Description: In the 2003 film *Jeepers Creepers 2*, the story unfolds during the Creeper’s twenty-second day of feeding. The creature begins by kidnapping young Billy Taggart in front of his father, Jack, and older brother, Jack Jr. The following day, a school bus transporting a high school basketball team and cheerleaders experiences a tire blowout caused by a bone fragment shuriken. Cheerleader Minxie Hayes then has a vision of Billy and another victim, Darry Jenner, who warn her about the Creeper. Shortly after, the bus becomes disabled, leaving the team stranded. The Creeper later abducts the bus driver and two coaches.
Upon its return, the Creeper targets six students: Dante Belasco, Jake Spencer, Minxie Hayes, Scotty Braddock, Andy “Bucky” Buck, and Deaundre “Double D” Davis. Minxie’s vision reveals the Creeper’s pattern of emerging every twenty-third spring for twenty-three days to feed on humans, a detail she shares with the group.
Hearing police reports about the Creeper, the Taggart family sets out to hunt it down and eventually makes radio contact with the stranded bus. During an attack, Bucky is targeted, but Rhonda wounds the creature by stabbing it in the head with a javelin. Dante’s curiosity leads him to prod the Creeper’s wing, resulting in his decapitation. The Creeper then replaces its injured head with Dante’s severed one.
The students attempt to leave the bus for help, but the Creeper chases them into a field, killing Jake and taking Scotty. Later, the creature attacks Jonny, Chelsea, and Bucky on the bus again, but the Taggarts arrive and Jack shoots it with a homemade harpoon. After a brief struggle, the Creeper escapes by flipping the bus. Rhonda, Izzy Cohen, and Double D find a truck and try to flee, only to be pursued once more by the relentless creature.
