Sotaro runs a small drinking establishment called Kazusaya in Yokohama. A kind and loving man, he sincerely promises his wife, Shizuko, on her deathbed he will never marry again. But he is being buckled by his brother's pressure to consider an arranged marriage with a lovely young woman named Satoko. When Sotaro comes to know that Satoko is also interested in him, he agrees to the marriage. In the meantime, Shizuko returns as a ghost haunting the scared couple. Sotaro, being fed up with this obstacle, consults a priest. The priest lends Sotaro a special scroll that acts as a door to the world of the dead and a trap for Satoko, but unfortunately, a thief steals the scroll.
