Synopsis
When Leila and her friends arrive at Maraheim University, they expect lectures and late nights. Instead, they find whispers in the dark, music with no source, and eyes watching from the shadows. A girl appears at the piano. A friend fades into silence. And the walls begin to breathe. As reality twists and grief resurfaces, Leila is pulled into a story that blurs the lines between the living and the dead, memory and madness. The Girl in the Auditorium is a chilling, emotional journey through trauma, friendship, and the echoes we carry. Some ghosts aren't here to haunt—they're waiting to be heard.
