During an A2 Media class, it had been announced that the students would have the task of creating a media horror trailer contributing to 50% of their final grades. And were then assigned to their groups consisting of Lucy, Marilyn, Charlie and (Tanya) Riley. Being so enthusiastic about death, horror and the afterlife, Marilyn is excited and has the perfect location for the group to begin filming outside a deserted church in the local area which is apparently haunted. So she arranges a time and the place for the group to meet for the first day of filming.

When arriving at the church, the group decide to go to the back of the church in an attempt to find something mystical as well as being the perfect location to film, believing that they would get a very high mark for the setting. They explore the area but Lucy does not feel comfortable and is insistent that they change location. With a large amount of convincing, Marilyn realised that there may be a more convenient place to shoot the film in a second location- an abandoned house. Again, the group reschedule another time and place to meet for the second day of shooting.

When the group is gathered together, for the second time, one of the group members was missing as Charlie did not come, assuming that she was lazy not unenthusiastic about the task altogether, Riley ensured that the group continued to shoot without her. (The entire group was unaware that Charlie has been mysteriously killed in her home- when her body had been carried out of her house and into an ambulance).

The group explore the house and realise that it is the best for shooting having everyone agree. As Marilyn, goes into the bathroom to look for props for a 'bathroom scene' the door swings shut behind her and locks itself so she is stuck in. the light starts to flicker so she cannot see where she is going, there are loud screams coming from the bathroom which alerts everyone then there is complete silence.

Riley is at the scene with Lucy closely behind and kicks the door down to find Marilyn murdered on the floor of the bathroom and blood smeared on the walls and floor. Panic breaks out between he last group members and they become suspicious of each other having an idea that one of them is a 'killer'. They both go into a room and sit down together in silence. There is a power failure where the lights switch on an off continuously and each time the injuries from Riley increase until she as seen as dead, all that is heard is screams. With the hand held camera that the student are using, in night mode Lucy's hand stretches towards the light switch, and as she turns it on, there is a flashback to the doctors office at the place where she had been diagnosed.

On may 17th, at aged 9, Lucy Damon was diagnosed with a condition that caused her to become extremely violent at any given moment for a short period of time, then returning back to her original state afterwards, unaware of any incident that had previously taken place. Due to the fact that her mother had died in a horrific accident being brutally murdered by her father and forced to live in a foster home.

Finally, there is a close up to Lucy's face where she smirks, then another close up of her eyes.
