Too Many Ghosts Nowadays

In this episode, we dive into one of the most infamous urban legends from Shanghai, Linjia lane no 37.

What started as the discovery of a grisly crime scene in 1956 would soon take a turn for the stranger as one of the bodies found had actually been pronounced dead 5 years ago. Later, testimonies from neighbours would uncover people who didn't age or strange symbols being drawn on their windows. And as if things couldn't get any weirder, floorplans would reveal a hidden room within the building, one that was strangely determined not to let anyone in.
