Playing Ep 05

Summary:

A man burdened by economic difficulty resides with his beloved grandchildren and a relative under the same roof. Desperation is mirrored in his day-to-day struggle until Krittaya, a woman acquainted with an ancient family legend, steps into his life. She divulges a story of a curse that has plagued her lineage, believing that the man's connection to his ancestors, who were versed in mystical ceremonies, may offer a sliver of hope.

Although the man is initially hesitant to immerse himself in the obscure world of rituals he knows little about, the prospect of financial gain sways his judgment. Coaxed by necessity, he ventures into the arcane, agreeing to carry out rites that he hopes will lift the daunting curse.

This journey does not come without its price. Upon embarking on the ceremonial path, the man is entrusted with an enigmatic golden box—an artifact tied to the ceremony. But with its arrival, a series of ominous events unfolds. Ghostly apparitions plague his presence, his grandchildren begin to endure inexplicable afflictions, and a palpable dread enfolds the family.

Faced with the escalating supernatural chaos, the man is thrust into a frenetic quest. He must delve deeper into the esoteric knowledge of his forebears, pushing against time and the encroaching malevolent forces. The curse must be broken, not merely to release a family from its ensnaring legacy but to shield his grandchildren from the dark forces that threaten to consume them. His resolve is tested on this treacherous path, where the line between the corporeal and the spectral blurs, as he races against fate to thwart an ancestral hex.
