As Kit explores the school, her attention is captured by a mysterious door at the end of a dimly lit hallway. Madame Duret warns Kit that this door is strictly off-limits, igniting Kit's curiosity about what lies beyond it.

Kit quickly forms friendships with other troubled girls at the school, including Ashley, Izzy, Sierra, and Veronica. Together, they navigate the challenges posed by Madame Duret's strict rules and begin to bond over their shared experiences.

As Kit raises concerns about the haunting experiences, Madame Duret dismissively attributes them to the medication. Tensions rise, and the girls’ abilities become more pronounced, signaling a conflict between them and the staff.

Tragedy strikes when Kit discovers Ashley attempting to end her life. The shocking event has a profound effect on the remaining girls, leading them to fight harder against the sinister forces at play in the school.
