• Tomb Watcher reimagines a classic Thai lakorn, distilling it to three characters for a tighter, eerier tale of vengeance.
• Global Ink Studios’ announcement of the film’s FrightFest 2025 selection cements its status as a chilling contender on the global horror stage.  

Chev is a grieving, heartbroken husband after his wealthy wife Lunthom dies unexpectedly. He moves around their grand villa, peacefully tucked away in the wilderness. He hovers around with just the right amount of sorrow to make you sympathize. 

Rossukhon (also known as Ros) is beautiful, curious, and dangerously smitten. And she is Chev's mistress. Soon after Lunthom’s funeral, Ros accepts Chev’s invitation to move in. 

Chev brings her to the little cottage in the middle of the wilderness. At first, Ros thought that Chev was really romantic - he wanted her for himself, away from the public prying eyes. 

Soon enough, she’s greeted by something far less charming, such as eerie whispers and chilling apparitions. And one lonely night, she found a glass coffin in the middle of the house, holding Lunthom’s perfectly preserved body. And Chev has been visiting the coffin every night. 

As Ros’ days turn into nights of terror, the villa transforms into a house of horrors. It turns out that to inherit Lunthom's wealth, Chev has to stay beside the coffin for 100 days, or he will walk out empty-handed. Chev sweet-talked Ros into staying, as he wanted to shower her with wealth, and Ros reluctantly agreed. 

As the haunting gets physical, Ros wants to get rid of the ghost and Lunthom's coffin. But Chev won't let her exorcise the spirit. 

Will Ros get the life that she wanted? And will Chev be able to give her everything she wants?
