One day Carrie is at school in the gym locker room and she gets her menses.Well,shes not sure what it is and she starts screaming and crying for help.The other girls start making fun of her because they know what it is.Because they made fun of Carrie so horribly,they have to run laps after school.When they got to gym detention,Chris refused to run.The gym teacher gets very upset so she decides to take Chris?s prom tickets away.Now Chris hates Carrie.Chris and the other girls make up in evil plan to make Carrie look rediculous at the prom.The plan is to vote Carrie prom queen and hummiliate her by droping a bucket of pigs blood on her.Chris sneaks into the gym right before the prom and sets the bucket of pigs blood above the rafters.The prom starts and Carrie and her date are called up for prom king and queen.As Carrie walks up to get crowned,the pigs blood falls on her head.She is so upset now that she uses her mental powers to trap every one inside the gym and light the school on fire.

The author?s purpose was to shock and stune the readers by holding so much suspense and horror in each story.He also likes to prove that kids should watch out about what they say because what goes around comes around.
