The **Disappearance of Mary Jane Fitzgerald** is a major abduction case that shocked an entire county, waking up theories of the supernatural's existence. It is a pivotal event that explains Mary Jane's forsaken past in Don't Let the Darkness Consume You.

## Prelude

On October 25th, 1973, Randy Cavanaugh, driven by a seething thirst for power and control over the camp, murdered Alan and Janet Fitzgerald, Mary Jane Fitzgerald's parents, alongside other eight camp counselors and forest rangers under the New Moon, leaving the young lady completely traumatized and becoming an orphan. Three days after the incident, after unsuccessfully moving on from the grief of her parents' deaths and Abigail Montgomery's disappearance, Mary Jane tried to commit suicide for the first time, using a glass shard to do the raw attempt. She was found by a group of police officers and rushed her to the nearest hospital. Mary Jane's life was saved and she was hospitalized for five days.

After that, Mary Jane was then sent to the Saint Damian Psychiatric Hospital, where she was under constant surveillance by the orderlies. Many psychiatrists diagnosed Mary Jane with multiple disorders, including Major depressive disorder and Psychogenic Amnesia. She was under constant survelliance by the head of Psychiatric Care and Rehab Department, Dr. Billy Marlowe.

## Event

During the night of April 10th, 1974, the Saint Damian Psychiatric Hospital orderlies told their inmates to stay in their cells, including Mary Jane Fitzgerald. In the course of the night, a spiritual entity known as Anastasia Wynter infiltrated into the psychiatric hospital, leaving a greatly thick fog in the asylum and the orderlies oblivious to her presence. As she was walking on the corridor, Anastasia found Mary Jane's cell room, and with supernatural force efortlessly opened the door, waking up the young girl. A scared Mary Jane asked Anastasia who she is, who replied to Mary Jane that she "answered the call" from two people that care about her, and will bring her back home to protect her. Concerned, but at the same time convinced, knowing that she suffered enough confinement in the psychiatric hospital, Mary Jane accepted the purpose and silently left the psychiatric hospital with Anastasia without leaving a trace. Soon, the thick fog started to disappear and everything was silent again.

## Aftermath

On April 11th, 1974, Mary Jane Fitzgerald was reported to be missing from the psychiatric hospital, leading the police to arrive and investigate her disappearance. In the middle of the investigation, detectives found traces of an unknown, glowing azure substance in her cell. When forensic serologists attempted to analyze the substance, the technology used suffered high power surges, to the point of causing it to suffer short circuit. The case has spread throughout California, but despite the rumors of Mary Jane billed as deceased, some residents confirmed that she is still alive. Because of this, Billy stated that a ghostly creature took Mary Jane away, and the substance was ectoplasm. However, this statement backfired and the theory was billed as a hoax and caused the psychiatric hospital to close for negligence. After the closure, Billy became traumatized of Mary Jane and started to be haunted by frightening hallucinations and whispers.
