Yu Wenzong, an urban white-collar worker, accidentally inherits the old "Huaiyuan" house left by his grandfather in Qingshui Town. Little does he know that this dilapidated house is a curse that has haunted the Yu family for decades. When he first entered Huaiyuan, he was drawn into the fog of terror by the copper dressing box in the hall, his grandfather's cinnabar diary with distorted handwriting, and the sound of combing hair from the west wing late at night - the woman in the red coat of the Republic of China recorded in the diary, the black hair seeping through the door crack, and the case of an unknown female corpse near Huaiyuan three years ago were all closely related to the strange rumors of "looking for a stand-in named Yu." As Yu Wenzong deeply explored the secrets of Huaiyuan, he discovered the truth about his grandfather's sudden retreat to Qingshui Town, the ubiquitous shadow in red in the old house, and the fateful entanglement that he had long been involved in. Should we escape from this life-devouring old house, or uncover the root of the curse and break the cycle? In fear and struggle, Yu Wenzong walked step by step towards the ultimate confrontation with the woman in the red coat.
