In 1998, in the V8 video of eight members of the Lu family hiking in the Dakeng Scenic Area in Taichung, a little girl in red clothes and red trousers with a wrinkled face appeared out of thin air. Since then, three people in the family died violently and two went crazy. This video has become the most horrifying urban ghost story in Taiwan. At the same time, an old woman disappeared here, with no one alive or dead.
Twenty-six years later, independent documentary director Lin Yan led a photographer into the restricted area of Dakeng in order to find out the truth about his grandmother's disappearance. He was originally a staunch atheist, but on his first night in the mountains, strange things happened one after another - a knock on the door without anyone in the middle of the night, a ghost in red clothes clinging to the glass outside the window, and a strange figure appearing out of thin air in the camera film, all of which were exactly the same as the little girl in red back then.
What's even more terrifying is that strange red marks appeared on the necks of the companions, and they were entangled by the mountain charm, and their lives were hanging by a thread. However, the mountain evil in Dakeng has not yet been calmed down, and a series of hanging cases have occurred along the coast of Lukang. There are rope marks on the necks of the deceased. The evil spirit of "sending meat rice dumplings" that has been lost for many years has quietly appeared in the world.
There is a red-clothed evil spirit in the mountains, and a rice dumpling evil in the sea. These two taboo and strange things originate from two evil spirits of the same origin that were forcibly separated a hundred years ago. As the investigation deepened, Lin Yan was shocked to realize that from the moment he stepped into the pit, he had been trapped in a fateful loop that spanned twenty-six years - he was the baby who was held by his grandmother in the V8 video and luckily escaped being kidnapped.
The evil rice dumplings that had not yet been delivered back then had to be sent away by him personally; the resentment in red that had not been calmed down back then had to be put to an end by him personally. Buried folk taboos, dusty sacrifice secrets, man-made sacrificial rituals, and the truth about grandma's sacrifice
