A terrifying dare could unravel a deadly truth.
Alison Locke feels invisible. Abandoned at an elite boarding school by a mother who barely sees her, Alison longs for acceptance. Her chance comes with a chilling initiation: spending the night in Room Thirteen, the very place where Lily Martin, a girl just like Alison, reportedly took her own life fifteen years ago. Armed with a Ouija board, Alison enters the desolate room, hoping to prove her worth, but instead she awakens a vengeful spirit.
What begins as a spooky prank quickly spirals into a fight for survival. As Lily's presence grows stronger, the line between Alison's reality and the supernatural blurs. Soon, gruesome murders rock the school.
Can Alison uncover the truth behind Lily's death and stop the bloodshed before she becomes the next victim... or the next killer?
