- Synopsis
- ‘Jersey Girl’ is a minor idol group comprised of three members, Ayane, Nanami, and Mayuko, who host a television show about the paranormal. For their next assignment, the girls visit an abandoned nursing home deep in the mountains. The premise of the show is to test the girls’ courage, with the bravest girl winning. Video recorder in hand, Ayane is the first to set foot into the forsaken complex. As she enters a room and approaches a bed, she feels an unexplainable presence. Though she survives, her nightmare is just about to begin.
  The terror is real and though the girls think this is just another job, they are in for a reality-altering experience with no safe escape guaranteed. The girls not only struggle with the paranormal but also with each other, as animosity has grown between the ‘Jersey Girl’ members. The haunting repercussions of entering the abandoned building only worsen when the spirits feed off the jealousy and poison they carry in their hearts for each other. Will the girls band together and uncover the truth about the abandoned nursing home or will the ghosts they have awakened consume their souls?
