About
Yu Mei is feeling the pressure of living under the shadow of her more successful sister. After a failed suicide attempt, she finds an abandoned statue on the street and takes it home. When she discovers it is a Kuman Thong, she accidentally makes a blood sacrifice to it, unleashing the Jaroona spirit. After the death of a few of her close friends, she enlists the help of some goofy ghost hunters to suppress the spirit, who realise they are out of their depth. They then call the BiXian for assistance, but even she isn't enough to stop the Jaroona. As a final resort, they call upon the BiXian's arch nemesis - Sadako. Now BiXian and Sadako have to put aside their differences and work together to defeat Jaroona and save You Mei.
