* ''[[Carrie]]'' - [[Scrapbook Story]] about [[Butt Monkey|an abused girl]] with [[Psychic Powers]] who takes a terrible revenge after a [[Prank Date]] to the prom.

Made into a movie by [[Brian De Palma]] that received two Academy Award nominations (for acting), which later received [[The Rage: Carrie 2|a sequel]] and a [[Made for TV Movie|made-for-TV]] [[The Remake|remake]].
