Hogwarts. Sixth Year. October 1st.
A chill settles over the castle-and it's not just the weather.
When students start turning up dead, fear spreads faster than Filch's gossip.
No wands. No witnesses. No idea who's next.
Y/n Y/l/n and her friends try to make sense of the chaos as Halloween creeps closer... but something about this year feels off.
Way off.
Because monsters don't always wear masks.
And sometimes, they sit right beside you.
