Manga UP! Global describes the Corpse Party: Blood Covered manga:
A stormy night. A harmless ghost story. A silly pact intended to symbolize their friendship. But before the students of class 2-9 at Kisaragi Academy even know what’s happening, they’ve been swept up in a living nightmare that threatens to consume them all. When the spirits emerge, will even their friends be left to hear them scream…?
