Biography[]
In the 1980s, Trevor Kirchner worked as an activities director at Camp Redwood when it was owned by Margaret Booth. Prior to working at the campground, Trevor had a brief brush with celebrity status. He appeared in an aerobics training video, but was terminated from the job because his bouncing genitalia proved too distracting. He claimed to have made an appearance as a background extra on the opening credit montage of the sitcom series Three's Company.
When Trevor began working at Camp Redwood, he struck up a romantic interest with a younger counselor named Montana Duke. The two ventured out into the campground lake late at night to have sex. Their escapade was interrupted when Montana took note of a pair of headlights approaching their location. [1]
Trevor is later stabbed by Margaret Booth while attempting to gather the remaining counselors to escape from Benjamin Richter and Richard Ramirez though he survives. Trevor blackmails Margaret into keeping his mouth shut about the murders in exchange for her being his sugar mama though she wants to marry him so that he'd be unable to testify. Five years later in 1989, the two share a dysfunctional marriage and Trevor is reunited with Montana when Margaret wants to set up a music festival at Camp Redwood. Trevor wants to become a ghost to stay with Montana but she pushes him away, now feeling guilty about her relationship with Ramirez after learning about how much of a monster he became from Richter.
