Maggie referred Charlotte both by her name and a special title, the mechanical girl, the rebirth of the legend from past times. Maggie, carrying a bizarre fear, told Susan, the night nurse, about the mechanical girl, who sometime in the past, glimpsed Charlotte. When the remaining eight children in the hospital were about to be relocated to St. James Hospital. Charlotte caused the train crash in the island to obstruct the departure. On the night of the train crash, Maggie warned Susan that Charlotte is agitated with the departure scenario, Charlotte then fractures Simon's leg, which left Kerry, Robert and Susan baffled, during the X-Ray, Simon had another fracture caused by Charlotte which further gave birth to fear and a series of questions that went unanswered.

The New Night Nurse[]
One of the sightings.
Two days later, Amy Nicholls, a new night nurse is appointed to the hospital and is informed about the abandonment of the 2nd floor, leaving her suspicious. However, as Amy got to know about Maggie, the legend of the mechanical girl came to light and a series of events unfold, including a minor sighting in the playroom with the blocks reading Mine, followed by a scream which left Amy and the rest of the children in fear. The event was followed by the elevator incident when Simon was about to be leave for London in the helicopter, Amy was escorting Simon to the hospital ground when the elevator malfunctioned and made it's way to the 2nd floor, both in fear thought that the mechanical girl will show up but nothing happened, as Charlotte was just giving minor indications of her presence. As days passed, these events escalated with a strange incident in the dormitory, this included Charlotte breathing heavy under the bed sheet in the dormitory, but as Amy uncovered the sheet, nothing was found except for a strange scream. These events forced Amy to visit Susan's house and was made to know about her death and the psychics she visited prior her death. These psychics informed Amy that something from the other world exists in the hospital, possibly due to her obsession. This was followed by Roy's death, when he was murdered by Charlotte in the playroom, while touching the blocks, the blocks rearranged themselves to form the words don't touch, not yours, followed by Charlottes' appearance and Roy's death.
The Revelation[]
An old picture of Mandy and Charlotte.
Roy's death set an uproar in the hospital, with Amy guided to a secret passage to the 2nd floor, by Maggie. Leaving Maggie behind, Amy discovered a photograph of Charlotte and Mandy from the 1950s along with a film reel, this was followed by the appearance of Charlotte but with Maggie out of nowhere, grabbing Amy's hand, the duo fled from the floor. Amy, at first thought that the mechanical girl was Mandy (misconceiving her with Charlotte), however after examining the footage and minor revelation from Dr. Folder, it was revealed that Charlotte was indeed, the mechanical girl and the spirit causing all the events for the past years. The evacuation process was being held, with the building collapsing due to Charlotte's agitation along with intense fractures taking place among some of the children however the havoc was stopped when Maggie sneaked off to the 2nd floor to recover her Mr. Sleepy with Amy coming to her rescue but Charlotte's agitation caused the entire floor to collapse, killing Maggie and leaving Amy with severe injuries. Charlotte then migrates to the other world, bringing an end to her spirit life.
