Initial ideas

Five friends help each other to set up tents and build a fire why discussing the oncoming night. Boy reads newspaper article about killer on the loose, he doesn’t tell his friends and then one friend is killed why collecting fire wood. They find a blood trail and one of the freinds tells the rest of the group what what he has read in the newspaper article. As night falls the group becomes lost as they go deeper into the woods and their phones lose signal.

Two friends go to the shops and buy some treats for the campout they are about to have, when one of the friends reads a newspaper article about a killer on the loose he decides to tell his mate all about it. They then buy there things and make there way back to his friends house where they tell the news to there other friends, they ignore the warning and decide to go on the campout anyway, unaware of the unfortunate night they are about to face.
