When Kisaragi Academy's class 2-9 ventured to the hellish, Heavenly Host Elementary, not many survived. Those unfortunate ones were doomed to remain there forever — eternally trapped within the walls and forced to re-live the pain they felt at the exact moment of their death. Worse still was the fact that all memories and records of their physical existence were completely wiped from the Earth, and only those who survived were able to mourn their loss. The last hope for reversing these fates lived with the Book of Shadows. However, Ayumi Shinozaki's attempts to employ the power claimed another victim and the book was lost forever — or was it? An acquaintance of one of the deceased has shown up with a spiritual photograph, which suggests that the Book of Shadows is now residing in the Heavenly Host. Now, Ayumi is determined to find it, so she can attempt to bring back her friends again. The final chapter to the Corpse Party saga is here, and it's time to return to the Heavenly Host Elementary to hopefully bring back your friends.
