The movie begins by showing a group of school children going to their house after a school
retreat, but Miguel's father has not come to pick him up yet. His teacher tells him
that his dad is on his way. and asks him to stay there and goes to find the helper.
Miguel hears the agonizing screams of his teacher and goes inside a big mansion.
He sees a woman in black there and thinking she is his teacher starts following her.
He then stumbles across a dead body, which he realizes to his horror is his teacher.
Best friends Ella and Faye are students of a prestigious school.
One of their friends and classmates named Adrian harbors romantic feelings for Ella.
Ella confesses that she will not be able to attend their school retreat due to financial
problems. Adrian offers to pay for her registration but Ella kindly declines.
Later, Faye tells Ella that she forgot her phone in the canteen and goes to pick it up.
Now Ella is alone in the corridor when the lights start flickering and she hears a girl crying.
Seeing her, Ella screams loudly, and then 3 girls named Megan, Jessie, and Allison makes fun of her.
The next day, during a Chemistry class,
Jacob, who also harbors feelings for Ella despite being Megan's desire, was asked by the clique
to give Ella a box of chocolates that actually contains cockroaches unbeknownst to Jacob and Ella
At home, Ella's mothe notices her sad behavior and gives her money to join the retreat,
which she reluctantly accepts.
They then reach the mansion where They are greeted by caretakers Selya and Anding. Selya
explains to everyone of the mansion's history and was owned by a rich woman named Donya Amara.
Now that night when Ella is sleeping,
she had a vision about a woman in black committing suicide by hanging herself.
She wakes up scared and sees that black lady on the window.
When she goes to check, the lady calls her name from behind. Ella ignores it and closes the
window, but then she hears the sound of a woman crying, fearing that she closes her ears and sees
the black lady there. The lady then leaves there and Ella starts following her. She sees that she
goes inside the confessional. But just as she is about to check, Jack and Jessie walk out of there.
Later, Ella sees the photo of the same lady. Just then Selya comes over and Ella asks her
about the woman in the photo. Selya explained that she was Veronica, Amara's younger sister
who committed suicide because of shame from being raped by the mansion gardener Jaime.
Jaime was then burned to death by people close to the family
Now that night, Anding takes them to see the personal cemetery of
the mansion where he shows them the graves of Amara and Veronica. Later,
Adrian overhears Jacob's friends that he only likes Ella to make Megan jealous. That night,
Ella, Faye, and Adrian were terrorized by whom they thought was a ghost,
only for them to find out that it was another prank pulled by Megan and her clique.
Adrain here reveals that Jacob is using Ella to make Megan jealous. The argument ensues
into a violent fight, which was stopped by an angry Miss Gonzalez and Miss Taas.
Then Miss Gonzalez tells them that now they are not allowed to attend the remaining
activities in the retreat and instead serve detention by cleaning the whole vicinity.
Later that night, when Ella goes out to throw the garbage,
she is haunted by the ghost of Jamie and ended up fainting in fright.
Thinking it was another prank pulled by Megan, Miss Gonzalez says that to fix them all,
they have decided they all will stay for another day in the mansion to work out their differences.
Now the next day, Ella confessed to Adrian that she has the ability to see ghosts and
when she was younger, caused her father to be killed, for which she blamed herself.
Here Jacob is also listening to these things from outside.
That night Megan and the group decide to hunt ghosts but Jacob refuses to join them and leaves.
Ella warns them that it is not a good idea and something bad may happen to them.
Now after they leave, the rest decide to leave Megan's cellphone plugged in
a battery pack in the confessional in hopes that they will record The Black Lady's voice.
A storm hits the town and causes a power outage
the next morning while water begins to flood the mansion.
That night, Steve remembered Megan's phone and asked if she has already retrieved it. He goes
to get it alone while the others were fixing candles and putting buckets in leaking areas.
Father Anthony noticed Allison, Steve, and Jack's disappearance and Jessie volunteered
to look for them. Now all of them are checking the leakage when suddenly all the windows are opened
and A chandelier suddenly dropped on the floor and injured Father Anthony's legs
rendering him immobile. Jessie found Jack who was revealed to be cheating on her with Allison.
On the confessional, Steve retrieves Megan's phone and decides to listen to if there were
voices recorded. He Listens to the recording and gets frightened when Jaime's ghost appeared
pointing at something. He tried to escape but was caught by another violent ghost.
