Tales of the Sinister and Strange

The city's neon lights conceal a boundless, sinister world.

Born with an ominous fate, Shen Yubai has walked the border between the living and the dead ever since awakening his Yin-Yang Spirit Eyes.

Vengeful spirits tailing people in stairwells, murderous domains trapped in endless loops, deadly rules hidden in legends... One bizarre case after another comes his way.

Unable to drive out evil spirits by force, he can only seek out their obsessions and break their rules, relying on accumulated yin virtue to prolong his life and fight the death sentence awaiting him at twenty-five.

With his companions, he traverses the city's darkness, and one urban legend after another comes to light. These paranormal incidents are not isolated. As the clues gradually converge, Shen Yubai realizes to his horror that the city beneath his feet is itself a gigantic prison holding back countless ghosts.

Cracks begin to appear in the prison, and countless sinister beings awaken. Beneath the cover of darkness, a crisis poised to engulf the entire city is quietly approaching.
