The Faculty

On a fateful evening at Herrington High School, Principal Valerie Drake realizes she has left her keys behind. Returned to retrieve them, she confronts a creepy incident with Coach Willis, who is increasingly unstable.

As Valerie attempts to escape her office, Coach Willis stabs her hand with a pencil, intensifying her desperation. Despite her struggle, Mrs. Olsen intervenes fatally, ultimately leading to her tragic death.

The dawn of the next day introduces six crucial characters, including Casey Connor, a diligent student, and Delilah Profitt, the head cheerleader. Their interpersonal dynamics set the stage for the unfolding drama.

Zeke Tyler, a brilliant but rebellious senior, faces scrutiny as his illegal activities attract concern, especially from Miss Elizabeth Burke. His character sets a tone of conflict among the high school group.

During lunch, unaware of the turmoil to come, Casey finds a strange creature on the school grounds. He brings it to Mr. Furlong, sparking curiosity about this bizarre organism.

While hiding in the teacher's lounge, Casey and Delilah witness Coach Willis and Mrs. Olsen attempting to force a creature into Ms. Harper's ear. This shocking sight confirms the danger lurking within the school.

After alerting the authorities of the escalating situation, Casey faces disbelief from Principal Drake, who dismisses his claims as mere attention-seeking. This moment illustrates the growing tension and isolation felt by the students.

In a heated discussion, Casey suggests that the teachers may be controlled by aliens. When confronted, Mr. Furlong dismisses him, leading to a chaotic confrontation between the characters.

Zeke makes a bold decision to cut off Mr. Furlong's fingers during a struggle, revealing the lengths they must take to protect themselves. His action symbolizes the desperation in their fight against the unknown.

Zeke brings the group to his house to investigate the creature further. This pivotal moment leads to the revelation that the creature is water-dependent and can be killed using Zeke's drugs.

As the football team begins to exhibit symptoms of infection, the group targets Principal Drake, convinced she is the alien queen. This marks a major turning point in their fight against the invasive entity.

Amidst the chaos, Stokely grows concerned about Marybeth's behavior, sensing something is off. Unbeknownst to her, Marybeth is not who she seems, escalating the tension within the group.

In a dramatic climax, Marybeth reveals herself as the alien queen, shocking her classmates. This twist culminates in a frantic chase through the school, heightening the suspense.

In a desperate attempt to save his friends, Casey cleverly traps Marybeth and stabs her with the drug. This heroic act leads to her disintegration, signaling a turning point in the children's struggle.

A month after the ordeal, life at Herrington High School resumes its normal rhythm. Relationships blossom, with Stan and Stokely dating, while Casey's newfound romantic interest in Delilah marks a hopeful conclusion.
