People will always talk in terror about the legendary cat-faced woman, but no
one knew of the deep sorrow and resentment that hid beneath the surface of
that cold, stiff, bent body. Regarded as a liar and a cheat, she suffered
quietly through the hunger, cold and loneliness, and calmly welcomed the end.
However, for the village, the nightmare has just begun. During midnight, in
the raging blizzard, she turned into a puppet manipulated by dark evil
spirits, gouging out every seemingly innocent heart and tasted the sins hidden
within.

## The Witch
Having inherited the ancestral skills of the Northeastern people, she became a
revered witch. Countless people came to her for help, for exorcisms and
blessings. She was awed by this, but it also brought her a lifetime of
misfortune. Her life was rough and lonely. She was widowed, and all her
children left. She adopted wild cats for company, but the villagers regarded
the black cats she had taken in as a symbol of misfortune, and began to regard
her differently in the village, which further isolated her.
Finally, in the snowy night of New Year’s Eve, the tortured life of the witch
came to an end, while the nightmare of the village was quietly coming to life.

## The Frozen Village
The snowstorm raged throughout the night, at daybreak the snowy ground was
covered in the mottled scarlet of firecracker debris and dried-up blood. The
northern wind swept through with what felt like a folksong or spell
incantation woven within, and a shrill cat cry pierced through the lonely
silence of the night. The hunched figure stumbles into the snow and wind, the
black cat’s eyes bent over its shoulders flashed fiercely with vengeance. No
one is innocent, it seeks, thirsting, to disembowel them all, gouge out their
hearts and savor every moment of pain and fear.
