While Mae Nak's ghost protects the couple from an unscrupulous real estate agent as well as a pair of burglars, it bercomes apparent that she expects a terrible favour in return. Mak, the young groom, is incapacitated by a powerful coma, and his bride Nak must exhume Mae Nak's corpse from its hidden grave so that the skull can be restored using the antique brooch. Only in this way can Mae Nak's spirit finally be set free."

Ghost of Mae Nak was released theatrically in Thailand by Box Office Entertainment Co. Ltd. on September 15th.
