[edit] Plot

Years ago, a cruel and merciless nun turned boarding school into a living hell for her students. By punishment and pain, she wanted to banish all sin. The name of this nun was Ursula. After finding out one of the girls on the boarding school was pregnant, tried to kill the unborn child- only to be drowned by the pregnant girl and her friends.

Fifteen years after that, the pool in which the girls threw Ursula's dead body in, was emptied. Ursula's spirit was set free. And it wanted revenge. All the girls were named after a saint, and Ursula's spirit killed the (now) ladies the same way their namesake were murdered.

The girl who caused all of it- the unborn child, Eve- goes to the boarding school after her mother (the pregnant girl Ursula wanted to 'cleanse') is murdered, to find out what is going on. There, she met the other two survivors, and together with some of Eve's friends they defend themselves from Ursula's spirit whilst desperately trying to figure out how to banish the nun for once and for all.
