Cindy Berman

Cindy Berman was supposedly born around 1959-1960, she's the older sister of Ziggy and was one of the counselors at Camp Nightwing prior to her death, she was also the girlfriend to Tommy who ended up becoming the killer. It was hinted at several times that she had history with Alice where something between them happened around the age of twelve that caused a rift between the two, she was also a sceptic and didn't believe that the curse was real and was also keen on leaving Shadyside something that her sister claimed would never happen further hoping that her older sister would be hit by a bus the minute she tried leaving which causes Cindy to tell Ziggy that she is a monster, her sister then goes on to say that she isn't the only one that thinks so. Given that an adult Ziggy mentions that a week had passed before her sister's murder, it can be safe to assume camp started around the 12th of July 1978 as shown on a photo that Ziggy holds with the date.

Cindy was first mentioned by a now adult Ziggy just moments prior to the flashback where Ziggy says "A week later my sister was dead" there was also a picture of the sisters stood in front of the camp sign. She is properly introduced cleaning the outhouses alongside her boyfriend where she complains about the moss catching onto her shirt, she further comments on the absence of Alice and Arnie and goes to find them only to find the two engaging in intercourse, they stop after realising they've been caught and Cindy and bribe her into getting drugs from Nurse Lane.

As they're cleaning the mess hall, Cindy continues to complain about Alice to Tommy and her anger gets the best of her as she ends up tearing a sponge in half which she swears at and Tommy teases her for it, she goes to the back to find another one only to return to an empty room and calls for her boyfriend who appears but the two are greeted by Mary who apologises for what she is about to do which is then when she attempts to kill Tommy before he can do harm, she watches in horror as Tommy falls down and the two give their reports of what happened to the police as their nurse is taken away.

Upon finding the book in the first aid cabin, Cindy watches as it is taken by Alice and Arnie which then causes her and Tommy to follow after them but stops and asks Tommy if he's okay which he says he's fine. On their trip to the mark, Tommy teases his girlfriend further which Cindy says she'll kill him if he continues. Upon finding the cave, the group split up and investigate the area but it comes to a gruesome end when Cindy watches as her boyfriend takes an axe and slashes Arnie in the face, she and Alice run before they can be killed too.

She is mentioned by Ziggy who is talking about her sister to Nick and admits that she never got along with her due to family issues but expresses concern when learning that there's a killer on the loose.

Cindy would then witness Alice's death, she tries to warn her but it is too late and Alice is slashed to death by Tommy, she and Ziggy then head for the tree after discovering that there's a chance they could end the curse but it proves futile as they failed and both are killed however Cindy is gone for good as Nick brought her sister back instead, Cindy is axed to death by Tommy ironically a while after she said she'd kill him if he didn't stop teasing her.
