"Whatever took that young girl, bring her back where she belongs".- "California Love" Gazette

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 past in Don't Let the Darkness Consume You.

Prelude
On October 25th, 1973, Randy Cavanaugh, driven by his 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 her completely traumatized and forcibly independent.

Three days after the incident, after unsuccessfully moving on from the grief of her parents' deaths, Mary Jane tried to commit suicide for the first time, using Alan's razor blade 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.

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 Major depressive disorder, and also displayed signs of Psychosis due to several head injuries she caused to herself. Although she was treated well, Mary Jane felt extreme sadness for not having her parents by her side and was extremely tormented by their memorial.

Event
During the night of April 10th, 1974, the Saint Damian Psychiatric Hospital orderlies told their inmates to stay in their cells, including the 11 years old 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 opened the door, waking up the young girl. A scared Mary Jane asked Anastasia who she is. Anastasia replied to Mary Jane that she "answered the call" and will bring her to her home and protect her. Concerned, but at the same time convinced, Mary Jane accepted and silently left the psychiatric hospital with Anastasia, without leaving a trace. Soon, the fog started to disappear, and everything was silent again.

Aftermath
On April 11th, 1974, Mary Jane was reported to be missing from the psychiatric hospital, leading the police to arrive and investigate Mary Jane's disappearance. In the middle of the investigation, detectives found traces of an unknown, glowing azure substance in her cell, leading detective to take samples of it. When forensic serologists attempted to analyze the substance, the technology used suffered a high jolts of energy, to the point of causing it to suffer short circuit. Reports stated that a ghostly creature took Mary Jane away, and the substance was ectoplasm. The theory was billed as a hoax, and the police fined the psychiatric hospital for negligence. The case has spread throughout California, but despite the rumors of Mary Jane billed as deceased, residents confirmed that she is still alive.
