Episode description
In the dark of the night in old China, one might bear witness to a frightening sight: a procession of Taoist priests escorting the bodies of the dead. But these bodies aren’t in caskets, they are moving, hopping along under the guidance of the priests. The sounds of bells and gongs signal their coming, and everyone hides from the parade of the undead, lest they fall victim to a vampiric corpse. Join us tonight as we investigate the grisly legend of the Jiangshi on this necromantic episode of Snipe Hunt.
