A dark, paranoia-soaked supernatural horror rooted in Japanese folklore and the real tragedy of Aokigahara, where a cursed box spreads dread through an inescapable village of the damned.

One day a mysterious box arrived and a curse began to spread all over. The source of the box is 'Jukai Village'. The village is hidden in Jukai Forest, a suicide spot that once you enter it, you can never come out.
