It takes roughly five minutes to hate every character in
Seance. Written and directed by Simon Barrett (evidently talented considering his credits on
You’re Next and
The Guest, two of the best horror films of their respective years released), the story centers on a group of high school seniors attending the all-girls Edelvine Academy who, while admittedly acting their age, enjoy playing pranks on one another and trying to summon spirits. Notably, they try to reach the spirit of a prior classmate who had committed suicide in her dorm bathroom. However, after the spooky aftermath is revealed to be another scheme by ringleader Alice (Inanna Sarkis), leaving Kerrie ((Megan Best) feeling bullied and frustrated, she runs off only to be found dead a few minutes later by what appears to be intentionally jumping out a window.
