A Halloween prank triggers Chloe's fatal heart failure, prompting her to abandon her betrayers.
Chloe enters a haunted house at the urging of her brother, boyfriend, and best friend, who record her panic as entertainment. The terror induces cardiac arrest, landing her in the operating room. While the three men collapse in guilt outside, Chloe survives, revokes all contact, and departs the country. Their belated apologies and a kneeling proposal arrive only after she has erased them from her life.
