Plot:
If you ever take a headless selfie, pray that you don't live in Bastillio.
Because in that city, it is the same as receiving a death sentence. It is proof that you are marked for death, a haunted one who is targeted by a living shadow of eldritch origin, which the citizens call the Shade.
But when Vergil Torres found out he was a haunted, he was the opposite of scared. Because he knows that the government has built a shelter that has successfully kept haunteds alive for the past decades.
But the gruesome and inexplicable death of one of them during their stay in the supposedly safe house renews the horror of the Shade.
Vergil, together with his classmate and fellow haunted, the "traditional morena beauty" Cana Bernardo, decided to get to the bottom of it.
The two classmates who were indifferent to each other must now work together if they are to survive through the month.
