I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU

“Someone’s idea of a high school prank is about to turn very deadly!”

When a New England high schooler is mysteriously murdered, the town blames Sarah, the new girl who recently moved into a purportedly haunted house and who they believe to be the reincarnation of a witch who was burned at the stake 300 years ago.
