Our take
A journalist is haunted by the people caught up in stories she sensationalised. The ghosts are frightening, and the violence includes bloody injuries and children in danger. We would wait until MA 15+ for a teen already comfortable with horror.
Uplifting themes
Truth and responsibility toward people in the news get a late moral poke. The lesson arrives wrapped in punishment more than repair Vivian is talented and sympathetic, yet her ambition hurt others. Allies around her try to help while the past closes in
Story (may spoil tone)
Vivian Vera is a multi-awarded journalist with a dark past. She sensationalized some of her breaking news for her ambition. Her distortion of the truth ruined lives, and these lives have begun to haunt Vivian – they want her to join them... or else they will kill everyone around her who helped her in the lie.
