As a blizzard rages outside, strange things are afoot in the schools hallways, and legends of the mysterious Beast of Bathory a big cat rumoured to room the moors outside the school run wild.
Yet when the girls Matron goes missing its clear that something altogether darker is to blame and that theyll have to stick together if they hope to survive.
