Love beyond the graves is a common theme in Chinese dramas and this is one such unrequited supernatural love story. A young scholar escaping his cruel uncle moves to a haunted house. At the same, a beautiful girl and her mother also take refuge in the same dwelling. After the mother dies, the couple falls in love and for a while live happily together. Until, of course, the dastardly uncle ruins the couple's small piece of bliss, heart-wrenching and spooky.
