The Tunnel Curse

Located in Taipei, the Xinhai Tunnel connects the bustling Da’an District with the culturally rich Wenshan District. However, due to its proximity to a funeral home and cemetery, it has earned the infamous title of ‘Most Haunted Road,’ with ghost stories emerging from every corner. Among the chilling tales, the most well-known are the eerie ‘Ghost Wall’ encounters. Stories include taxi drivers who unknowingly pick up ghostly passengers and are unable to exit the tunnel, and motorcyclists who, after seeing a long-haired woman by the roadside, find themselves trapped in the tunnel. Often referred to as the ‘Tunnel of the Dead,’ it has become one of Taiwan’s most famous urban legends. After years of research and preparation, the haunting story of the Xinhai Tunnel is finally being brought to the screen, revealing the chilling origins behind its supernatural phenomena.
