Not just the patients are the victims but also some doctors inside the hospital. Later the story reveals Melissa to be a psycho killer affected by her past and now follows the 3AM crime that happened to them long time ago when she was still young. She became insane and now she also killed her boyfriend and takes him to her dream house as she introduced him to her to the ghost of her elder sister Angel and her mother Aling Rosing. 

The first part of the story “Salamin” (mirror), Kristine plays Angel, a beautiful young family breadwinner whose only aspiration is to see her family live a better life. So, when her father left her and her mother Aling Rosing (Cherry Pie Picache) and younger sister Nina (Celine Lim) for another woman, Angel decided to move into a new place. The house was old and affordable so she decided to get it for them. After few days living in the house they notice strange things and apparitions of someone whom they suspected died on that house before them.

As she discovers an old mirror, she makes a wish at the stroke of midnight by the candlelight-to know her future with someone but nothing appeared.
