About
"A dead teen investigates her own murder"
A teenage girl wakes up dead with no memory of how she died, only to find herself trapped as a ghost inside her own high school. Bound to the halls alongside other student spirits stuck in limbo, she starts piecing together the mystery of her own murder while adjusting to the strange rules of the afterlife. It's a moody teen mystery with a supernatural twist, blending YA drama beats with a slow-burn whodunit, carried mostly by its central performance and eerie school-set atmosphere.
Watch it for
the central mystery of a girl solving her own murder from beyond the grave.
Maybe skip if
you want fast-paced plotting rather than a slow-drip teen mystery.
Written by our AI editor to help you decide, spoiler-free by design.
