What happens

Wishing Stairs (Korean: 여우계단: 여고괴담 세번째 이야기; RR: Yeougyedan: yeogogoedam sebeonjjae iyagi; lit. 'Vulpine Stairs: the Third Ghost Story in a Girls' High') is a 2003 South Korean horror film. It is the third installment of the Whispering Corridors film series set in girls high schools, but, as with all films in the series, is unrelated to the others; apart from a song being sung in one scene that is a pivotal plot point in Voice.
