Strange Tales of Republican-Era China: The White-Bone Lady's Revenge

Alternate-history Republican era [Revenge + supernatural horror + suspense, karmic entanglement in a past life, obsessive love in this one] Shocking! Shanghai's most beautiful woman is actually a skeleton spirit! She feeds on moonlight and drinks resentment. The calamity-bringing imperial consort, sentenced to death, possesses a corpse and returns to the world of the living, only to discover that the ninth year of this Republican era is more like hell than her grave. The evil art of mutilating people to make living spectacles appears at the city gates. The black dogs in the performance are actually a mother and daughter struggling to survive. At midnight, a ghost train quietly replaces the real one. The dead board, and the living get off. Once you enter the realm of the dead, you may never return. The vengeful spirit in the mirror at the Paramount absorbs beautiful women's vital essence. Whose face is reflected in the glass? In response to a wrongfully slain woman's plea, the Bone Lady devours her soul and is reborn, vowing to avenge her! The hypocritical mother-in-law can't sleep at night, the scheming cousin traps herself in her own web, and the scumbag brother-in-law is slowly heading toward ruin and disgrace. On her path to revenge, she unexpectedly finds herself relentlessly pursued by a cold-faced young marshal. His gaze burns as if it can see through her skin. “Madam, do you think we were fated in a past life?” She smiles behind her fan, ghostly flames flickering in her eyes. “Why don't you guess, Young Marshal? Is my skin more beautiful, or... are my bones?”
