The unexpected and gruesome death of a student threatens the existence of an old Catholic school for girls. Pat Consolacion, the school guidance counselor, involves herself with the students in the hopes of helping them cope, and at the same time uncover the mysteries of the student’s death. Most students suspect of the strict and borderline abusive Mother Alice, who also threatened Pat’s tenure in the school because of her continuous meddling with the case. But Pat’s unusual talents lead her to knowing Eri, a former student who's been watching the whole school for years. Piece by piece, Pat uncovers the secret of the school and the monster that it nurtured for the past century.

Why it matters

A slow-burning supernatural mystery that blends gothic Catholic horror with a Filipino folk spirit lurking beneath.

  • Anchored by Pat Consolacion’s steady, grounded performance as a counselor navigating trauma and secrets.
  • The Catholic school setting doubles as a claustrophobic character, steeped in oppressive ritual and whispered menace.
  • For fans of atmospheric hauntings with a cultural twist, Eerie taps into regional folklore rarely seen in global horror.
  • Practical effects and unsettling imagery evoke a creeping dread rather than cheap jump scares, rewarding patience and close attention.
