Carrie White attended Ewan High School in Chamberlain, the only High School in Chamberlain. Johnny Riddell attended a middle school in Chamberlain. Chamberlain was rocked to its core in 1979, when a prom night massacre stemming from Ewan High School wound up destroying the Ewan High School and most of the town in the process. In time it became a ghost town, that never did rebuild itself from the ashes of the disaster, because the people lost their will for that after the disaster, which also made them look like fools and assholes and therefore decided to leave the town in order to forget the deaths and the Carrietta White affair.
