Plot

Clare Shannon, a 17-year-old boy, is haunted by a memory of her mother's suicide. His father, Jonathan, a former compulsive musician and hoarder who dumped trash as a hobby, invented the Chinese music box and gave it as a gift. Clare intercepts one of the many inscriptions in the box as "Seven Wishes," and unknowingly hopes for Darcie, his torturers and school bullies, to "rot," at which point Darcie develops necrotizing fasciitis and put into ICU. On the same day, Clare Max's dog died at his home exploration house after being seen eaten alive by rats. Clare realizes that the box grants desire, but does not understand that her desire comes with consequences.

Clare makes a second hope for a popular boy named Paul to fall in love with him. As a result, his rich uncle died. After hearing the news of his death, Clare then hopes he will be in the will. Relatives leave everything to Clare. As a result, Mrs. Deluca, a friendly neighbor, suffered a fatal accident. Clare enlists the help of her classmate Ryan Hui for breaking the symbols. A relative named Ryan Gina helps find the meaning of the symbols that give the seven desires with consequences. Clare's fourth wish is for her father to stop being a junk diver and she soon has a personality shift. Soon after, Gina sort out the meaning of the phrase that says "When the music ends, the blood price is paid." After he warns Ryan, he dies. Ryan finds Gina's body and confronts Clare about making a wish in the music box, which she denies.

Clare makes a fifth request that she's popular, but Clare soon is unhappy with her attention and that she loses her relationship with her friends. As a consequence of that desire, Meredith was trapped in an elevator and, when the cord was locked, fell to her death.

Ryan revealed that after the seventh request was given, the music box would claim the owner's soul. Attempts to destroy the box did not work. Furthermore, since June had stolen the box, Clare lost her popularity and all the other things she had hoped for. Clare finds the box and her sixth wish is that her mother never committed suicide. Clare's mother knocked on her bedroom door with two sisters. Clare then rummaged through her mother's painting and looked at the picture of the music box. She concludes that her mother was one of the owners of the music box before and that must have led to her original suicide.

When Clare realizes his father is paying the price for the sixth desire, Clare's third desire is to return to her father's day finding the box. Preventing his father from finding the box, and removing everything that had happened, Clare then asked Ryan to bury the box. Clare believes everything is fine but she gets killed when her foster children, Darcie accidentally hit her in her car, to pay the last blood price. The music box can be heard after Clare's death, showing that the seventh desire to reverse time will be offset by his own death.

In the middle credit scene, Ryan prepares to bury the music box but becomes interested in the inscription and starts thinking.
