Ever wondered what life is like as a shaman?
Enter the world of shamans with Viu through the documentary series Shaman: Whispers from the Dead. From a woman haunted by mysterious nocturnal presences in her bedroom to a shaman’s daughter suffering from “sinbyeong,” an undiagnosed illness caused by resisting the gods’ call, each episode of the docuseries gives viewers a glimpse into the exorcism rituals and spiritual practices of Korean shamans.
Spanning just 8 short episodes, Shaman invites viewers to experience spine-tingling encounters with malevolent spirits, forbidden ceremonies, and the chilling interventions of shamans confronting the supernatural. What better series to watch during the Hungry Ghost Festival (at least for horror buffs!)?
Join hosts Yoo Ji Tae and Ok Ja Yeon as they talk to different shamans to learn about long-standing ancient traditions and delve into truly unsettling stories that will keep you on the edge of your seat this 7th lunar month.
