Plot

Legend has it that around the 15th day of the seventh lunar month every year, the dead ghosts will wander around the world, go to places they were familiar with during their lifetime, and evoke the long-forgotten grudges of the ghosts.

Freshman An Lan and others live in a dormitory that has been dusty for many years, haunted and where people have died. On the night of the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, various strange things happen one after another. The film does not have all kinds of scary ghost face props, gloomy environments, and enclosed spaces to simply scare people. However, in the seemingly elegant and quiet 15th day of the seventh lunar month, with the arrival of the traditional ghost festival "15th day of the seventh lunar month", several young and beautiful female college students began to suffer from pervasive fear, and died one by one in strange and terrifying ways, which is heartbreaking.
