After being brutally murdered along with her family, Makina Hoshimura turns into a Shikabane Hime, a living corpse contracted to the Kougon Cult, in order to exert revenge on the mysterious undead organization responsible for her death. She is assisted in this task by Keisei Tagami, her contracted priest and former friend.

Synopsis 日本語

強い未練によって動く死体 - 屍（しかばね） - を狩る屍の少女たち、それが屍姫。彼女たちは「光言宗」の僧侶と契約を結び、屍を殺し続ける。彼女たちが屍を殺す理由、それは「光言宗」と結んだ3つの戒律（ルール）のため。その戒律とは、 108人の屍を殺せば天国へと行ける。 一度選んだら途中退場は出来ない。 たとえ殺されても文句は言わない。 人を殺す屍と、屍を殺す屍姫。両者の戦いは激しさを増していく。そして、屍姫とその契約僧たちの悲恋を描く。
