Halloween is truly a festive time of year. Spooky stories, haunted houses and vampires that you can't help but thirst over because you're weird like that. That's why Hale Woodsen's inviting you to the Traitre Museum. You know, that weirdly atmospheric place near 86th, the one with the dome ceiling? Yeah. There'll be music. Shadows. Smoke machines. Candlelight that definitely isn't safe. Maybe even a Ouija board or two. Costumes are absolutely mandatory - don't come dressed like a civilian unless you want to be sacrificed mid-party for the aesthetic. For everyone has suffered a tragedy recently, the disappearance of Luca Almirez. For those who don't know (you're living under a rock), the basketballer disappeared a month or two ago, after the biggest game of his life. Nothing's been found about him, and to be honest? We're not sure if there ever will be. He was a best friend, a gifted sportsman, and overall a beloved member of society. Perhaps this is Hale's way of battling the grief. Since, you know, he was Luca's best friend. He's trying just as hard as everyone else to get to the bottom of this. His list of suspects is never ending, from Cady Lovaine to Ruel Cruz, to even Reverie Vale and Leslie Wilde. But they have hunches too, and so the story continues, dangerous and twisted. But that's not everything. If you want to get all the details, let's leave the Halloween party. Let's go to the 16th of August, where everything began.

Gillian has been acknowledged as nothing more than the middle child caught between her elder brother, the golden boy and her younger sister, the spoilt princess. And she's dealing with it just fine. That is until she meets Niles, a guy with no seeming attachment to anything or anyone. Although, he has seemed to take a keen interests in her-- or more specifically, an issue he discovers they share in common and that's getting their over parental figures to back off. For Niles to avoid having to see a shrink and for Gillian's promiscuous actions to not come to light, the two agree to pose as a couple and convince their guardians they're completely healthy, socially functional people. As hard as Gillian tries to draw the line there, roles and boundaries get blurrier and more complicated that she can't be too sure where she'll be left standing.
