Plot
Haunted House Secrets follows the protagonist A-Ze, who decides to sell the haunted house he has lived in for many years in order to raise money for his younger sister Hsin Ai's heart transplant. However, by chance, he becomes a rookie real estate agent at "Yi-Sheng Realty", a shop specializing in selling haunted houses. This haunted house specialty store is home to a group of partners with distinct personalities, who partners with a psychic team to resolve the lingering obsessions, regrets, and grudges of restless spirits attached to these homes.
Production
Director Lester Hsi stated that his creative inspiration came partly from the South Korean film Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds. He pointed out that as an Asian country that also values funeral rites and folk beliefs, Taiwan also has the cultural foundation to develop its own narratives on the themes of life and death. Hsi believes that in addition to creating a suspenseful atmosphere, the work also hopes to convey emotional warmth and guide the audience to view themes such as haunted houses and the dead from different perspectives.
The principal photography of the film began in March 2024.
Release
On 27 June 2025, the first two episodes of Haunted House Secrets premiered at the Taipei Film Festival at Zhongshan Hall.
