Albert Canady, his sister Pepper, and his friend, Airlia Moss, a witch, investigate a strange calling from a reopened school building that had sat empty for many years. Ghostly appearances and fantastic indoor storms set the stage for the youngsters' quest for the truth of a long-ago tragedy that cost lives and gave rise to restless spirits. Trapped inside the building, with darkness encasing them, Albert, Pepper, and The Witch are forced to face their fears and fight back against unseen, poisonous, and flesh-eating creatures that are always in pursuit. Other adversaries include another witch with a personal agenda and people threatened with losing their minds to their inner guilt and horrible memories. Albert realizes that solving the mystery is the only way to save innocent lives and bring peace to the disturbed.
