Do you think that what you are stepping on is just dirt?
Chen Yuan, an urban investigative reporter who only believes in evidence, is forced to return to his hometown that has been dusty for many years to deal with a strange "ghost marriage" murder case. He thought it was just an ordinary interview, but he didn't know that he was stepping step by step into the bloody fateful trap of his family.
In the backyard of the old house, the ancient well sealed by a boulder oozed blood every night.
Beside the well, a grave for the living was erected, facing his window.
The notes left behind by grandpa record inhuman folk taboos; behind the gentle photos of grandma is the cruel truth of being reduced to a "township object". When he was forced to "forge a fate" with the enemy of the Republic of China, and when the body of his lover who had been missing for many years emerged from the bottom of the well, Chen Yuan discovered:
This well never only feeds on dead people.
What it eats is blood, marriage, and desperate protection spanning three generations.
But now, the thing underground has woken up. It followed the water veins and spread the curse throughout the town. The living people began to mutate, and the shadows began to kill people.
Fifty years ago, my grandparents barely suppressed it at the cost of losing their souls.
Fifty years later, it was Chen Yuan's turn to make a choice——
Are you following the ancestral precepts and becoming the next "sacrifice" to be filled into the well?
Or smash this man-eating reincarnation, even if it releases greater terror?
When the well water began to pour in, and when the ancestral graves cracked, he held the rusty key tightly and walked towards the source deeper than hell...
