The Seventh-Floor Resident: Synopsis
After a family was massacred on a stormy night, the warning "Don't trust anyone wearing red shoes" became a bloodcurdling omen. Ten years later, Chen Nian, tormented by insomnia, moves into Room 702 of Changqing Apartments. The "haunted building," which was supposed to be demolished, has been plagued by strange occurrences ever since her first night there. Blood seeps through the cracks in the bricked-up wall of Room 701. The missing button for the seventh floor conceals something sinister. Scratching sounds come from inside the walls, and an old radio plays a terrifying nursery rhyme.
Rotting red shoes, bruises in the shape of fingers on a mirror, and blood-red graffiti inside a wardrobe gradually reveal the tragedy from ten years ago: the woman of the house locked her daughter in the wardrobe before slitting her throat. That girl was Chen Nian.
The property management records reveal an even more brutal truth: all the residents had been dead since 2015, and the date of birth on Chen Nian's ID card is the very day of the massacre. The elevator goes haywire, and a little ghost wearing red shoes appears in the mirror. The truth grows more horrifying by the minute.
A new tenant hears a whisper from inside the wall: "Run!" The previous tenant's move-out date was also March 26, 2015. The one wearing red shoes is searching for a replacement, and the cycle of death repeats endlessly. Chen Nian thought she was a tenant, but she is actually the ghost of someone who died ten years ago, forever trapped in the fate of the "Seventh-Floor Resident."
