Eighteen year-old Corey Peterson and his mother move to a small town due to a trauma in their past. On Corey's first day at Hallows End High School, he's approached by Mason, also new in town, who tells him about the death of his friend at the school and advises Corey to stay away from the wrestler Perry and his gang. When two other students vanish, Corey decides to talk to Principal Rizcheck, who pays no attention to him. Corey and Mason investigate the secret about the school and expose the dark truth about Hallows End and the missing students.
