bryant to direct her short film project for Mr. Smithee.[4] The night before Halloween, Faran tells Madame Giry her suspicions about Kelly's identity, believing that she is really Karen. Giry balks at the claim and tells Faran of Kelly's cutting disorder that explains her eerily similar scar that Karen had.[5] As Kelly practices for her now-leading role in Swan Lake, the masked creeper now known as A attacks her, wrecking the auditorium where she practices. He spares her life when she breaks down in admittance of being Kelly, not Karen. She drops out of Swan Lake and Faran is recast as the lead role. The production goes off without a hitch.[6]
Millwood High hosts a blood drive over Thanksgiving week, in which Kelly, Imogen, Tabby, Noa, and Faran volunteer. Nearly every kid in school gives blood. The jocks exempt themselves out of fear their blood might be tested for P.E.Ds.[7]
On December 15th, Imogen, Tabby, Noa, Faran, and Mouse are lured to Millwood High School for The Trial A has for their mothers over their actions towards Angela Waters in 1999.[8]
