The heart fights mind

In this episode of s.o. Terrors, host Takoda takes us through an eerie story set in Japan where protagonist Yuichi and his neighbors wake up in their apartment complex covered by a strange fog believed to originate from Mount Fuji.

As the plot thickens, creepy beings seem to be drawn to human fear appearing in the fog, and Yuichi must discover how the frequency of the heart can act as a weapon against them.
