Plot

A film crew travels to a remote island to shoot a music video. The island is inhabited by some villagers and an eccentric police detective.

Paranormal events occur during their stay. Eerie screams are heard at night but the villagers dismiss them as wolves' howling. A strange young man is seen wandering around, asking whether they had seen someone called Ying. In addition, while shooting a scene in the water, the actresses felt something tickling their feet.

An old woman narrates a tragic story about a pair of lovers from the village who were separated from each other because the woman's father opposed the relationship — the man was burnt to death while the woman drowned herself at sea.

A mysterious feral child is revealed to be the one responsible for the screams, and the old woman recognises him as the lovers' long-lost son. A ritual is performed to put the lovers' spirits to rest and their son is adopted by the villagers.
