Premise[]
The Light Music Club is eagerly preparing for a long-awaited overnight practice session at an abandoned music hall nestled deep in the countryside. Fueled by rumors of the hall's history as a once-renowned concert venue, Yui, Mio, Ritsu, Tsumugi, and Azusa are excited to immerse themselves in the atmosphere and perfect their music.
But as the sun sets, strange occurrences begin to plague the group. Unseen hands pluck at guitar strings, eerie whispers echo through the halls, and chilling melodies play themselves on the grand piano. As the night deepens, they uncover a dark secret: the music hall was once the site of a tragic fire during a concert, and the restless spirits of the musicians who perished have been waiting for new performers to finish their symphony.
Bound by the curse of the hall, the girls must now play a deadly game of music to appease the spirits and survive the night. But as tensions rise and reality blurs, they realize the spirits aren’t just after their music—they’re after their lives.
Will their bond as friends and bandmates be enough to overcome the terror, or will the Light Music Club become an eternal part of the haunted hall's sinister legacy?
