After overcoming Cloudy Beach, Yuki learns that a different game that took place around the same time ended in catastrophe, with only a handful of survivors. While investigating alongside Keito, a player she met in a previous game, she finds out about the rise of another psychopath. Amid this dilemma and more, Yuki takes on a game in which the living and dead meet: Halloween Night.

Series Overview: Yuuki wakes up to find herself wearing a maid’s uniform in a strange manor. After wandering into the dining room, she comes across five other girls, each in the exact same outfit. Soon, the girls learn that the manor is brimming with lethal weapons and an array of deadly traps…and that they can only escape by playing the most gruesome of games. As the terrifying truth sets in, each girl’s face goes pale—except Yuuki’s. Why? Because this isn’t her first go-round.
