The Cursed Bronze Mirror
Electrician Wang Lei returns to his remote mountain village to visit his grandmother, Chen Xiulian, who has been acting strangely. On the very night he arrives, he stumbles upon the village's eerie taboo: a bronze mirror hanging on a locust tree at the village entrance. Legend says anyone who looks into it will be cursed. His grandmother's ramblings, the village chief's warnings, and the villagers' hostility all point back to one woman — Lin Wanlian, who hanged herself at the village supply station twenty years ago. Ever since, stories of a vengeful spirit in the mirror and a ghost haunting the well have haunted the entire village. Wang Lei doesn't believe in superstition. He's determined to find the truth. But a string of terrifying events awaits him: shattered mirrors thrown into his house, strange shadows on his night-time surveillance footage, and a woman's face appearing in the well water. Every sign suggests the curse has come for him. During his investigation, Wang Lei finds an ancient bronze mirror hidden under his grandmother's bed — one linked to Lin Wanlian. Inside the wall, he discovers another dressing mirror carved with her name. Meanwhile, anonymous threats warn him he'll be "the next victim." Using his sharp eye and logic as an electrician, Wang Lei pieces together the clues. He discovers that every "supernatural" event originates from hallucinogenic herbs prepared by the village doctor, Li Jianguo. Finally, during a carefully staged public confrontation, Lin Wanlian — whom the villagers believed was a ghost — appears alive and tells her story. A horrifying truth emerges, woven from ignorant prejudice, twisted love, violence, and drug control. The so-called ghost in the mirror was never real. It was only a reflection of the evil in human hearts.
