Synopsis
Set largely in the dark and eerie campus of the Arts Academy, White Lady’s story centers on PEARL (Pauleen Luna), a simple and smart girl from the province who just arrived in the city to study college and the clique of students led by MIMI (Iwa Moto), a pretty, rich and popular girl who gets by through bullying others. Her minions include the basketball jock JOSHUA (Jason Abalos), the painter and MIMI wanna-be EVA (Katarina Perez), the film and photography major JOWEE (Glaiza De Castro), and the troublemaker and band frontman HECTOR (Ketchup Eusebio).

PEARL enrolls in the Arts Academy with her best friend and longtime buddy JONATHAN (Gian Carlo), who has a secret admiration for her. Upon their entry into the school, MIMI takes PEARL and JONATHAN into her fold, befriending them so as to get favors from the smart and studious PEARL. But PEARL sees right through her. Soon after, PEARL and JONATHAN becomes estranged, as he becomes seduced and swayed by the glamour of the “in” crowd.

For reasons she cannot explain nor understand, PEARL is haunted by the ghost of a white lady said to be frequenting the school grounds. Intrigued and determined to solve the mystery, she decides to explore and hears about the story of CHRISTINA (Angelica Panganiban), a simple girl driven to hiding by MIMI’s pompousness. PEARL immediately feels an affinity towards CHRISTINA, being on the receiving end of MIMI’s pranks herself.

The haunting worsens when PEARL lands the highly-coveted lead role in the school play. She also receives the brunt of MIMI’s ire as MIMI wanted the role for herself. Plus, PEARL develops a relationship with ROBBIE (JC De Vera), the rich, athletic and most popular boy in school, whom MIMI desires.

In a series of intense ghostly appearances, the white lady manifests herself to the “in” group, letting them experience her wrath one by one. PEARL is caught in the middle of it all. Later on she discovers a deadly and horrifying secret that connects her, her schoolmates and the white lady that terrorizes their school.
