We Agreed to Make a Horror Movie, So Why Are the Dead Volunteering to Be Reborn?

My name is Chen Mo. I am twenty-six years old, a down-and-out director buried in debt.

In a modern city where supernatural phenomena have just begun to appear, the authorities establish a Supernatural Image Group to investigate in secret.

I take on a folk horror film, only to discover that every background actor on the crew is a real ghost. After filming the scene in which a female ghost climbs out of a well, three corpses crawl out of the well in the real world.

I discover that the plot captured by the camera becomes a fated script that the underworld must follow.

Whatever we film really happens.

Zhao Qingleng leads the investigation. I claim it is special effects while secretly testing the limits of my ability.

A ghost begs me to finish the final scene and send her into reincarnation, making me the first director in history to direct a film for ghosts.

But the more I film, the heavier the karma becomes, and the laws of heaven have already set their sights on me.
