Biography[]
In Part 2, Nurse Mary Lane, mother of the long-deceased Ruby Lane and staff member of Camp Nightwing, had spent most of her life trying to find Sarah Fier's hand, which she believes is the only way to end the curse. The camp was built onto Union, the old Shadyside town, which means that Sarah Fier's house is found near it (later revealed to be Solomon's house). Next to her house there was an entrance that leads to the underground maze the Goodes used to curse people to be possessed by the devil. Mary had full access to these entrances and noticed that Thomas' name was already carved on the wall, which means he would soon be possessed. She tries to kill him in order to prevent a full massacre but fails, ending up in the hospital. Tommy spends all day hearing voices inside his head until he is finally possessed and sent into a killing spree in Camp Nightwing, killing twelve people, the majority of them being children.

Post-Death[]
Fear Street Part 1: 1994[]
Thomas was one of the three killers revived in order to hunt down Samantha Fraser, along with Skull Mask and Ruby Lane. The Killers are revived after Sam comes in contact with the spirit of Sarah Fier, who wants the town to know the truth about the curse of Shadyside. Satan sent revived killers each time a person saw her spirit in order to protect his bargain with the Goodes. After being revived, the killers would then target that person, following their blood, and killing anyone who stands in their way.
The protagonists believed the curse to be the doing of Sarah Fier, ''The Witch of Shadyside'', so they attend to her burial site in order to appease her spirit. This only triggers the appearance of the Nightwing Killer, who runs at full speed in an attempt to kill Sam. The group manages to escape the killer and plan a scheme to get rid of the three Killers by using Sam's blood. They gather the killers in the bathroom of Shadyside's High School and set it on fire, causing them to explode into black goo. However, the remains reunite and the Killers come to life again. Nightwing is the first to gain physical form and attempts to kill Samantha again, but fails.
Finally, the protagonists realize that they could only get rid of them by ''killing'' Sam, following the story of C. Berman, the only survivor of the Camp Nightwing Massacre. They gather all of the killers in a grocery store and use themselves as bait by staining themselves with Sam's blood, while Deena tries to ''kill'' her using drugs and then tries to revive her by using epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. The plan proves to be a disaster and ends up with Kate being brutally murdered via bread slicer by Skull Mask and Simon being axed in the head by Nightwing. Deena improvises by drowning Sam in a lobster tank. Nightwing finds the pair and runs at them at full speed, but Sam dies before he has the chance to kill them. The killers then disappear and Sam is successfully revived by Deena.
Fear Street Part 3: 1666[]
Nightwing is revived once again with the other killers, but this time is sent to kill Deena. The main cast sets up a trap in which they would lock up all of the killers in the mall using the store's security fences and then stain Nick Goode with Deena's blood, releasing the killers so they would attack him. Nick manages to escape the trap and the cast sprays the killers with Deena's blood, causing them to attack each other. Nightwing attacks the Grifter with his axe but is later disarmed by him, allowing Skull Mask to attack him with his knife. Nightwing ''dies'' along with the other killers but as with the killers' deaths in Part 1, but the killers arise again and attempt to kill Josh, Ziggy, and Martin. However, the three are saved by Deena who kills Nick just in time, ending his bargain with Satan and making Nightwing vanish into a swarm of flies along with the others.
