DISCLAIMER: According to my research there is no real place named Fonz pond. If there is I could not locate it on the internet or map. This is the story I made up entirely based on the song by Insane Clown Posse. Should Fonz pond be a real place and local legends of any kind line up with this story it is entirely coincidental. The references made below belong to their perspective owners also listed below. Rated PG 16. Reader discretion is advised.

Fonz pond

Off of lickity trail there is a pond. A pond so haunted, so evil it inspired the hit song Fonz pond by the insane clown posse. The lyrics of the song will be included at the very end of this story for reference. This is the story of that very pond.

Our story begins in the late 1860s around a group of evil witches. Witches about to perform the most powerful ceremony ever to be conducted. A Ceremony so dangerous thousands of witches have died attempting it. The ceremony known as the grand rite A.K.A the Ritum Magni.

The year is 1860 we see witches gathered around the pond beginning the ceremony. While the witches are dancing and chanting the demons begin to rise from the pond as the chanting gets louder and becomes more forceful. Suddenly the ceremony is interrupted by a innocent mortal whose horse and carriage got lost off the beaten path. And crashed violently through the withces into the pond.

The mortal was on his way to Louisville Kentucky from a small town in Colorado. While passing through Missouri the sun had set and he could no longer see as there was no moon on this night. Trying to get to the nearest town as soon as he could he was going full speed he didn’t even notice when he went off the trail that’s when he violently crashed into the pond taking out the witches before they could complete the ceremony.

Since the ceremony was not completed so there had only been some evil released. But not enough evil to destroy the world like they wanted to.

The evil was contained to the pond only as the result of the incomplete ceremony. The water became black even in the sunlight. Deep and dark nightmarish. Due to the evil that was contained in the pond. The weeds are red like splattered blood some say as a result of the witches that got hit that fateful night. Leaving a permanent reminder of the events that took place here.

over the next several hundred years. many people have come to swim here all of which have vanished over the years without a trace. Only very few people would narrowly escape with their lives claiming that something strong has pulled them under the water. These few survivors have one thing in common. They started praying and were able to leave as if the pond was rejecting them in some way.

Its Halloween 2020 and a group of teenagers have decided to throw a party at Fonz pond. Not believing the legend that surrounds the evil pond. In fact heavily mocking the legend on live TV the day before. Un-aware that they are about to have the most horrifying night of their lives. Those that survive that is.

Its Halloween night 2020 and the teenagers are staring to arrive deep in the wild brush with beer and food. It’s almost sunset as more people arrive. The teens start a fire as the party kicks in to high gear.

Some have partied here before but no one dared to swim here..... Until tonight that is.

The party is now in full swing and everyone is having the time of their lives when someone decides to go swimming. The water is fine she says as more and more drunken party goers start to go in to the pond with their judgments compromised. mostly drunken They have forgotten the legend that surrounds this evil pond.

A few hours after the party started and a few hundred drunken teens later the pond can no longer contain itself. The excitement is too much the pond is now ready to claim several hundred victims all at once. you see the pond needed some fresh blood as it had been several years since its last victim and it was famished. The pond and all of its beings could no longer wait.

Deciding it was time to strike and claim as many victims as possible. The beings in the pond were extending their hands tentacles and other various limbs preparing to pull in their victims in and hold them under to drown. And feed its own life forces with the blood and souls of the innocent. With the party in full swing the time was now to get more victims now more in one grab than it has ever had over the hundreds of years since the ceremony.

The impatient and desperate pond begins its attack pulling under all who dared swim there that fateful night. Starting with those closest to land one by one they were pulled under the water never to be seen again. There were several attempts to rescue the people being pulled under the water by the pond. With rescue lines and ropes but all rescue attempts failed horribly. All you could hear for a full mile were screams of terror as more and more people drowned all the others could do is stand and scream in horror as they watched those in the pond drown.

After the last victim has drowned the remaining teenagers scream in horror. They watch the pond in terror as they can’t believe what they just witnessed. They focused their headlights on the pond with their high beams on so they could see any other people that may still be drowning and need help. But there was no one left to be seen. The pond claimed a total of 150 victims.

The distraught teens couldn’t believe what they just saw. And that’s not all they’re about to see.

One of the teens lets out a blood curdling scream as she points to the pond with the high beam lights focused on the pond everything on the pond can seen. Suddenly something starts to emerge from the pond. The water from the pond starts to rise and change shape. The teens already messed up from what they had just seen become more distraught as they realize that the deaths of fellow party goers was not natural. The now more than 200 foot tall creature lets out a demonic scream.

The teens get in their cars and trucks and tear out of the pond onto lickity trail narrowly escaping the demonic creature. flooring it 15 miles to the main road. Once the teens reach the main road they vow never to return to the pond again.

The next day

The very next day the search and rescue teams set out in an attempt to recover the bodies of those that have drowned the night before. The pond only a thousand feet around and only 600 feet deep. The search and rescue team searched the pond for 7 hours. Coming up with no bodies as if nothing ever happened. They were forced to give up the search. because they never found any bodies. not a single one. The locals know exactly what happened that night.

And that ladies and gentleman is why you never swim in Fonz pond.

Off Lickity Trail, there's a pond where many a children died

It's a place to run to and disappear, a place where some folks hide

But they will tell you about the rumors that swim around this lake

Some say there's something in the water them deaths are no mistake

The fog that rides along the top has been said to carry voices

Those of the dead who took the dare and jumped in, they made bad choices

Some have seen and others heard and they say along the bottom

Are all the bodies of the girls and boys preserved, remaining half-rotten

The water's thick with murky mud, the weeds are red like splattered blood

In this pond a spirit cries, snakes and bugs replaced his eyes

Some don't believe and dare to swim, something under will pull you in

Hidden deep in the wild brush, if you know where it is then hush

We almost there

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

[Verse 2: Violent J]

Off Lickity Trail, there's a pond where many a children perished

The water is black, even in the sunlight, deep and dark, nightmarish

Some believe the bodies surface and bask underneath the moon

Others say they seen a headless boy stumbling around the lagoon

The loons scream all night long, sounds melodic, sings you a song

Missing children, swampy deaths, mysteries are secrets kept

Staring owls snakes and frogs, leeches living off hollow logs

Something's watching from the water, it took the missing sons and daughters

[Hook: Shaggy 2 Dope & Violent J]

It's over there!

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

[Bridge: Shaggy 2 Dope]

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me under, pulling me under

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me down

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me under, pulling me under

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me down

[Verse 3: Violent J]

Many terrifying horror tales emulate from this one place

Several children, young boys and girls disappeared here without a trace

What you believe and what you don't is entirely up to you

But if you go up there and swim alone, you'll know exactly what's true

Something's dragging through the mud, mosquitoes attracted to the blood

They say the dark depths have no bottom, some never came back up and got 'em

Crazy kids come party here, it swallows more souls every year

They jump right in and disappear, best to stay away from up there at Fonz Pond

[Hook: Shaggy 2 Dope & Violent J]

There it is

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

[Bridge: Shaggy 2 Dope]

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me under, pulling me under

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me down

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me under, pulling me under

Fight for air!

Something strong is pulling me down

[Hook: Shaggy 2 Dope & Violent J]

(There it is)

Don't go near the water!

At Fonz Pond

Don't go near the water!
