When sixteen-year-old Sophie Harrington moved to a small town with her family, she never expected to study in an old high school that hides dark secrets.
Endless hallways... portraits of students with eyes that follow her wherever she goes... a chained door everyone warns her not to approach, yet it calls out to her every night.
From the very beginning, Sophie never felt comfortable in this old high school; rumors about it spread throughout the town, stirring fear and doubt about the school. With each passing day, the mystery grew, and it seemed that shadows followed her even in broad daylight.
With every step she takes, Sophie discovers that what is happening is not mere illusions... but remnants of crimes and mysterious rituals buried by the administration years ago. And now, those spirits refuse to be forgotten.
Will Sophie and her friend survive the curse of the school? Or will their names be the next ones on the bloody wall?
