Jimmy, Cindy, Eustace, and Erik were walking behind Mr. Benjamin. He opened a door and ushered them inside. "And this is the main set. It is the classroom and hallways," he said while motioning to the set around him.
The four kids stared in awe. It looked exactly the same as Mr. Fitz's classroom. Everything was in the exact same spot.
"Wow," Eric said for everyone.
Mr. Benjamin nodded his head, proud of his work. "Yes, no expense has been spared in this film. We feel with the right marketing, it could easily make over two hundred million dollars in the U.S. alone."
The kids turned their attention to him. "Really?" they all asked.
"Hey, the Blair Witch Project only cost $35,000 to make. It ended up drawing in over $150 million. It did well because they lied and said it was a true story. This really is true."
Mr. Benjamin turned around when he heard a door open. He smiled as several kids walked into the room. "And here are the actors who will be playing you."
The four kids walked up to Jimmy, Eustace, Erik, and Cindy. There was a moment of awkward silence before the actor who played Jimmy shook Jimmy's hand.
"Great to meet you, Jimmy. You're a real hero. My name's Dave, and it's an honor to play you."
Jimmy rubbed the back of his neck and smiled. "Oh, it was nothing. I'm looking forward to seeing how you'll portray me." He turned towards Mr. Benjamin. "I thought adults always played teens in horror films."
Mr. Benjamin laughed. "Yeah, we realized that was dumb."
The actress who played Cindy walked up to Jimmy and shook his hand as well. "Hey, I'm Sarah. You're a lot cuter than the script made you out to be."
Jimmy turned around and faced the angry Cindy. "Don't worry, I don't need her. I've got the real thing," he said while kissing her cheek.
Eric ran up and shook Sarah's hand. "Hey, I'm Eric. Great to meet you. Did I mention I fought the killer? It was my I-pod that killed him. Yep, that's me. A real hero," he stuttered, not taking his eyes off the beautiful Sarah's eyes.
"So, you must be, uh, me," Eustace said while approaching kid dressed like him.
"Name's Tim, glad to meet you," the actor said while shaking his hand.
"And I'm Bill, by the way," the actor who played Erik said while looking at the group. Nobody even looked at him. "Yeah, ok. I'll just go get some snacks or something."
After a few moments of talking, Mr. Benjamin spoke up. "Well, I hate to interrupt, but these actors have some scenes to shoot," he said while ushering the actors to another set. "Feel free to browse around. You can join the cast for lunch in an hour, ok?"
"Yeah, sure," Jimmy said while grabbing Cindy's hand. The four friends walked around the set.
After a while they came across a room in a secluded hallway. "Hmmm, costume department. That sounds cool," Erik said while opening the door. Eustace, Cindy, and Jimmy stepped inside and closed the door.
"God, somebody find the light switch," Jimmy said while feeling the wall. It was completely dark.
"Got it," Cindy said as she flipped the switch. A single light bulb came on in the center of the room.
The gang stood in silence as they stared ahead. Dozens of costumes of the killer were on racks. "Let's get out of here," Eustace whispered as he took a few steps back. He tried to open the door, but it wouldn't budge.
"It's locked?" Eric quietly asked. Eustace nodded.
"I told you we shouldn't have done this! He's going to kill us!" Eustace shouted at Jimmy.
"Break down the door!" Cindy yelled.
Jimmy and Erik glanced at each other. They nodded and backed up. They ran at the door and knocked it open. They fell on the floor. Cindy and Eustace quickly ran outside. Cindy grabbed Jimmy's hand and pulled him up.
Jimmy walked over to the fallen door and turned the knob. He angrily glanced at Eustace. "You were turning it the wrong way!"
