Synopsis

When anxious, sleep-deprived Maeve attends her AP Biology class without studying, all of her worst paranoia materialize in the form of monster teachers, demon classmates and evil projectors—Maeve is pushed to her absolute limit, and the bell can't ring fast enough. Will Maeve remember that nothing is as bad as her head makes it out to be? Or is this a diabolical daydream that she can't snap out of?
