Background

Charlie Perkins owns Perkins General Store and the Big Indian Souvenir Shop in Massachusetts. Charlie has lived in the Mt. Chocura area for ten years.

During the events of Winterbeast (1992) played by Charles Majka

Ranger Stillman goes to Mt. Chocura with Bill Whitman, Ranger Bradford and Charlie. Charlie thinks the skeletons on the totem they find were left as sacrifices and Bill recognizes it from a dream he had. Charlie tells them that the Native Americans used to worship a being called Chocura.

Bill goes up to the mountain with Stillman and Charlie at night to look for Slappy Tello and a missing camper. At his house, Charlie shows Bill a tooth he received from Burning Wolf that was supposedly taken from a warrior killed by Chocura. Charlie goes back up the mountain and photographs the totem and gives Bill the photographs. Charlie reads a book on totems and learns that some were used to summon lesser demons. Barbera tells Charlie that she locked up the store and he tells her that the trinkets on the totem are to counteract the evil.

Bill and Charlie put park closed posters up around town. Dick Sargent and Charlie tell Stillman that Dick saw Bradford's corpse at Dave Sheldon's lodge, Charlie then shows Stillman photos of the totem and says the corpses placed as offerings have changed to more recent victims. Bill and Charlie go to The Wild Goose Lodge and Bill finds Bradford's corpse. Charlie goes into the main lodge and sees Dave caressing the head of a dried out corpse and then dances around other dried corpses.

Bill finds Charlie and then shows him a prophecy that says a second man will appear to fulfill his forefathers' unfinished work and after the sacrifices are complete, more powerful demons then Chocura will appear. Dave confronts them and admits he is the one calling the Mt. Chocura Creatures. Dave's head then explodes in flames. Bill and Charlie are looking through binoculars when they see Dick attacked and killed by The Winterbeast. Later, Bill takes over the lodge and tells Charlie that he is going to send Stillman to cut the totem down. A Mt. Chocura Creature attacks Charlie and he manages to escape and sets the totem on fire. Bill goes to find The Winterbeast and he and Charlie find it, but they crash their vehicle. The Winterbeast attacks Charlie and Charlie finds a totem head and places it on the ground and Bill shoots it and The Winterbeast catches on fire and turns to smoke.
