Plan

As a group we came up with meeting dates on a 2 week basis. During our free study period's we arranged an hour meeting to start our story boarding and put our idea's together. We all equally contribute in the meetings,  mostly with similar ideas that we agree on and work well together.

Final Group Plot Synopsis

Plot Synopsis

Beginning
A group of four friends find a girls diary in the library who appears to have been bullied, they read it and recognise a name written which is Holly’s neighbour, Mrs Kynch so go to see her as the diary ends in 1927 when she was 16. They ask the woman about a girl named Mary (owner of the diary) she goes silent and tells them to leave. They then see a news report about teenage hangings in the woods mentioned in the diary nearby them so Connor (the arrogant one) says that they should all go and camp in the woods as a dare with head cams to see whether there is anything strange going on there.

Middle
They walk quite a while to get to the woods (with their head cams on) Sophie (the scared one) stays nervously behind everyone scared and claims she saw a flash of white between the trees but the others just say it was her imagination. They then set up camp and as it’s getting dark Sophie and Tom go to get some fire wood. As they’re collecting sticks and talking Sophie suddenly goes silent, Tom looks around shouting her name, but she’s no where to be seen. Tom runs back to camp and tells the other two that Sophie has gone missing but Connor doesn’t believe him and thinks they’re just playing a prank. The three go looking away from camp until Connor turns around and walks into Sophie who has been hung he falls back freaked out crawling back as fast as possible. The three stare at her dead body scared to ‘death’. Holly goes to ring her parents but realise they have no signal this far from home and decide it would be more dangerous to try and find their way back so they go back to the tents and try to sleep.

End
The next morning they wake up and Connor is gone, they open the tent zip and outside they see his body hanging from a rope in the tree. They realise that they left their head cameras on so replay the footage and see a girl come into the tent and take Connor. Holly gets the diary out and figures out that the girl on the video is Mary the diary’s owner. She flicks through the pages and sees new writing after it had ended when they last looked which states Sophie and Connors death at the precise time they died and after that they see Toms name and his death from the future but in 17 minutes and soon after Holly’s predicted death. Both freak out as they realise the diary is predicting the future so they try and find their way out but keep coming back to the same place. They start hearing chimes in the wind and a quiet voice singing. As they are running Holly trips and the book falls out her hand just as Tom is suddenly about to be hung he shouts ‘you need to write her death in the diary’. Holly manages to grab the dairy but not in enough time to save Tom. She then quickly writes “Mary’s death” looks up and Mary has gone and there is a silence in the woods as she sits there crying until Mrs Kynch finds her and takes her home explaining that Mary didn’t directly kill her friends she just was trying to make friends but was mistaken for seeking revenge.
