When her new friend Michelle's penchant for naughty schoolyard pranks turns from petty theft to potentially life-threatening attacks on other children, Rachel's visions could be the key to stopping the violence and solving the mystery of a young boy's decade-old disappearance.
Starring Mia Ford, Sammi Hanratty, Lori Heuring, Sam Jaeger, Stacy Haiduk, and Brent Sexton. Culpepper is gearing up to direct her second feature, the ghost story Clementine.
