Norma Watson

Norma Watson is a major character in Carrie. She is a student at Ewen High School in Chamberlain, Maine.
==Novel==
Norma is senior class president and she along with 14 other students were decorating the gym for the upcoming prom. At the prom she was handing out programs and seating people according to a pre-arranged chart.
Not long after Norma dropped a ballot for prom king and queen on Carrie White and Tommy Ross' table and said "Good Luck!" which was false as they realised. She and Tina Blake then replaced the ballots with fake ones that named "Tommy Ross and Carrie White". She survived The Black Prom but barely got out with Tina by escaping through the fire exit in time with others like Miss Desjardin. She is condemned to never forget about what happened at the prom. 
Some time later Norma described her version of the tragic downfall of the prom in her memoir, We Survived The Black Prom without mentioning how it came to the catastrophe while also lying about her role in it. Her fate has since then become ambiguous but it is implied that she is hiding from the world because of the role she played in The Black Prom out of fear it may come out and told in her memoir only a watered down version of The Black Prom without telling her very guilty part in it to make the best out of it and to partially ease the burden of guilt that is going to haunt her forever.
==1976 Film==
Norma Watson appears in the 1976 film and is portrayed by P.J. Soles. Norma is almost as cunning, sadistic, ruthless, unforgiving, malicious, sinister, wicked, unsympathetic, clever and conniving as Chris Hargensen and was more of a major player. For starters she hung around Chris for nearly the entire duration. 
She also was the one who hit Carrie White in the head with her baseball hat and she was near Chris when Carrie began to panic over her first period. Soon after Norma was trading spitballs with a fellow classmate during a reading from Mr. Fromm in English class. Norma was fleshed out as being Chris's closest and right-hand girl. Norma hung around with Chris for most of the time and played a key role in the prank against Carrie at the prom. At first Chris was reluctant to tell Norma anything about what she was up to but eventually cracked up and told her role in the prank. At the prom Norma collected the ballots for king and queen. After she collected the ballots she replaced them with with fake ones so that Tommy Ross and Carrie would be elected king and queen of the prom and gave them to the committee for evaluation giving Chris the "ok" signal from under the stage. After the pig's blood was "mysteriously" dumped on Carrie, Norma was the first to laugh at the terrible sight along with her friend, Kenny Garson. She could not contain her laughter causing Carrie to hallucinate and believe everyone else to doing the same. Norma, Freddy DeLois and Kenny then made their way through the crowd heading for the exit door. However, Carrie had other plans and slammed both Freddy and Kenny in between the gym doors. Norma screamed for help as all the lights in the prom turned into a darker red color and the fire hose turned on by itself spraying anyone that crossed its path. Norma screamed in terror and fear with the rest of the students until Carrie finally got her revenge and mercilessly killed Norma by spraying her into a table with the fire hose. 
This likely lost her consciousness and if not it killed her. If she wasn't dead before Norma was ultimately finished and killed off for real when she was burned inside the prom with the rest of the students and teachers. She was dead as the gymnasium collapsed and fell on her corpse.
