Hana jumps at the chance for adventure and life at Benten is everything she ever dreamed of--magic, mystical creatures, and making a new best friend in fellow new student Yoomi. But before long, Hana's dream becomes a nightmare. Something is haunting the halls, and a series of horrifying attacks leave everyone wondering--is Benten cursed?
