Have you seen it?
Its good.
=]
yup yup yup.
Elijah and Elisha and their parents make up the Veritas Project team, which takes on cases handpicked by the president (Veritas is the Latin word for truth). In Hangman's Curse, Veritas Project takes on a high school where students who were perfectly fine are struck with sudden disease, which moves in horrible stages over time. Soon some of these students are dead, supposedly by the curse of Abel Frye, a legendary student who hung himself at the high school years ago. Strange evidence, a group of student witches, and scientific debate lead the plot in unpredictable twists to a climax...
Plot Summary
IF YOU HAVENT SEEN THE MOVIE AND ARE PLANNING ON SEEING IT THEN READ NO FURTHER:::[/size]
Straws filled with sugar are found in the property of the stricken students, and their dog (Max) travelling with Veritas Project recognises a strange scent all over the school. Slow chanting of students' names is recorded during an underground séance of outcasts. In the end, it was spiders (the cross-breeding of the female African Spotted Wolf spider and the male brown recluse). They were trapped in the straws, and pheromone was spread on dollar bills, which were used to get the spider to the target. The bitten student began hallucinating Abel Frye, and fell into coma-like stages at the hospital later. Then, due to unbelievably fast reproduction, the school is overrun by the deadly spiders, and Elisha is left among them underground by the student who masterminded the whole thing. A spider expert shows up, with an antidote, saving Elisha from multiple bites after she is rescued. Abel Frye turns out to be the name of a ship that lost its entire crew when it was overrun by the same spiders.
The book explores the emotions of highschool students who all want to fit in. The jocks find exceptance among their peers by picking on and beating up the outcasts. The outcasts retaliate by "setting Able Frye" on their tormenters and thus gain a fear and respect from the other students.
Its good.