His tongue was then severed and he was killed. Jessie stumbles into Steve's dead body,
Seeing they all get panicked, and bring him back to the house. Jacob finds Megan's cell phone in
Steve's pocket, which he gives to Miss Gonzalez and she goes to find the signal. While making
the call, Ms. Gonzalez accidentally listened to Veronica's voice recording and Jaime appeared
pointing at something. Ms. Gonzalez suffered from an asthma attack and ordered Jacob to
grab her inhaler. Faye stays with Ms. Gonzalez and decides to listen to the voice recording as well.
Jaime appeared once again pointing at something. Suddenly, the ghost who killed Steve appeared and
threw Faye and Ms. Gonzalez to a wall injuring them severely. Ella and the others hear their
screams and when they ran to help them, they find their corpses with their tongues ripped out.
Jacob told everybody that he saw Ms. Gonzalez freaking out over something
she heard on the phone. Father Anthony advises them to listen
to the recorded message as they might learn something about the killings.
The recording turns out to be Veronica's confession,
stating that she committed suicide not because Jaime raped her but because they fell in love.
Veronica adds that Amara, a witchcraft practitioner,
did not approve of their relationship as she had feelings for Jaime also. Due to her practice of
sorcery, Amara influenced everyone to believe that Jaime raped her sister and burn him alive. This
led to Veronica committing suicide as she lost the love of her life. Eventually, Amara died too.
Until now, she don't stop going to the confessional to ask forgiveness for what she did.
Ella learns that anyone who hears Veronica's confession will be killed by Amara because she
did not want anybody to know the truth. Now that all of them had heard the confession, Megan says
that now they all will die. Suddenly Jaime's ghost appears and points at Amara's ghost approaching
them. Seeing her, they get scared and start running from there to save their lives. Selya and
Anding try to open the door but Amara blasts them through the glass door eventually killing them.
Ella, Adrian, and Jacob carry Father Anthony to safety, but they see that Amara is following
them. Father asks them to leave him behind stating that the Lord is with him no matter what. The trio
reluctantly leaves him and Father starts to read prayers, but it seems it was not affecting her.
Amara then disappears from there, but suddenly she attacks and kills him. On the other hand,
Megan and the others cross a flooded area outside the mansion, wherein Allison is pulled
down by a supernatural force. Jack and Jessie who noticed her disappearance, are also pulled down
and killed before they can warn Megan. Megan now alone encounters Amara surfacing up from the water
feasting on the tongues of her three friends. Seeing this, Megan starts running away in fear,
but Amara lifts her grabs her neck, and finally kills her.
Now the three remainings are hiding from Amara when Ella remembers her mother saying that her
ability to talk to spirits is a grace from God and It happened for a reason. Ella is then drawn
to a vision of the afterlife and is greeted by Veronica and Jaime. They tell her that to stop
Amara she has to take her body out of her grave and must destroy it or put it on fire. That is
the only way to put an end to Amara. She has to do it before she transforms into a human being.
The trio then heads to a private tomb in the back area of the house to exhume Amara's corpse.
Jacob and Adrain break her tomb and take out her grave and find that Amara's remains are
still inside it. Ella tells them that now they have to destroy her corpse,
and before Jacob could destroy the corpse, Amara stops him. Now seeing this, all three get very
scared and start running away, but Jacob gets injured. He asks Ella and Adrian to leave him,
after which Amara catches him and throws him on a tree, due to which he dies.
Next, the rotten hands of Amara grab Adrian's leg and pull him down to the ground, also killing him.
Now Ella is left alone and she runs to the chapel and hides inside the confessional.
Amara finds her there, But she somehow frees herself and comes out from there.
Amara then comes in front of her and starts laughing out loud. Ella tries to stop her by
showing the crucifix, but Amara is not scared of it. Then Ella stabs her in the mouth and
takes out her tongue. This causes Amara to burn and she starts screaming loudly as she dies,
Ella is blasted by the force backward, injuring her head.
Sometime later, Ella is then seen with her mom and was greeted by her younger siblings. It turned
out that Ella suffered from amnesia caused by the head injury as she did not recognize them at all.
Three months later, Ella woke up in her home to find out that her memory has returned.
Then the door of her room opens by itself and Ella, suspecting it is her mother tells
her the good news. However, the spirit of Amara appears and asks if she remembers her as well?
She then starts assaulting her, and the two fight, resulting in Ella getting mortally wounded. Amara
tells Ella that her friends are waiting for her and then she stabs her with a piece of glass.
Ella then places a rosary around her neck and uses her strength to condemn Amara back to hell.
As Amara screams and vanishes, Ella collapses unconsciously to the floor.
The camera pans up to her as she opens her eyes and the screen cuts to black. Thanks for watching.
