Innocent childhood superstitions …

But someone at the Trask Academy of Performing Arts is taking things one deadly step further when the campus is rocked with the deaths of some of its star students.

Layna Curtis, a talented, popular senior, soon realizes that the seemingly random, accidental deaths of her friends aren't random—or accidents—at all. Someone has taken the childhood games too far, using the idea of superstitions to dispose of their classmates. As Layna tries to convince people of her theory, she uncovers the terrifying notion that each escalating, gruesome murder leads closer to its final victim: her.

Will Layna's opening night also be her final bow?

This totally has echoes of the movies Scream which works out great if you love that type of movie genre.  I do and I really got involved with this story i was screaming, jumping and just wondering if anyone was gonna make it out alive.  It a slasher type story and their a bit of predictablity of how the story will play out but once again your dealing with a formula of slash kill in gruesome ways.  The epilogue really does set us up perfectly for the next book which i am eager to jump into.
