On New Year’s Eve, a bitter and self-destructive man is forced to confront the life he has wasted when he comes face to face with a terrifying legend: the last person to die before midnight must drive Death’s ghostly carriage and collect the souls of the dead for the year ahead.

The Phantom Carriage (Körkarlen) is a haunting silent masterpiece about death, guilt and redemption — combining supernatural horror with striking imagery and an emotional story that still feels remarkably powerful more than a century later.
