A similar situation happened with my very best friend going through recruitment. There were girls from her hometown that were awful to her in high school (all over some dumb boy) and just to torture her before recruitment told her that she was blacklisted. Though she was very nervous when it came time to visit their house the first day of recruitment, she felt fine after she realized a couple things:
1. They won't humiliate you - no active sorority member will be anything but courteous during recruitment events. It won't be mentioned, and they aren't all going to stare you down or be rude to you. They would risk other PNMs taking notice to the tension and getting a bad vibe from their sorority as a whole if they were seen giving dirty looks or anything like that.
2. The worst that could happen - So if they do have enough pull in their sorority the worst that would happen is you wouldn't get invited back to their house the next round. Honestly though, would you want to go back anyway?
3. If anything, they can only affect your chances in their sorority - Even if they have friends in other houses, them "not liking you" isn't going to hold any weight in all the other houses. Have recs for all the sororities, be charming, and try to stay positive!
