[Folk horror + eerie and uncanny]
The living buy years of life, the dead run up debts. Venture into the underworld at night, and every step brings calamity.
Xu Qi'an is an apprentice at a coffin shop in Jiangcheng. He is the last spirit-walker in the city, and every job he takes is a matter of life and death.
He seals the souls of the unjustly dead into coffins, and borrows years of life from the underworld on behalf of the living.
In the coffin shop at midnight, the sound of fingernails scraping against wood rings out.
A spirit-walker's rule: once the coffin nails are in, it must never be opened again. If it is, blood will be shed.
Not bad, quite interesting
