Corpse Party: Tortured Souls

A school ritual opens a portal to a blood‑soaked nightmare where friendship battles relentless, vengeful horror.

When a group of high‑school friends gathers after hours for a farewell ritual, they unwittingly unleash a cursed charm that links their school to the ruins of Heavenly Host Academy, a long‑dead elementary school drenched in blood. The moment the paper dolls touch the floor, the building itself folds into a nightmarish parallel realm where the walls bleed and the corridors echo with the screams of forgotten victims. Trapped inside, the nine students must navigate a labyrinth of locked classrooms, haunted lockers, and grotesque apparitions that stalk them at every turn. Each member confronts twisted versions of their own secrets, while the vengeful spirits demand retribution for the atrocities that sealed their fate. As the group’s bonds fray under relentless torment, they discover that escape isn’t just a matter of finding the right door—it requires confronting the sins of the past and making impossible sacrifices. Some will choose redemption, others will succumb to the darkness that feeds on their fear. The OVA’s four episodes blend visceral gore with a relentless mystery, delivering a suffocating atmosphere that never lets the viewer breathe easy. Corpse Party: Tortured Souls is a brutal meditation on how trauma lingers, how friendship can become a lifeline—or a chain—when the dead refuse to stay buried.

Students perform a ritual that traps them in a haunted alternate dimension where they are hunted by vengeful ghosts. The series features frequent, graphic scenes of mutilation, torture, and death involving both teenagers and children.
