👀 SPOILER-FREE SUMMARY

Conan delivers one of its classic multi-part mystery setups with a horror-tinged twist. The premise drops Kogoro, Ran, and Conan into a remote cottage tied to a zombie film, then raises the stakes by reuniting them with Heiji and Kazuha — always a signal that the case ahead has real teeth. Expect the signature blend of creepy atmosphere and comedic relief as the location's unsettling history collides with a film crew's arrival. The pacing leans into slow-burn tension, layering eerie details and character dynamics before the central mystery fully crystallizes. This is a Part 1, so the episode prioritizes setup: establishing the setting, assembling the cast, and seeding just enough unease to guarantee you'll want the next installment. A strong opening chapter for fans of Conan's horror-adjacent cases.

🔥 KEY MOMENTS

⚠️ Spoiler Alert!

Unexpected Reunion at the Cottage

Kogoro, Conan, and Ran arrive at the secluded zombie-movie cottage only to bump into Heiji and Kazuha, who are already on-site chasing down a local zombie legend. The dual-detective setup kicks in immediately.

The Broken-Neck Zombie Account

A terrified couple recounts how they hit a figure with a grotesquely broken neck near the cottage — and it kept moving. Their story gives the zombie legend unsettling physical evidence and sets the episode's creepy tone.

Film Crew Descends

A production team rolls in to shoot a trailer for the zombie movie's sequel, turning the already eerie location into a chaotic set full of potential suspects and conflicting motives.

Producer Harawaki Vanishes

Mid-shoot, producer Harawaki goes missing without explanation. The search through the cottage ratchets up tension as fiction and reality start bleeding together.

Body Discovery

Conan and Heiji find Harawaki's corpse inside the cottage, confirming the zombie legend has been masking something far more dangerous. The case officially shifts from urban legend investigation to a locked-location murder mystery.

📍 ARC CONTEXT

This episode launches a three-part arc — 'A Cottage Surrounded by Zombies' — following the standalone 'The Mysterious Boy' case. It pairs Conan with Heiji, a combination the series reserves for its meatier investigations, and sets the foundation for Parts 2 and 3 where the zombie cottage mystery deepens and resolves.
