What happens

Dead of Summer is an American supernatural horror television series created by Adam Horowitz, Edward Kitsis and Ian Goldberg for Freeform. The series is set in the 1980s at Camp Stillwater, a Midwestern summer camp. In November 2015, Freeform gave a straight-to-series order. The series was conceived as an anthology, with each season conceived as a self-contained miniseries, following a different set of characters in similar settings. The series premiered on June 28, 2016 and concluded on August 30, 2016. On November 8, Freeform cancelled the series after one season. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
