Chronicles of the Night Walkers

In the turbulent, war-torn Republic of China, Chang Moli is a cold-blooded intelligence chief serving a warlord. A massacre that wipes out an entire household draws him into a bizarre supernatural vortex. On the surface, he investigates the case under orders. In truth, he secretly controls everything, eliminating his rivals with ruthless, unhinged methods. Zhao Xiaoxiao appears to be a frail schoolgirl, but she is a pawn planted by the mastermind. Using her innocent appearance, she lures Chang Moli step by step into a trap between yin and yang. The two scheme against each other among bones and talismans, setting deadly traps amid incense smoke and blood mist. When the truth tears away their masks, they discover they have long been caught in each other's plans. Chinese horror seeps through the streets: paper figures roam at night, and bronze mirrors devour souls. But the true horror is that the human heart is more unfathomable than any ghost. Two formidable foes face off. Who will be the last to move the pieces?
