It’s unclear what caused the blaze. Natick police tweeted the limo “might be evil” because the fire later rekindled.

One student suggested the bad fortune was a result of it being Friday the 13th. The students said it was scary but also “kind of cool.”

The teens did make it to the prom; they caught a ride on a passing trolley also headed there.
