Set between 1971 and 1991, the film tells the story of Amanda, a young schoolgirl who has recently moved to a new school. She finds it difficult to fit into the new school, as she repeatedly has strange and terrifying dreams which lead her to conclude that there is something wrong with her school. Amanda's bunkmate and friend, Edna, warns her to stay away from the "popular kids", as anyone who gets close to them ends up hurt. Amanda discovers that the violent occurrences are the work of Madam Koi-Koi, a vengeful ghost haunting the school.[3][4][2]
