Bad in every way. Don't waste your time.

Only the first episode is good. The rest is just like cinema students shorts with zero budget... the stories are bad, acting is awful, special effects are poor, not scary at all. Even the opening looks cheap.

Asian cuture is so rich in scary stories and legends, they had so much material to make something creepy. If you are looking for a little insight of each one of the cultures maybe just look at the titles and then Google about it. If you like Asian soap operas maybe this is for you? I don't know I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I cannot believe this thing has 2 seasons. I gave it a shot and watched 6 episodes. Only the first one is salvageable.
