Biography
Clay Miller was the brother of Whitney Miller. Though the two had once been close, they had a falling out shortly before the death of their mother. The hadn't spoken to each other for several months. When Whitney failed to attend their mother's funeral, Clay knew that something was terribly wrong. He tracked her activity to Camp Crystal Lake where he learned she had gone camping with her boyfriend Mike and several other friends. All of them disappeared and were never heard from again. Clay inquired with the local sheriff, a man named Bracke, who sent a team of men in search of Whitney and her friends. They combed the woods surrounding Camp Crystal Lake, but turned up nothing. Eventually, the search was called off. Clay however, was unsatisfied with this turn of events and continued to search for her on his own.

Clay began distributing missing persons' posters featuring Whitney's photograph all throughout the area. He stopped at a gas station and asked the attendant if he had seen her, but the man told him he had not. It was at this time that Clay encountered a college student named Trent Sutton and his friends Jenna, Bree, Nolan, Chelsea, Chewie and Lawrence. The group were on their way to Trent's family's summer home for a weekend of partying. Clay and Trent didn't exactly hit it off, and Trent rudely accused him of taking up too much time at the counter. Sarcastically whispering, "I guess I'm just an asshole.", he then got onto his motorcyle and left.
