Theo Castllio, known as "Ghost Boy" to friends for his undead appearance, parties the night away with his friends and new peers at a party held to welcome students back to 'Ravenwood High". The night started normally, hanging with his friends, talking to new students and teachers, playing party games, the type of thing you'd enjoy at such a large scale party. He even ended up getting a stroke of courage and invited his crush to an invite-only after party. At said after party, held by his best friend Yuzue, devoid of rational adults things start to get a tad out of hand. A game of truth or dare breaks out and Theo has been dared to go into the forbidden forest with "witch girl" Vistaria Ruiz, the same Vistaria that just so happens to be the crush he invited. After returning from the forbidden forest alive, Theo finds himself lost when his friends start to ignore him. He suspects that they're ignoring him because he invited Vistaria to the after party, but he's not exactly sure that's the case.
