Li Lan, daughter of a genteel but bankrupt family, has few prospects. Then she receives a proposal from the wealthy and powerful Lim family to become a ghost bride for the family's only son, who recently died under mysterious circumstances. Rarely practiced, traditional ghost marriage is used to placate a restless spirit. Li Lan would have a home for the rest of her days, but at a terrible price.
