By now, you know the story unless, of course, you've been living in a fallout shelter for the last decade. It's been 10 years since Heather, Mike, and Josh sojourned into the Black Hills of Maryland to film their ill-fated project.

The trio escapes and runs frantically from the tent, screaming into the night, as the childish laughter continues...
