Chen Azhen was an ordinary antique dealer, living an ordinary life until he found a mysterious ancient hosta in a thrift store and gave it to his wife Zhang Xiaohui as a birthday gift. However, this hairpin accidentally awakened his mother-in-law, Zhang Han, who had been sleeping for many years.
Zhang Han is not an ordinary woman, but a zombie that has been sleeping for hundreds of years. She is elegant and knowledgeable, but she hides unknown secrets. As they got along, Chen Azhen discovered that Zhang Han did not wake up voluntarily, but was forcibly awakened by some force. What's even more frightening is that his wife Zhang Xiaohui seems to have known about it for a long time and is even planning something secretly...
When Zhang Han and Chen Azhen gradually fell in love, Zhang Xiaohui finally took off her disguise and revealed her true purpose - she needed the blood of zombies to complete the immortality ritual, and Zhang Han was the perfect sacrifice. Faced with his wife's betrayal and Zhang Han's life-and-death crisis, Chen Azhen must, with the help of Taoist priest Lao Wang, break into the taboo ritual site and fight against the evil magic.
In the end, Chen Azhen faced a choice: follow the mission of the night watchman to completely eliminate zombies, or risk trying the purification ritual in ancient books to save his beloved Zhang Han? In this love that spans life and death, can true love defeat the curse?
