About The Haunted Cop Shop (1987) — When a thief becomes prey in a ghostly Hong Kong police station

Jacky Cheung headlines this quirky 1987 blend of comedy and horror from director Jeffrey Lau Chun-Wai, where a once-peaceful Hong Kong police station carries the weight of its violent past.

Built atop the ruins of a Japanese military club where officers took their lives on V-J Day, the station has long been rumored a haunted resting place. When petty thief Ming is locked in its basement during Ghost Festival—when spirits walk the earth—the Colonel's vengeful ghost bites him, transforming him into a bloodthirsty vampire. Lighthearted antics collide with chills as Ming navigates his new nocturnal nature, all against the eerie backdrop of a building steeped in history and sorrow.
